TO THE BOARD OF TRADE.
Ertito- of The Tribune.
Sir: In this evening's Truth I noticed
the offer of a site on Adams avenue for a
roam of trade building, and It occurred
, me at once that the board should he
Ip'.ated on a site that wUI eventually bene.
IM the neighborhood in which It Is. From
all mmors I learn the site Is llkelv tn h.
on louden street, opposite the court house;
a promising thoroughfare that from Its
surroundings and contemplated Improve
ment will soon enhance greatly In value
. Now s the board Is 4n existence for the
purpose of protecting and building up gen
eral Interests, then It la Its Incumbent
duty to select a site In a neighborhood
mat is consistently convenient and that
needs Its stimulating Influence. -
Why not consider Lackawanna avenue-,
between Washington and Adams avenues?
A site on Fuller'! corner would tend to
extend Lackawanna avenue one block
more and have a much needed stimulus
on both sides of the street, I have no lots
for sale, no friends to represent, no com
missions to make. In fact no axe to grind
but the general welfare. I think the board
should Drat consider the benefits It can
extend to the many before figuring put
how great; the Interest on the Invested
capital of the few. Yours respectfully ,
-" ". " Samuel Samter.

Brings the Jeislags Case to the
Atteatioa of the Supreme Court
HIS KEMAKKABLE IMSTITIOX
Wants to Compel the PreaUlont Judg '
This County to Melea'se Jennings
on Ills Own KesognUance-llo Ke
hashes All of the Old Charges.
The petition of John a. Jennings, filed
In the supreme court of Philadelphia
day before yesterday. Is the most ex
traordinary document ever presented
to any court In the commonwealth. It
k one of the Incidents of the celebrated
case of Jennings' attain! the Lehigh
Valley Railroad company. It will be
tvmenrbered that a f'W week aw.
when the case was called for trial. uMr.
Smith made something of a sonsatlonby
reiterating certain charge' h aJ n",Jl
aalnst Mr. KuMKin. the diputy pro
thonotary. with reference to the aelec
tlon of the Jury.
President Judge ArVMmlil asked him
to prove the charges he h:id
made and
be without
ever. The
In writing
they were shown to
any foundation what
alU'gatlon.i were ' made
and under oath by
John O. Jennl-i:?. At the conclusion
of the hearing 'Mr. Jenniiv;r wa held
to ball to answer the charge of perjury.
The present proceedings In the supreme
court conrtPt of a petition asking that
court to Issue a nvimtumus to compel
the pre.-ldV'!.t Jude of t'hls county to
discharge 'Mr. Jenniigs upon his ttwn
recognizance, and to command the
pit sldent judge to order and direct
seme quallrltil and disinterested mm
to draw the Jury at the next trial of
the case, further commanding him to
order and direct that the deputy pro
thonoMry. Kninm, shall mot have any
thing to do, or be crpaged in any way
with the drawing of the Jury.
Cliarxc Against Kvcrvhodv.
This pt'tKlon, which Is made u part
of tne proceeding in the supreme court,
contains charge asalnirt everybody,
tviarly. In connection with this cele
brated case.
It Is charged thmt Mr. Hurna, one if
the attorreys for 'the defendant, solicit
ed and procured many of the olllclals if
the court cf this couoty to 'form with
hiTi an unlawful combination for the
puipo-e of defeating the plaintiff. It
Ft la that this first combination was
mi'de with-the sheriff, who was Induced
to make a fa!.- and improper return of
thi? rervlce of the summons. It Is said
thtt the eomfMr.e, In their efforts to de
feat the plaintiff, procured some un
known person to go to the city hospital,
having Instructed the unknown person
t represent to the doctors that he was
James Jennings, and that he wus In
jure i In the Mud 'Run disaster, and to
have liimselif examined and afterward
to mak? declarations to the doctors to
defeat the plaintiff's 'Jetton.
This. It alleged, was done. It Is al
leged that said Burns solicited and pro
cured from the late Judge Connolly an
agieement to Immediately ret aside any
verdict whfch the Jury might render In
f ivor of the pii iVtiff ; that the Jury hav
ing rendered a verdict in the sum of
3,C00 In favor of the plaintiff, the trial
Judge Immediately ret it aside; that the
verdict was unlawfully set aflde, and
thereafter the combine of Burns and
the officials of the court directed their
effxrts to defeat the action of the plain
tiff by means of packl'r. the Jurors;
that the county detective was employed
t tlx-jurors at their homes, and that
the deputy prothonotary was procured
to draw the Juror." In such a way as to
select only those that had previously
been fixed.
Charge Against Mr. Knsson.
There Is a plain, square charge
against Mr. Kasson of having packed
the Jury upon several occasions; that
the president judge of the court gave
the petitioner and his counsel no' op
portunity to produce their evidence to
prove the charges contained in the pe
tition, not even giving the petitioner
time to be sworn before he was called
before the court to make his statement
to shew upon what ground he made
the affidavit.
Mr. Jennings asks the supreme court
to be discharged upon his own recognl
ance. first, because the court had no
lawful authority to make the order, sec
ond, the plaintiff could not be held to
bail to answer a charge of perjury until
the case wherein the alleged perjury
has 'been committed Is finally term
inated. In the argument attached to this ex
traordinary paper Mr. Smith reiterates
a great many of his charges which
were thoroughly investigated and
proven to be without foundation. It
speaks of Mr. Kasson's action as ad
mltedly criminal; says that the agree
ment with the late Judge Connolly to
set aside any Verdict for the plaintiff
might be found as a matter of record,
whereas. It not only is not of record,
but was thoroughly disproved at the
hearing had with reference to these
charges several months ago.
With reference to the action of the
president Judge at the last term, It In
timates that he was partial In his rul
ings, and that Mr. J linings could not
get justice at his - hand. The argu
ment concludes as follows:
' Mr. Smith Grows Eloquent.
"After a contest for six long years.
with repeated fraud and crime, this
combination has not only succeeded In
holding the case at the point of begin
ning, but in landing. the unfortunate
plaintiff at the very door of the penlten
Itary. The admitted crimes of Mr.
Kasson, whose facilities to commit is
equalled only In his security In com
mitting strkes at the foundation of law
and justice. These we iv.ust defend, or
perish."

Armed with a Requisition Chief Simpson

Police Simpson, armed with the requisi
tion, papers tecelved from Governor
Hastings the day before, started for
