HELD NATURALIZATION COURT
Archbald, Gunster and Love Holding Common Pleas
Court Judge Gunster Also Sits in Equity and Quarter
Sessions Naturalization Court and a Hearing Before
a Commissioner.
Never before in the history of Lackawanna county was there .Mich
a quantity and diversity of couit as there was yesteiday. Eleven judges
an 1 enough lawyers to impoveiish a Cioesus, conducted or participated
in seven different kinds of sessions.
The Superior com t, with seven niembei s present, including Judges W.
W. Porter, V. D. Porter and Dimner Beebei, newly commissioned, be
gan a two weeks' session of appellate court in the Superioi comt room.
Judge.-. Archbald, Gunster and Edwards held an hour's session of
what is virtually argument court, receiving motions and hearing argu
ments on the same. Judce Archbald, in the main court room; Judge
Gunster in court room No. 2, and Judge John G. Love, of Bellefonte, in
the arbitration room, opened a three weeks' session ot common pleas
Judge Gunster, upon taking his seat in couit room No 2, sat first as a
qtnrter sessions' judge, conducting natuialiation court and hearing the
lenoit of the "I and iuiy and then took up the equity case of Caray
against Jenkins, which was continued from last week-,
ot this he assisted in disposing of the civil list.
In one of the juiy 100ms on the thiul floor, J. W.
tm,r .k (nmniMinner. heard the continuation of the
Kdly impeachment pioceedings.
I-"iom a hk.il standpoint, the feature of the day in appellate court
w .is a briet disiiission ot the habeas corpus end of the Gibbons' con
tempt case, upon which Mr. Holgate endeavored to be heard, but
wlui h was set ovei until net Monday to come up with the certoiari
pioa-edingsin tli-same case. Hitting tribute was paid the memoiy of
the late Indue tfeedei in speeches by President Judge C. E. Rice and
Uturney Kusstll G Stuait, of the Northampton htr.
I'he leturii ot an ignored bill in the casc against Ignat Rosmo7
MKh, charged with complicity in the Austin Heights outrage, by which
Brikeman Unwell Inst his life, was the feature of the quartei sessions.

Cornelius Smith yesterday petitioned
court lor a change of venue In the
ejectment suit of Joseph Fellows, Coi
nelliiH Smith and others against F. K.
Loonils and others, alleging that the
Judues in this county ate piejudlced
upalnst him.
He lecltes In his petition that Judge
Aichbald promsed to certify the case
when It was reached on the trial list "n
the .Match term of ISIS, but failed to
do so. The et went ovei, and the
matter or a change of venue, 5Ir.
Smith alleges, wns lefeired by the
piesldent Judge to Judpe Hdvvards, but
he also failed to take any action. Xovv,
Mr. Smith lenews his petition, asking
that the case be eertllled to the presi
dent judpe of nn adjacent county.
Yesterdu morning Judge Aichbald
dismissed the petition with Ihe explan

repoits' show, 51 1. Stewart went on to
sav, his leioid as a lawyei and Judpe
were most lemarkable, but what will
be lemembeied most Is his unlimited
fileiidship and boundless charity.
When Mi. Stewait had finished, Judge
like, speaking for the niembeis of the
court, said they might well adopt all
that 5Ir. Stewait bad said, as their
own sentiment'. It wns fitting, hnw
iver, he said, that at the Hrst meeting
