l‘he Litigation In the Case of Hilton
Vfigsus Guyot.
VICTORY FOR THE FORMER.
the Matter Decides the Value of Judg-
ments Obtained Against Americans
In Foreign Courts—History of
the Celebrated Case.
WASHINGTON. June 4.-—-In the supreme
court today Justice Gray announced the
decision of the court in the case of Henry
Hilton and others versus Guyot, liquidator
of the estate of Fortine & 00., involving
the validity of foreign judgments, rovers-
lng the decision Of the court below and re-
manding the case for trial in the circuit
court of the southern district of New
York. Chief Justice Fuller and Justices
Harlan, Brewer and Jackson dissented.
the court then standing 5 to 4, the major-
lty being Gray, Field, Brown, Shiras and
White. Justice Gray also announced the
decision in the Ritchie case affirming the
decision of the court below.
The case of Hilton and Libbey versus
Guyot involved the validity of judgments
rendered by foreign courts against Ameri-
can citizens, and it is understood that a
large number of claims of a character sim-
ilar to that prosecuted by Guyot, involving
many millions of dollars in amount, have
been held in abeyance until the conclusion
of the court in this case should be made
known. The case does not properly belong
to the present term of the court. It was
twice argued during the term of 1893-4,
but no conclusion was announced by the
court prior to the adjournment of that
term, and it has remained " undecided
through this term and until today.
Guyot appears in the case as the liqui-
dator of the French firm of Charles Fortinc
Sc 00., formerly glove manufacturers of
. Perla. and Messrs. Hilton ,& Libbey as the
successors of A. '1‘. Stewart & Co. of New
York.
History of the Case.
The history of the case goes back to
. 1890. and that of the transactions on which
it is based to 1850, when the house of
Stewart & 00. entered upon an agreement
with one Alexandre, the predecessor of
Fortine & Co., to take from the French
house all the gloves manufactured by them
for the' American market, the two estab-
lishments to share both the profit and the
loss of the business. In 1880 this agree-
ment was brought to a close by a misun-
derstanding and mutual charges of bad
faith. The French firm brought suit in
the tribunal of commerce of the Seine,
when the case was decided in favor of
Fortine & 00., and from which decision it
Was appealed by Stewart & Co. to the
Paris court of appeals, when the decision
was also antagonistic to Stewart & 00.,
the final judgment in the French courts
fixing the amOunt of the indebtedness of
the New York house to the French firm
at $195,122, with interest.
Before the final decree was announced
Stewart 85 Co. closed their Paris estab-
lishment, and being unable to collect the
amount of the judgment in France For-
' tine & 00., in 1889, brought suit in the
United States circuit court for the south-
ern district of New York to compel collec-
tion on the French judgment. The de-
fendants filed a bill of discovery, alleging
counter claims and asserting that the
judgment of the French court was re-ex-
cminable. The decision was rendered by
Judge Wallace of the circuit court. He
dismissed the bill of discovery and ordered
that Stewart & Co. should pay the judg-
ment as in accordance with the finding of
the French courts. The case was appealed
to the United States supreme court in
1890. ‘ ' "
The case of Samuel J. Ritchie versus
James B. McMullin and George W. Mc-
Mullin, in error from the circuit court of
the northern district of Ohio, involved the
same questions as the Hilton ease except
that the judgment which it was sought to
have'afiirmod was rendered by a Canadian
court.

THE HARRINGTON MURDER.
Ex-Senator Buck’s Physicians Declare That
He Cannot Live.
SAN FRANCISCO, J uno 4.—-Ex-State Son-
ator Buck’s physicians say his death is
only a matter of a few hours. He was
taken into custody yesterday onsuspicion,
Harrington, who was found murdered in
her home on Ellis street Saturday. Buck
was driving to jail with an officer after
his arrest yesterday, when the horse-ran
away, and he was thrown out, fracturing
his skull. ' .
While the police will not say definitely
that they suspect Senator Back of the
murder, their actions lead to the belief
that they think he knows something about
it. Buck was a constant caller‘cn Miss
Harrington and is known to have taken
her driving and to several resorts, The
police say the murder was committed by
some one intimately acquainted with Miss
Harrington and her habits. Whoever com-
mitted the murdealet himself in at the
front door with a key. If Miss Harring-
ton let the man in, it was undoubtedly
some one with whom she was on intimate
terms. She was only partly dressed when
the murder was committed. The police
searched through the papers found in the
room in the hope of finding some clew.
When asked what the result of the search
had been, Captain Leos said he had found
certain evidence which he could not make
public at this time.
Owing to Buck’s prominence and the
tragic fate that bofcll him before he had
an opportunity to clear himself of suspi—
cion which has grown up against him or
explain his connection with Miss Harring-
ton. the murder has created a sensation
only exceeded by the Emanuel church
murders.

The German Cardinal Has Again
housed the Ire of Pope Leo.
WHAT CAUSEDTHs TROUB‘L}:
Hohcnlohe Is a Brother of the Chancel-
lor of the German Empire and May
Be a Very Important Factor In
Electing the Next Pope.
ROME, June 4.—-Thc sensation of the
hour in Rome is the new rupture between
Loo XIII and Cardinal Hohcnlohe. The
cardinal, who is the brother of the German
chancellor has long enjoyed the reputation
of being the most eccentric member of the
sacred college. He has always affected a
particularly independent attitude toward
the Vatican. In 1870 Bismarck had in-
tended to appoint his eminence to the post
of German ambassador to the holy see.
Pope Pius, however, whose‘relatiens with
the cardinal were strained, absolutely rc-
fused to have any official dealings with
him. Leo XIII is not muohinore favor- ”
ably inclined toward the cardinal than
was his predecessor. In 1885 his eminence
caused a scandal in the Catholic world by
publicly and defiantly going to call on
Dcellinger, the head of the “Old Catho-
lics. ” A few years later he set out for Ger-
many without thinking it necessary to at-
tend to the formality, exacted by papal cti-
quotte, of first asking the pope to grant
him leave of absence. Leo XIII was much
incensed by this Ofi‘ensc to‘ discipline, and
for over five years the doors of the pope’s
apartments at the Virtlcan were closed
against the cardinal.
The Cardinal’s Latest.
Leo XIII has been exasperated anew.
Some days ago the cardinal was indisoreet
enough to attend an Official banquet ten-
dered to Signor Crispi by the Italian min-
ister of foreign affairs, Baron Blane. At
this banquet he proposed the health of the
premier in most flattering terms.
On hearing what had happened, the pope
had a violent fit of anger. Next morning
he sent for the cardinal and bitterly ge-
preached him for his conduct, which the
holy father declared to be unworthy of a
prince Of the church.
The cardinal did his best to exonerate
himself, but Leo XIII would not listen to
his defense, and his eminence was ordered
to leave Home at once and makea month’s
retreat at a villa which he owns in God-
donabbla, near’ Lake Como. There he is
new meditating. .
The indignation of the pope is quite in-
telligible. for, despite the improvement in
the relations of the holy sec and Italy, the
Vatican effects to ignore the Quirinal offi-
cials. Nobody holding office at the Italian
court is ever received by his holiness. Un-
der these circumstances it was only nat-
ural that Cardinal Hohcnlohe’s blunder
should make a hubbub. Nothing of the
kind had occurred since 1870.
Hohcnlohe’s Importance.
Exceptional importance is, of course,
lent to the affair by the prominence of the
erratic cardinal’s position. Should Prince
Hohcnlohe remain chancellor—and even if
he should not—it is probable that his red
robcd brother will play a conspicuous part
in the election of the next pope.
At the coming conclave he will be the
spokesman of the Camden government and
consequently of the whole triple alliance.
In fact, it is tolernbly sure that he will try
to act as the grand elector at that gather»
ing. With Cardinal Galimberti and Car-
dinal Kopp, who is in high favor. in Bar-
lin, he may form a trio which will possi-
bly have great influence and almost cer-
tainly cont-rel the votes of the German,
Austrian and other members Of the sacred
college. ,
The date of the next consistory is still
uncertain, nor is it likely that it will be
held this month. Should it be delayed be-
yond it it will hardly be held until Decom~
ber. Leo XIII changes his mind so sud-
denly at times that it is rash to predict
anything about his plans. The odds, how-
ever, are that no new cardinals will be
created till the end of the year.
seems probable that, even if hcshould be
notified about his hat,before-—that he will
get it soon or late is certain—Mgr. Satolli
will remain at Washington till March.
Satolli to Get the Eat.
Leo XIII is much gratified at the suc-
cess of Mgr. Satclli’s efiorts to promote
concord in the church in the United
States. It is said that he sent the delegate
a letter quite recently expressing his satis-
faction.
Therc is~reason to believe that Mgr. Sa-
tolli was the dignitary whom Leo XIII'
nominated cardinal in pctto a few years
ago. The authority for this is one of, the
highest prelatos at the Vatican.
A most important discovery has 111‘
been made in the Vatican archives. A
number of documents of vital interest to
the history of the Catholic church have
been revealed. These documents embrace
a period extending from the pontificate of
Innocent III (A. D. 1198) to that of Beno-
dict XIV (A. D. 1758). They contain
lists of all the bishops appointed through-
out the Catholic world during the time in
question, over five centuries, together with
many other details of much moment. It
is proposed to publish them ere long.
Savants will watch for them. ’
The present prefect of the archives is
Cardinal Galimbertl. Leo XIII is much
gratified at the discovery.
