JUDGE C. C. HINES DEAD HB WAS AT ONE TIME GENERAL HARRISON'S LAW PARTNER. He Und Recently Couie from the East to Visit Ills Son, Fletcher S. llin.es Sketch of His Life. Judge Cyrus C. Hines, of New York, father of Fletcher S. Hines, and formerly one of the best known members of th Marlon county bar and for several years Judge of the Circuit Court, died yesterday shortly before noon at the Deaconess Hospital. He suffered from complications induced by a stroke of apoplexy several years ago. He had been here visittng his son and was taken to the hospital on the day bet for his departure for his summer residence near Ludlow, Vt. At no time was there much hope of his recovery. The funeral service will be held at St. David's Church to-morrow. The hour of the services and the names of the pallbearers will be announced to-day. Judge Hines was born in Washington county, New York, Dec. M. 1S30. When quite young and after the death of his father he removed, with his mother and two brothers, to Lonsdale, R. I. There he worked for several years In the cotton mills, and then spent two years In studying, and later taught for two years in the Normal Institute at Lancaster. He came to Indianapolis in 1S54, and at once began reading law in the ofhec of Simon Yandes. with whom he entered into partnership in December, 1S55, after being admitted to the bar, and this partnership was continued until 1S60, when Mr. Yandes retired from active practice. He then formed a partnership with Upton J. Hammond, and continued the law practice under the ttrm name of Hines & Hammond. On April 19, at the outbreak of the civil war, he enlisted in the Eleventh Indiana olunteers as sergeant of Company H, but after getting into the held he was detailed as orderly to Gen. T. A. Morris, and later was promoted to a captaincy, and as such served as an aid on the staff of General Morris. At the expiration of his enlistment and the West Virginia campaign. In which he participated, he returned to Indianapolis. In August. lv;2, he was commissioned major of the Twentyfourth Indiana Volunteers, with which he served until February, 1S!, when he was given a commission as colonel of the Fiftyseventh Indiana Volunteers. This regiment was one which had been recruited mainly through the efforts of a preacher named McMullen, and was made up, for the most part, of preachers and professional men. Tljey were wholly tindrilled, and after several months In the service were hardly more than "raw" recruits. Colonel Hines had ideas of his own as to how a regiment should be managed, and these ideas he put into practice, at flrst much to the dislike of the members of the regiment, but afterwara he was recognized as an efllcient officer and held in high regard by them. On Dec. 31. Itf2, he was wounded in the battle of Stone River, betng shot through the leg, and was picked up from the battlefield by Dr. W. B. Fletcher, who had walked to the battlefield from Louisville. His injury incapacitated him for active service, and he resigned Aug. 28, 1863. RESUMED PRACTICE OF LAW. He returned to Indianapolis, and in May, lf'66, resumed the practice of law with his former partner. Upton J. Hammond, and Livingston Howiand, who afterwards became judge. In October, 1S66, he was elected to the office of Judge of the Judicial circuit composed of Marion, Hendricks and Johnson counties, and in this position served until 1S70, when he resigned. In that year William P. Fishback, who had been a member of the firm of Porter, Harrison & Fishback, retired from the partnership Judga Hines had been invited to take his place, and for this reason he resigned. He had succeeded Judge Coburn as judge of the Circuit Court and was succeeded by Jude Tarkington. Mr. Porter retired from tho firm In 1S73. and the firm was composed of General Harrison and Judge Hines until late in 174. when W. H. H. Miller, who cp me here in that year from Fort Wayne, was taken In as a partner. In 1SS3 John B. Elam was admitted as a partner, and In the following year Judge Hines retired and took charge of the affairs of a brother In New York. The brother died in 165, leaving a large estate, which necessitated a residence of the executor in New York, and Judge Hines removed to that city, which he afterwards made his home, in having settled up the affairs of the estate, he retired from active business. The law firm with which he was so intimately connected was a notable one. and those connected with It achieved high positions. Mr. Fishback. the flrst to retire, was editor of the Indianapolis Journal, and later had charge of the St. Louis Demotrat; Mr. Porter afterward became Governor of Indiana; Mr. Miller became attorney general of the United States and Grneral Harrison became the chief executive of the Nation. Judge Hines in politics was a Republican, and although he was an earnest supporter of the principles which that party represented, he was never known as an active worker. His election to the bench, it was said, marked the change from the old-time radical methods of procedure on the part of Judges In this district to the new era when Judges conducted the affairs of their office more in keeping with the law than previously. He was able. It was said, to hear impartially the evidence in cases and decided without favor. It was often sa4d he could have tried in full justice to the law members of his own family. ' HAD A GREAT FACULTY. He bad a faculty of analysis which led him at once upon hearing the facts to take up the side of right, and this faculty made his partnership with General Harrison one of great Interest. In cases which were brought to them the members of 'the Arm would sit around the office and virtually try the cases there, Judge Hines Invariably arguing from the point of view which he thought was right, and thus bringing out the fighting points of both contestants. He was unusually well-read generally, and was known as one of the best chancery lawyers in the State. He made a special study oZ
the old English rules of pleadings and gave more attention to this than most lawyers. In his army ervlce he was firm and exacting, but always just. During the long marches In the war he reversed the usual practice of putting the taller men at the Iror.t. and let the smaller men. with shorter legs, set the pace, and thus prevented the usual straggling so common to weary troops. He was a small man, but could not be intimidated. One time when another officer of his division came back and began swearing at his men Col. Hines resented the act, and said he would report the officer and that if the higher officers would not take action -he would attend to the offender himself. He was very unassuming and ecldom told stories of his army or business life, but occasionally would get into the mood and then one of his favorite tales was of how he had sent a man to the guardhouse when he could hardly refrain from laughing before his men. It was during inspection and he found a rifle which was not clean. He told the soldier to report to the guardhouse and was greatly amused when the soldier innocently asked: "Yoii don't mean it, do you colonel?" Judge Hines was twice married and both times to daughters of Calvin Fletcher.
sr. His second wife. Lucy, survives him. He haves but one son, Fletcher S. Illnes, of this city. He suffered a stroke of paralysis in isr0 and this is said to have been material in hastening his death by Inducing other complications. He visited here every year and came bre a month ago. He was preparing to leave for his summer residence, near Ludlow, Vt., on a part of the Fletcher homestead, when he was taken ill and on the oay set for his departure became so ill that he was removed to the Deaconess Hospital.

JAMES A. MARSHALL MAY BE INDICTED FOR BIGA.MY. In the Clrcnit Court lie? Lose Ilia Second Wifeother Cases la the Court. Judge Allen, of the Circuit Court, yesterday annulled the marriage of Pearl Ensley to James A. Marshall, also known as Charies Marshall. The girl, who is twenty years old, met Marshall on the street one evening. He represented to her that he was a ranch owner of Wyoming and was on hi way to New York with eight carloads of cattle. He asked the girl to marry him. saying he had a home In Wyoming that was big enough for both of them and her mother. The mother and daughter talked it over and finally thought the offer was a good proposition, and the couple were married. Soon after the marriage Marshall left his wife, but returned again, saying he had been in Buffalo. She became suspicious and finding a letter In his pocket addressed to "Charles Marshall, East Michigan street," sent the letter with his photograph by a friend to the number to investigate. The result was that another Mrs. Marshall was discovered. She identified the photograph as that of her husband and said he had been absent three weeks. Iater, the second wife applied for an annulment of the marriage In the Circuit Court. In annulling the marriage Judge Allen said Marshall should be Indicted by the grand jury for bigamy. A.N IMPORTANT DECISION. It Affects the Employers Liability Act Case Reversed. The Supreme Court yesterday, through Judge Francis E. Baker, decided that the Legislature is Justified, in the exercise of police power, in enacting laws throwing special safeguards around the lives and limbs of those who are exposed to dangerous agencies in the hands of others. The case decided was that of the Indianapolis Union Railway against John J. Houlihan. Houlihan's judgment of $15.ono was reversed because the court at Lebanon permitted him to testify that the sum of $25 paid him by the railway company was a present, when a contract had been Introduced In evidence showing that the money was paid to and received by Houlihan In satisfaction of any claim for damages he might have against the railway company.
