The SupFeme Coart Refuses to

1 Gfnera) gatinfaction Aotong the Peo-
ple.
The supreme court this moming rendered! its decision in the case of William E. Merrick, Judge Biddle delivering the opinion. The lower court is sustained and he will be hanged to-morrow. There is now nothing but executive clemency that can save him. The action of the supreme court in this case gives great satisfaction, as there was for a time a wide-spread fear that on some technicality he, as well as Guetig, might be given a new trial with a chance to escape the penalty of his cold-blooded and inbnman murder. The opinion of the court
is as follows:
CRIMINAL LAW—XURDEB—PEACTIC*, BTC. 7806. William Merrick vs. the state. From the Marlon criminal court. Cause affirmed. Biddle, J. The appellant was indicted tor the murder ol Julia Merrick, tried, convicted and sentenced to deatb. The indictment contains two counts, each eount charging murder In the first degree. The tint eount charged the killing to have been don* by administering poison; the second, by indicting certain mortal wounds. On motion tor a new trial ’ seventy-two causes were assigned therefor, but as toe evidence, to whleh the instructions given and refused had rwferepcf, and upon which the conviction was had, fs not before us, but few questions are raised thereby. Such questions as are properly presented by the record, and dlscUaeed on behalf of the appellant, wLl be noticed la the order of the proceedings. (1.) U wqs not neceeeary to aver in the indictment that Julia Merrick was “a human belna.” The name imports a ufficient. Evidence was
THX ACHEY PKTlTlONXfaBt A Fotliag That Oov. Williams Will Mo* Intorfsra. The governor has been besieged in his oflee all the morning and afternoon by persons interested in the eommutatioa of Aehey'p sentence from death by the gallows to-mor-row to imprisonment for life, or at least a postponement of the execution. The signers to the petition for executive clemency are not as numerous as have been reported. The governor, in answer to the question of a Sews reporter this afternoon as to their number, opened a bundle tied with a string and took there* from 16 blank books which had bean used for obtaining these signatures. The highest number of names in any of the books was one that held about 280, two or three had about 100 names each, while the other books held from 7 to 50. Bo that the entire number of signatares does not exceed 1,000. Tne two Misses McDowells, who a*e here, the oldest, Kate, is in St. Louis, were closeted with the governor for more than an hour, but got no promises of comfort in the ease of their uncle. The wife of the doomed man waited upon tbs governor this afternoon, but aa yet be has not expressed himself as to whether the law would take it* course or be would exerciae his prerogative and interfere. The feeling is that the governor will do nothing, but allow the sentence of the court to be car- ; ried out. THE UNION SERVICE. Prayer Meeting, Bible Reading and Gospel Service. Mr. Needham conducted the Monday meeting at the First Baptist church yesterday noon, taking for his scripture reading passages on the power of the snirit. Succeeding the presentation of requests for prayer a number of fervent prayers were offered. Announcement was made that hereafter any one desiring to er could do so in previous to the ding, in tne afternoon Hr. Needham Shirked his bible reading on “Peculiar People,” the three additional pointt introduced being the food, dress and hope of Christians. The evenipg service was well attended. considering the inclement weather. Mr. Needham kook as the text for his remarks the parable of the sower, as found in the 13th chapter of Matthew. The all-day services, beginning at ten and continuing to four were well attended, and characterized by great earnestness and solemnity. To-night Mr. Needham preaches, and to-morrow's services will be held at noon, fonr o’clock and at night.

THE CIPHERS.
jDaicmieui was noi uaa uecause u ana uoi aver the mortal wound made by cutting the womb " not done in a surgical operation,” For if It was directly averred the killing was done in performing a surgical operil ion, If done with-a purpose to kill and with pre-
t did not aver that
♦wae
etc. that
purpose to I |H
meditated malice as la this indictment it is averred, it would be sufficient. (4 Blackutooe, 897; 1 Wheaton’s Precedents, 114, 185 ) (S). There was no errok in overruling n w motion to compel the state to elect upon which eount in the indictment the appellant should he trie<r. Several felonies of the same class may be joined In the same Indictment In different counts. In this case both counts are for killing The same person, differing only in the manner in which the killing was done. (16 Ind 9; 36 Ind 406; 61 Ind 16.) (4) It Is within the discretion of the court in auch case to grant or refute a change of venue, and unless it appears that such discretion has been abused this court will not interfere.

BOW MKUUCK APPBABED. The ruling of the supreme court, affirming the judgment of the cnninal court was announced to Merrick by his spiritual advisers. Revs. Bayliss and f evis. He bad expressed such a strong belief that the court would {(rant him a new trial that it was expected that the announcement would quite upeet him. Instead of that, ho we ver,he bore it with remarkably equanimity, merely remarking, “Is that so? I am sorry.” He then passed into the private room with the reverend gentleman with whom he is again closeted this afternoon. He shows no sign of breaking up, and a confession is not looked for, unless at the very last moments. A Novel Defense. The case against Hamilton Bailie, for selling a short-weight load of coal, was submitted to Mayor €aven yesterday on an agreed statement of facts. The defense was that congress, which alone had the power, had never established a standard bushel for this country; that such being the caw the common haw of England governs; that the bushel there contains 2,150 42-100 cable iar cbes; that that bushel has been accepted by the state; that the bushel adopted by the council, containing 2,680 inches, is not sustained by law, and measures by that standard can not be entcroed. Mayor Caven took the quenon under advisement to decide whether the council has power to regulate the stand*: ard of measurement If he decides to the affiemative, a fine will be assessed and Mr. Bailie will appeal to the higher courts. The Bolan Trial. The second trial -of Patrick H. Bolan for the murder of Daniel Mahoney on the night of ihe ITth of March last, on . Washington street, in front of Hogahires shoe Store, began" In the criminal court yesterday afternoon. The defendant is represented by Major C. H. Blackburn of Cincinnati, and H. N. Spann, of this dty, his coonael on the former trial. Dp to the present writing the time has been spent .in impanBelling a jury at noon the defense had exhausted sixteen of their twenty challenges and the state three of its six. Bolao looks well, fa in good spirits *and confidentily expects mi acquittal.
j*va, v. ......eer county, were
present, and ha was represented by Mr. Humphries, of Green. After several hqurs discussion a report was agreed upon, the understanding ol the democrats being that it was satisfactory to the entire committee , But when the committee was called for its report this morning, there were two offered, the republican members recommending that
the bill do lie on the table.
The bill, as reported to the house this morning by the majority of the committee, upon the basis of th« late election as interpreted by the democrats, gives them thirty senators and sixty-two representatives. Mr. Overmeyer claimed that it would give the 194,000 democrats in the state thirty-three senators and sixty-six representa-. tivees; while the 227,(W0 republicans and nationals would have seventeen members and thirty-four representative*. The consideration of the bill, on motion of Major Gordon, was postponed, he pledging himself to vote for a fair apportionment when the subject came up for confideratien. The bill is tbe work of Governor Williams and Mr. Humphries, from Green county, and is a consolidation of the English and Humphries
bill.
A Lie. Tbe are who hrays so lustily about the ‘‘hypocritical Journal” In the above paragraph is the same who pleaded to hare hi* paper included te tbe terms of the bill requlrine the statements.of insurance companies to M published. If the law required the itatenicnts to bo published Id three papers It would bdan honest transaction, otherwise it should be denounced as a “steal,” which shows Just where the areas well as the ox was gesed.—fJournal. The above is a lie made out of whole cloth. No representative of The News ever spoke to a member of tbe legislature about the iosuraoce bill; except to Senator Harris, and the only suggestion made was that if such a bill was passed it should leave the placing of the advertising to the companies themselves. And that was when it was supposed the law would be bouestly carried out, and before the Journal with its partners got up the steal of patting the advertisements into two and three times the space necessary, thereby robbing the insurance companies under a stretch of law. They bad to drop one-third of the plunder, but the stealing still goes bn. Bupreme Court, The following cases were decided ta day: 6485. Hqch Gilchrist vs. Charles T. Gough et al. Henry ct C.

The New York Appotatmenta. [Washington special.] Thera is a difference of opinion as. to what the immediate result of no confirmation will be. The president has said that he will call an extern session, and has intimated that, hs will nomioate democrats. Mr. Evartfc .however, says he will not; and it is certain that « strong pressure will be brought to bear to prevent him from -glnShg the patronage of the New York customhouse to the democrats if he can help it, as that would mean tbs certain loss of ths state to the party. If be doea not call an extra session, the question fa who will hold the offices until congress regularly meets again—the president’s men, who are in, or Conkling’s men, who were the last appointees confirmed? The best authority seems to be that the president’s nominees will hold on until the end Of congress, and then the old incumbents, ConklingA men, go back to remain until congress meets again, when the president must send in entirely
new names.
