Fifty Barrels Lasted Court
47 Years.
Washington, D. C., Jan. 20.—
Aa interesting decision of the
United States Supreme court was
the closing of litigation over 50
barrels of whiskey, which has lasted
for 47 years. Forty.seven years
ago the suit between the govern
ment and Gaspard Theurer and bis
heirs, was instituted, and it has
dragged along, being reopened from
time to time, until the supreme
court decided this week that the
contest bad been forever ended by
the death of Tbenrer. The sail
was broegbt by tbs government to
condemn the whiskey as having
been illegally removed from a dis
tillery.
1 beurer lost the case, but was
granted an appeal to the supreme
court in 1870. He lost bis papers,
and after 30 years of apparent for
getfulness on the part of the gov
ernment, they sought to revive the
suit against the heirs of the estate.
