Decision of the Supreme Court in the Habeas Corpus Casev—The Release of the Imprisoned Officials Ordered. A decision was renderedby the United States Su- preme Court this afternoon in the Virginia habeas corpus cases of Attorney-General Ayers and Com- monwealth Attorneys Scott and McCabe, who were imprisoned by order of Judge Bond, of the United States Circuit Court, for disobedience to a restraining order forbidding them to bring suit for the collection of taxes in, cases where tenders have been made of tax-re- ceivable coupons cut from State bonds. This court, ina very long and elaborate opinion by Justice Matthews, holds that the swt tn which Judge Bond issued the restraining order in the Circult Court, although nominally a suit against, individuals, 1s in reality a suit against the State of Virginia, and as such forbidden by the 11th amend. ment to the Federal Constitution; that the United States Circuit Court had, therefore, no authority ‘w entertain such sult; that In go doing and in ts. suing a restraining order to prevent the officers of the State from discharging their duties “under the laws of the State, Judge Bond was acting without constitutional wasrant, and eee ee sui u arrest and. imprisonment of the petidoners “were Megal and without authority. court, there- fore, directs that the petitioners, Atworney Gen- eral’ Ayers and Commonwealth's ‘Attorneys Scott and McCabe, be at once discharged. ‘The opinion, which is that of the whole court, with the ex- ception, “of Justice, Harlan, who dissents, sustains the State of Virginia at points, and virtually declares that a State, asa political sovereignty, cannot be sued’ nor coerved in the federal cou eituer by an action brought against by name or by an action brought officers in thelr official capacity. The court de- clares that the eleventh amendment establishes a distinction between contracts made by individuals with each other and contracts made by individuals with a State, ‘The latter class cannot be enforced by the remedies used to enforce the former—that is, by suits in the U. § Courts—and they there fore are Without sanction except in so far as such sanction is given to them by the honor and good faith of the cont State, Such Stave Consent to be sued In Its own courts or in the fed. eral courts for breach of contract,but itmay at any time withdraw such consent and resume its sov- AT THE CAPITOL TO-DAY.

Senator Daniels was made a cided favorite inthis » bis desk and chair being literally covered and surrounded with magnificent designs On the desk was a mam- moth floral shield, bearing on its front the coat- of armsof V! ‘There were also three very large horseshoes wrought in flowers and ever- greens and each having a basket of handsome flowers pendant from the center of the arch. A lad- der of fame com of flowers and buds of differ- ent varieties: on the topmost round the words U. S. Senate. There were also several large baskets of the very cholcest flowers, besides smaller baskets and bouquets, It was remarked by some Of the old attaches of the Senate that in size and quantity and beauty, the floral offerings to Senator Daniel exceeded anything of ‘Uhe kind hitherto sent to a Senator. ‘To Senator Faulkner was sent a chair made of blue, pink, and purple immortelles with a card attached extending the compliments of Mrs. C. B. Johnson, and adding, “Take a seat, Senator, we will give you turee chairs.” Seaator Turpie was remeinbered with a large basket of choice flowers; Senator Beck received a bunch of cut flowers; Senator Voorhees a li basket of flow- ers with evergreens intermingled and a boquet; Senator Gorman a horseshoe resting upon an easel; Senator Blackburn a basket of flowers; Senator Payne two baskets of flowers and buds; Senator Riddieberger “a harp or Erio” from the Clan-na-gael of Pulladelphia; Senators Mitchell, Platte, Palmer, Davis, Cullom, and Manderson each a basket Of flowers; Senator Stewart two baskets, and Senator Paddock a boquet of cut lowers. MRS. CLEVELAND AND HER QUESTS. Just at 12 o'clock those seated in the aisle lead- ing to the President’s reserved bench were re- quested to make way, and Mrs, Cleveland, accom- anled by Mrs, Folsom, Mss Kingsford, MissSever. ance and Mrs. Glider, of New York, and her two little boys, entered and took seats. Meantitie several of the Chinese delegation, Baron Struve and several of his suite entered thé diplomatic gallery and took seats, Ina very few moments the remaining seats in that gallery were ‘occupled by ladies who were permitted access toll, CALLED TO ORDER. On the stroke of 12, with one tap of the gavel, President pro tempore Ingalls called the Senate to order, and after prayer by the chaplain, Rev. Dr, Butlep, he proclaimed the Senate of the Fiftieth Congress formally tn session. ‘The clerk Was then directed toread the certif- cates of election, appointnents and other papers received by the ’ president pro tempore since the adjournment of Congress 1ast March. CREDENTIALS PRESENTED. ‘The following papers were thereupon submitted and read: Certificate of the governor of Florida making temporary appointment of J. J. Finlay as Senator from 4th March, 1887, until the legisla- ‘ure should fill the Vacancy caused by the expira- Uon of the term of Senator Jones. Certificate of ‘the governor of Florida of the election by the legis- lature of Samuel Pasco, Certificate of the gover- nor of New Jersey of the election of Rufus Blod- gett. Certificate of the governor of West Virginia Of the appointment by lim of Daniel B, Lucas to fill the Vacancy cause by the expiration of the term or Senator Camden, Certificate of the gov- ernor of West Virginia of a summary of tue pro- ceedings by Which the legislature, 1n special ves. Sion, elected Chas. J. Fuuikner_as Senator to ill the-yacaucy. Credentials of Wm. E. Chander as Senator froth the State of New Hampshire. ‘THE WEST VIRGINIA PROTEST. Protest of Daniel B. Lucas against the adminis- tration of the oath of office to Chas. J. Faulkner. ‘The grounds of the protest are: First, That the ex- ecutive of the State of West Virginia has not cer- Ufled the election of Chas J. Faulkner under the seal a8 y ongress. Second, For reasons set out in the brief or Daniel B. Lucas, a copy of which accompanied the pro- vest. Third, Because Chas J. Fauikner was at the Ume and dite of his election, on May 3th, Judge of the 13th judicial district of West a, and therefore ineligible to the office of Senator. The protest was laid on the table and ‘ordered to be prinied in the Record. ‘THE CEREMONY OF ADMINISTERING THE OATH of office to the newly-elected Senators was then proceeded with, such Senators being called in Parties of four, and in alphabetical order. The first four Senators thus called and sworn (in all instances with uplifted hand and not on the Bible were Messrs, Aldrith, Bate, Blodgett and ‘Chandler. ‘The second four were Cockrell, Daniel, Davis and Dawes. The third four called were Edmunds, Faulkner, Ceorge und Gorman. ‘OBJECTED TO SWRARING IN MR. FAULKNER. Mr. Hoar objected, for the time beng, to admin- istering the oath of office to Mr. Faulkner. He understood that, whatever question arose con- cerning the title of that Senator to a seat arose on the credentials themseives—the whole proceedings Of the legislature and the iistory of the case being there disclosed and fully recited. Assuming that, in accordance with the usages of the Senate, he would himself be a member of the committee on privileges and elections, he gave the assurance that the question should’ be dealt with at the ear- Hest possible moment, so that the gentleman en- Utled Lo the seat would be able to enter upon the discharge of his duties without unnecessary delay. Senator Kenna sald that the course suggested seemed eminently appropriate, and he trusted that that action would be taen without the formality of a vote, which was done. MR. TURPIE SWORN 1, ‘The oath was administered to Mr. Turple, of I1 diana, and he was admitted to his seat. ‘All the papers in the case were referred to the committee ‘On privileges and elections. At 10 o'clock probably half the seats in the House galleries were taken, and many members and strangers were on the floor.

A large Placque of roses and pinks, with “Labor's cham- pion” written in Violets upon Its face, was placed ‘on the desk Frank Lawler used to occupy, but the owner was not there, or was id behind the pres; ent.

Some of the Old members were ashamed to sit behind their ponderous presents. On the roll 313 members answered to their names, and the clerk announced that more than a quoruta being present the next business in order was THE ELECTION OF 4 SPEAKER. John G. Curlisie, democrat, was put in nomina- tion by Mr. Cox, of New York, and Thomas B.

Whatever is done apust be done here, and if nothing 1s done the re- sponsibility must rest here. 1t must be evident to every one Who has taken even a partial survey of public affairs that the time has now come when a revision of our revenue laws and a reduction of taxation are absolutely Recessary In order to prevent a lange and dau- gerous sccumulation of money in the Treasury. Whether this ought or ought not to have been done heretofore is & question wich it would be useless now to discuss.

How an Understanding was Reached Between the Democrats and Republi cans, During the reading of credentials and papers ap- pertaining thereto in the Senate to-day Senators moved about the Moor, exchanging greetings, and the hum of conversation almost drowned the voice of the reading clerk. The galleries, packed to every foot of sitting and standing room, imitated ‘the example set by the Senators and swelled the hum of voices by general conversation. ‘The read- Ing of credentials was (oo dry a proceeding to tp- ‘Uerest people who had assembled to listen to mat- ters of a more exciting nature. From one of tbe niches in rear of the Senators’ reserved gallery a ‘bust of John C, Calhoun solemnly surveyed the scene, as if admonishing the members of the highest legislative branch to re member their dignity, and avoid unseemly squab- bling.
