The United States Supreme Court s0 ruled today in an opinion rendered by Chief Justice Fuller, which directed that the jndg- ment of the United States circuit court for the notthern district of California, afirmed by the newly created circuit court of appeals for the Pacific const circuit, ordering that Lau Ow Bew be deported from the United States and returned to China, be reversed. Laa Ow Bew is a Chinese merchant who had resided in Portland, Ore., for seventeen yenrs’ prior to 1890." He was engaged in the wholesale and importing business, and, under Chong & Co., built up a business of 100.000 a year and w: worth about $40,000. In September, 1890, left the United States temporarily on'a visit to relatives in China Before de cured satisfactory evidence of merchant.

The case is one of the first ppeals taken under the recent court of ap- act. The Supreme Court first affirmed its jurisdiction and then said that some of the things required to be certified were abwu:d unless the section be construed to mean that Congress intended that the certificate should be procured only by Chinese residing in China or some other country and about to come to the United States for the first time. The court is status as a it him to remain that he had failed and obligations which persons assume by reason of domicile in a foreign country, says it is of opinion that it was not intended that commercial domicile should be forfeited by temporary absence at the domicile or origin, nor that resident merchants should be sub- jected to loss of rights guaranteed by treaty may have rendered it difficult As Lau Ow Bew is unlawfully re- strained of his liberty, the court directed the lower court to reverse ite judgment and dis- charge him from custod, not impossible THE COURT OF APPEALS BILL The Bar Association Kefuses to Reconsider Ite Action Approving It.

After long and somewhat painful illness, Mr. George W. Knox passed yesterd: afternoon at his residence, 803 K street. In his death the city has lost an energetic and successful business man and a large circle a genial and devoted friend. Mr. Knox's was in many respects s typical American career. He began life a poor boy and when he died at the age of sixty-three was at the head of a large and flourishing business, which had been built up by his industry, his ability and his enorgy. The express ana storage business which he organized has grown to such anextent that it is commonly spoken of as the Knox Express Company, although it was the pride of Mr. Knox that he was able to retain the business under his own management instoad of organizing a company. Mr. Knox was born “in Belgrade, Me., on the 4th of July, 1829. At the age of seventeen t bis home and went to Boston, ng employment. He obtained a place as a brakeman on a railroad and later became the | conductor on a freight tr: Returning again to his nutive state he located in Portland, where he carried on business ascontractor. He, how- ever, after a period went back to railroading and became a conductor on a train run ning between Wilmington, Del., and the peninsula. He was careful and frugal and always on the lookout for a chance to bet- ter his condition. Seeing a prospect in Iowa he went there in 1856 and invested his money in the lumber business. He, however, met with reverses, and> he returned again to the railroad. He was w conductor on a train ru ning between Philadelphia and Wasbington, and it was on his train that Presid@ht Lin: coln made the perilous midnight trip from Philadelphia to this city to be inaugurated. Mr. Knox was one of the few men who was aware of the identity of the distinguished pas- | senger. During the first three years of the war | Mr. Knox continued ou the railroad, and then he conceived the idea of establishing « baggage and express business in this city. He began with one horse and wagon. which be named the Excelsior express. His business methods and his executive ability has resulted in the growth of this feeble enterprise into a business which now requites a building coverimg nearly a square, ou 2d and B strcets, and is regarded es the largest private express concern in this countr Mr. Knox always retained his loyalty to his native state and took particular pleasure in ex- tending courtesies to Maine men visiting the city. Over the Eastern branch, in the District and Prince George's county, Mr. Knox has « farm of 200 acres with buiidings, including three large barus, all modeled after the New Engiand | style. ‘The'barns stored 250 tons of bay and th whole farm is under-drained with tue.
