BAUS, 416 7TH ST. mr 5-t It is not often that a base ball player is led off the field by an escort of police, but that is what happeged during the St. Louis-Cincinnati game yesterday afternoon. Vaughn, the Cincinnati catcher, was the player who brought humilia- tion on himself. The scen¢ occurred in the fifth inning. Brodie was running toward home and Vaughn blocked his way. lision just as the ball reached the catcher’a hand. “Vaughn turned on Brodie and, picking upa bat, dung it at his head. Brodie made a @ash for him, but was held back by Umpire McQuaid. Tl wns lined up toa man and Went after Vaughn, who was making toward the players’ bench to,procure another bat. Wer- den was the only brown leg to disgrace himself. He threw a batat the catcher, which struck him im ‘the back Vaughn turned) from the ‘aggressor to the hunted one and t: escape from the grounds. A watchman stopped him. Capt. Quinn and Umpire McQuaid held back the players. Vaughn was fined $25, and two icemen led him off the grounds amid the rs of the crowd. The game, aside from this sensational feature, was very’ exciting, three several innings. The men being given « base in attendance was 2,500. the counter attraction of the big race yesterday a big crowd of over 2,000 persons attended the base ball game between Brooklyn and Baltimore at Eastern Park, Brooklyn. ‘They wero repaid by seeing a remarkably close and well played game, Brooklyn winning. Threedouble plays marked the day's play. Reitz, who played a beautiful game at second, caught aline drive from Corcoran’s bat and doubled up Richardson at first, Denny himeelf and Corcoran doubled up a couple ofthe Ori- oles and Tom Daly made » dou imself by catching a twisting Clark's bat, and then, touching third, a out Reitz, who had started for the home plate. What’ there was of the batting was exciting. McMahon and Robinson only officiated in the first inning. An old-time crowd attended the opening 1@ of the season between Boston and New ‘ork at the South End Park, Boston, yesterday. Gov. Russell and other state and’ municipal dignitaries were present. The Bostons won the game bands down in the sixth inning, when they bunched three hits, with « combination of wild pitching on the part of Crane and rank errors by Davis, Fuller and Doyle. Aside from this inning the felding on both sides was su- rb. Carroll, Ward, Nash and Long excelled the infield. " Doyle's throwing to second was superb. ‘The New Yorks outbatted their oppo- nents and only good outfielding kept their score down. The attendance was 8,000.

Another Great Surprise in the Winner of the Brooklyn Handicap. Amid a deep and oppressive silence Diablo, the aged von of Eolus and Grace Darling, won the rich Brooklyn handicap at Gravesend, L. I., yesterday afternoon in the presence of 30,000 Persons. Lamplighter, the favorite, who went to the post carrying a ton of moucy, was second and Leonawall third. ‘The winner's time was 2.09, made fractionally as follows: Quarter, 0.2534 half, 0.51; three-quarters, 1.16; mile, 1.4234; mile and a quarter, 2.09. The reason for the chilly silence with which Diablo's victory was received is rather difticult of explanation. Even though the winner was an entresne ottskdar, shich fect, of eourse, bad its effect, the race-going public are too gener- ous to allow that tp weigh in the balance, and generally give applause where applause is ‘due.

Justice Field Says the Decision is a Against Constitutional Liberty. RELATIONS WITH CHINA. Government Officials and Representatives of the Chinese Government Reticent— Opinio: Passed on the Decision — The Money Required to Carry Out the Law. The decision of the United Supreme Court, printed in Tux Sram yesterday, declaring the Geary Chinese law constitutional, was the chief subject of discussion last ifht among public men. The principal dissenting opinion was de- livered by Justice Field. A brief outline of his views was given in Tax Star. In the course of his long and carefully prepared paper he said that between legislation for the exclusion of Chinese persons—that is, to prevent them from entering the country—and the legielation for the deportation of those who had acquired a residence in the country under a treaty with China there is a wide and essential difference. ‘The power of the government to exclude for- eigners from this country, that is, prevent them from entering it, whenever the public in- terests in its judgment requires such exclusion, has been repeatedly asserted by the legislative and executive departments of our government and never denied, but deportation from the country of persons lawfully domiciled therein by permicsion of the government and engaged in the ordinary persuits of life has never been asserted by the legislative or executive depart- ments of the government since its foundation, except for crime or as an act of war in view of existing or anticipated hostilities, unless the alien act of 1798 can be considered as recognig- ing that doctrine. . “The act hada brief existence. It was re- peated with the change of administration and Bis over since been the subject of execration. In no other instance, until the law before us was passed, has any public man had the bold- ness to advocate the deportation of friendly aliens in time of peace. And it will surprise most people to learn that any such dangerous and despotic power lies in our government which will authorize it to expel at ploasure, in. time of peace, the whole body of friendly for- cigners of any country domiciled herein by its permission, a power which can be brought into exercise whenever it may suit the pleasure of Congress and be enforced without regard to the | guaranties of the constitution for the protec- tion of the rights of person and property. Is it possible that Congress can, at its pleasure, ex- Lat any time the Irish, German, Fronch and nglish people who may’ have taken up their residence here on the invitation of the govern- ment in disregard of the guaranties of the constitution, simply on the ground that they have not been naturalized?” Justice Field then went on to show at length that even if the object of the sixth section of the Geary act was constitutional the procedure providing for its accomplishment was not. AGAINST THE TEACHINGS OF HISTORY. “The moment,” he said, ‘any human being comes within the jurisdiction of the United States, with the consent of the government— and such consent will always be implied whon din the case of; the. 8 was in terms given by treaty—he becomes subject to all their laws and amenable to their punishment and entitled to their protection. Arbitrary and dospotic authority can no more be exercised over them with reference to their persons and property than over the persons and property of native- born citizens. They differ only from citizens in that respect that they ean not vote orhold any ublic offices. As men having our common Enmanity, ther are protected by ail the guaran ties of the Constitution. To hold that they are subject to any different law or are less pro- tected in any particular is, in my judgment, against the teachings of our history, the prac- tice of our government and the 0 of our Constitution. CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT, “The punishment is beyond all reason in its severity. It is out of all proportions to the al- lenged offense. It is cruel and unusual. As to ite cruelty, nothing can exceed @ forcible de- portation from a countzy of one's residence, and the breaking up of all the relations of friendship, family and business there con- tracted. “T will not pursue the subject fa-ther. The decision of the Court and the sanction it would give to legislation depriving resident aliens of the guaranties to the constitution fills me with apprehensions. Those guaranties are of price- Jess vaino to every one resident in the country, whether citizen or alien, Icannot but regard the decision as a blow against constitutional liberty, when it declares that Congress has the righ’ to disregurd the guaranties of the Consti- tution intended for the protection of all men domiciled in the country with the consent of the government in their rights of person and property. How far will its legislation go? The unnaturalized resident feels it today, but if Congress can disregard the guaranties with re- spect to any resident of the country with the consent of the government it may dis- regard the guaranties with respect to naturalized citizens, - What assur, ance have we that it may not declats that naturalized citizens of a particular cosn- try cannot remain in the United States afters certain day unless they have in their ponses sion'a certificate that they are of good moral character and attached to the principles of our Constitution, which certificate they must ob- tain from a collector of internal revenue upon the testimony of at least one competent witness of a nationality to be designated by the govern- ment? “What answer could the naturalized citizen in that case make which cannot be urged in behalf of the poor and despised Chinese labor- ers of today? ‘am of the opinion that the orders of the court below sbould be reversed and that the petitioners be discharged.” CHIEF JUSTICE FULLER'S DISSENT. Chief Justice Fuller also, as stated in Tae Star, dissented from the opinion of the court. He denied the soundness of the proposition that the cases before the court were such as the political department of the government alone could deal with. it was, in his view, a judicial question, and, however reluctant coutts may be to pass upon the constitution- ality of legislative acts, it was the very essence of judicial duty to do so when the discharge of that duty was properly imposed upon it. Ho entertained no doubt that the provisions of the fifth and fourteenth amondments were universal in their application, and that while the general government was invested, so far as foreign coun- tries were concerned, with all the powers necessary to the maintenance of its absolute independence and security, it could not in vir- tue of a supposed inherent sovereignty abso- lutely deal with persons lawfully and peaco- fully within its domain. The act before the court was not an act to abrogate or repeal a treaty nor to expel Chinamen lawfully here, and no such intent could be imputed to Con- gress. Its object was to peescribe a method of registration, and the deportation denounced by way of punishment was, in his view, an unusual punishment not authorized by the Constitu- tion. A REHEARING DENIED. After the court had coneluded announcement of opinions J, Hubley Ashton of counsel for the Chinese moved fora rehearing of the caso and an argument before a full bench at the next term. At present the court stands five to three in support of the law, Justice Harlan being absent. ‘The court took a short recess to consider the motion. After the recess the court denied the motion for a rehearing, so the opinion stands as announced. AN EMBARRASSING SITUATION, The representatives of both countries evi- dently appreciate the position tho sustaining of the law places them in, as neither were willing after the decision was announced to say a word, fearing that some statement injudiciously made or incorrectly interpreted might be the cause of serious results, After Secretary Carlisle became aware of the action of the Supreme Court he immediately left the department yesterday and went to tho White Howe, where he remained for over an ur. At the Chinese legation the Chinese minister courteously declined to express any opinion upon the decision of the court or to give any intimation as to the course his government might deem proper to adopt under the circum- stances. He especially declined tosay anything upon the alleged retaliatory policy of ordering the expulsion of Americans from Chin: Mr. H. J. Moy, counsellor to the Chinese legation, said last evening that the contest ist the law would doubtless be transferred gress when it meets in the fall. Under present conditions it will be impossible for the officials to execute the law literally, because there is practically no money with’ which to carry its provisions into effect. Mr. Moy called attention to the fact that when au effort was made to secure the insertion of an item of half amilhon of dollars in the appropriation bills for the purpose of enabling the executive authorities to carry out the provisions of the law, Mr. Holman antagonized and defeated it. The consequence was that Congress appropri- ated only £50,000, the sum heretofore annually provided with which to deport the Chinese who might unlawfully secure entrance into the United States and be found out. It was an unfortunate and deplorable condition of affairs, he said, which threatened the peaceful relations between China and the United States and left hundreds of natives of each country in the ter- Titory of the other, practically hostages for each other. OPINIONS OF CONGRESSMEN. ‘The comments of Congressmen on the Su- preme Court decision as to the constitutionality of the Chinese exclusion act indicate that the encral expectation was that the law would be tained and that, therefore, the decision of the court is not a surprise. A majority of those who have expressed an opinion as to the merits of the law approve it and believe that in the end it will work out. A few who voted for the Jaw are nct nowas favorable toit,and the prospect that the expense which it will involve the government in for the deportation of the Chinese will amount to €6,000.000 or $8,000,000, is rather a stunner to those economists in Con- gress whoare trying to keep down all sorts of expenditures. vernment is embarrassed, also, by the fact that there. is practically no money available to carry out the provisions of the law, and it is feared that there will be some trouble about getting a sufficient appropriation from Congress, Some of the Congressmen who favor the law halt at the proepect of a large appropriation. Senator Cockrell says that it is a serious thing to take so much money from the treasury at this time. Representative Cummings favors thelaw and the appropriation necessary to carry it out. Mr. Tarsney eays that, though he voted for the law, he opposes it now and will not vote for a big appropriation to carry out its provisions. Mr. Meyers of Louisiana voted for the law and is in favor of putting an end to Chinese immigration, but is in doubt about Congress giving the ‘appropriation necessary. Senator Dubois and ‘Reprosentative Caruth both believe in the law and expross satisfuction with the decision. Mr. Harris of Kansas says that the law canuot be successfully defended. He does not like the know-nothing idea and says it is an injustice to deport Chinese al- ready here. Mr. Bankhead would be satisfied if future immigration could be prevented. Representative Bynum of Indiana said: “It is the law and there is little more to add. I have no doubt that the Chinamen will go for- ward now and comply with the conditions of the Geary act, and so there will possibly be_no great amount of friction over the matter. The decision makes two points very clear, to wit, thnt this government can exclude immigrants from any country absolutely, and that it can Tegulate the movements of ‘thove aliens who have settled here by imposing just such condi- tions as are contained in the act whose consti- tutionality has been affirmed.” A CALIFORNIA VIEW. ‘Mr. Caminetti of Calfornia was pleased ‘with the decision, ‘The Supreme Court of the United States,” he said, “has today published to the world a declaration of independence no leas important in its consequences on the achievements secured under that which has made the Fourth of July forever memorable than the original document itself, That of ’76 gave life to true American liberty, the one of "98 enunciates principles that will preserve it unpolluted for those capable on account of thetr intelligence to appreciate its blessings. Tt'means that the right of asylum does not \cdtry With it the privilege to introduce the scum of the earth against our consent; that the term, th@ home of the uppressed of all lands, whether in sentiment or law, applies only to those who like the founders of our states es- caped from oppression aimed as a punish- ment to their advanced thought, political as weil as religions, and not to the 5 mendicant and ‘the criminal, and that at Inst ‘we may choose our own company from among the family of nations. “The administration deserves for the able and far-seeing methods employed in the controversy. In less than fifteen days tigation involving constitutional and inter- national questions of the gravest importance have been brought to a final judgment in the highest court in the land, Under ordinary circumstances at least from six to twolve months would have been consumed. “You ask: ‘Will the law be enforced?’ No question about it in my judgment. The law if enforced, as I have reason to believe it will bo, with determination will in a measyre furnigh methods of its own to deport those not en- titled to remain, but Congress will uo doubt appropriate the necessary funds, When the whole matter is understood; when the nature and powers of the ‘Six Chinese Companies” ere clearly known; when the people appreciate that we have an element under the control of these companies that exists in actual slavery under them, their revolutionary tactics will find no support.” t credit SOCIAL MATTERS, Asupper and hop wag given in Brightwood by the entertainment committee of Ruth Chapter, No. 1, 0.
