The éase involved the individual liability of stockholders in the Central Pacific Railroad Company for the debt due the United States on the bords issued in aid of the Central Pacific under the California constitution. Mr. Stanford held 144,387 shares of the Cen- tral Pacific stock, and the value of this stock was claimed by the United States. This contention was resisted by Mrs. Stan- fard on the ground that the California con- stitution was not self-executing, and also on the plea that it was not the intention of Con- gress in granting ald to the Central Pacific Company to put {t on a footing different from the footing on which other govern- ment-aided roads were placed. The case was brought originally in the circuit court for the California district, where the decision was favorable to Mrs. Stanford, and was then appealed to the cir- cuit court of appeals for the ninth circuit, where the decision was also against the government. Liability of Stockholders. Justice Harlan was particular to state yesterday in rendering the decision in the case of the United States vs. the Stanford estate that the question whether the stock- holders of the California Company can be made liable for its debt to the United States arising in some other way than under the Pactfic railroad acts, or by the acceptance of the United States bonds in aid of the con- struction of its road, is not involved in this ca: ‘Nor are we," he continues, “to decide whether the adoption of the California cor- poration as an instrument of the national government in accomplishing a national ob- ject exempted its stockholders from ilability under the constitution and laws of Cali- fornia to ordinary creditors. Reference is made in the opinion to the obligations of the Pacific railroad to pay the United States bonds at maturity, which obligation, the opinion holds, affords “cogent reasons, apart from the words of the act of Congress, why a rule should not be applied to the stockholders of the Cen- tral Pacific Railroad Company, which con- feesedly cannot be applied to stockholders of the Union Pacific Railroad Company. Both corporations participated in the exe- eution of the purposes of Congress. Each received franchises and powers from the federal government, to he exerted for ob- jects of national concern. Although the Central Pacific Railroad Company of Cali- fornia became an artificial being, under the laws of that state, its road owes its exist- ence to the national government, for all that was accomplished by the corporation that constructed and owns it was accom- plished in the exercise of privileges granted by and because of the aid derived from the United States.” National Aid. A brief argument is then entered upon to show that the Ceatral Pacific accepted the conditions imposed by the government and to show that national aid was necessary to the construction of the line, thus plac- ing it also in this respect cn the same footing as the Union Pacific. The opinion conclides as follows: “The relations between the California corpora- tion and the state we-e of ne concern to the national government at the time the purpose was formed to establish a great high y across the contirent for govern- mental and public us> Congress chose this existing artificial being as an instru- mentality to accomplish national ends, and the between the United States corpora-ion «ught to be deter- 4d by the enactments which established relations; and if those enactments do expressly ‘nor by implication subject ekholders of such corporation to I y for its deb*s. it is to be presumed that Congcess intended to waive its right to impose any su: liability. “The views we nave expressed render ft ler any other question re of opinion that the ec States was properly smissed, and that the order of the Cir- cuit Court of Appeals affirming such dis- missal was correct. The judgment is, Uhorcfore,. affirmed. Other Decisto: ‘The decision in the Tennessee Bank and Insurauce Company tax cases was deliy- ered by Juztice Peckham. There were eight of these cases involving in varying degrees the construction of the clause in the federal Constitution which provides that no state shail pess “any bill of at- tainder or ex-post facio law or any law impairing the obligations of contracts,” the companies affected being such as held char- ters either direct or by acquirement from other companies lated prior to the state laws under which the state, county and municipal authorities sougat to tax them at 2 rate in excess of that provided for in these charters. Some of the cases have been in the courts, state and federal, ever since IN73, and involve considerable sums of money. Two of the cases were against the Memphis National Bank of Commerc® and came to the Supreme Court on writs of error from the state supreme court. The decision of that court was reversed, the Supr e Court houlding that sharehold- ers could not be taxed. The only other case in which there was a reversal was that of the Union 2nd Planters’ Bank, which case was taken into the federal circuit court for the western district of Tennessee on a mo- tion to enjoin the state authorities from collecting the tax. The court below grant- ei the injunction. The decision tas the ef- fect of dissolving the injunction. The cases In which the decisions in the court below were affirmed are tnose of the Mer- eantile Bank, the Phoenix Insurance Com- pany, the Memphis City Bank, the Planters’ Insurance Company and the Home Insur- ance and j'rust Compzny. Grain Futures Legal. Justice White read the decision in the case of Theodore Hansen against James E. Boyd et al., in error from the circuit court of the United States for the district of Min- nesota, affirming in all the essential par- ticulars the decision of the court below. The case involved the validity of contracts for the future delivery of grain, which Hansen claimed could not be enforced be- cause they were gambling contracts. The understanding was that final setilement should be made according to the usages and rules of the Chicago board of trade. The court below held that there was nothing fllezal or !mproper in such a pro- ceeding, providing the original contract was lawful, which it had been found to be. ‘The opinion corfirms this view. In the case of W. M. Fishback and others agt. the Western Union Telegraph Com- pany, involving the right to tax the West- ern Union lines in Arkansas, the decision of the circuit court for the eastern district of Arkansas was reversed on the ground that the court did not have jurisdiction. Justice Gray delivered the opinion of the court In the case of Mrs. Amanda W. France agt. John W. Connor and W. R. Brown. The case came to the United States Supreme Court from the Wyoming supreme court, and involved the question as to whether the right of dower conferred by the Edmunds act upon widows in Utah ep- plied to other territories. The Wyoming court decided that it did not, and Justice Gray’s decision confirmed that view. Preferred Deposits. Justice White announced the decision of the court in the Elmira Savings Bank casa. This case came from the New York stata court of appeals on a writ of error by Mr. Charles Davis, receiver of the Elmira Na- tional Bank. The question was whether the deposits of a savings bank in a failed na- tional bank could be given preference over other deposits, in accordance with a state law. The decision of the state court was, against the state law giving preference to savings bank deposits, and putting them on the same footing as other deposits. The decision cf the court below is reversed. National banks, the opinion holds, are in- strumentalities of the federal government created for a public purpose, and as such necessarily subject to the paramount au- thority of the United States.

These principles are axiomatic and are sanctioned by the repeated adjudi- cations of the court. The opinion then re- fers to the law of Congress providing for the ratabie distribution of the assets of in- solvent banks and to the New York state law giving preferential distribulion of such assets to any savings bank that may hove a deposit therein. The conflict between the spirit and the purpose of the two statutes, it is held, is as pronounced as that which exists between their ambiguous letter. It cannot be doubted that one of the objects of the national bank system was to secu in the event of solvency, a just and equ: distribution of the assets of naticnal banks among all unsecured creditors and to pre- vent such banks from creating preferences in contemplation of insolvency. BY BALLOON TO THE POLE. How a« Swedish Explorer Proposes to Solve the Great Problem. From the New York World. The Sunday World presents today official details of the great balloon in which 3. A. Andree, the daring Swedish arctic ex- plorer, intends to try and drift to the mys- terious north pole from some favorable Spot yet to be selected in the northwestern part of Spitzbergen. All previous attempts to reach the pole by vessel or sledge have failed. Intrepid explorers, familiar with the frozen north, are now agreed that it is impossible to reach the pole over the surface of the ice, and they are hopeful that Andree has at last hit upon a practicable plan. In the absence of accurate information as to the Nansen expedition in the Fram, geograph- ical societies do not believe that the Nor- wegian has been more successful than his courageous predecessors, and they are n: pinning their faith to Andree and his big balloon. Their faith is substantial, for a sroup of noted geographers have contribut- ed $50,000 toward the expense of Andree's expedition. The balloon is now building at Van- guard, a suburb of Paris, and will be com- “ e ‘ " 4 pleted in time for the start of the expedie tion, which has been fixed by the last week of May or the early 4 June. The balloon. which has been ened “Pole Nord.” will be made specially woven on the best looms The diameter of the “Pole Nord” will be 20g meters, its capacity » meters. The bag will be made of three thicknesses of silk, bound together by an adhesive v specially prepared for the purpose. It is calculated that the balloon will be gas-proof, and that the gas with which at will be charged at the point of ascension will not leak, and will retain its buoyan until Andiee and his two companions ¢1 reach the pole, or, baffled, land on most northerly part of the American con: nent. A curious feature of the balloon is the big guide-rope of cocoanut fiber, weighing 1,000 kilograms, a weight sufficient to maintain the balloon at a height of alout 0 feet, at which elevation the explorers can study the regions over which they pass, and enable M. Steindberg, the photog- rapher, to picture them. The expedition will start from Gothen- burg on a specially chartered steamer, the Virgo, and will reach northwestern Spitzbergen in two weeks. There the ex- plorers will debark and erect a temporary house, a picture of which is presented here. In this house the balloon i be charged with gas carefully made by ex- perts. It will require some time to make the gas and charge the envelope, but M. Andree expects to get away in the balloon early in July. The “Pole Nord” will carry three per- sons—M. Andree, who is a capable aero- raut; Prof. Gustav Ekhoim, the scien- tific observer, and Dr. Nils Steindberg, physician and photographer. Andres does not know how long he will be in the air Wefore he finds an air current that will drift him over the pole, but he expects the “Pole Nord” will be able to stay aloft three weeks, and cover a distance of 3,000 miles, and the balloon will be provisioned for that period. M. Andree fs an exceedingly handsome and virile man. He is forty-two, and is more than six feet tall. He was born at Grenaa in 1S, and has made many voy- ages to the arctics. He is a veteran aero- naut, as well as sailor, and once journeyed m Gothenburg to the Isle of Gothard, 200 miles, in five hours. Dr. Nils Steindberg, Andree’s first as- sistant, is a young man, only twenty-four, but is a courageous sallor and learned in the lore of the northland. He, like bis chief, is a tall, strong man, and he is also said to be very good looking. This novel expedition is exciting the greatest Interest in scientific circies in Europe, and many steam yachts will es- cort the Virgo as far as Spitzbergen and their distinguished passengers witness the ascersion of the Pole Nord. Every possible contingency of arctic travel has been pro- vided for, and as the Swedes have general- ly been very fortunate tn arctic exploration, Andree’s compatriots are hopeful that good luck will attend him and success crown his novel and daring attempt to solve world-old mystery of the north pole.
