19 THE EVENING STAR, MONDAY, JANUARY 25, 1897-12 PAGES, OLEOMARGARINE CASES| They Were Argued Before the U. 8. Su- preme Court Today. What the Briefs of the Attorneys on Both Sides Set Forth—Interested Spectators Present, The oleomargarine cases were argued be- fore the Supreme Court of the United States this morning. Messrs. Jeremiah Wilson and Henry E. Davis appeared for the appellants, and Holmes Conrad, assist- ant attorney general, for the government, Mr. Joseph Wilkins of the firm of Wilkins & Co. of this city, Mr. M. V. Stone of Braun & Fitts, oleomargarine manufacturers of Chicago, were present as interested spec- 's were filed by Jeremiah M. Wilson and Henry E. Davis for the petitioners, and by the Attorney General for the United States. ‘The Petitioners’ Brief. Counsel for the petitioners argued that the act of Congress approved August ISS, commonly known as the oleomar- garine law, “unconstitutional for the r that Congress cannot delegate to the commissioner of internal revenue, act- ing either alone or with any other per: authority and power to determine what acts shall be criminal, and that the act does not define what act done or omitted to ne shall constitute a criminal offense. © offense against the United States n, therefore, be lawfully created by a ute which attempts to make criminal an act which may be in violation of a reg: ulation thereafter to be formulated by some department or officer of government. If the doing or not doing the act depends upon Its prescription or prohibition by some person named im the statute after the statute shall have passed from the domain of Congress, such act cannot be deemed an offense by the courts ‘of the United Stat because, first, Congress cannot delegate its power to declare offenses any more than it can delegate any other of its legislative functions, and, secondly, Congress cannot make criminal an act unknown and un- conceived at the time of its action. “The oleomargarine 4 for the petitioners, “does not profess to regulate commerce between the states, but, on the contrary, attempts to prescribe the marking of packages containing oleomar- garine whick may never leave the confines of a given state. Under what provision of the Constitution may Congress be claimed to have such power? If it be sald that it is a part of the police power, the answer is that Congress has no such power except in those portions of territory over which Congress has exclusive jurisdiction, and the act is not limited and does not purport to be limited to such. The fact is that Con- gress has assumed to exercise the power throughout the United States of protecting all citizens from fradulent imposition: power which Congress clearly lacks under the Constitution. By what right can Con- gre @ declare that a given package shall he s.amped butter” or “This eent or that a given any particular substan fs not within any of the lelegated powers of Congress, and the right prescribe such designation is a power ng to the states and not delegated is on on, bele to general government. This would seem too clear for argument.

It is said that Representative Fitzgerald of Massachusetts {s determined to bring the question of the acceptence of the statue of Father Marquette, presented to Congress by the state of Wisconsin, before the House for settlement before the close of this Con- gress. The gift of the statue excited a warm controversy last year, in which the A. P. A. played a conspicuous part. terday Mr. Fitzgerald introduced a resolu- tion celliag on the committee on the library to report “what action, if any, has been tak t by that comn ee in regard to the resolution passed unanimously by the Sen- Yes- ate snd reported to the House on the 2th day of last April accepting the statue of Father Marquette and by the House re- ferred to that committee.” Mr. Fitzgerald says that if there is not a reply to the reso- lution within a reasonable time he will ask the House to exclude the committee from considerat.on and take some action itself. —— ce of Property. Alexander Melville Bell has con- ‘ his son, Alexander Graham Bell, the property at the corner of 35th and Q streets northwest, and to Mary E. Symonds, », the house at the corner of 30th and streets northwest. To Miss Elsie M. hild, has been given a row of h street between O and P northwest, while Miss Marian H Bell, a grandchild, receives a row of houses on Fillmore street, Anacostia. These con- veyances are understood to have been made in accordance with the wish of the profes- sor that he might see the persons whom he had decided upon as the recipients of his property in the enjoyment of it before his death. The total value of the property transferred is estimated to be about $50,000. peepee A Little Book of Big Value.

The funeral of Mr. Fred Daw, whose death was published in The Star Satur- day, was held this afternoon at 1:30 o’clgck from the Dumbarton Avenue M. E. Church. Rev. J. B. Stitt, D. D., the pas- tor, cenducted the religious services, and Gelivered an excellent eulogy over the remairs. The pallbearers were Messrs. Frank Mills, Charles Johnson, Columbus Thomas, Charles Demar, Frank Thomas and Thomas Bremmerman. After the ser- vices the cortege proceeded to the 7th street wharf, where the ferry boat was taken for Alexandria. The last three named pallbearers did not make the entire trip, and at Alexandria, their places were filled by Messrs. Frank Cook, Wash. W. Sherwood and John Devine, all personal friends of the deceased. The interment was made at the Meihodist Protestant ceme- tery. The deceased, whose age was eighty years, was a native of Asburion, Devon- shire, England, instead of Torquay, as has becn published. The funeral of Miss Mary Jane Archer, the esumable and popular young lady who died suddenly Saturday morning at her parents’ residence, on 32d street, was held this morning at 10 o'clock. The re- mairs were taken to Trinity Catholic Church, where a solemn mass of requiem was chanted for ihe repose of the soul, Rev. Father Francis McCarthy officiating. The pallbearers were selected from the frierds of the deceased. The interment was at Holy Rood cemetery.

The funeral was held yes- tercay morning at 8 o'clock, and imme- diately afterward the remains were shipped to Ash Grove, Va., where the interment was made. Senator MeMillan received a committee at the Capitol this morning from the North Capitol and Eckington Citizens’ Associa- tion, with whom he held a conference for over an hour regarding proposed legisla- tion to extend the time in which the Eck- ington and Soldiers’ Home Railway Com- pany may introduce rapid transit on its lines. The committee calling on Mr. McMillan consisted of William G. Henderson, presi- dent of the association; T. P. Kane, A. R- Serven and J. H. Lane. The committee pre- sented reasons why the railroad company should be hurried up in Its efforts to give the people of Eckington rapid transit, and favored the passage of some such measure as Senate bill 3450, introduced by Mr. Gal- linger. Mr. McMillan, after carefully going over the matter, concluded to report to the Senate the joint resolution to grant an ex- tension of charter to the railroad, which passed the House of Representatives some time ago, provided the receiver of the com- pany should agree to improve the railway Service now being given on that line by in- treducing a schedule by which it would run-cars, perhaps, every five minutes be- tween 7 and 9 o'clock a.m. and 4 and 8 o'clock p.m., which was the schedule adopt- ed by the Commissioners and complied with by the railroad company for a few weeks previous to the appointment of Mr. Schoepf as receiver. ‘The joint resolution which Mr. McMillan will report, provided the railroad company changes its schedule to improve the service on its lines, provides as follows: : "That the time granted by the act ap- proved June 10, 1896, within which the said Eckington and Soldiers’ .Home Railroad Company of the District of Columbia and the Belt Railway Company of the District of Columbia shall begin to equip those por- tions of their respective lines which are situated within the boundary of the city of Washington with compressed air motors be, and it is hereby, extended to July 1, ‘Sec. 2. That if safd compressed air mo- tors shall be adopted, sald companies shall completely equip their respective lines with such motive power on or before July 1, 1898. “Sec. 3. That if said compressed afr mo- tive power shall not be adopted on or be- fore July 1, 1807, then said railway com- panies shall, within one year after July 1, 1897, equip the respective lines in the city of Washington with an underground elec- tric system: Provided, That in case the said companies shall fail to comply with all the requirements of this act by the time therein fixed the said companies, and each of them, shall forfeit and pay to the Commissioners of the District of Coium- bia the sum of $100 for each day of fail- ure: and provided further, That if said companies shall fail to operate the whole of their respective lines as provided by an act entitled an ‘Act to extend the routes of said railway companies,’ etc, approved June 10, 1896, in such manner and on such schedules as the Commissioners shall ap- prove, then sald companies, and each of them, shall forfeit and pay to the District Commissioners the sum of $100 for each day of such failure.” The above joint resolution passed the Poor Suffering. The present cold wave already has had a great effect upon the poor of this sec- tion of the city, and the requests for aid yesterday and today were more numerous than ever. If the weather continues to be as severe the meager goods at the com- mand of the charitable organizations will soon become exhausted, unless there is a prompt respor se from the general public. Hunting the Fox. The Chevy Chase Hunt Club has had ex- tremely unfavorable weather for the chas- ing of reynard, and though a number of chases have been planned for this month, the conditions have been such as to neces- sitate a postponement each time. The last hunt was to have taken place Saturday at 10 o'clock in the forenoon from Fort Myer, extending toward Langley, Va., but this, like the previous events of the year, had to be declzred off on account of the high wind and the frozen condition of the House of Representatives December 17. | ground, which prevented the hounds from Mr. MeMillan’s decision to report this | taking up the scent.

MeMillan, had placed before him at hearing some interesting statistics showing the amount of patronage that the Eckington and Seldiers’ Home Railroad Company would receive, provided it should give to the residents in the territory through whick it passes a first-class ser- vice. It was shown that the people living on the line and in the immediate vicinity ot this road numbered over 19,000 two years ago, according to the official police census of December 1804. It was aiso shown that the railroad’s patronage at the Cathoite University numbers nearly 200 persons, 175 of whom, being professors and students, make an average of one round trip over the road daily. In addition to this patronage, according to a statement by the registrar of the Catholie University, that institution is visited on Sunday by from 200 to 1,000 persous, and on occasions of lectures, delivered twice a week, sev- eral hundred people go over the line. ———————-—__ ALL VETERANS.

The Northwestern Stove Repair Com- pany’s factory, 225 to 237 West 12th street, Chicago, was burned last night. When the fire engines arrived it was found that the water in every fire plug in the neighbor- hood had been frozen, and fifteen minu.es elapsed before a stream could be brought to bear on the fiames. During this ume the fire spread with such dlarming rapidity that the residents in the vicinity of the fire began to move their household effects cut of their homes. The Northwestern Stove Repair Company is owned by Robt. L. and Ralph S. Greenlee. They place the damage on the contents of their estaolisn- ment at $300,000, and on the building at $125,000. An Interesting Organization at the First Congregatio: Church. The veterans’ organization at the First Cergregational Church were at the front last Friday night in speeches, song and stories. The membership now reaches seventy- two ex-soldiers. ‘The entire church and congregation were the guests of the organization last night. The commandant, John Twedale, extend- ed a welcome. Col. E. Hayes of the 20th Ohio and Rep- resentative Elijah Morse had been detailed to relate army stories, which they did without taxing the credulity of the au- dience., J. F.

The aggregate of gross earnings of all railroads in the United States reporting for the first half of January is $9,737,724, a decrease of 4.4 per cent compared with last year, and of 10.1 per cent compared with the corresponding period in 1893. Only in the Granger, other western, southern and southwestern groups are the number of roads reporting sufficiently large and important to give a fair indication of what the roads in those sections are doing. The Granger and other western roads contiaue to report losses compared with both years with which comparison is made. ‘The southern roads report a gain over both years, and southwestern a considerable loss compared with 1893. —_—_+e+____ AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTATE, &c. EE CHASING A BANK CASHIER. Charged With Embezzlement, Swind- Mng and Forgery. Depositors of the Sioux City Savings Bank of Sioux City, Iowa, dissatisfied with the way matters are progressing under the management of Receiver Moss, have made an investigation on their own account. A committee visited four Nebraska counties, where cattle were said to be, on which the bank held “alleged gilt-edged” paper, and could find neither the cattle nor the men who were said to have given the mortgages on them. On thelr reports attorneys for the depositors immediately swore out war- rants for the arrest of L. P.
