The court said: **Without considering any other phase, the contract this court is ealled upon to force the Western Union into is one of such doubtful character that courts of equity cannot respect. ‘This fur- nishing of vews on horse racing is a species of gambling and it is against public policy.

The feature of the day’s racing was the de- feat of Tournament, the horse for which Mr, Foxhall Keene recently paid £35,000. 1t was his first appearance of he seasen and he was a red hot favorte at odds.

Opinion of the Fedoral Suprems Court on the Original Package Law. KANSAS NEED NOT RE-ENACT PROHIBITION The Suit of Judge McAllister of the Alsska Court Decided in Favor of the Government—Other Decisions, WasniNaros, May 25.—The United States supreme court today deciaed that the original package law passed by the tast congress was valid and constitutional, and thatit wwent into effect in all the states where prohibitory laws prevailed without re-enactment by the states of the laws by which they forbade the sale of intoxicating liquors within their boundaries, whether imported from other states or not. Chief Justice Fuller rendered the opinion of the court and the bench will be united in support of the conclusions to which he arrived, though Justice Gray an- nounced that Justices Harlan, Brewer and himself did not concur in all the reasoning of the opinion of the court. The case upon which the decision was ren- dered was that of John M. Wilkerson, sheriff of Shawnee county, Kansas, appellant, vs Charles A. Rabre, brought here on an ap- poal from the decision of the circuiv court of the United States for the aistrict or Kan against the state. Rahvo was the original package agent at Topeka, Kan., of the firm of Maynard, Hopkins & Co. of Kansas Cit, Mo., and was arrested the day after the or- iginal package law went into offe He claimed that the law was unconstitutional and also that it could not go into operation until the state had re-enacted its prohibitor law. The court says: The power of the state to impose restralnts and burdens upon persons and property in promotion of the public health, good order d prosperity s a power always belonging to the states, not surrendered by them to the gencral government, nor dircetly” rostratned by the constitution ¢ nited States, and essentlally excl The power of 0 commorce among the several s the subjects ar fonal in their niture is also exclusive. The constitution does not provide thut inter- stute commerce shall be free, but by the grant of this exclusive power to regulate It 1t was loft free oxcopt as congress might undertaks to regulate it. Therefore it has been deter- mined (Robbins vs. Sheiby, taxing distri that the fallure of congress to o vise this exclusive power in any case s expression of its will that the subjoct shail be f from restrictions or impositions upon it by the several stutes, and If a state law comes in conflier with the will s the state and congress cannot oceupy the posi tlon of equal obposing sovercignties because the constitution declares its suprs nd that of the laws passed In pursuance thereof, Thitt which is not suprome must yield to that which s supreme. Intoxicating liquors are undoubtedly sub- jects of com ¢ like other commodities and SO 1 nized, but nevertheless it has been often held that laws prohibiting the manu- facture and sale of liquor withinstate limits does not necessurily infringe upon any consti- tutional priviiege or iImmunity, this right be- ing vested. us n the Mugler case. upon the ae- knowledgad right of the states to control their purely internal affairs. and oing they protect the health. morals and safoty of thefr people by regulations that do not Inter- fere with' the powers of the general govern- ment. The present cuse arlses upon the theory repugnance betwee nterstunte conimer ot the stute laws and the clause of tho constitu- tion, and Involves a distinction between the cominerelal power and the polico power, which, while quite distingulshable when thoy do nof appronch each other, are sometimes like the colors, so nearly allied as to perplex the understanding as the colors do the vision, The Towa laws held to be unconstitutionai In the Leisy orlginal package case were en- acted I the exerclse of the state's police power and not at all 15 regalations of inter- state commerce, but us it amounted in effect o & regulution of sueh commerce, it ‘was neld that so long as congross dld not pass any law to regulate specifically the trafiic between the states of_intoxicating liquors, or act in such a way as to allow state laws to operate upon i, congress thereby indicated its will that such’ commerce should be. freo and untrammeled. and therefore that the liiws of Towa were inoperative inso faras they amounted to regulutions of forelsn or interstate commerce in prohibiting the re- ception of such articles within the state or their sule upon arrival in the form in which tmported. It followed as a corollary that when congress opernted at all the result of its actlon meant to operate as a restraint upon that perfect freedom which its silence insured. CGongress has now spoken and declared that imported liguors shall upon arrival in o 8 fall withiu the category of domestic articles of a stmilur nature, Contimuing the court says: The law of con gress did not. use terms of permission to th state to act, but simply removed un hmped ient to the entoreoment of the state laws in Dect to 1 pickages in the originnl condition by the absence of u specific utterance on its part. 1t imparted no power to the state not then possessed, but allowed Imported property to fall at oncé upon arrival within the local jurlsdiction The liuor arrived fn Kansas prior to the publishing of tho aet of congress, hut there is 10 question presented of the riZntof the lm- porter to withdraw the property from the state, nor it is percelved that the congr slonul enactment s gven a retrospoctive op. ation by holding Itapplicable to a transaction occurring after It took effect. It is not the cuso of i law enacted in the unauthorized ox- ercise of a power exclusively confided to con- gress, but of a Jaw which it Was competent for the state to pass, but which could not operate upon articles of carrying until the passage of the actof congress.” That act romoves the obstacle and no adequate ground is percelved for holding that a re-enactment of the state law was required before it could have tho ef- fect upon fmported which it always had upon domestle property. Jurisdiction attach not in virtue of the laws of congress, but eause that tho law placed the property where Jurisdiction could attach. The decrec of the lower court Is, therefore, reversed. The court also rendered an opinion through Justice Harlan in the case of Judge MeAllis- ter against the United States. MoAllister was vemoved trom oftice as judge of the dis- trict court for Alaska by President Cleye- and, and claimed salary from the time of his removal to the qualification of Dawson, who was coufirmed as his successor. One ques- tion in the case was whether the judges of the Alaskan court came within the provision of sections 1705 of the revised statutes, aathorizing the president to suspend all civil officers “except judges of the United States.” The court holds that the Alaska court is not a court of the United States in the constitutional sense as set forth in the third article of the constitution, but a terri- torial court. The fact that the terms of the Alaska judge is hmited to four years and that he does not hold office for life or during good behavior, the court says, proves it 15 not a court of the United States as the term is con- stitutionally used. The court said the de- cision in the present caso gave the president power over territorial oficers. Judgment is therelore given in favor of tne United States. Justices Gray and Brown dissented in an opmion in which Justico Fieid maintained that the mere will of the president was not suflicient ta remove a judge of a court created by the United States and that the constitution did not contemplate that judges should be respon- sible to him for his continuance in oftice. Iv seemed to him that some of his brethren overlook the character of the judicial branch of the government, which ouly made a dis- tinction against the courts of “the torrituries. ‘These courts have similar powers and there was the same necessity that they should use their oftice carefully and without oftending any president, lest they should be romoved. The case of Wingard, justice of the Wash- ington territory court, was decided in this wiky. The court also, in an opinion by Justice Brewer, today afirmed the judgment of the supremo court of New Mexico in_the case of Pedro Delgardo against the sheriff of Santa Fo county, New Mexico. Delgardo was county clork and refused to obey an ordor of the court directing him to recoguize three county commissioners as_duly elected. Del- gardo was sent to jail for contempt, and this court refuses to direct his release. The case is one growing out of the exciting territorial election and has attracted cousiderablo atten- tion. The court also, by a majority of five to four, today afirmed the judgment of the cir- cuit court for the northern district of New York iu the case of Albert B, Briggs, receive of the Iirst Natioual bank of ' Buffalo, against B. G. Spaulding et al, directors of the bank. Tho receiver sought to hold the di- rectors responsible for bad loans made by the president of the bank. No dishonosty ~ was charged, but it was asserted that if the di- 1 rectors bad giver proper atteution to the af- be- - fairs of the bank it would ot have failed, and that tho!dy were liable to tho bank. The cowtt Rolds that the directors aro slinply to exerdis ordlinary prudence and that tils prudehckis to be governed by usage in bank affairs? ‘Phis was done in the pres ont case. Thotladh is of great importance, involving the rélatons of *all national bank dircctors. The' dpinion was by the chier justice, The suprome ceurt, through Justice Brad- ley, also rondersd judgments against the state of Kontiteky in the suit by Cruteher, agent of the Uhited States express company, who claimed that' the law of tho stato im: posing licensé' fax on express companies was in violatiot of the interstate commerco clauso of the fedaril constitution, The court al4o leld that the Virginia law requiring inspection (for which fees were charged) of flour manufactured outside the state contrary to the federal coustitution. In the case’ of the Chicago distilling com- pany against Stone, internal revenue colle tor,"Justice Bradley deliverod av opinion in favor of the aistilling company, holding as unlawful the government method of assess- ing at the ond of each month what he called “mulet money,” to make up any distillation by distilleries in excess of the capucity es- timated from day to day. Mt L THE PRESBYTERIANS. Details of the Work Accomplished A ng the Negroe DeTROIT, Mich,, May 25.—At the morning session of tho Presbytorian general assem- bly the discussion of a seal was taken up, but was soon dropped and continued as tho order for this evening, The standing com- mitteo on freedmen reported. Rev. Dr. Allen, secretary of the board, spoke of tho encouraging way in which the colored peoplo were coming to the front. ‘The present gon- ation of negroes, he said, will larwely do- cido tho character of the generations to come, and who, for good or ill, will 5o gravely influence the future of the country. The only solution of the negro problem is Christian education for him. The secretary reported over $176,000 given for supvort during tho last year of the 209 churches and soventecn missions under the control of the board. In these are 130 missionaries, mostly colored, and 15,456 communicants, The Sab bath school pupils‘ number 15,212 in 250 schools. There are cighty-four day schools which have an attendance of 11,02 The standing committee on bringing to- gether nt churches and unemployed ministors reported certain recommendations dosigned to strengthen the “episcopal power of prosbyteries.” "Thero was an animated discussion of its provisions. Dr. Lowry of Philadelphin opposed the fourth section as belug a biack list of ministers and churches who for any reason declino to come under the arrangement. The discussion, which was participated in by a number of others, showed a diversity of “opinion upon the sub: ject, but the concensus of thought seemed to be that the matter be left to the presbyteries, President Patton recommended that bofore final enactment it bo reforred to a special committee, to report to this assembly on the question of the constitutionality of the plan, whick he much doubted, but_offered o with* draw his motion till all the sections wore acted upon, Leave to withdraw was by vote and adjournment cut off further de The report of the committee on correspond- ence between churches and ministers was fixed for the first order Tuesday morning. The postponed discussion of ‘the seal was taken up, the serpent symbol being advo- cated by Dr. W, A, Bartlett of Washington, who thought that the conclusion reached in the learned and oxhaustive investigation of the committee should bo given great” weignt. Hosaid: *“I hopo tho snake will go. Christ said: ‘Be wise as serpents.” Our prejudice against the beoutiful creatures of (iod— as truly his as we are—is unworthy a Christian man. ~ The serpent on the seal is not an animal. Qur Scottish-Irish ances- tors understood the:meaning of emblems and put the serpent on their seal.” He objected to the open bible, 4s that was the voice of several religious bodies. After considerable confusion of debate, in- volving many intrigate points of order, it was voted t regommit the wholo subject’ to the committes, to be reported to this as- sembly. ke John aton, Deidy Lile Mariotta college, io, < formerly - United States commissioner of ‘education, read the report of the board of education. The sub- Ject was continued by Daniel H. Poor, D. D., tho secretary. and George H. Baker, D. D. the president of the board; J. D. Hewiut, D. D., of Kansas, and Dr. Crosser of Illinois. The ceport was then accepted and its recom: mendation adopted. The report of the executive committes was made the first order for Friday moraing. Adjourned. It is thought by good observers that the tide of opinion is changing in favor of voto- ing Dr. Briggs’ appointment or transfer to the Robinson professorship of biblical the- ology without touching the question of his heresy, as that would vrejudico the case b fore the New York presbytery, and vezy po sibly without assigning ground: refused L., president of Chicago Ministers on Briggs. Cuicaco, May 25.—~Several of Chicago's prominent divines discussed tho heresy of Dr. Briggs in their pulpits yesterday. Rev. Dr. John Burrows at the First Presbyterian church declared for Prof. Briggs. He thinks that if the Presbyterian confession of faith is 00 nurrow to receive the coutroversalist it ought to be broadened. His subject was “Esscatial Truth.” “No man exceeds him in loyalty to Jesus Christ as the God man. If thereis noroom forsuch ashe inthe Presbyterian churen, then the constitution of that church ought to be changed; its scope should be ade broader, I believe that if men will ceaseto putthe gospel on tho defensive and cease to make it chiefly a theme of argument, but rather insisvon pro- claiming Jesus Christ as tha truth, they will put the world on the defensive and Wi larger victories.” Rev, Thomas C. Hall at the Forty-first street Presbyterian church preached from the text, “And Simeon answered and said, Thou art the Christ.”” “In this creed of Simeon Peter's,” said the preacher, “there can be tound no mistake. In many of our modern church creeds the elements which should be least noticed are the most magni- fied. Your creeds should bo simply what you think of Jesus Christ.
