Ui iy TOBACCO IN SUPREME (OURT | Individual Btates, It is Held, Have Power to Regulats Sale of Weed, 1S AN ARTICLE OF COMMERCE WITHIN LAW to Comfort of Mankind. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—~The United States supreme court today rendered an opinion in the case of Willlam R. Austin against the State of Tennessee, involving the validity of the state law regulating the sale of cigarettes. The law is attacked as an infringement of the rights of con- gress to regulate interstate commerce. The Tennessee supreme court upheld the law and today's decision sustained that opinfon, though not without disapproval of some of the positions taken, and then upon a very narrow margin, four of the nine members joining in a dissenting opinion and another member of the court (Justice White) placing his assent upon grounds different from those announced by Justice Brown, who handed down the opinion The case grew out of the importation of clgarettes into Tennessee from North Caro- lina. They wero taken luto the state in the ordinary size cigarette package about two by four inches, and theso pac ages were loosely thrown into baskets which were uncovered. The claim was made that these cigarette packages were what is known to the law as original packages, but without clearly defining an original package the court held that it was clear that such packages could not be s0 considered. Justice Brown in passing upon the case sald that the packages were obviously made up with the view of evading the law, and as he spoke he held one of the little cigarette cases up to the view of his auditors. On this point the decision of the state court to the effect that the packages were not original was fully con- firmed. On another phase of the case the state court was not so fully endorsed. The Tennesseo court held that clgarettes are not an article of commerce. With this view Justice Brown took lssue and he delivered quite a dissertation upon the subject. Whatever is an object of barter and sale is, he sald, an article of com- merce and must be so recognized. To- bacco has been such an article for 400 years. It had been made the subject of taxation, and, indeed, had become widely scattered than any other v He addud that no other vegetable h tributed so much to the comfort and solace of the human race. This belng th was entirely beyond bounds to tobacco was not an article of commerce, He then took notice of the claim that cigar- ettes are an especiaily harmful form of tobacco and while he conceded that this might be the case, remarked that this claim was of comparatively recent origin. Still he held that cigarettes are as much a subject of state regulation as 18 liquor and he further held that while no state la could prohibit importation in orlginal packages it was entirely competent for a legislature to regulate the sale because of general bellef in the deleterious effect of the article. There was & dissenting opinion by Justice Shiras, in which Chief Justice Fuller and Justices Brewer and Peckham joined. They based thelr dissent on the theory that con- gress has exclusive control of interstate commerce. MUSCATINE, Ia., Nov. 19.—Judge Bran- nan, in the district court, has granted a temporery injunction restraining Musca- tine county from collecting the $300 state mulct tax from local dealers in cigarettes. The American Tobacco company has backed local dealers in disregarding the anti- cigarette law, claiming that it interfered with the Interstate commerce law. A test caso is now pending. BEST BATTERY IN THE FIELD General Linivetch Feels Like Taking Oft His Hat Every Time He Sees Uncle Sam's Light Artillery, WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.—Some d'sparag ing criticlsm upon the American fleld gun as exhibited in the Chinese campalgn led Adjutant General Corbin to address the tollowing Inquiry to General Chaffee “‘Adjutant Gene s Office, Nov. 15, 1900.— Chaffee, Pekin: Asserted our light artlllery guns did not meet all requirements in sery- ice compared with other armies. What are the facts? CORBIN." The tollowing response has been recelved: ‘‘Adjutant General, Washington, Nov. 16: Replying to your No. 72, our battery is better than battery of any other army in campaign. German battery just arrived; some features superlor to ours. Powder charge in care fired with trigger, like pistol. More rapid fire result. Brake arrangement also better. Caliber gun not quite so large. Our battery bighly praised, particularly so by General Linivetch, who said he felt like taking off his hat whenever he saw It.

The navy department was advised some time ago that trouble had arisen between Captain McCalla, commanding the Newark, and Lieutenant Commander John C. Col- well, formerly naval attache at London and now executive officer of the ship. While the department was acquainted with the fact, it left the matter to the commander. in-chief of the station, Admiral Remey, to adjust. He has now found it necessary to aproint a court of inquiry, which will de- termine the merits of the dispute between the two officers.

LARGER AND FASTER BOATS TO BE BUILT Efforts of Great Northern to Acq & Part of the Carrying Trade to from the Orie New Enterprise. re MINNEAPOLIS, Minn, Nov. 18.~A spe- clal to the Times from Tacoma, Wash,, ays: The Canadlan Pacific Railroad company 18, Preparing “to give battle to James HUI and his allled transpacific steamship Interests. 1t {8 planned to forestall the steamship se of the Great Northern to Yokohama and Hong Kong by shorten- Ing the time with the present line of express steamers and eventually to ® plant these with a new line of ships. The Canadian iflc steamers do not now actually call at the port of Victorla, approaching no nearer to that city than the quarantine statlon, ten miles distant. Malls and paseengers for Victoria are landed from the aquarantine ation by a lighter, All this 18 unsatisfactory to the people of Vic- torfa, necessitating delays and occuples time 'without proving of great financlal ad- vantage to the Canadian Pacific. As it does not at all satisfy the Victorlans, they give no frelght or passenger trafic to tho m- presses which can convenfently be placed With any other transpacific line. As soon as the new line of the Great Northern steamers 18 placed on the Oriental run, as Victorta will be a regular port of call, every Victorian pussenger and every pound of freight controlled in that city will, beyond doubt, go to the American line. ‘This will afford the Empresses an additional reason for adopting the northern route. This wiil causo them to be run from Vancouver up the gulf of Georgia and directly through Queen Charlotte sound, from whence they will run out into the Pacific, making the start thus far on the trip as ‘quickly as it they were running down to Vietorla and Dbeing “thirty-five miles farther on their route In the same time. Another day would thus be cut off the running time to Yoko- hama. It has been reported on several occasions that the Empresses will be put on the run between Vancouver and Australlan ports to_replace tho Aorangl and sister bont while new and very fast steamers will bullt for the Orfental trade. Some such a rangement as this will in all probabllity eventually be adopte. CHANGES IN B. AND 0. BOARD P ylvania and Southern Pacific Interests Get Additional Re resentation. BALTIMORE,, Md., Nov. 19. uch spec- plation was indulged in today as to ths #lgnificance attached to the changes made in the directorate of the Baltimore & Ohlo rallroad at its annual meeting today. John P. Green, first vico president of the Pennsylvania Rallroad company; Charles H. Tweed, chairman of the board and second vice president of the Southern Pacific, and Martin Erdman of New York were elected directors in the places of J. Kennedy Tod of New York, Henry Clay Plerco of St. Louls and Alexander Brown of Baltimore. The full list of directors elected follows Edward R. Bacon, Martin Erdman, John P. Green, Edward H. Harriman, James J. Hill, Sutherland M. Prevost, Norman B. Ream, Willlam Salomon, Jacob H. Schiff, Charles Steele, James Stiliman, Charles H. Tweed. By the election of Captain Green the Pennsylvania’ s representation on the Bal- timore & Ohlo directorate is increased to two, the other representative being S. M. Prevost. In the person of Mr. Tweed the Southern Pacific obtains an important rep- resentation in Baltimore & Ohlo affairs. He is closely allied with the firm of Spoyer & Co., which financed the reorganization of the Baltimore & Oblo, as Is also Mr. Erdman. Canadian Pacific is Pacified. MONTREAL, Nov. 19.—The question of tho Canadian Pacific winter traffic, which the company threatened to take to Boston unless the government gave the road certain priviloges nccorded to other roads, has been sottled. After negotiations with the premier and other members of the cabi- | net the Canadian Pacific report announces | its declsion to take its export traffic to the port of St. John during the coming winter. BOSTON, Nov. 19.—-The decision of the Canadian Pacific railroad not to transfer its export graln tra to Boston, was not unexpected in this city. The fssus has been a semi-political one, in some parts of Canada, particularly in St. John, whero both sides in the recent elections used the export traffic in their own interest. The Intercolonial road, which {s owned by the government, 1s & competitor of the Canad- tan Pacific from Montreal eastward, and it has trafic arrangements with the Grand Trunk, which the Canadian Pacific officials decided was unfair to them. During the last thres years the Canadian Pacific road has done an immense business in hauling grain to St. John, but mearly all of the cars have been returned to Montreal empty, which partially offset what otherwise would have been unusual earnings. The road claimed that the Intercolonial should have transferred some of its through westbound freight to it instead of routing it over the Grand Trunk. The minister of rallways, Mr. Blair, was blamed for these conditions and during the clection the Canadian Pacl- flo management threatened to transfer the graln trafic to Boston, but it is thought that this threat was used considerably as a means of inducing Blair to grant the de- sired concession. Norfolk R e CHICAGO, Nov. 19.—The case of Charles H. Johnson, representing the Norfolk (Neb.) Business Men's assoclation, agalnst the Chicago, St. Paul Minneapolls & Omaha Raflway et al., will be heard by the Inter- state Commerce commission at the federal court room tomorrow. The complainant alloges a discrimination In the freight rates from Chicago to Norfol€ and other Ne- braska points in favor of Minneapolls, Minn., a competitor in that territory. Tho briefs filed by the railroads say that it the rates asked for by Norfolk are granted, commercial depression will lay a heavy hand on the Missouri river jobbers, and that the merchants at those points will bave to cease doing business and yleld thelr territories to trade centers east of the Mis- sourl river. Rate Fight in Arkan LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Nov. 15.—Judge Trieber of the federal court today granted an injunction restraining the Arkansas rail- rond commission from enforcing its joint freight tariff. The injunction is temporary and was granted on application of the §t. Louts, Tron Mountain & Southern and the 8t. Louls Southwestern railroads. In the complaint it 18 alleged, among other things, that the joint tariff is a result of a de- termination on the commission's part to re- Auce existing rates without regard to conse- quences.
