Supreme Court Decision in the

 

JointTraflic (lose.
THREE JUDGES Tl, DISSENT

_—._..._- 13...;
. :7.
The Agreement of the Association Ille-

 

gal, Incmded in tho Szope of the Anti-

‘ ,Trust Act. The Power of Congress to

Regulate Such Corporations Affirmed.

'VV-ashington, Oct. 25.—The :United
States supreme court yesterday “decid-
ed the Joint Traffic Association Rail-
road case in favor of the nited States
and against the railroads.

Judge Peckham announced the de-
cision. He said that the court could
distinguish no difference between this
case and that of the trans-MisSouri
case decided a year ago, which was de-
cided against the railroads.

He said the only‘ new point involved
was as to the constitutionality of the
anti—trust act. The court had reached
the conclusion that as railroad corpo-
rations performed duties of a. semi-
public character, it was within the con—
stitutional power of Congress to regu-
late them, as provided by the anti-
trust act.

..The only question then was as to the
policy of Congress in adopting such a.
measure, and as to questions of policy,
‘tihe court, he said, had nothing to

o.

The opinion, which was very brief,
was concurred in by Chief Justice Ful-
ler and Judges arlan, Brewer, Brown
and Peckham.

Three justices dissented, namely,
Judges Gray, Shires and White.

Judge McKenna took no part in the
case, as the prosecution of 2‘: Joint
Traffic Association was begI. - while he
was attorney general.

After Judge 'Peckham had announc-
ed the opinion, Judge Harlan verbally
expressed. with some evidence of sat-
isfaction, his concurrence, on the same
ground, he said, as that set forth in
the Trans-Missouri case.

Under the decision rendered, the de-
cfiions of the United States circuit:
court for the southern district of New
York and of the United States court of
appeals, both of which were favorable
to the Joint Traffic Association, are
reversed.

Miss Churchill’s “leading,

New York, Oct. 25.—Miss Marie Heyl
Churchill, the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. John H. Churchill, was married
to Harold Herman John Baring at St.
Thomas’s church at 4.30 o’clock yes-
terday afternoon.

A large number of invitations
issued and it was one of the
brilliant weddings of the season.

Florists were at work on the deco-
rations early, and when the guests
entered they found the church elabor-
ately trimmed with plants and flowers
in which white Chrysanthemums pre-
dominated.

The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. J. Wesley Brown, and the bride
was given away by her father. The
best man was George A. H. Churchill,
the brother of the bride, while Miss
Muriel Baring, the bridegroom’s sis-
ter, had been selected as maid of hon-
or.

Miss Churchill, who is a. tall brunette,
wore a White satin gown trimmed with
Her veil was held in place
by a diamond tiara. and she wore a di-
amond collarette.,-.She carried a bou-
quet of white orchids.

'At the close of the ceremony a recep-
tion was given at 44 West Fifty-first
street, the home of the Churchills, af-
ter which the pair started on a brief
wedding trip. Returning to this city,
they will sail for England, the home of.
the bridegroom, on November 16.

Mr.- Baring is thirty years old. He

' is the son of the late Hon. Thomas C.

Baring and a cousin of Lord Revel-
stoke, whose father was the head of
the firm of Baring Brothers & Co.

 

Race Riot still on.

Jackson, Miss, Oct. 25.—The race
trouble at Harpersville, near here, is
still unsettled. Constable Thompson’s
posse, reinforced by scores of white
men from the surrounding country,
is still after the negro Bill Burke, and
his friends. More bloodshed is looked
for.

The whole neighborhood, for miles
around, is in an uproar,
white man is armed.

Burke and his friends are barricaded
in his cabin, where they have been ever
since Saturday night, when an attempt
was made to arrest Burke on the
charge of attempting to murder a
white man, Charles Freeman.

Up to yesterday morning one white
man, Henry Sibley, had been killed and
three others wounded. Ten negroes
had been killed.

The fight raged all day Sunday. Four
of the negro rioters were captured on
Sunday night, taken to the town of
Forest. and lodged in jail.

There are about fifty negroes in the
party of Burke, it is believed, and there
were others ambushed in the neighbor-
hood.

The whites have surrounded the
place. More white men are constantly
arriving there all fully armed.

Governor McLaurin is at the scene of
the trouble, together with his brother,
Prosecuting Attorney Sylvester Mc-
Laurin, Judge JohnEnochs and Con-
gressman Patrick Henry.

 

House a Century Old Burned.

Braintree, Mass, Oct. 25.—The old
Thayer house, ‘which was built more
than one hundred years ago, was de—
stroyed by fire Sunday morning. It was
owned by W. B. Simmons and occupied
by Benjamin Curtin. Curtin lost near-
ly all of his personal effects.-

A high wind blew the chimney down
later in the day, and Frank Ross, sev_
en years old, was struck by a falling
brick and his skull fractured.

OUR ANSWER TO SPAIN

Emphatic Position Taken on the
Cuban Deb-t Question. .

TIRED OF SPANISH DELAY

The Will Not Assume the Debt. of Cuba

and the Spanish Commission is so In-

formed. Porto Rican and Ladronen

Questions-When They Are'Finislch the .

Philippines Will Be Taken Up.

Washington, D. 'C., Oct. 25.—At yes-
terday's meeting of the peace commis-
sion in Paris the American commis-
sioners were ordered to deliver to their
adversaries something very closely ap-
proaching an ultimatum. The presi—
dent is satisfied at last that the Span-
ish commissioners are purposely delay-
ing the negotiations. This is the be-
lief of the American commission also.
The time has now come to cut off all
false pleas and to come directly to the
main issues left open by the protocol,
namely, the dispositipn of the Philipé
pines. “

Up... to this point the entire time of
the peace commissioners has been con-
sumed in repeated efforts on the part

of the Spanish commissioners to force
, the Cuban debt question upon the at-
.' tention of the joint commission against

the firm opposition of the American
commissioners. The latter have stated
as positively'as they could that under
no circumstances will they assume
sovereignty over Cuba, involving an
assumption of the Cuban debt, and the
time has now come when, .in the opin-

‘ ion of the American commissioners, the

rated. One reason is that notices have
;: that this answer is final and conclu-

been posted in and around the mines
saying that no insurance would be
paid.

Pit Boss Franklin has resigned, say-
ing that he could not risk his life with
the careless negro miners.

Harry Stephens, the negro who led
the riot of three weeks ago, has left
for Alabama, saying that he had had
enough of‘Pana. ‘ Other negroes accom-
panied him.

The militia, it is said, will leave this
week, Troop B returning to Blooming—
ton. to-day. ..

The negro miners have secured a
preacher and organized a. church. A
negro school also will be opened with
a negro instructor from Alabama.

Big Blaze in Brooklyn. .
Brooklyn, Oct. 25.—Flames which de-

because of which several lives may be
lost, started yesterday afternoon in a.
cargo of jute on Pier No.39 in South
Brooklyn and made such rapid head-
way that Within two nours from the
time the fire was discovered the build—
ings on three city blocks, the wharves
and bulkheads along the bay front for
an equal distance and several vessels
riding at anchor in the bay were on
fire.

From three o’clock until dark the fire

lasted. The flames were fed on bun--

dreds of bales of cotton and shiploads
of jute and barrels of resin and tur-
pentine and alcohol.

 

Anarchists on Kaiser’s Trail.

Haifa, Palestine, Oct. 25.—The police
made an important arrest of a well
known Anarchist here yesterday.

Extraordinary precautions are being
taken to insure the safety of Emperor

in the streets, as the police fear that
Anarchists might assume this dis-
guise.

Alexandria, Oct. 25.-An Italian An-
archist was arrested here yesterday.
He was a passenger on a steamer
bound for Palestine.

 

Spanish Cabinet Council.

Madrid, Oct. 25.—A cabinet council
has unexpectedly assembled to consid-
er, it is announced, the questions in-
volved in the repatriation of the Span-
ish troops and communications from
the Spanish peace commission.

ister of war, General Correa, has ,re-
signed. '

The premier, Senor Sagasta, does not
deny this, but he says this matter will
not be submitted to the council.

The promised manifesto of Don Car-
los, the pretender, is expected at any
hour.

Quarters for Tox'pcdoboat.

Washington, Oct. 25.400nstructor
Bowles of the Brooklyn navy yard vis—
ited the navy department yesterday to

ter of eight torpedo beats that have

Marriage of Gen. Merritt in London.

London, Oct. 25. --_Major General Wes-
ley Merritt, who was recently in com-
mand of the United States troops at.
Manila, was married privately Monday
afternoon to Miss Laura Williams of
Chicago, who recently arrived here
from New York.

Spaniards must be made to understand

sive.
So far the American commissioners,
while preserving a firm attitude, have

- treated the Spaniards with the utmost

courtesy and Consideration, allowing
frequent postponements of the work of
the joint commission to accommodate
the Spaniards, but now, without de-

f parting from their courteous treatment
._' of the Spaniards, the Ameiican com-

" missioners

find it incumbent upon

them to speak veiy plainly as to the

determination of the United States
government in regard to this matter of
the Cuban debt and Cuban sovereignty

' as passed over and beyond recall.

 

The Sum Covnuiissiuns BI‘eet.
Pa1is,Oct. 25.—-—The American peace

' commissmners we re 1n session yester—

stroyed property worth $600,000, and ' day from 10 a

: when they repaired to the joint

to almost 2 p. m.,
ses-

n1.

‘ SiOI'l.

They took with them a carefully

. prepared written answer to the amen-

ded proposals of the Spaniards regard-
ing Cuba.

It is understood that the American.
reply is to a certain degree in the na-
ture of a. compromise proposal. '

The consideration by the commissions
of the Porto Rican and Ladrones ques-

5tions has now been merged with the

 

 

Cuban question and all the points in-
volved are being carried forward to a
simultaneous conclusion. When this
has been arrived at the Philippines

'question will be taken up.

Of course there is a possibility of a.
disagreement, and the Spaniards, if
the American commissioners decide not
to assume any portion of the Cuban
indebtedness, may announce their un-
willingness to proceed any farther with
negotiations based upon the protocol.
Should the Spaniards decide to do this,
it will be because they wish to excite
the pity of their creditors and of other
nations.

The Cortes may then be asked to in-
dorse their action.

In fact, Spain may even prefer a re-
sumption of hostilities to acquiescence
in the American refusal to share their
financial burden.

The Americans, however, have inti-
mated to the Spaniards the possibility
that Spain may at some future period
be able to deal with an independent
Cuban government regarding the as-
sumption of the provincial and munici-
pal portions of the cub-an debt, which
is estimated to have been $150,000,000
before the last rebellion in Cuba broke
out and $500,000,000 contracted since
1895.

But, should independent Cuba, as she
doubtless would, refuse to assume more
than her proportion of the debt. based
on actual betterments in Cuba, and
only, even in this case of obligations
contracted previous to 1895, Spain
would be compelled to appeal to her
people and confront them with practi-
cally seven-eighths of the debt con-
tracted before the last revolution and
the Whole $500,000,000 contracted since.

Spain would also be compelled to de-
clare her inability to meet her obliga-
tions, and this, at present, seems to the
Spaniards a. more bitter alternative
than to accept the United States’ re-
fusal to share the Cuban debt, with
all that this means, the idea. being that
the Spaniards would be able to call the
attention of their creditors to the un-
yielding, though fruitless efforts in
their behalf.

Finally, it is said that there are per-
sons high in the Spanish councils who
claim to believe that Spain would
rather submit dumbly and helplessly
to decimation or dismemberment than
confront this continued financial bur-
den.

One course would leave her pride un-
sullied, it is claimed, and the other
.5 regarded as doubtful, if not impos-
sible of adoption within the boundaries
of national solvency.

 

”.Mrs. Gulll’ord Extradited.

London, Oct. 25.—Dr. Nancy Guilford,
the Bridgeport, Conn. midwife, who is
wanted in that city upon a charge of
30mpliclty in the murder of Emma Gill,
was formally extradited in the Bow
street police court yesterday.

Solicitor Wilson, Mrs. Guilford’s
:ounsel, said that he had read the evi-
dence and upon the strength of it he
could not resist his client’s extradi-
tion. ‘

The statement that the prisoner had
made a confessionu, he said, was in-
correct. On the contrary she had al-
ways denied her guilt.

Detective Cronan of Bridgeport rec-
)gnized the accused as Dr. Gdilford, of
51 Gilbert street, Bridgeport, Conn.
