tate JuRIsDIcTIoS.-The u. {. Supreme
Court has recently made an important de.
rlslon N reference 10 the jurisdiction which
Il state can exercise over rivers flowing
through its limits. The case arose under q
Prosecution instituted against steamer
'haF"ed with navigating Fox river, Wis
ro';sn, without first having been inspected
ana taken ont license under the acts OF
congress. The owners Of the steamer con-
Tended that she was navigating the waters
under the jurisdiction OF the State Of Wis
'nn>ln, and therefore was not subject to
NE acts OF Congress. The court, however,
held that river is a navigable water Of the
hlted states, when by itself or in connec-
ton with other waters it forms Il continu-
Gus highway over which commerce is or
may be carried on with other States, or with
foreign countries, in the customary modes
III which such commerce is conducted by
water. If river is not Of itself q highway
10y Its connections with other waters, and is
"uly nayigable between different places
within the State, then the court held it is
not naYi%able river Of the United States,
nut only nayigable water Of the State
