NEW YORK, July 9-The World
( says: Judge Field has secured him.
n self a conspicuous place in Kear-
ney's next oration by deciding the
statute of California invalid which
prescribes the cutting off of queues
of Cinnamon. He is said to have
decided that the ordinance was in
conflict with the fourteenth amend
I ment Of the Constitution. But we
have doubts upon that point. In
order to bring the queues of CHI
namen under the aegis of this
amendment it Is necessary that
Chipamen are citizens Of the
United States, as queue. wearing
Cinnamon certainly are not, and
that their queues ''are privileges or
immunities,n (which belong to them
as citizens of the United States and
therefore are not to be abridged.
/ We are confident that Judge Field
did not make either of these as
sumptiOns.

Ia pers, who act as village constables,
