for interesting American capital
from private sources in the enter
prise. Capt. w. Parker Snow, of
the British Mercantile Marine, who
was one of the early searchers for
the lost crews of the Ercbbs and
TIror, was written letter to Lieu
tenant Schwatka asking his co opera
ton in another expedition. Capt.
Snow proposes to get up new
search by Lancaster Sound westerly,
then back to the magnetic pole for
anything more of Franklins party,
afterward going through to Behring
Straits.
Decision OF Interest.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The fol-
lowing was among the business
transacted in the Supreme Court to-
day: Isaac W. Lord, plaintiff in
error, VS.. Goodail, Nelson a. Per-
kins Steamship Company, in error
to tho Circuit Court of the United
States for the district of California.
This was suit brought by the plain
tiff in error against the Steamship
Company to recover the value of a
quantity of goods shipped by him
from San Francisco to Los Angeles
and San Diego, California, on the
company's steamer Ventura, which
was lost through negligence, as it is
asserted, of her officers. The court
below charged that the provisions of
Section 4 ,2S9 of the Revised Statutes
of the United States exempted own
crs of vessels from all liability where
damages occur through the neglig-
ence of the master, but without the
knowledge and privity of the owners,
n verdict and Il judgment were there
fore rendered in favor of the defend
ants. The plaintiff in error here
contends that steamer running
from port in some State is subject
to the State and not to the federal
laws, and that under the laws of
California the defendants in error
are liable. The court holds that
vessel upon the high seas even though
she be running from port TO port i'll
the same State is in every just sense
engaged in commerce with foreign
nations, and that, therefore, she and
the business in which she is engaged
are subject to the regulation of the
power of Congress, the shippers of
the goods in controversy had been
content with the facilities for trans
portation which California, as aState,
possessed, their contracts would
have been governed by the laws,
but since their goods enjoy the pro-
lection of the United States while on
the high seas, they must submit to
tho rules and regulations which the
Government has prescribed for the
protection of those who engage in
that kind of commerce. Judgment
affirmed with costs.

to carry II out, he deplored the evils oil
intemperanee as much as any Senator
could, but would this diminish the
amount of intemperanee? We border
on five other States and Intoxicating
liquors could be obtained in any Oh
these.
Another objection to the amendment
is that il is mere experiment Tor TINS
State. IL is true IL has been tried else
where. In Ohio they have had no IL
cense, and by testimony OF great states
men II has had q bad effect. In Maine
he thought that Blaine could be no
Judge OF the good effect o: prohibition,
since by his associations in Washington
and other places, he shows himself to be
man of intemperate habits. He quoted
from letter from T. II. Muth, strong
temperance man OF ROcSlahd, Maine,
who believed the prohibliory Law IN
Maine has had the effect to increase the
number OF saloons. AT Rockland there
are forty open saloons, place OF only
1000 persons.
BY the report OF the L. Commis-
sioners OF Maine for the past year, II
was shown that there were 75I licensed
LIQUOR houses, and he stated that here
in West Virginia (the States being about
the same siZe) there were only 72i
More in prohibitory Maine than in free
West Virginia. Do these figures lsad us
to believe that the prohihitory law in
Maine has been such a brilliant success?
Again, this amendment IS opposed to
the idea OF local self government. What
right have the people of Richie county
10 say that Ohio county shall not grant
licenses if they desire to? IL is local
matter and foreign people have no right
TO interfere. Each county has the night
to use its own discression upon this sub
ject. Every County Court has the right
to grant license or not, as IL may please,
and the people elect the County Court,
50 they can very easily determine the
matter. There are as complete laws
regulating the sale OF ardent spirits in
this State as in any other State in the
Union.
Another great objection is that this
measure provides no compensation 10
pay the loss which will fall upon the
manufacturers should such a law pass.
You propose to ruin the property OF
these people and give them no compen-
sation for it. He stated that by actual
count the petitioners for this measure
only reached a little more than 1000, in
the only petition which he had seen
many of the names were signed in the
same hand writing.
A vote was then taken with the iol-
lowing result:
Those voting in the affirmative were,
Davission, Dennis, DonehoO, Ewin,
Faulkner, Maxwell, McNeel, Newman,
Roberts, Shelton, Stollings, Stout, Van
Meter, Williams and Woods ID.
Those who voted in the negative were
Messrs. Summers, Barbee, Brown, Daw-
son, Farnsworth, McGrew, McGregor,
Samples and Smith,.
II was then moved that the vote by
which the resolution was indefinitely
postponed be reconsidered and that the
vote be tabled. Carried.
ihe bill for State Board OF Health
was then considered for a few minutes,
but without final action the Senate adj
iourned until 10 A. NJ. to-day.
