POND LAW GONE UP.
The Pond Law Declared UncOn-
stitutiOnal.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, May 3O.-There was
a large attendance in the Supreme
Courtroom this morning to hear the de-
cisiOn af the Court in the cases brought
from Crawford county to test the con-
stitutiOnality of the Pond Law. AS 10
O'Clock, the hour at which Court con-
yened, approached, the chamber filled
up with attorneys and citizens, all eager
to know the result. The Justices filed
in and took their accustomed seats, and
Immediately upon the cTieT announcing
the opening of the Court, Chief Justice
Okey began announcing opinions. The
Pond Law cases were the last to be
reached. The first was that of the State
of Ohio, on the relation of Daniel Roth,
vs.. Frederick Hipp, Probate Judge of
Crawford county. Application for man
| damus peremptOry writ was refused, the
| Chief Justice stating briefly that the
| Court was of the opinion that the act
was in effect license TO traffic in intOX-
icating liquors, and therefore in conflict
| with Schedule Eighteen of the COnstiUu-
tiOn, which provides that no license to
traffic in intoxicating liquors shall be
granted.
Judge Okey then read the syllabus of
the case, which was afterwards amend
ed and appears in full as follows:
The State of Ohio on relation to Dan
Judge of Crawford county. Mandamus,
Okey, c. j.
1. The cOnstitutiOnality of statute
depends upon its operation and effect,
and not upon the form it may be made
to assume.
2. A license is permission granted by
some competent authority to do an act,
which, without such permission, would
be illegal.
3, The act of April 5, 1882, entitled
"An act more effectually to provide
against the evils resulting from the
traffic in Intoxicating liquors, (79, Ohio
Laws, 66), which requires every person
engaged or engaging in such traffic to
pay specific sum Of money annually,
and execute bond as therein required,
and also provides that "eveTy person
who shall engage or continue in such
traffic, without having executed the
bond shall have been adjudged forfeited,
shall be deemed guilty of misdemean-
or, is in its operation and effect Ii
cense within the inhibition of the sec
tiOn of the Constitution, which provides
that "NO license to traffic in intoxicat-
ing liquors shall hereafter be granted
in this State" Writ refused.

point of the syllabus.

Akron district took place. Upwards of
$50 miners, representing 400 miners,
were in attendance. John Whalen, of
WadswOrth, was Chairman, and State
Secretary John H. Williams Secretary.
The meeting was addressed by President
Mcbride, of the State Association, John
Whalen, Richard Harris, of ThOmastOwn
and Secretary Williams. The following
resolutions were unanimously adopt
ed:
Whereas. However unjust we know it
to he in consequence of the present con-
ditiOn of affairs, be it
Resolved. That we no longer consid-
er the present strike for ten cents per
ton advance.
Resolved. That we approve of the con-
duct of President Mcbride in all his
connection with our mining inter
ests.
The fact that MassillOn miners had
resolved to continue at the old price had
much to do in bringing the above re-
suit about. Miners will probably re-
sumo work at once.
About Pittsburg the mining conflicts
are more or less serious. The strikers
are becoming incensed at the determi-
nation of the operators to fill their places
with the cloudy importation from the
Hooking Valley, and threaten trouble.
1t is reported that they have succeeded
in influencing train men on the Pan
handle division to refuse to man trains
laden with coal mined by the cOlOred
cOllieTs.
At Cleveland the indications are that
the lockout at the rolling mills will be
pTOtracted. On Friday, last week a
grand parade and mass meeting was had
and speeches were made in English,
German, Bohemian and Polish. The
number on parade was over two thou
sand. President Jewett, of the Anal
gamated Association was in attendance
and brought with him the first money
contributed to the strikers.

BLAINE IN MAINE.
why He Will Not be a Candidate
for Congress.

A Republican lawyer from Maine ex-
pressed himself to Herald reporter as
follows: "It seems to be settled that if
Mr.. Blaine runs he will swamp the
ticket; the leaders have decided that he
must not run. He could go into the
Convention if he chose and get the
nomination, but his election is an utter
impossibility. For the first time in his
life he would have to appeal to Republi-
can voters all over the State, and the
men who have always distrusted him
and antagOniZed him would not be en-
thusiastic for him now.
"When we had 10000 or q, 900 majority
at every contested election, disseDC didn't
matter much, but could easily be
crushed out. But the crushed were not
converted. The Democrats have had
two of the last three Governors, and the
State is so close that $500 majority is
something no shrewd politician Of either
party would claim for this fall.
"The principal newspaper opponent
of Mr., Blaine, in the party, has been Mr..
Richardson of the Portland Advertiser.
The Morrill, influence is not sympathetic
with Mr.. Blaine, and it is quite an in
fluence, too. Lot M. Morrill, is still Col
lectOr of Portland, and Judge Goddard,
who is Postmaster there, and an ugly
fighter, too, when he does fight, is on
the same side. All over the State west
of the Kennebec you will find this ele-
ment,
Not only does Mr.. Blaine see the
danger of being beaten if he headed the
ticket, but he is convinced that he would
make more enemies than friends by
allowing his name to be used in the
Convention. He won't allow it. All
the work which the postal agents, who
are about as efficient set Of workers,
considering their numbers, as we have
among us, have done will amount to
nothing, except in the way of showing
Blaine the drift of public sentiment.
Here you see, 1 hope, the wisdom of his
scheme. He denied all along that he was
a candidate. He told Steve Lindsey
and everybody else he was not, and, if
he didn't know, who did? But he let
Manley and Bigelow and the rest of
them test public sentiment. They have
given him returns enough to satisfy
him, and I'll warrant you he won't run
for Congress in Maine this year."
"But won't he run for Governor, hav-
ing such confidence in his starP"
"He has not been announced as can
didate, anyway."-ROstOn Herald.

officials claim that these false issues are
cOunterfeits, and that their character
may be detected by comparison. Yet we
learn that the test has been applied to
them, to the confusion of these officials.
COunterfeits of certain United States
bonds were produced some fifteen years
ago, and the mystery attached to them
has never been cleared up, and never
will be until the Republican party is
driven from power. When that change
takes place, then the people will know
for the first time why the great ledgers
of the Treasury were mutilated, why
balances were forced and why the state
ment of public debt were altered to the
extent of more than hundred millions.

HOME AGAIN.
Return Of Lieut.. DanenhOwer
and Party.
Sad Condition of the BOatswain lack
Cole Rendered Insance by North
ern Hardships.

NEW YORK, May 2S.-The steamship
Celtic, bearing Lieutenant DanenhOweT,
DR.. NewcOmb, Jack Cole and Charles Ton
Sing, survivors of the Arctic steamer
Jeanette, arrived early to-day. When
the vessel was reported off Fire Island,
a party, consisting of immediate rela-
tives and friends of the YOyagers, started
in tug to meet them. AS the tug ran
along side the Celtic, Lieut.. DanenhOwer
leaped on board and affectiOnately en-
bTaced his mother and father, and was
warmly welcomed home by the others.
Lieut.. DanenhOwer then invited his re-
latiYes and friends to his cabin on the
steamer, and presented them all to his
associate survivors. The party then
listened to a recital of the dreadful suf
ferings in the far North and the tale of
the fate of Commander DeLOng and his
men until the steamer reached her dock.
Arrived there, the Lieutenant was sur
rounded by cOngratulating friends, who
had gathered to give him hearty well
come, and they did.
While all this was happening on the
upper deck, far different scene was
presented in the small cabin below.
There, with his arms piniOned behind
him, was
POOR JACK COLE,
bOatswain of the Jeaunette, crazy from
long suffering. His brother, Thomas
Cole, and his son John were quick to go
to him, and the unfortunate man imme-
diately recognized them, affectiOnately
greeting both. 1t was sad to see the
weeping son, sOrrOwing brother, and de-
mented father. Immediately after
speaking to his son, his mind again
wandered and he was once more away
among the ice fields, struggling with
the fate threatening him. He will be
sent to the asylum.
Lieut.. DanenhOwer said, in answer
to inquiries concerning his voyage, that
he was not as yet prepared to talk.
There will be thorough, searching eX-
animation" said he, land then people
can see how this matter stands. So far
as the suffering is concerned, we did
suffer, and suffered terribly. See my
eyesl Some say shall lose the sight of
both. hope not. One, the left one, is
almost entirely blind, but the other ap-
pears at present to be all right"
DR.. Newcomb, who accompanied the
Jeanette expedition as naturalist, was
very indignant over the treatment OF
Melville, and termed it cOwaTdly, mean
and deserving the highest censure
"Why," said the doctor, 81 was so in
censed when l read those base charges
against Melville that | was on the point
of writing letter to the press of America
on the subject, but on reflection con-
cluded to wait. want to say that what
is charged against Melville is untrue as
it is cOwaTdly.
Lieut.. DanenhOwer said of the lost
members of the Jeannette crew that pos
sibly an oar or small portion of their
boat might be found, but that would be
all. Charlie Ton Sing, the Chinaman
steward of the Jeanette, said, when
asked if he would go again, with funny
grin: "Yes, mebbe." He appeared the
strongest of the four, and viewed with
an air of stOicism all his surroundings.

BOGUS BONDS.
A Genuine Plate Stolen From
the Treasury.


NEW YORK, May 27.-The Sun, in a
leading editorial, says: 1t is of the first
importance that the result of the in
vestigation now going on at the Treas
ury Department in regard to the alleged
fraudulent or forged issues of Govern
ment bonds and other paper should be
made known in all its details and in an
official form as soon as possible. That
is the only way in which the public
mind can be satisfactorily tranquilized,
and the holders of these securities can
feel that they are in possession of the
whole truth, whatever it may be.
1t is now known that plate used for
spurious issues of the six per cent. bonds,
which expired in 1880, similar to those
for which Doyle was recently convicted
at Chicago, has been delivered to the
Secretary of the Treasury, and that this
plate is not counterfeit. How it was
obtained, and from whom, and at what
time, are mysteries yet to be cleared up.
This stern fact, which we believe to be
established by the highest expert testi-
mOny, is we'll calculated to cause alarm
and anxiety.
Ofcourse the conspirators who engaged
in the business of putting out these
false bonds, and who necessarily in
CURED large expense in their prepara-
tion, expected great returns. Accord
ing to one statement, which is yet to be
verified, they printed nearly twenty-five
millions. 1t is alleged that the spuri-
GUS bonds are so perfect as hardly to be
distinguishable from the genuine issues,
because they were printed from genu-
inc plate. The general public is, there
fore, at the mercy of this formidable and
dangerous combination of fOrgers, cOun-
terfeiters and their confederates in and
out of Office.
A belief obtains, whether well-found-
ed or not, that genuine plates of the
silver certificates have also been pro-
cured as those of the bonds were OBJ
tained. This belief may, however, be
the Outgrowth of the excitement which
now naturally agitates the Treasury
Department. Some of the interested
