The Fire Uadertcriters,

The closing session of the Underwriters
Fire Insurance union for Minnesota, Wis
consin and Dakota was held at the Nicollet

been left, and accordingly decided to raise
rates throughout its jurisdiction. Each
town in its jurisdiction has local COM
mittee apE ointed by the president, and
thirty two reported. The following officers
were elected: President,.C. W. Kibber, St.
Paul; vice presidents, Judge E. B. Ames,
Minneapolis; Col. j. F. Bulls, Dubuque;
secretary, Il. G. Hall. The next annual
meeting will be held in st. Paul
the third Tuesday in April. Several
members spoke of the working of the
Minneapolis fire department. AS wit
messed by them on Tuesday night it as
tonished them. They had never seen its
equal.

Mysterious Performances at the Dominic

Mysterious Performances at the Dominion
Capital.
OTTAWA, April 1S.-The report of the
shooting last night causes uneasiness in
some quarters and in others the affair is
regarded as hoax. In the vice regalIresi-
dence there is some alarm. The cabinet
council have considered the matter. A
policeman thus tells the story: Shortly
after midnight the attention of Officer
Geddis as attracted by the report of a
pistol shot from the grove above and mid
way between the government house and
the residence of Lieut.. Col. DeWinton
Following in quick succession were three
other shots. Geddes made a rush
in the direction of the grove,
and observed the form of a tall
man retreating. Remembering that he
had implicit instructions from the super
intendont OF police not to leave his post on
any account, he returned to his beat and
the party escaped. Officer Patton, on an
adjoining beat, met Geddes returning, and
also heard the shots. The superintendent
of police attaches little Importance to the
occurrence, and implies that the officers
who reported the matter were drawing on
their imagination for facts. In the vicinity
Of the grove there is a small lake, and it is
asserted the shots were fired by French
man who occasionally shoots muskrats
which abound there. A Toronto detective
states that one man is under surveillance,
and an arrest might be affected within the
next twenty-four hours which might throw
light on some mysterious movements.

THE Supreme Court of the United
States has rendered decision upon
five cases brought before them, in
which they declare the civil rights
bill unconstitutional. The first and
second sections of the bill, which are
IN fact the material ones, are cOnsid-
cred, and Justice Bradley with the
concurrence of all the Justice but
Harlan decides that Congress had no
constitutional authority to pass the
sections i'm question, under either the
thirteenth or fourteenth amend
ments to the constitution. 1t decides
that the fourteenth amendment is
prOhibitory upon the States only and
that Congress can iegislate upon 1t
only when necessary to correct and
redress abuses of State laws when
made in conflict with its provisions.
Alec that the thirteenth amendment
gave no power to Congress to pass the
sections referred to. AZ il relates only
to slavery and involuntary servitude.
The gist of the whole decision then
is that us Congress has no power to
pass law INJECTING penalties for the
violation OF right over which States
have control. the bill cannot be
enforced by Omitted States laws. The
decision affects only the validity of
the law i'm the States, and not in ter.
