Of Mr.. Crawford, except the widely-her-

therefore nothingto do with my interest in

the more surprised at the originality Of

contradict the commonly received rule on

a very poorly arranged, if not incorrect

and the threat that his life would pay the
forfeit if he fired. Seeing all the odds
against him he dropped his rife, and thus
the mob we're in possession of the field.

THE SCOTT LAW IN OHIO.
Declared Unconstitutional Hy the
 Supreme Court.

OcC1aEeO the
 Supreme Court.
 CoLUMBUs, O., Oct. 28.-The Supreme court-three judges assenting and two dis senting-to day declared the Scott liquor tax law unconstitutional. The decisions on the several pending cases were all to this effect. The majority of the court held that the lien clause of the Scott law is a license law, therefore the whole act is void. No opinion is expressed as to whether the law is void as a tax or license law.
 The decision of the Supreme court that the Scott law is unconstitutional will bankrupt nearly all the cities in the State, as levies for the year were made on the supposition that the law was constitutional and would bring into the treasuries of the counties and cities stipulated sum of money. In Colum- bus, for instance, between s45, ,O00 and s5O,- 900 were realized from the tax last year and none of the amount has been paid this year. The great question with municipal and county authorities is how they will secure immediate relief from the embarrassing situ- ation, the legislature not being in session to grant authority.
 CINCINNATI, O., Oct. 28.-The announce ment that the Scott law had been declared unconstitutional created considerable inter- est and comments. Thomas Douglas, attor- ney for Hamilton county in the Scott suits, says: Politically it must prove disastrous to the Democratic party. The decision reaches the masses of the people everywhere who are by it compelled to pay over again their taxes. There are none more warmly in favor of the law than the Germans since the effect of it has been experienced. It is an unfortunate de- cision for everybody, but I do not propose to critieise it at this time. It has been made by our court of highest resort, whose decisions we are bound to respect" General Michael Ryan Oem.) said: q never thought the law constitutional. I never believed it so be- ieve and advocate that the liquor business should be taxed. Now let us have constitutional amendment to that effect" General Hickenlooper Rep.) says: E'This means an increase of the Repub- ican vote and an increase of taxation com polling us to borrow S1, 800, ,000." f'It will give the State to the Republicans for ten days" said John A. Shank, a Democrat, who thinks the law just one.
 NEW YORK, October 29.-A Columbus, o. dispatch says the decision against the con stitutionality of the Scott law was rendered by three Democratic judges, two Republican judges dissenting. The dispatch adds: 'FIt is not thought the decision will affect the November election greatly the liquor men who may go back to the Democrats will be offset by Democratic taxpayers not in the liouor business"

 BALTIMORE, Oct. 28.-Mr. Kerr's aIgu- ment in the Hazeltine trial was concluded at 4:30 and was not considered remarkable effort Judge Phelps then charged the jury and gave the case into their hands, after which the court took recess until 8 p. m.
 At that hour the court reconYened. The prisoner took his seat in the dock, but the chair that has been occupied by Mrs. Hazel tine during the trial was vacant, she having been prevailed upon to remain away from court because of the fear that she might break down. The usual questions were asked the jury and verdict of man. slaughter was returned, the highest penalty attached to which is ten years in the peni- tentiary. Sentence will not be passed for few days. It was the general belief that verdict of murder in the first degree would be given The prisoner heard the verdict without any visible emotion.
