Scott Liquor Law Void.

CLEVELAND, Olis, Oct. 2s.-The Su-
prene Court, three judges affirming and two
dissenting, to-day declared the Scott liquor
tax law as unconstitutional. The decisions
In several pending cases are all to this effect.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 2S.-The majority
of the Court held that the lien clause Of the
Scott law 10 a license law, therefore the
whole act is void. No opinion is expr essed
as to whether the law is void As q tax or
license law.
The decision stripped Of its verbiage de-
clares the entire law unconstitutional, and
will not only do away with the collection Of
tax this year, only small portion Of which
has been paid, but will make It necessary
for all corporations To pay back the amount
which was collected under the law last wear,
together with interest. 1t will bankrupt
nearly all the cities In the State, as The leyies
for the year were made on the supposition
that the law was constitutional and would
bring into the treasures of counties and
cities . stipulated amount OF msney. In
Columbus, for example, between s45, 900 and
$4,000 were realized from the tax last year.
and none Of the amount has been paid this
year. The consequence Is the departments
are behind In the payment Of salaries two or
three months. Other cities of the State are
similarly situated. The great question with
municipal and county authorities is, how
will they secure immediate relief from the
embarrassing situation, the Leglsla ture not
being In session 10 grant authority.

The Eayptian Elephant,

LONDON, Oct, 27.-Recent official CORES.
pondence relating to Egyptian affairs have
been made public. A letter Of instruction
from the Government to General Wolseley
stated tho object Of the expedition was to
bring Gordon and Stuart from Khartoum.
No further offensive operations thar should
prove necessary to secure this end would be
permitted. Neither the English nor the
Egyptian government was prepared to as
sumo the responsibility Of the government
Of the Nile valley beyond wady Halfs,
though they would be glad to see an indie
pendent government established At Khar-
toum which would keep peace with Egypt,
encourage commerce and proven. the slave
trade. When It was known that General
Gordon had sent Stewart to burn Berber, the
government directed Kitchener to send .
counter order to Col. Stewart.
LONDON, Oct. 27.--In letter dated April
20, General Gordon writes he has offered
freedom and pay TO the slaves who deserted
the Mahdi. This policy, be hopes, will
sound the doom Of slavery la Soudan. He
declares II Shendy Il captured BY the rebels
Il will be due to the governments failure to
send See-Bs-Her Pasha to him. He ex.
presses the hope that for the sake Of the
honor Of England that Abyssinians have not
been engaged TO fight Enslands battles.

A Great Storm in China and Japan.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 27.--The steamer
Arabic which arrived yesterday from China
and Japan, brings the following further de-
tails of the great typhoon which Sept. 10th,
caused such terrible destruction OF life and
property at Yokohama and Tekio. The
storm came so rapidly and with such ire
mendous fury that no precautions could be
taken. The inhabitants made no attempt
TO save their property, but ned for their
lives to escape drowning from the rushing
waters driven on land BY the fury Of the
wind. The newspapers male no attempt to
furnish any details Of the destruction OF that
city, but summarize BY saying: "a settle
msnt has been destroyed. It Is useless to
publish any Details" The higher portion Of
the city being more exposed the destruction
was equal to that 10 the unfortunate burned
part. Several Of the largest and most sub.
stantial buildings were swept away As II
built of pasteboard. In that section alone
1913 houses were destroyed and 800 damaged
The loss of life on shore was less than thai
at sea. Out Of 80 coasting vessels 53 were
lost, with 223 persons aboard. Twelve yes
sells with 120 people are missing. OF five
lite boats that went to the rescue Of the
drowning crews, four were swamped and tel
of their crews drowned. The typhoon wa,
the severest experienced since 1870.

matter lie SO transparent that no harm 10 re-

give the following exposition Of 1t from the

went from San Francisco to Ireland for his
health. Without having given any real

He appealed to Mr.. Lowell, Minister At Lon
don, and TO Mr.. Blaine, Secretary Of State,
which functionanes did not pursue any en-.
ergetic measures for bis release, but, after
some calm inquiry, allowed him to languish
In DundAIk Jail without threat or protest.

protect that upright and inofiensive Ameri-
can citizen McSweeney In ireland.
"The truth Of the case appears TO be that
McSweeney LEFT California In 1877 and re-.
turned TO his native Irish heath taking all
his possessions with him and intending to
remain permanently. He invested in prop
erty In Ireland, spilled for . Government
position, which he finally succeeded In get
ting, and took the oath Of allegiance to the
British Government, rs his acceptance Of an
appo!ntive Office made 1t necessary for him
to do. In the riots and demonstrations
against English rule which led to the enact
ment by Parliament Of the coercion act, Mr..
McSweeney made himself extremely active.
He was not In good odor with the national
leaders, however, and set up as an agitator
on bis own account. The coercion act Is q
measure which we have no disposition to
justify. But certainly that enactment would
never have occasioned the storm of indigns-
ton which 1t raised In the Irish World, II
only such individuals as Mr.. Mes weeney had
been taken into custody under its provisions.
"The United States authorities found that
Mr.. McSweeney was not in Ireland merely
as an American sojournsr, but as resident
and an active participant In demonstrations
against a government with which the United
States was on friendly terms and they took
the sound position that on foreign territory
an American citizen who violates the law
must submit to the same penalties as tho
subjects Of that foreign country. 1t is quite
true that the extraordinary character Of the
coercion act lifted arrests made under Its
provisions out of the ordinary category Of ar.
rest. But Mr.. insolvency had so clearly
forfeited bis claim to protection on the
ground OF American citizenship, that the
United States Government recognized no
duty Of interference"

these purists; some have recanted but the

tered Ia as an alienation Of largely Repub.
