there was no law by which the acts complained OF

charged. According 10 this decision no master has
any protection from disobedience. dessrtion o.

AS TO THE FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTs
AS yet no arrangements have been made in re-

1t will be delayed until Mrs. Waite can arrive, and
that the remains will probably be carried to Ohio
for fnterment
TIE NEWS AT THE CAPITOL
The death OF the Chief Justice was so sudden
that members could scarcely credit the first report
OF that reached them Most OF them did not
hear of the sad occurrence until they got 10 the
Capltoi at III O'Clock, or even later The shock OF
GRIEF was universal. The Chief Justice was known

Dy large group OF statesmen. His genial and
agreeaoie disposition made him great fayorite.
THIS is THE FIRST TINE
In the history OF the nation that Chief Justice

predecessors Of Chief Justice Waite passed away
during recess Of Congress.
THE SENATE COMMITTEE.
The President OF the Senate appointed Senators

the late Chief Justice
THR PRESIDENT SHOCKED BY THE NEWS.
The President was informed OF the death Of
Chief Justice Waite at about s O'Clock by Col
Lamont, who was at his residence preparing to go
TO the White House, when a messenger arrived
with note from Mr.. c. C. Waite, son OF the Chief
Justice, announcing that his father died this
morning. He requested Col. Lamont
to notify the President. The colonel also received
note from DR.. Ruth, U. S. N, giving him the
same Information and few details OF the cause Of
the death In addition. The colonel proceeded at
once TO the White House. The President was In
the library engaged In opening his
mall when he arrived. Although the
President was aware that the Chief Justice had
been In bad health, the news OF his death shocked
him very much. There has been quite an inti-
macy between the President and the Chief Justice
since the formers entry into the White House. and
he has often been heard 10 express himself In the
highest terms OF praise OF the Chef Justice. The
President at once wrote letter TO Mrs. Waite, eX.
pressing his deep sympathy Tor her in her sudden
bereavement.

TIE DEATH OF THE CHIEF JUSTICE ANNOUNCED By
JUSTICE MILLER.
Associate Justice Miller the senior member OF
the court, after leaving the residence OF the late
Chief Justice sent invitations to his fellow-mem-
bers to meet him at the consultation-room OF the
court where they all assembled at IL O'Clock, re-
naming closeted together until noon. The Attor-
ney- y-Generai and leading members OF the bar were
present in the courtroom when the court assem-
bled, and The seats outside the rail- were led with
spectators. The chair OF the CHEF Justice was
simply draped with Grape, but In no other
respect did the appearance OF the ch1mber give
any indication OF the mournful nature OF the occa-
sion. When the court entered the chamber the
marshal announced "Ghe Honorable Associate
Justices OF the supreme Court" varying the
usual formula by the omission OF the title OF the
deceased. When the court and The assemblage
were seated Justice Miller In a low, broken voice
said: ut Is my painful duty to announce TO the
bar OF this court that It's honored Cnie Justice
parted this lie this morning at 6:30 O'clock. This
Is not the occasion TO make any extended observa-
lions Oh the subject, which Will be done in due

TO-DAY at IL o'clock the Legislature
will consider the veto of the coffee bill.
The passage OF. the ramie and the kalo
-four bills affords additional reasons why
this bill should be carried over the veto.
No doubt the veto power under extreme
conditions and with the advice of the
Cabinet might be used benefcially.
For instance, in the case supposed by our
able evening contemporary, when the
Legislature passes a bill to cut off the
head of the eldest son of every family in
the land. But this Legislature has not
and will not pass any foolish bill. In
the case now before the House, the only
question on which the members divided
was as to the particular method to be
used in assisting the coffee industry It
seems to us that if the majority of the
Legislature are to govern, and that is
now our governmental principle, the
majority should stand loyalty by that,
and not permit the establishment of an
irresponsible veto. So far the veto
power has been exercised against the
advice of His Majesty's advisers and has
resulted in such utterly unaccountable
action as the veto of the Governors bill
What has the country to say of the sup
porters of such veto? Unfortunately
for the Bulletin, the position assumed
by it will not stand the full light OF day
The bills vetoed so far have been such
as the great ma ority OF the country have
approved. They have been measures
intended to develop and express the
reform movement. Individual opinion
may differ as to methods, but the general
result has been to advance. They have
been vetoed, because the spirit of the
reform movement is contrary to the
opinions and desires of His Majesty,
and he has therefore set up his personal
opinions and desires contrary to the
overwhelming verdict of the country as
recorded September II, 1887. There is
no disrespect to the King in this. If he
chooses to disregard the advice of the
Cabinet and take pathway of his own,
he certainly cannot complain if public
criticism is directed toward him. !
If the country is asked to choose
it will follow the leadership of
a majority of the Legislature responsible
to the people, or that of an individual re-
sponsible to no one, backed up by min
GRITTY of the House, particularly where
such irresponsible leadership is evil
denced by such veto as that of the bill
to do away with Governors after having
approved of the law divesting them of all
duties, little doubt can exist as to the
choice of the people.
