The United States supreme court.
through Chief Justice Fuller, Monday
rendered an opinion adverse to the con
stitutionality of the state laws provid-
ing for the seizure OF liquor brought
into the state in original packages.
Such laws, the court holds, are an inter-
ference with the interstate commerce.
After the liquor becomes the property
of the importer, the state may under its
police powers request or prohibit its
sale, but it has no power in the absence
of express congressional authority to
prohibit the transportation of the ar
ticle from another state, and its delivery
TO the importer. The case in which the
decision was made was that Gus Liedy
s. Co.. plaintiffs in error vs.. A. j. Har-
sin. 1t was taken on appeal from the
supreme courtet Iowa, ana the supreme
court reverses the decision Of the state
court. Justices Gray. Harlan and
Brewer dissented.

expense of only one dollar and half
each; there should be better way of

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Feb. 14.-Trading IN wheat
today was larger and the feeling unsettled.
The market opened shade easier than
the close yesterday and prices soon de-
clined &c. Under good buying the mar
ket reacted and prices were advanced with
numerous fluctuations Sc and the closing
was about 1I@5sc higher than yesterday.
There was growing feeling that prices
are, or ought to be. pretty close to the
bottom, and this belief no doubt induced
some buying on long account.
Another large trade was transacted in
corn and though fluctuations kept within
&c range large quantities of property
changed hands. The easier feeling was
attributed mainly to the large movement.
Oats were active but unsettled and sold
14@$sc lower at the opening, but later the
market became stronger and the loss was
more than regained.
Speculative trading was more active in
perks. There was a net gain of 7j9@1215c
in prices.
Lard was fairly active. Prices were
firmer and stronger and there was more
doing in cash property.
Moderate activity characterized the
market for short ribs and prices for futures
improved 215@5c.
The leading futures ranged as follows.
