A Common Failing.

The dispatches, a day or two ago,
made mention of two men from the
Northwest futilely worrying the police
of Philadelphia, over the loss of $500

as they supposed, but which proved to
be only worthless brown paper. They
were fortunate in being allowed to re-
turn home with their 5000 worth of ex-
perience only. There was nothing I'M
usual in this case. 1t has happened to
many others, and will be worked as
long as there are people dishonest and
yerdant enough to be victimized. These
two men were not essentially different
from the average man, aside from their
verdancy. The opportunity to get a
snug pile for nothing and keep out of
the penitentiary will shatter most of
the veneered moral fabrics, who are
often surprised to find that they are
just like the rest in this respect, Hardly
any temptation has SO general con-
quest as that which promises to fill itch
ing palms without any of the callousing

The Federal Supreme Court De-
MES Habeas Corpus for KEN
Ter.
WASHINGTON, May 5.-Roger M.
Sherman to-day made an application in
the United States Supreme court for a
writ of habeas corpus for Kemmler, UNI
der sentence of death in New York, by
electricity, pursuant to the order of
Judge Wallace, of New York, directing
that he should make the application i'm
nlediately. The court denied the appli-
cation for writ of habeas corpus, but
Informed Mr.. Sherman that on the
10th of May, the court would hear
motion for writof error in the case
notice to be given the attorney general
of the state. Ibis will permit the
whole record TO be brought here and
the case argued. The court follows the
precedent established in the Spies an
archist case. AS the court adjourns for
the term on May 10, the decision deny
ing or granting the writ of error will be
announced almost Immediately after
the argument.
BUFFALO, May 5.-Another writ of
habeas corpus has been issued in the
case of Kemmler, the murderer. Copies
were this morning served upon District
Attorney Quinby and others interested
i'll the case, including Warden Durstan,
to produce Kemmler before Judge
Underwood at Auburn on Saturday
next. The writ was granted by Judge
COrlett and was obtained by Charles S.
Hatch. 1t is issued to dispose of the
question as to whether the warden of
the state prison at Auburn can legally
execute Kemmler. A stay of execution
was some time ago asked upon the same
ground, Mr.. Hatch urging that nobody
but the sheriff of Erie county could
execute his client.

WHAT II MEANS.

The more the effect of the decision of
the supreme court In the Iowa case is
discussed, the wider is the divergence Of
opinion. The relations of individual
interests to special policies in temper
ance regulation have much to do with
the conclusions. Those who favor
license and stringent checks are dis
posed TO regard it as damage to prohi-
bition and forcing the adoption of their
system. The prOhIbtionists, however,
insist that it affects the high license sys-
TEN as much as it does prohibition. The
Sioux City journal, in speaking for this
class, says: "The decision is just as
strong against any interference with in
terstate commerce in liquor under a
high license law as it is under such a
prohiDitOry law as exists III Iowa."
The Philadelphia Telegraph, too, says
that $50 far as the interstate sale
is concerned, the high license law
will become farce" In that state. On
the other hand, the Philadelphia Rec
ord insists that there is no interference
with the state license. In its view, the
moment the delivery is made of the
goods TO the purchaser in the state or
importer it becomes subject to the state
police regulation, and can only be used
or sold in pursuance of the local law.
Any subsequent sale is Illegal. In the
case before the court, an Illinois brewer
shipped beer into Iowa, stored the bot
ties and kegs in his warehouse, and his
agent supplied customers with the beer
IN original packages. The goods were
seized under the state law, and the
state supreme court upheld the seizure,
and the United States supreme court
reversed that decision. No license could
be required, as, otherwise, it might be
SO high as to be prOhibitory. and defea t
Interstate commerce. If this is the
right view, it would give the importer
from another state an advantage
over the licensed wholesale dealer.
His sales are mainly in the orig
inal packages. but he would have
to pay for the chance to do
business while the interstate dealer
was only restricted to the sale of articles

TUESDAY CHATTER.

One of the Boston pulpit lights last
Sunday sent a litter of modest enthus-
iasm over the attractive portion of the
audience by the averment, as his eyes
took in the charming scene, that ''there
were never more beautiful women than
now" AS he did not speak from manu-
script. it was evident that the tribute
was ELECTED by those before him.
Every lady present felt that she con-
tributed to that conclusion, and that it
was conscientious expression. 1t is
probable that pulpits have enough of
the esthetic and human to feel the in
SEPARATION Of beauty in the gatherings

his own popularity, and the narrative

gracious and eager to aid him in doing
the work before them. Appreciation of
beauty in its human phases may be a
religious exercise.

Beck's Successor May 13.
LOUISVILLE. KY. May 5.-Gov. Buck.
ner to-day sent formal notice of Sena-
tor Beck's death to the legislature, and
the election of successor will conse.
quently take place May IL. A joint res
olutiOn of respect and regret was
adopted by the legislature. One
paragraph of this is as follows.
''By his great public service,
his devotion to duty and
his love of country, he won national
fame for himself, and reflected nnmeas-
ured honor and glory upon his people
and his state, and. dying, he leaves no
one able to fill his place." A guard of
honor, thirteen in number, was APP
pointed from the two houses to meet
the remains at the Eastern Kentucky
line and escort them to Lexington.

brought from another state. The singu-
lar condition would seem to exist under
this view that the agent may sell the
goods made in another state, but not
those produced in the state, if the state
law prohibits 1t. Evidently the decision
removes all restrictions upon the party
who buys his liquor supplies in another
state. His original packages can come
without any DISCUSSES. But this has
been the fact before in all but a very
few states. The chief effect is in the
states that have prohibitory laws. In
others there will be little inducement to
import on account Of local restrictions.
The action to be sought of congress will
be in the interest of prohibition almost
entirely, at least practically, whatever
the speculative phases.

terest to observe the disposition toward
public buildings in the executive quar-
ter. There are localities, like st. Paul,
where no danger Of veto should be

putable. The greater danger is that the
subject will not reach the White house
in routine way.
