BAD FOR THE SALOONS.
A Federal Court Decision Sustaining the
Original Package Law.


Judge Caldwell of the United States Cir
Little Rock, Ark, has rendered an opinion
sustaining the constitutionality of the
original package law and also the constitu-
tionality of the liquor law of Iowa. The
Excelsior Brewing Company, a corporation
of the State of Missouri. shipped from that
State to Pella, in the State Of Iowa. con-
signed to H. NJ. Vanvliet, who was it's agent
at that place., a wooden case containing two
dozen quart bottles of beer manufactured by
the company in ST. Louis. The case contain
ing the bottles of beer was substantially
made out of wood and securely fastened
with a metallic seal, and constituted an I'M
broken or original package. The case of
beer in it's original form, Vanvliet, as agent
for the brewery company, sold at Pella.
Fer this sale he was arrested, tried before
Justice of the Peace convicted, and sem
fenced to imprisonment. He claims his i'm
prisonment is illegal and in violation of the
Constitution of the United States Ex-Chief
Justice c. G. Cole, of Iowa, applied to the
Federal Court for writ of habcas corpus,
and John Y. Stone, Attorney Gen
eral of Iowa, resisted the application.
The case was originally instituted in Iowa
while Judge Caldwell was there holding
court. Recently the same question was
passed upon by the United States District
Judges at Topeka, Kan, but they did not
enter into the constitutiOnality of the
original package act as passed by the last
Congress. The effect of Judge Caldwell's
decision will no doubt cause the case to be
appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States, but there is little doubt
among eminent lawyers that the court will
sustain the opinion of Judge Caldwell.

Why They Want Money.

A correspondent of the Cologne Gazette
has had an interview with T. P. O'Connor
on matters relating to Ireland. During the
interview Mr.. O'Connor said that the
O'Brien- Dillon mission to America had
nothing to do with the potato famine,
which was the business of the British Gov
eminent. "Our only concern" he says, ais to
get money for political purposes" The
mission counts upon getting 100000. He
himself would probably go to Canada, Dill
lon and O'Brien not daring to risk arrest
there.

TERRIBLE CRASH AT SEA.
Nearly One Hundred Lives Lost in a Col
1ision,


An unknown schooner, apparently
bound east, with a load of coal, ran
down the Spanish steamship Vizcaya,
outward bound from New York, and cut
it half in two amidShips Within ten
minutes both vessels had sunk in twelve
fathOms of water, their masts showing
above it, Of the ninety-seven persons
on board the steamer nearly all
went down with the hull. Some
thirty chung to the railing, and a few of
the SchOOner'S crew, with three of the
crew of the steamer, found Clinging
space in the upper rigging of the latter.
AS the night advanced, the cold and con-
sequent exhaustion claimed the weaker
ones, and they dropped into the water
one by one, and were drowned. Only
twelve-fOur officers and eight seamcn-
were still in the rigging at daylight,
when the tramp steamer Humboldt res
cued the survivors by means of it's boats.
This terrible disaster occurred within
eight miles of the New Jersey coast at
Barnegat. Sixteen passengers, steam
ship crew of sixty-fve, and schooner
crew of probably sixteen, the usual
number-ninety-se in all certainly
persisted.
Among the passengers who were lost
was Signor Juan Pedro, millionaire Of
Havana, who was the chief owner Of
the COmpania Transatlantic Espan0la,
who was on his way home after a SUM-
mer spent in Paris. He took this steamer
because it was esteemed one of the finest
and safest in the line. The surviving
officers claim that the schooner had no
lights out. She was fairly on top of the
steamer before she was seen, though the
night was clear. Capt. Cuniil was at his
post of duty on the bridge, and was in
stantIy killed by the bowsprit of the
schooner

Many German spies in France.

According to a dispatch from Paris the
French ex-Oficer Bennett, convicted as
spy of the Germans and now undergoing
long term of Imprisonment, has made
alarming revelations regarding the extent
of German espionage in France. These
revelations led to the arrest of the spy
Dietrich and others. 1t is probable the bill
greatly increasing the penalty of espionage
will pass the Chambers.

A Crowd at a Mexican Bull Fight Thinks
the Sport Too Dull


the Sport Too Dull
The Mexican Jockey Club he'd it's second
autumn meeting in the City of Mexico, and
the day was generally observed as a festi-
val. In the Colon ling a bull-fght was
given, at which more than 10000 spectators
were pre- eat. Posters had announced In vt
the celebrated Guaname bulls would fur
nish sport, with Zocato and Ferrar as first
and second espadas. The stock from the
first fought badly for the fighters, and while
Zocato was attempting to kill the third
bull he was caught on it's horns, sprn
as though he were d top, and tossed
in the air. He fell to the ground and
was again gored by the Infatuated animal.
He was taken from the ring for dead.
Later he entered the ring, but was not per-
mitted to fight, and while retiring dropped
In faint. 1t was found he had three deep
wounds, which, it is believed will be fatal.
Five more bulls were let in the arena, but
none fought we'll. The spectators became
enraged and fights were started on the sun
ny side of the arena among the spectators.
Pieces of wood were thrown into the ring from
this side. which started a general demOli-
ton of the plaza. After all the chairs
had been pitched into the arena the
ratings were wrenchod off and thrown en-
the heads of the police in the alleyway.
The bull fighters fearing they would be
mObbed, escaped from the arena, and sought
safety in the street, The police endeavOred
to quiet the tumuIt and used their clubs
freely, bat their efforts proved futile, as it
was threatened that - they did not deSist
they would be hurled into the ring. At the
commencement of the disorder women,
children, and timtd men rushed into the
passageways to escape into the street,
choking them and causing a partial panic,

PLEADING FOR BIRCHALL.
Petitions for a Communication of Sentence
Received from ENGLAND.


Petitions from Great Britain for the re-
prieve of Birchall have been received at
the Department of Justice at Ottawa, Ont.
They are two in number and are signed by
persons in all parts of England and Wales.
They bear LOGO signatures The main
grounds upon which Communication is asked
are that the case was unduly prejudiced by
the dishonest practices of Birchall and by the
supposed motives and suspicion of the ex-
istence of = system of decoying young gem
tlemen to Canada as agricultural pupils for
the purpose of numbering them for their
money; that the whole evidence on the
part of the prosecution was circumstantial,
and, in the opinion of the memorialists so
unsatisfactory as not to Justify the convic-
ton. Among the memOrialists are the
mother of the condemned man and his half
brothers,
