ing that it is proper to veto the appoint

DIR. Patton is keeping his own counsel
in this case, but there seems TO be an
underlined idea that he will bring for
ward some honorable plan of compro-
mise for the present, leaving the matter
in the hands of the PreSbytery to when
DR.. Briggs belongs. 1t is generally be-
lieved that in case of veto the trustees
of the Union Seminary will withdraw
that institution from undor the wing OF

WHEELING W. VA. TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 26, 1891.
IMPORTANT DECISIONS
BY the U. S. Supreme Court-Original
Package Declared Constitutional.

WASHINGTON, May 25.-The Supreme
Court to-day upheld the constitutionali-
ty of the original package law passed
by the Congress. This. Court reverses
the decision of the lower Court. Chief
Justice Fuller rendered the decision,
the entire Court being with him.
The Court also rendered an opinion
through Justice Harlan in the case OF
Ward McAllister against the United
States. McAllister was removed from
office as Judge of the District Court for
Alaska, by President Cleveland and
claimed salary from the time Of his re-
movai to the qualification of Dawson
who was confirmed as his successor.
The Courts decision in the present case
gave the President complete power over
territorial officers.
Judgment is therefore given in favor
of the United States. Justice Field
and Justices Gray and Brown dissented
in an opinion. in which Justice Field
maintained that the mere will of the
President was not sufficient TO remove a
Judge of court created by the United
States, and that the constitution did
not contemplate that judges should be
responsible TO any man for his continu-
ance in office.
The Court also by majority of 5 to 4
to-day affirmed the judgment of the
Circuit Court, for the Northern district
of New York, in the case of Albert b.
Briggs, Receiver of the First National
Bank OF Buffalo, against b. 6 Spauld-
ing and others, directors of the bank.
The receiver sought to hold The direc-
tors responsible for bad loans made by
the President Of the bank. The Court
holds that the directors are simply to
exercise ordinary prudence, and that
this prudence is to be governed by usage
in bank affairs. This was done in the
present case. The case is one of great
Importance, involving the relations OF
all national bank directors. Opinion by
the Chief Justice.
When the Supreme Court at its last
term upheld the constitutionality OF the
Edmunds law by which the property OF
the late corporation OF the Mormon
Church was escheated to the United
| States, it was put in an embarrassing
position, as the doctrine OF escheat is
quite unknown in this country. To-day
Justice Bradley modified this order
somewhat. The decree says that the
personal property, having devolved tc
the United States, it should be devoted
to such charitable uses lawful, as may
most nearly correspond to its former
destiny; also, that the property shall
remain in the hands of the receiver an
til otherwise ordered.

ANOTHER CHURCH WAR
at Pittburg - The Reformed Presbyte-
risns Have Fight on Hand.

PITTsRURG, May 25.-A church war
is usually most bitter one. The meet
ing of the Synod of the Reformed Pres
byterian Church, Thursday, will prove
the statement. The skirmishing all
along the line has been very lively for
many weeks, but the cannon opened up
last night.
Two hundred delegates are expected
to be in attendance. Uusually the men,
bers Of the church entertain these dele
gates. They won't this time, at least
not all of them. 1t was announced last
night from the pulpits of the various
Reformed Presbyterian Churches that
40 ministers were still unprovided for
That was notice that the cannonading
had commenced.
"What does that announcement
mean?" was asked of a prominent mem
Der of the church this morning.
at means that the people will not en-
tert&in these forty ministers. The
liberals have all been taken care of. We
can open our homes to them, but not to
those who seek no good outside Of what
themselves think. These ministers will
have TO 60 to hotels"
Talk about political conventions.
Why this Synod is packed worse than
any convention ever was. If man,
whose turn it was to be delegate to
the Synod, was known to have liberal
views he was passed by, and conser-
vative put in his place. There can only
be one result of the Synod meeting, and
that is the dismissal of the young min
| listers who will be on trial from the
the church. What will they do then?
Why, 60 over to some more liberal
! church and take their congregations
with them.
"Did you read Mr.. McAllister's SER
mon? Well l want to make two points
on it, One is that he has no right to
hold these young men responsible for
what Prof McClurkin wrote because
that letter was personal one and eX-
pressed only his own views. And then
he says, we know now what we have
to meet, what the real issue is Don't
that prove that they suspended the
young ministers from prejudice and not
from conviction? BY his own words
they only know now what the issue is.
Don't you think DR.. Dixon, Of New
York, hit it yesterday when he said:
"'The heresy trial is a relic of bar
barism, a relic of savagery. 1t belongs
to the crudeness and ignorance and
superstition Of barbaric times. II
smells of roasting flesh. Is it not time
to Danish this relic of superstition and
barbarism? Can 1t give any force tc
the cause of Christian life to-day? Nc
man can enter into the trial OF hereto
and take Jesus Christ with him."
