In Favor of the Dressed Beef Packers
Mormon Children.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-The United States
supreme court to-day handed down an
opinion affirming the judgment OF the
circuit court of the United States for the
| eastern district Of Virginia, directing that
writ of habeas corpus be granted VIM.
Rebmas, convicted in Norfolk of violation
of the state meat inspection law. This is
one Of what is known as the dressed beef
cases, arising ont of state legislation having
for its object the restriction of the sale of
meats by firms located outside the state in
was held that the law WAS an interference
with interstate commerce, and the supreme
court sustains the contention.
Justice Brown to-day rendered his first
opinions as a member of the United States
supreme court. He delivered two opinions.
OF which the more important was in the
case Of Geo. N. Cope vs.. Janet Cope and
Thos. H. Cope, brought here on appeal from
the supreme court of the territory of Utah.
The question involved was whether or not a
son by polygamous marriage had the
right OF inheritance from his father, it
being claimed that he was illegitimate.
The court holds that q son by polygamous
marriage does have such right. and reverses
the judgment of the territorial court. The
court says the Edmunds- Tucker act de-
clared legitimate all children of Mormon
parents born within less than twelve
months from its passage. The object, the
court says, was to make these unfortunate
children an especial object of care and to
make the parents relinquish polygamy by
fixing a period after which their children
should be illegi.Imate.

CAPITAL Notes.

w. r. Sanders to-day introduced bill in
the senate making it All offsnse punishable
by fine and imprisonment for any person To
sell or lend firearms and ammunition to
Indians.
Secretary Noble has letter from the
missionaries among the Sioux commenting
his past policy towards the Indians and
protesting against their transfer to the war
department.
Senator Paddock has introduced a bill
to authorize the secretary of agriculture to
inspect all vessels that carry export cattle
to foreign countries and prescribe rules and
regulations for the accommodation of cat
tie on shipboard.
In view Of the fact that no other vessel is
available. it is probable that the cruiser
San Francisco will be sent to Chill to look
after American interests, provided she can
be made ready in time. She will have her
first contractOrs's trial on the oath inst,
and il then found satisfactory will at once
be filled for sea service.
The Colorado gentlemen who recently
presented silver brick at the PhiladeIphia
mint With demand that il, be coined into
dollars for them without the usual seig-
nioraRe, have prayed the supreme court Of
the District of Columbia to summon Secre-
tary Window into court to answer their
petition and after full hearing to grant a
peremptorv mandamus commanding the
secretary to receive and coin the bullion.

California, are included within the reserva-
ton for the Sequoia National park, created

colony consists Of about 300 families and
Dents principally In the construction Of
roads through q hitherto almost inaccessi-
BILE country. These improvements were
made, il is said, without authority from the
government and must necsssarily be for
feited, inasmuch ~ by far tho larger part Of
them cannot be removed. The only relief

INCORPORATING THE ANACONDA.
Tie Great Copper Company ReorganIzing
| -KumOred salo for 49,, 900 ,OOO

Tie Great Copper Company ReorganIxing
-Kumored saIe for &35,OOO,OOO.
BUTTE, Jan. IL. Especial. l. Heretofore
the gentlemen who have been so fortunate
as to form the Anaconda Mining company
have kept their own counsel and the outside
world has known nothing beyond conject-
ure regarding the working of this, the great
est copper property in the world. 1t was
generally known that Marcus Daily, j. h.
Haggin and Senator Hearst were the own
ers. but even this was as much guess work X
as the amount Of their individual holdings.
To-day. for the first time, articles incorpor-
ating this company were filed with the
county recorder. According to these arti-
cles of incorporation William G. GulIivsr
and Allan McCulloh, of New York City,
and William H. Green. of Englewood,
N. j.. associate themselves under the title
as before given. The capital stock
of this company is fixed at $l2,5OO. 900,
divided into 100000 shares of $25 each.
The life of the corporation is to be twenty
years, and the men named to conduct it's
business are Jacob H. Schiff, August Bel
mont, Moses Kirkpatrick, William W..
Dixonian Francis i. Sergeant. It will be
noticed that the name of no one of the pre-
sumed owners is mentioned in this docu-
ment. This gave rise to number Of spec
ulations as to the purpose of incorporating,
some claiming it was done because the re-
ported sale to an English syndicate had
been consummated. As nearly as can be
learned tonight, however, it is simply n
measure Of precaution made necessary by
the precarious condition of Senator Hearst's
health. Should he die with the property
undivided it might cause the executor of
his estate some trouble, and this method
was taken to divide the property before his
death. The property is estimated to be
worth fully thirty-fve millions and has
been reported sold for that sum to an Eng
lish syndicate.

House.
Supreme Court--OtI,er News From
Washington.

WAsHrsGToN, Jan. 19.-The intentions Of
the democrats Of the house to resort TO OBJ
strnction tactics until the determination oi
the senate on the elections bill is known,
was manifested this morning. when Bland
demanded tho reading Of Saturdays pro-
ceedings in full, instead OF in abbreviated
forrn. Then Mills moved an amendment
to the journal relative to the refnsnI Of the
chairto recognize his motion to reconsider
tho vote by which Fridays Journal WAS ap-
proved. Cannon inquired whether IL WAS
in order to move tho previous question on
approval Of the journal. The speaker, af-
ter an examination of Mills motion, rec
o9nized Cannon. Then came a chorus OF
democratic demands for the reading of the
amendment, which said the ruling OF the
speaker is disapproved by the house. The
speaker, regarding the amendment as not
proper, recognized Cannon's demand. On
a standing vote the demand was rejected,
but the republicans gathered strength and
second demand resulted, yeas 100, nays
lob. Thereupon Springer took the floor and
for some time the house was entertained by
discussion which went on between him
self and Speaker Reed. Springer
said that never before the first ses-
sion Of this congress had a motion to
reconsider, privileged motion, been de-
MED by the presiding officer. He referred
to the remarks Of the speaker in an address
made in New York state during the last
campaign, about oyerturning the precedent
Of the last hundred years. The verdict Of
the American people had condemned the
rules OF the speaker. Speaker Reed had
re:d several decisions made by Speaker
Randall, showing that the latter refused to
entertain similar appeals. Mckinley took
the floor and said nobody could deny that
the motion made by Mills was purely dila-
tory and it was the duty of the chair to re-
fuse to entertain the appeal. It was mani
fest to the country that for the last six
weeks the whole efforts of the democratic
side had been to obstruct the public bust.

ing was that it should be impossible, if the
senate should pass the election bill, to pass
that bill through the house.

After further discussion the journal was
approved and the house adjourned.

PINK RIDGE, Jan. 19.--Mor8 nervousness
was noticed Among the Indians this morn

circumstances. Many Rosebud Indians

ready returned and more will follow to.

thing but satisfactory, only 1O4 guns kav-
ing been surrendered up to date. News oi
the murder Of Few Tails and
four of his band also tends
to infame the Indians here. The
shooting is universally considered az a
cold blooded murder. This morning the
Indians rounded up their ponies and herded
them near their village, while Indians
silently watched the agency.
This afternoon one Of the Indian police
discovered tho bodies of four dead Indians
near the creek of Wounded Knee. One was
boy, two were girls and the fourth an old

Wounded Knee battle. meeting Of the
commanders Of the various dstachments
to decide upon certain tactical
movements and at the same time
the general situation was canvassed. The
uneasiness noted among the Indians in the
morning rather died away this afternoon
and Two Strike came in with thirty of his
men and delivered up twenty guns, mostly
obsolete patterns. Gen. Miles has ordeyed
forage for twenty days longer and will
himself remain here until everything is
quieted down.
A band Of Cheyennes will start to- morrow
for Tongue River, Montana, permission
having been received from Washington.
Gen. Miles hopes he will ultimately be per-
mitted to separate the hoatiles and send
them to the agencies where they belong.
