TIE nARDsDEY CASE.
Unable to Attend the Examination-Ar'
rested ON a State Warrant.

PH1tADE1pn1A, May 25.-City Treas
urer Bardsley's condition was still so
serious this morning that he was unable
to appear at his hearing to answer on
the charge of misappropriating $4,000
Of the city money. A physician's GER
tificate was presented, showing it would
be dangerous to make him leave his
bed, but that he was apparently i'm
proving. The hearing was confined un-
til Friday next, and the bail fixed at
$25, Whether he succeeds in secur.
ing bail or not, the city authorities will
not give him an opportunity to escape
before the hearing.
Attorney General Hensel came here
from Harrisburg this morning with o
warrant, charging him with embezzling
$446,0 900 Of State money. The expert
accountants who are going over the City
Treasurer's accounts, have as yet dis
covered nothing further incriminating
MIR. Bardsley.
The hiding place Of Marsh, the alb
sConding President Of the Keystone
Bank, is still unknown. The authorities
OF the town OF Thurlow, Pa, think he is
hiding there at q hotel, but hesitate to
make descent on the house on the
meagre evidence they possess. The
house is closely watched, and if Marsh
is there he cannot escape.
Magistrate Pole this afternoon In
creased Bardsley's bail from $25, 600 to
$4,000, Two detectives have remained
in room adjoining Mr.. Bardsley's bed
room since Saturday night, when the
first warrant was served.
The commitment was given to Chief
Wood with instructions in case Bardsley
is able to be out before Friday to take
him into custody unless the $4,000 bail
be furnished.

Kehstone National Bank. had not been

suPREME COURT pEcIsIoNs.
The Original Package Law Constitutional
Ward McAlIister Loses HIS Case.

wAsulNoToN, D. G., May 25.-The
Supreme Court to-day upheld the con.
stitutionality Of the original package
law passed by Congress. This court
reyerses the decision Of the lower conrt.
Chief Justice Fuller rendered the de-
cision, the entire court being with him.
In the Fort st. Church large audi
ence gathered this evening to hear ad-
dresses in behalf the work among the
freedmen. Rev. ]. 7. Gibson, Secretary
Of the Board, with Rev. Messrs. Wilson,
Of Georgia, York Jones, Of Virginia,
Haskins, Of North Carolina, and Will
kins, of South Carolina, colored mis-
sionaries, made addresses which were
listened to with much interest.
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-
moval 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.
The court also, by a 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, receiyer OF the First National
Bank Of Buffalo, against E. G. spaul-
ding and others, directors Of the bank.
The receiver sought to hold the direc-
tors responsible Tor 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, in.
volying the relations of all national
bank directors. Opinion by Chief

Warner Miller Says It Can't Live But VIII
Affect the Next Election.
wAsH1NaToN, D. o. May Ex-senator
Warner Miller, in an interview here,
was asked what he thought Of the third
party movement and said: 81 do not
think it can last long. History teaches
us that no party built upon one idea
can live. The greenback party, the
grange, the prohibition party and all
the rest of like sort have failed,
and l think this will also. It is so
near the presidential campaign now,
however, that it would have to suffer q
very sudden death not to have some in
fiuence on the election of 1892. Il they
put a presidential ticket in the field they
may not carry any State, but they may
enough votes to change the result in
some OF the States, Just as activity on
the part OF the prohibition party has
aided the Democrats in carrying New
York. The movement may have some
influence on the campaign.
