WASHINGTON, May 25.-The supreme
court rendered an opinion today through
Justice Harlan in the case of Ward Meal
lister against the United States. McAllister
was removed from office as judge Of the
district court of Alaska by President
Cleveland, and claimed his salary from
the time of removal to the qualification OF
Dawson. who was confirmed as his sue
cessor. One question in the case was
whether the judge of the Alaskan court
came within the provision Of section 17lS
R. S., authorizing the president to sus-
pend all civil officers. except judges OF
the United States. The court holds that
the Alaska court is not a court of the
United States II the constitution sense as
set forth in the third article of the consti-
tuition, but a territorial court. The fact
that the term Of the Alaska judge
is limited to four years and thai
he does not hold Office for life or during
good behavior, the court says, prOues 1t is
not court Of the United States as the
term is constitutionally used. The court
said the decision in the present case gave
the president complete power over terri
torial officers. Judgment was 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 a court created by the United
States and that the constitution did not
contemplate that judge should be
responsible to any man for continuance
in office. Itseemed to him that some of hi:
brethren overlooked the character of the
judicial branch of the government when
they male the distinction against the
courts of territories. These courts haC
similar powers and there was the
same necessity that they should use the
office tcarlessiy and without fear of offeud
ing any president lest they shonId be re
moved. The case of Wingard, Justice o
Washington territorial court, was decided
the same way

Quietly Surrendered.
WASHINGTON, May 25.-'rhe fact that no
word was received at the navy department
today from the Charleston is taken as an
indication that she has gone on down
the Peruvian coast towards Callao. Re-
specting the reiterated statements from
Paris to the effect that the Insurgents have
arranged to surrender the Itata to the
United States naval authorities when she
reaches Chill, the officials Of the navy
department stand mute. 1t may be stated,
however, that there has been no
negotiations between this government
and the CHILEAN insurgents upon the sub
ject. Still it is plainly evident that some
kind of an understanding has been or is
expected to be reached which will result in
the easy transfer of the Etata to either
Admiral McCann or Admiral Brown should
she reach Chill. This, of course, would
not take the shape Of formal agreement,
Uut the intimation may have al
ready been conveyed to our naval
officers at Iquaque by the insurgents
that such a course viii be pursued, and
doubtless this has formed the basis of
many OF the cablegrams that have passed
between Washington and Iquique during
the last two weeks.
