FORCED TO ASSIGN.
Failure of Potter. White a. Bailey, an Ex-
tensiye Eastern shoe Firm, with Liabll-
tiles of About q OOO, 900.


BosToN, Mass. May 26.-The failure
of Potter, White & Bailey, the big boot
and shoe manufacturers, was an
nounced here Monday afternoon. Fol-
lowing so closely upon the suspensions
of the Davis Shoe Company here and
the Hill Shoe Company at Memphis,
Tenn, the announcement caused
great excitement in trade and
financial circles. George s. Bull
lent, president of the Revere
bank, William Henry Allen, of the firm
of Allen, Field & Lawrence, and Ed
ward ii. Dunn, of the firm of Dunn,
Green & Co., are named as assignees.
The liabilities are placed at above ST.
900, 900, and the assets are not known
definitely. but are placed at nearly ST.
900, 900. The firm has done a busi-
ness of about 81, 900, 900 a year and
its credit has stood among the highest
in Boston. For this reason the sus-
pension came like thunderbolt to all,
and it was all the more surprise be-
cause over their own signature the firm

denied the report that their liabil-
tiles to the Hill Shoe Company
of Memphis. Tenn, were $685.
900, or that the failure of that COM
pany would seriously cripple them. OF
the causes that bought about the fail
ure little definitely can be said for the
Junior member of the firm, speaking
for the others, said that he could make
no statement at present The assignees
had little more to say, for the failure
was an entire surprise to them as well
as to others, and they had not had the
firms standing fully laid before them.
The firm has manufactured through w.
& j. NJ. Bent, Cochituate, and A. Mute
& Sons, Pennington, n. H., and until
within two months through NJ. N.
Arnold, of North Abingdon.
A large portion of the trade has been
south and west with the Bent" bro
gan, the finer shoes being from the
other factories. 1t is believed on the
street that the falling off in this west
ern and southern trade had much to do
with the failure, though the firm was
supposed to be doing a good business
elsewhere 1t is also believed that the
Hill and Davis failures had much to do
with this failure.

a VALID LAW,
Decision of the Supreme Court In an Orig
inaI Package Case.


WASHINGTON. MAY 26-The United
States supreme court on Monday de-
cided that the original-package law
passed by the last congress was valid
and constitutional, and that it went
into effect in all states where pro-
hibitory laws prevailed without
reen actment by the states of the
laws ny which they forbade the
sale OF Intoxicating liquors within
their boundaries, whether imported
from other states or moi. Chief Justice
Fuller rendered the opinion of the
court, and the bench was united in
support of the conclusions to which he
arrived, though Justice Gray an
nounced that Justices Harlan, Brewer
and himself did not concur in all the
reasoning of the opinion of the court.
The case upon which the decision
was rendered was that of John NJ.
Wilkerson. sheriff of Shawnee coun-
ty. Kan, appellant, VS.. Charles A.
Rahrer, brought here on appeal from
the decision of the circuit court
of the United States for the district
of Kansas against the state. Rahrer
was the original package agent at
Topeka, Kan, of the firm of Maynard,
Hopkins & Co., of Kansas City, Mo,
and was arrested the day after the
original package law went into effect.
He claimed that the law was unconsti-
tutional. and also that it could not 90
into operation until the state had re-
enacted its prohibitory laws.
Chief Justice Fuller in discussing the
case remarked that the state by the
adoption of the constitution of the
United States surrendered certain
features of their rights to regulate COM
merce in the productions of other
tates.
The court held that although the
liquor in question arrived in Kansas
prior to the passage of the act by con
gress il was not necessary for the state
of Kansas to reenact its prohibitory
law after the passage of the con-
gressional act in order to shut out
liquors in original packings.
The supreme court reversed the
action of the circuit court and re-
manded the case for further proceed
ings. The decision is accepted by the
prohibitionists as favorable to their
cause and support of the state laws
inasmuch as it reverses the action of
the lower court which had ordered
