THE STATE WINS.
An Importeut Decision in the Glenn
Taxation Law.

An importeut Decision in the Glenn
Taxation Law.
ATLANTA, Ca, Aug. ga decision ins
volving an aggregate OF over $500. 900 TO
the various counties of Georgia was decided
by Judge Marshall J. Clarke of Fulton sd-
perior court this morning. The style of
the case is: THE Columbus Southern Rail-
way Company VS., William A. Wright. con-
troller general, injunction" The case was
brought to test the validity of the Glenn
bill, which became law in 1889, providing
for the county taxation of railroads. The
Columbus Southern applied for an injunc-
tion to prevent the controller general from
issuing Fl. fa.'s for the collection of the
county taxes. The validity of the law was
attacked upon five constitutional points.
EFFECT OF THE DECISION.
Judge Clarke decides that the law is con-
stitutional and valid, and the;prayer for the
injunction is denied.
The decision will give the counties of the
state, through which the railroads pass, the
right to collect this special tax, which means
their treasures. The railroad companies
will doubtless take an appeal from the de-
cision.
A FEATHER IN GLENN's CAP.
The decision is great feather in w. T.
Glenn's caps and may influence favorably
the governors decision upon his application
for the place of assistant attorney general.
This is the first year that the law has been
In effect. The taxes will not be due under
a recent decision OF the state supreme court
until Dec. 20. Next year the law providing
for the municipal taxation of railroads goes
into effect

BERLIN, Aug 29.-The FreiSinnige
Zeitmng has decided to oppose certain
clauses of the governments bill for the res
preston of drunkenness. The ultimate fate
Of the measure may be predicted, as it is
modelled after bill of similar import which
was introduced in the reichstag in 1881. and
which was dropped in committee.
The leading ministerialists are the only
supporters of the present bill, and their
support is due simply to the TACT that the
emperor, who is the father of the BILL is In
earnest in his efforts to suppress the grow
ing evils of intemperance. Yet the pro-
posals contained in this bill cannot strike
foreigners, who are accustomed 10 liquor
legislation, as being severe.
PROVISIONS OF THE MEASURE.
The measures provide that retail liquor
dealers must supply food besides spirits. aud
are forbidden to sell liquor to persons under
16 years of age. They must not serve visi-
bly, drunken persons or one who is known
to be confirmed drunkard. They must
see that drunken persons are guarded to
their homes or projected by the police and
they must not supply liquor on credit.
The most drastic clauses Of the bill
provide for the forcible committal of con-
firmed inebriates to au asylum; or the
keeping of public house closed until 8
o'clock in morning. and fixing the minimum
quantity of spirits to be sold at half q
iitre.
NO HOPE OF PASSING THE BILL.
It is not expected that the government
will persist in passing the bill in its en-
tirety. If the government can get meas
ure of kindred nature to those accepted
by the countries where there arc temper
ance reforms it is known that the emperor
will be satisfied.

FOSTER GOING RIsAINa.
The Secretary VIII Not Visit Ohio and
Assist Mckinley.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-Instead of going
to Ohio to help Maj Mckinley as an-
nounced, it is now stated that Secretary
Foster is going next "Wednesday to New
York, from whence he will take two
weeks trip on a yacht blueashing. This
change of plan seems significant to the
watchful friends of Secretary Blaine at
Washington.
WHAT 1T MEANS.
They think it means that President Har-
rison, having failed to get an invitation to
Bar Harbor, and not feeling confident that
Secretary Blaine would accept an invita-
tion to Cape May Point, has asked Secre-
tary Foster to go to Bar Harbor and find
out from Secretary Blaine just what he
proposes to do about the presidential NOM
ination. The President is very anxious to
get some definite announcement from the
Secretary of State 80 that he may know
what to do himself. II Secretary Blaine
should say that he would accept the nomi-
nation
PRESIDENT HARRISON MAY WITHDRAW
On the other hand he may not believe
that the secretary has strong following in
his party, and may try issues with the Sec
retary. The question Of whether he should
ask him to leave the cabinet would also
turn Secretary Blaine's declaration, but the
secretary. it is believed, will make no
declaration except that he is not a candi-
date for the nomination and will not feel
obliged to leave the cabinet because his
friends are pressing him.

BERLIN, Aug. 29.-Messrs Handy, Peck
and Butler, three Of the members OF the
foreign committee OF the Chicago Column
bian exhibition visiting the various Russian
cities, will shortlyarrive in Brussels. They
have described the reception by M. de Giers,
the Russian prime minister, as being of the
most cordial nature. Ii. de Giers stated
that he regretted that the cznr had just ieff
the capital prior to the arrival of the com.
missioners. His majesty, the prime minister
said, would have been pleased to have mes
them.
WORKING DAY AND NIGHT.
The commissioners cover 10000 miles Of
Russian territory in a single week, working
day and night in the interest Of the exnibi-
tion.
Nj. Vishnegradsky the minister of finance,
promised that he would at an early date
appoint a commissioner to attend to all the
matters pertaining to the proper repre-
sentation Of Russian art, industry and man
ufactures. A probable warship will be
detailed to convey the Russian exhibits to
the port in the United States.
AUSTRIAN OPPOSITION DISAPPEARING.
Mr.. Handy, in referring to the experience
! of the commissioners in Austria, said that
whatever opposition there had been In
Vienna TO sending an exhibit to Chicago,
was fast disappearing. The committee had
succeeded in disabusing the minds of the
manufacturers who were prejudiced on ac-
count of the Mckinley bill. For instance, ths
mon engaged in the pearl button industry
supposed that their business would be ru~
fned by the Mckinley bill. The committee
was able to show these manufacturers that
the business was only hurt through the ex-
cessive exports before the Mckinley bill
became law.
