evening from Randolph, n. Y, and left for
his home a: noon yesterday having in charge
james Daley, who was arrested here Friday
on charge Of grand larceny committed on
farm a few miles from Randolph Mr..
Woodwork stated yesterday that he did not
believe that Daley was directly responsible
for the theft but that DalleS Berry a man
fer whom Daley had been working. was The
main party concerned III the matter. Dalles
Berry was the lessee of a farm belonging 20
Frank FoX.a hermit and Fox reserved right
TO TWO rooms in the farm house where he lived
Berry knew that Fox had several hundred
dollars laid away in a trunk, and calling Dai-
ley with him. they broke into the trunk and
stole the money. Daley said that Berry had
gwen him $3.50 TO keep the affair quiet and
had retained the balance of the money,
which Mr. v oodworth estimates at nearly
$1,000.

routes. 1t is in favor of selling
them by direct legitimate routes, and a

Present Condition.


New YORK, May lit was stated at
the house of Walter Damrosch, No. Y
West SEVENTEEN street. where Secretary
Blaine is now i'll, that Mr. Blaine's con-
dition this morning was greatly i'm
proved. DR.. Dennis called at an early
hour and made all examination of the
secretary of state. He said that there
was nothing alarming about Mr.. Blaine's
cOnditiOn,and he advised rest and quiet.
The only medicine which he prescribed
was pepsin for indigestion. Mrs. Blaine
was seen by reporter, and In an inter-
view she said: .'Mr. Blaine is still
confined to his bed, but he is
resting quietly, and there is no danger
whatever, and, in fact, he is almost
we'll. His attending physician advised
Mr.. Blaine to rest, and not to return to
Washington to-day. The secretary
would return to the capital if l would
permit it, but, in view of the physi-
cIan's advice, | would not let him 60,
under any circumstances. Since the
presidents absence from Washington,
Mr.. Blame has been working very hard,
and the fact is that he was called
upon to look after all the affairs of
state. | attribute the present at
tack to Mr. Blaine's having hur-
ried over to this city to see
his daughter off for Europe, and thus
getting out of his regular daily routine"
Mrs. Blaine denied that the secretary
had had another attack Of vertigo. He
has had no fainting spells, and his mind
is perfectly clear. The attending ply

Pullman Must Paw.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE United
States supp enc court to-day affirmed
the Judgment of the supreme court of
Pennsylvania in the case of the Pull
man Palace Car company against the
state, involving the validity and consti-
nationality OF the state law taxing the
company Oh a basis proportionate to the
total number of miles OF railroad within
the state over which the company's cars
ran, compared with the total number of
miles of railroad in the United States
over which the cars ran. The court, in
an opinion by Justice Gray, holds
that the law is valid and CON
stitutional, and not in violation
of the interstate commerce clause of
the federal constitution. The court
holds that the law is not a regulation
of commerce, but an equitable method
of taxing the property of the company
within the state. 1t holds that it is not
a tax upon business. but upon property
that may be found within the state.
The court also decided a case from
Massachusetts involving practically the
same question as applied to the lines of
the Western Union Telegraph company
III the same.
