THE MINER LAW rs @. K.
MIChIGANIzII,G Is PERFECTLY LE-
CLIMATE.
The United States Supreme Court So De-
cides, and Thereby Increases Mr..
Cieveiand's Chances of
Election.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-The United
States supreme court, by Chief Justice
Fuller, today reaffirmed the Judgment
OF the Michigan supreme court, uphold
ing the constitutionality of the famous
Miner law, providing for the choice of
presidential electors by congressional
districts, instead of by the etate as q
whole. The court holds that the four
teenth amendment to the constitution
of the United States does not limit the
right of state to fix the mode of choos-
ing electors.
II is conceded that the effect of the
decision will be to give part, at least, Of
the Michigan electoral vote to Cleve-
land.
The opinion is unanimous.
Chief Justice Fuller, in announcing
the conclusion of the court. said the an
nouncement was made az this time, be-
cause OF the exigency suggested by
counsel requiring early action. Here
after the court would file an opinion
setting forth more fully the grounds on
| which itdscided the case.
On the question OF jurisdiction, which
point the Democrats waived, the chief
justice said the court ruled that under
section 700, revised statutes, it had
jurisdiction. The chief justice said, fur
ther, that the court ruled. in view of the
language of the clause of the conetitu-.
tion giving to state legislatures the right
to determine the method of choosing
ing presidential electors, and contem-
poraneous construction, that it cannot
be held invalid for want of power in
state legislature to pass euch law,
adding that the clause affected in the
first section, article 2, of the constitu-
ton, was not changed by the fourteenth
amendment, and the law was not OBJ
noxious to that amendment.
Attorney General Miller moved for q
writ of certiorari before the supreme
court, to bring the case of the United
States against the steamship Itata be-
fore the court. The lower court decided
against the right of the United States to-
seize the Itata, and speedy determina-
tion of the question by the highest court
is wanted.
The. supreme court adjourned this
afternoon until Monday, to permit the
justices to attend the dedicatory exer-
cises at Chicago. x,

A Question Of Jurisdiction.

ST.. PAUL, Mimi, Oct. 1.-THE man
damus proceedings before Judge Brill,
by which the Democratic state commit
tee seek to compel the secretary of state
to place the Peoples party electors,
whom they have endorsed with other
Democrats, as we'll as with the Populist
electors on the ballot, came up
for hearing this morning. The entire
argument was on the question of juris-
diction, which was already waived by
the state. When Attorney General
Clapp was called upon he replied that,
having waived the question of jurisdic-
ton, argument was unnecessary, where
upon G. d. O'Brien demanded, as an
elector. to hear from the attorney. gen
eral. Clapp maintained that an execu
tive officer was exempt from judicial in
reference in the performance Of hi
duties. The court announced that it
decision as to jurisdiction would be rem
dered tomorrow morning.

A Blow at tn. Coal Combine.

New York, Oct. 7.-Attorney- -Gener-
al John P. Stockton, of New Jersey,
struck hard blow today at the Read
ing coal combination. In behalf of the

ceiver be appointed to take charge of
the New Jersey Central, the Eastern
and Amboy and the Delaware
and Bound Brock railroad compa-
nies, to enforce the chancellor'e
injunction against all the railroads in
the coal combination in New Jersey.
Two informations were filed, and the
chancellor granted, without hesitation,
the prayers in both. and made them
returnable October 9th. The attorney
general filed with the papers mass OF
evidence showing that the temporary
and permanent orders of the court for
bidding increases in the price of coal
were ignored and violated.

Giant Powder.
LEADvILLE, Colo, Oct. 17.-Herman
Truman, the IS year-old son of A. s.
Truman, with several companions, Sc
cured 200 pounds of giant powder and
placed it in small mine near his
fathers residence. The intention was to
kill the boys father, mother and little
brother, against whom he had a fancied
grudge. The powder was exploded by
long fuse. and Truman's resi-.
dence, as well as that of
Peter Bfeep, next door. was almost
wrecked. Mirsculously none of the in
mates were seriously injured. 1t was
found that the boy had stolen 5000 be-
longing to his father, and taken refuge
with partner in cave $l2 miles from
town. Officers have gone to make his
arrest. As Truman is the victim of the
dime novel, and is armed. it is probable
that he will resist. The explosion caused
hundreds of dollars damage. Several
houses must be entirely rebuilt.

was created in the second congressional
district this evening by the announce
ment that Hon. George E. Bowen, who
served the district for two terms IN con-
gress, and who was regularly nominated
by the Republicans, had Withdrawn

America.

The three masted schooner Maggie FL
len, Captain Littlejohn, owned by Sar-
gent, Lord & Skillings and others, of this
city, went ashore Thursday night on the
west end of Fishers Island, just at the
entrance of Long Island Sound. She
was loaded with paving in the hold and
cut stone on the deck. The cut stone
was from the Hallowell works and the
pieces We're very large. She is reported
on the bottom full of water. 1t is a very
bad place, almost open to the ocean; and
it is thought here that there are few
chances to get her off. Sargent, Lord &
Skillings had no insurance on their por-
ton. Mr.. Horace M. Sargent went on to
New York yesterday to look after her
She was eighteen years old and 217
tons burden She was in good condition
and a valuable vessel.
