DECIDED THE SAYWARD CASE.
Uncle sam Wire Patents
That English Rector.

NHcle sam W Ins-Barbed-" ire Patents
That English Rector.
The Sayward case was decided in favor
of the United States. The Savward was
seized fifty-nine miles from land in Behr.
ing sea while killing seals in ISOLATION of
United States law. The vessel was con-
demned 20 be sold by the district court in
Alaska, and its owners, who really repre-
sented the British government, asked Tor
a writ of prohibition to prevent the sale.
The United States claimed that the SUI
preme court did not have jurisdiction be-
cause the question was a political one, but
on this point the court decided in favor of
the British contention. The writ of pro-
hibitiOn was, however. denied.
Means Life imprisonment for Them.
Flelden and Schwab. the Chicago anar-
chists, must stay in prison for life, so says
the supreme court. The claim of the APP
pellants was that in deciding an appeal
the suprt me court of Illinois had not
called the prisoners personally before it to
pass judgment, they being at Chicago in
Jail at the time the decision against them
was rendered. The supreme court SAYS
that the provision of law requiring the
prisoners to be in court personally when
sentenced refers entirely to the court of
original jurisdiction and the prisoners APP
peal Is denied.
Barbed Wire Patents Valid.
The WIshbOrn- Moen manufacturing
company gained a vOctury before the court
in cases sent from the northern Iowa cir
cult court which had decided against the
validity OF patents on barbed wire for
fences held by the company. 1t was claim
ed that the patents contained no new
principle and We're not novel. The supreme
court decides that, although something like,
these patents many have been used before
these had been failures. while the inven-
ton of the Washborn-Moen patents had
made a success.
Clergynen Not Contract Laborers.
Some time ago the circuit court of New
York fined the vestry of Trinity church.
New York, and Rev. Mr.. Warren, an
English clergyman, 81, 900 for violating tie
alien labor contract law, holding that
under that law Mr.. Warren was laborer
and the con ract with him having been
made prior to his departure from England
ii was in violation of that law The
supreme court SAYS that the decision may
be agreeable to the letter of the law, but
not to its spirit, and therefore the lower
courts Judgment is reversed.
The Michigan Railway Law.
y case involving the Michigan railway
law of 1889 regulating rates railways
was decided in favor of the validity of the
law, the decision being based on the fact
apparently that the evidence for the rail
way company was not competent, as it re-
ferred entirely to freight rates, while those
were not men 1;oned in the original case.
The boundary of State.
In the case of Nebraska VS.. Iowa,
boundary case, II decision was rendered to
he affa no. . ha 80 IL,
mel, when the river is the boundary, is the
line, and said line is subject to changes re-
sulting from the washing and wasting of

RECIPROCITY SECTION ALSO VALID.
The Power Given the President Therein
Not at All a New Thing.

The Power Given the President Therein
Not at All a New Thing.
The opinion closes the consideration of
the foregoing contention by declaring that
It is not competent for the appellants to
show from the journals of either house
that the bill when passed contained a sec
tion that does not appear in the enrolled
act. The second contention is then taken
up, which is that the third section of the
law, known as the reciprocity section, is
unconstitutional as delegating legislative
power to the president; and being an essen
tial part of the system established by the
act the entire act must be declared null
and void Numerous acts are cited to show
that the authority conferred upon the pres
ident by the third section is not new
feature in the legislation of congress. 1t is
not inconsistent with the principle that
congress can not delegate legislative power
to the president, for it does not in any rea
sense invest the president with the power
of legislation.
Executing, not Making, Law.
What. the president was required to do
was simply in execution of the act of
congress. 1t was not the making of law.
The court is OF opinion concluded Justice
Harlan this pointl that the third section of
the act is not liable to the objection that it
transfers legislative power to the president.
Even if It were, it would not by any means,
follow that other parts of the act, those which
imposed duties upon articles imported, would
be imperative.
The Sugar Bounty Clause.
The third contention of appellants was
that the sugar bounty provision was I'M
constitutional, and the whole act there
fore void. Without going into the ques-
tion of the constitu tionality of the pro-
vision, the court says the different parts of
the act, in respect of their operation, have
no legal connection whatever with each
other. The opinion concludes:
Unless it be impossible TO avoid it a general

NEW YORK, March Rev Thoma~ ;
Ducey, pastor of St. Leo's Roman Car o
lie church, whom Secretary Blaine in MS
statement criticises for having married
James &. Blaine, Jr., and Marie Nevins
left town yesterday. Before he went away
he had something to say in reply to Mr.
Blaine. Mr.. Blaine says | transgressed
my preistly duty in marrying his son."
said Father Ducey. what | did did
with the knowledge and approval of Arch
bishop Corrigan. The dispensatiOn was OBJ
tanned from the archbishop. who knew all
the circumstances Mr. Blaine's son told
me he was 81 years old. Mr.. Blaine should
prefer his complaint to the archbishop
not TO me-
The Archbishop's DiscIaim.
Archbishop Corrigan delegated his sec
rotary, Mgr. Mcdonnell, TO reply to
Father Ducey's statement Il am sur
prised,' said Mgr. Mcdonnell, that Father
Ducey tries to shield himself by drawing
the archbishop into the matter. All that
the archbishop had TO do with the mar
riage was to issue the dispensation Father
Ducey came TO the archbishop's house
with young Mr.. Blaine and Miss Nevins.
He explained the situation. As the young
woman was a Catholic and the young
man was not Catholic and the couple
wished to be married by Catholic priest
dispensation was necessary.
Tried to Dissuade the Couple.
"The archbishop was reluctant to grant
a dispensation. He talked to the young
couple for more than an hour, but he could
not dissuade them from their purpose.
The young man said that as he lacked but
few weeks of being 81 there could be no
objection on the score of age The arch
bishop told young Blaine that on account
OF the conspicuous position of his father
he should be careful not to do anything
that might interfere with his fathers plans
The young man was persistent, and on
Father Ducey's recommendation the dis
pensation was granted.
The Priest Wholly Responsible.
1T should be understood that the arch
bishops part was simply to grant permits
sion to Mr.. Blaine and Miss Nevins TO be
married by Catholic priest 1t was the
duty of the priest who performed the cere.
mony to ascertain if there were any OBJ
stacles to the marriage He further said
that Mr.. Blaine expressed himself satisfied
with the archbishop's course.

Talk at the National CapitaI.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-The most sig.
nificant thing in Blaine's letter, it is
thought here, is his denunciation of Father
Ducey for marrying his son under the cir
cumstances. Universal surprise is ex-
pressed that Blaine should attack promi-
nent Roman Catholic in such scathinr
language as he uses in his
letter. Among those who have
read the letter the opinion is ex-
pressed that had Mr. Blaine not given ND
all thought of being presidential candi-
date he would not have dared to raise a
conflict between himself and that portion
of the Catholic church that would defend
action of Father Ducey.

Mrs. Nevins said: Secretary Blaine's
