WASHINGTON, DC. Jan. 1S.-[Spe-
ciall-An opinion of Importance in it's
construction of the immigration laws was
rendered in the United States Supreme
Court to-day in the case of Nishimura
Ekin, appellant, vs.. the United States.
Nishimura Ekin is a Japanese woman
to whom entry was refused by the i'm

likely to become a public charge. 1t
was also alleged that she was coming to

The Government commended that the
ruling of the Treasury Department with
reference to tho entry of immigrants
was final and not renewable by tho

A TOSS UP BETWEEN THEM.

Justices Howerton and Williams Disagree
About Their Ages.
Justices Williams and Howerton were
engaged about all of yesterday after
noon in disposing of the Roanoke Gro
cery and Milling Company's case. Mr..
w. o. Hardaway represented tho com
pany and Lawyer Henry looked after
r. Ii. Williamson, who was charged
with receiving stolen goods.
Williamson, who runs snack house
on Railroad av enue, claimed that two
colored men, strangers to him, brought
some cigars and cigarettes into his
place of business and asked him to buy
them. When questioned as to where
they obtained the goods they replied
that they had bought them at auction.
His statement was substantiated by two
witnesses who were present when the
bargain was made.
The prisoner said no though he could
identify the men, but when Tom Mar
tin, alias Tom Bolin, was brought out
he said he thought he was the man but
was not sure.
Tho two justices hold q consultation.
after which Justice Williams announced
that he had conferred with the senior
justice in the case. This touched
squire HoEerton on q tender point and
he said he thought he was the younger
of the two. His conferee explained that
by the term senior he meant not in age,
but in the case.
Justice Williams stated that he
thought Williamson should have asked
the names OF the men and where they
obtained the cigars, and as the case was
very important one, he thought the
prisoner should be sent ON to tho grand
jury His bail was fixed at 500, John
r. Redd becoming his security. Tom
Martin and one or two others were also
sent to the grand Jury.

JOHN LIS. DEFEAT

The defeat o. John L. Sullivan at New
Orleans Wednesday night was the talk OF
the town" in this city yesterday. 1t was
absolutely surprising the number OF men
who knew he would be beaten all the time
and yet hundreds of people offered to
on Sullivan the previous day without find
ing any takers. The sentiment OF the ma
iority OF the Wichita sports was one of
sorrow for the downfall Of the uncrowned
king. The day previous nine out OF every
ten were wishing in their hearts that Cor
bett would defeat him. This illustrates
trait in American character which always
favors the uuder fellow. o. B.
Stocker is one man who still feels
good over the defeat of Sullivan but MIR.
Stocker does it because he understands
that Sullivan licked his wife on one or two
occasions Mr., Stocker has no use for any
man of that kind. Street Commissioned
John Farrell was Sullivan man and felt
little bit sore over his defeat, but has
since found ample consolation in the fact
that nobody but an Irishman has ever
whipped him. Ii an Englishman had
whipped the big fellow" John would be
in mourning ere this. Yank Owens is also
one of the men whose heart is sick and
sore over the Boston boys defeat. When
Sullivan was here Yank went to his room
and had a long conversation with him and
told him as yankee he was proud of him.
He thinks Sullivan Will meet Corbetr
again and pull the laurel he has
won from his brow. BY the way, a
number of people lost money on Sullivan
in this city. and it is stated that during
the progress of the fight over
81 900 were bet. There is a little soreness
over this, for it appears that some people
obtained the result of the fight half IN
hour before it was announced where the
bulletins came in. Ell Smith says that
Sullivan is better man than Corbett. but
that on account OF over confidence Ia him
self he did not train properly.
