JUSTICE BREWER DrssENrs.
His Opinion Was Verbal One-A Writ
ten One Will Be Prepared.

His Opinion Was a Verbal One-A Writ
ten One VIII Be Prepared.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-Judge Brewer
dlssented from the opinion of the court
His opinion was a verbal one, and
at its conclusion he notified the
court that he would prepare
an extended written opinion on the sub
ject which would be fled in the records
of the case. He said the Fourteenth
amendment could not be construed
as being entirely confined to protection
of citizens Of the United States. The
provisions applied to the people living in
the jurisdiction of the United States. He
defined the meaning of use of the word
persons in the fifth amendment,
which he said must be equally compre-
henSiYe. So also must be the
sixth amendment. In his opinion
there was one question regarding
the general power of government TO enact
laws in keeping people out of the United
States, or TO summary deal with persons
who unlawfully came in.
However, this act dealt with persons
who we're lawfully in the United States.
1t is not possible that any law can be put
into effect that shall take property from
the people within our borders for which
compensation is not given. 1t is but fair
10 say that deportation IS punishment.
1t is a deprivation of the liberty and
removal from home, family, business,
and property. This can be considered
nothing less than punishment of the Sc
verest nature. Justice Brewer held that
If man had been born, brought up and
established here, he can be seized
and driven from the country
under the provisions of the Geary
act. He insisted that powers conferred
on the collector were surely not such as
TO constitute due press of law. Justice
Brewer did not believe the provisions OF
the Geary law made just provision in
reference to bringing unregistered Chi
nese before proper judges. With due re-
spect to limitations as to their power, and
for these reasons he declared himself
unequivocally against the law.

THE MINING CONGRESS.
1t Will Probably Be Postponed Until
June OF Next Year.
The worlds Fair Would Interfere with
Its success-The Birch Creek Gold
Excitement-rhe Autograph Stone.

In all probability the national mining
congress, which was originally proposed
to be held in this city this month and was
postponed until September, will be fur
ther postponed until June OF next year.
The local committee having the matter in
charge have decided that it would be
difficult to secure a good attendance
while the World fair is in progress and
are disposed to let it go over until all
conditions are favorable to thoroughly
successful congress. They have commu-
nicated with the members OF the execu-
tive committee of the National Mining
association and have received replies
from two favoring a postponement, al
though one of them believes the congress
should be held in November, after the
Worlds fair is over. November, how
ever, is too close to the holidays to be a
successful convention month, and the
congress will more than likely go over
until next year.
Mr.. w. F. James, president of the
national association, stated that, no mat
ter whether the congress is held this year
or next, the next session will be held in
this city. Personally he was in favor of
a postponement until next spring, and
believed this would be decided upon by
the executive committee.

Motion for a New Trial in Mining Case
Overruled-The Early Case.
BOISE, Ida, May 15.-[special. Judge
Nugent today overruled the motion for a
new trial in the Tyler Last Chance case.
This is the famous Ceuer D Alene mining
case in which the Tylers secured verdict
at the recent term of the United States
district court.
In the habeas corpus proceedings to get
H. w. Early, the clothing swindler, out
of jail, Judge Nugent today rendered a
decision remanding the prisoner to Jail
until he should give bond as required by
the committing magistrate.
A peculiar arrest was made here TODAY.
Some time ago II. A. Reece, a cigar
dealer, was arrested in Pocatello for VIC
lating the internal revenue laws. He was
released on bonds, but afterwards left and
went to Portland. His bondsmen had
him arrested in Portland, and sent George
Starkweather after him. The Portland
officers took some money from Reece
which they turned over to Starkweatber,
The latter brought his prisoner here, and
Reece was remanded to jail by Judge
Beatty, and he then had Starkweather ar
rested on charge of stealing SAB from
him. Starkweather claims he gave the
money to Reece and the latter squandered
it. The defendant was bound over.
Word has reached here that strike has
occurred at Mineral, the Seven Devils
mining camp. The owner got ready to
start up, when the men made demand
for a raise from IS to $3.50 per day.

Then he would begin on laborers.
District Attorney Carter said nothing
could be done until further orders from
Washington, but expressed an opinion
that deportation would be no easy task.
number OF prominent Chinese mer-
chants seen this evening expressed great
regret at the decision OF the court, saying
It meant 4 terrible setback for their bust
ness interests. Chong Chang said he es-
tlmated it would mean loss TO Chinese
merchants OF $50, 0O6, 900. They look, he
said, for modification of law.
Dispatches from Portland, Ore, and
many points in this state say the Chinese
as a rule received the news quietly and
declined to talk until they had advices
from the six companies.
A prominent Chinese at Sacramento
expressed the opinion that the six com
panies have done wrong in advising Chi
nese not to register. The white people
throughout the state generally received
the news with approval, exceptions being
some fasteners and a few clergymen.

ONLY TEMPORARY.
Railway Officials Say the Rates Will
Be Restored.
The Rio Grande Westerns $50 Rate
Fifteen Hundred People Patronize
the First Lake Excursion.

The leading topic in railroad circles
continues to be the cut rate question.
The brokers are in a quandary as to
whether the reduction will stick, or
whether the matter will be patched up
and the rates advanced.
General Passenger Agent Bennett, of
the Rio Grande Western, when asked if
his road had met the Union Pacific rate of
S56, evasively replied:
Eyes, we have S56 rate, S26 to Denver
and $50 from Denver to Chicago.''
Mr.. Bennett said that he believed un-
doubtedly that the differences between
the Midland and the Denver & Rio
Grande would be fixed yesterday, and
that Mr.. Jeffreys, president of the Rio
Grande, and Mr.. Rienhart, of the Santa
Fe, would come to an agreement at their
gentlemen come together he thought
that the old rates would be restored and
the war be at an end.
A Union Pacific official gave it as his
opinion that the present rates would in
all likelihood be only temporary and that
any day they might be abrogated by the
Santa Fe and Rio Grande coming to an
agreement. He advised persons desiring
to take advantage of the present cut rates
to do So right OFF, :" as the chances were
more favorable to higher rate than for a
reduction.
The public, however, seems to be hold
ing back for a still further reduction, and
S56 is more than the half fare which they
had been led to expect during the Worlds
fair.
The scalpers are handicapped from
stocking up with tickets, as the $56 fares
are limited to continuous passage on
the day they are stamped.

FIRST LAKE EXCLUSION.
Fifteen Hundred People Take Sunday
Trip to Saltair.

Fifteen Hundred People Take a Sunday
Trip to Saltair.
The first excursion to Saltair Twas a
''hummer. The new resort received a
good send off two weeks before the regu-
lar bathing season opened and when the
great pavilion was in semi-chaotic state
of completion.
The excursion was literally heralded
and the virtue of printers ink was again
demonstrated. The sidewalks about the
clock corner were black with excursion
lists and the Salt Lake City street car lines
were unable to carry the crowd. At least
200 persons, after repeated efforts to board
the over crowded cars went away, while
as many more, after struggling to get on,
reached the ''open-air'' depot too late to
catch the train.
Enough persons, however, succeeded
in getting at the train to load down sew
enteen coaches. In addition to the ten
open air coaches and two compartment
cars of the Salt Lake & Los Angeles, five
coaches had been borrowed from the Rio
Grande Western and they were all needed.
The heavy Rhode Island engine, after
several ''tugs' at the start, swung the
big train in fine style over the finely
ballasted track and pulled into Saltair in
twentyfour minutes. The train was so
long that some delay was caused by the
passengers being forced to either walk on
the ends of the ties along the pier or to
climb along the open cars to reach the
side platform, which is only partially
constructed.
Once on the pavilion, the excursionists
were amazed at the magnitude of the
structure and the audacity of the men
who projected so gigantic an undertaking.
They stood under the great structural
arched-trusses as if dazed by its proper
tions. The pavilion is so large that the
fifteen hundred excursionists actually felt
as if they were isolated from each other.
Fifteen thousand persons can be easily
accommodated on the pavilion at one
time and then there will be no jam.
The train returned in good time and
the excursionists were on Main street by
5 O'Clock.
Considerable fault was found with the
officials of the company for taking out so
large crowd before the pavilion was com.
pleted, but this was no fault OF theirs,
for when they chartered the train to an
enterprising excursion agent they had no
idea he was going to 'boom" things the
way he did.

To prove that he was qualified to speak
of the horrors of drink, he said that he
had sounded the darkest depths OF the
pit oil drunkenness, forsaking and for
getting IN his degradation wife, children,
father and mother. He had gone. down
like lead into the dark pit OF utter hope
lessness for this world and the world to
come; but being made convert to
Christianity a little more than i've years
ago, he was lifted MP to his former re-

lieves that it is within the power, and
therefore the duty of the church to sweep

that should be done is to create healthy

On being requested to speak on the
subject, Mr. Woolley said that when he
was reformed he succeeded in raising
enough money among his friends to buy
a small island IN the Mississippi river,
about sixty miles below Minneapolis,
containing about 400 acres, which he has
converted into farm and refuge for
drunkards and calls it ''Rest Island"

that the reinforcements of the French
troops stationed on the eastern frontier of
France is proceeding with method and
regularity. The French government, &C
