THE KANSAS REpEMPTION LAW.

TOPEKA, Kan, May 9.-Judge Hazen of
the district court of Shawnee county has
decided that the mortgage redemption
law enacted by the last legislature does
not apply to existing contracts. Suit was
brought to foreclose a second mortgage on
a farm in Shawnee county. The defeud-
ant set up the right, under the act in
question, to redeem the property at any
time within eighteen months after sale by
the sheriff. Judge Hazen holds that this
clause of the act is unconstitutional.
When the bill was passed this clause
was admitted TO be unconstitutional: but;
inasmuch as an appeal to the supreme
court could not be decided for three years,
on account of the courts being behind the
docket, confirmation of the sheriff's sale
could be delayed that much anyway, and
so the clause was allowed TO staud.

THE KANSAS RAILWAY BOARD.

TOPEKA, Kan, May 9.-The new state
board of railroad commissioners held a
meeting today for the first time, and de-
cided to take up the motion for a rehear-
ing of the Union Terminal case, filed by
David Martin and Frank Doster, repre-
sentlng the Missouri Pacific and Union
Pacific railroad companies. The motion
sets forth no new facts, but simply says
that they have discovered new evidence
bearing upon the case. The attorneys re-
fuse 20 say what the evidence ls, but 1T IS
common report that on a rehearlng,
should the board grant one, an attempt
will be made to prove that the original
order of the old board, granting the Union
Terminal company the right TO cross the
railroad tracks at the west end of the kaw
bridge, was corruptly obtained. The
hoard formally received the motion and
set the hearing Of it for next Tuesday
morning.
The commissioners this afternoon called
on Governor Lewelling, with whom they
were closeted for two hours, talking over
the secretaryship of the board and the
bitter feeling which had grown out of the
scramble for 1t. 1t is thought that NJ. ID.
Henderson will receive the appointment.

The Chinese Registry Law.

The Chinese in the Unitod Statas
have very properly concluded to test
the consttutionally of the Gearv re0.
lstry' winch compels them ali not only
10 register themselves, but to have
their portraits taken by a certain dav
under pain of transportation back to
their native country. There can
scarcely be any doubt as to the decis.
ion of the United States Supreme
Court upou this question. 1t is one of
the funny and some what vicious laws
that lind their way upon the statute
books that should never get there.
1t the Chinese government would
pass any decree like that against
Americans settling in China what a
talk there would be about the sacred
rights OF American citizens and a for
mldable movement would be made to
enforce those rights. In few weeks
the time will expire when this regis
terlng and phOtOgraphing was to have
neen done, but not a score of the mora
than hundred thousand of the Chinese
the law.
They will not comply with it and
there are no means to compel them to
comply with it, Neither are there anv
funds available for their deportation
to China. The quickest and simplest
way out of the difficulty is to repeal
the law. 1t is not only brutal and un.
called for, but offensive in the highest
degree. 1t was weak concession to
certain interests on the Pacific coast.

Adams Express and Overcharges.

Attorney General Nicholson deliv-
cred last week the opinion which had
been asked, by resolution, regarding
the legal ability of the Adams Express
Company for discriminating against
Delaware Business. Tho General As
sembly Of 1891 passed an act taxing
Express Companies fve per cent on
their gross receipts in this State and
prohibiting any increase of rates on
account of said taxation. 1t is claimed
however, that the Adams Express
Company took the precautiOn to raise
rates on Delaware Business before tl,is
law went into effect. The ATTORNEY
General was asked chiefly to pass upon
the question whether the Delaware
express charges were not in violation
OF the interstate commerce act. To
this Mr.. Nicholson replies in the mega
tive; that the commission has decided
that the independent Express Com.
pany," such ss the Adams, are not in
cluded among the common carriers
declared subject to the provisions of
this act. After the reading of the
opinion, Representative Salisbury in
troduced q bill increasing the State tax
on the gross earnings of express com.
panies from the present rate of per
cent to 20 per cent. In order, we
suppose, that there may be no ques-
ton as to who shall pay the fiddler,
Mr.. Salisbury has also introduced a
bill to prevent express companies
charging for transportation of packages
between points in Delaware, more than
the minimum sum charged for a like

In addition to prevalence of disas.

deaths recorded in the city last week

Der for the past six weeks. New York
