OLD BLUE LAW UPHELD.
Pittsburg's Holier. than Thou People Can Now
Stop Sunday Newspaper Traffic.

PITTsBURG, Jan. 4-The Supreme Court
has decided that the old blue law. enacted
in 1884, is still in force. The case upon
which the decision was rendered was that
of Thomas Matthews. publisher of the
Pittsburg Sunday Leader, who was con-
victed of publishing and issuing bis paper
on Sunday under this act. The court, in
conclusion, comnends the act, but says
that too literal enforcement of its pro-
visions may lead to its repeal. and that 1t
is in more danger from its friends than its
foes.
The Law and Order Society Is well
pleased with the action of the court in up-
holding the Sunday law, but will make no
effort to enlarge the scope OF the laws
pers. What It will hereafter aim at Is
the entire cessation of delivery and traffic
IN Sunday papers. President James w.
Houston spoke this morning for the Law
and Order Society as follows: THE de-
cision Is just what we expected. and it will
in no way affect our movements. We will
continue to pursue the even terror of our
way, filing informations with magistrates
for every Sundays work done By carriers
and agepts of newspapers and others en-
gagged in promoting their circulation and
distribution. We have no intention of
prosecuting editors, reporters or compos-
itors. The reporters and editors are . spe-
cially formed class generally. and will be
exempt from anv responsibility shifted on
them by their mercenary employers"

ingham. of Now York. who spent several
months last year in Durango and the City
of Mexico in order to see verified copies of
titles to his mines He has now brought
SUIT in court to recover the valuable
properties. These mines are cele-
brated in history under the Span
lsh 9rule as the mines that gave
Zambrano some as0000000, and were
at that time q small city, to one of forty
thousand people. Zambreno built himself
q palace in Durango that still stands as one
of the monuments of hts great wealth,
occupying half block and fronting

rooms. Senate and other State chambers.
The private garden in front of the palace
is now used for public park with its wind
iEg walks. fountains. orange trees and end-
less variety OF flowers. Back )f the palace
stands Zambrano's Thenter. which is now
used as q public opera-hous On the east
side of the private garden stands Zam-
brano's private chapel almost as large as
O cathedral. 1t was used as place
TO christen his children. Silver was
SO plentiful with Zambrano that
the affairs were made of solid
silver and the walk between tho church
and the palace WIS made of silver slabs,
which were stored in the palace, and re-
laid for state and special occasions, and
then taken up and stored away until re-
Quired. The result of tho case is looked
forward to with much interest as millions
of dollars are involved.

Funeral Party Reached Richmond at

RICHMOND, Va. nel.-The funeral
train arrived at 800 o'clock. An hour
before this time the artillery began to
fire their guns, and the salutes con-
tinued until the remains rested in the
Capitol. From the depot they were
escorted by the Robert +. Lee Camp
and the First Virginia Regiment.
Miss Winnie Davis and the rest of
the family on the train joined Mrs
Davis at the hotel. Mrs. Davis reached

her were Miss Davis of Washington.

The crowds which have been enter

CHICAGO. May 51.-Bright as the
splendid glory of the heroes to whose
memory il is dedicated dawned this
twenty-seventh Decoration Day. From
shore 10 shore across this broad CONT
nent was marching a funeral cortege
But not with muft,ed drum, nor arms
reversed. nor furled banners. For
in loving memory of those whose
monuments are to-day crowned
with laurel, the flag they fought
for is flying free, the Grape has become
cloth of gold. On each blyonet is a
wreath of flowers: the dirge has
changed 20 the inspiriting quickstep
of liberty, the funeral procession has
merged into triumphal pageant. Not
in the history of the world is there a
more beautiful custom than the Ameri-
can Memorial day.
IN Chicago the occasion was observed
with more than usual display The
favorable weather induced thousands
TO visit the cemeteries where there are
soldiers graves. The military turnout
was the largest ever Sc n in Chicago
on Memorial Day. Every garden in
the State seemed TO have been denuded
of its bloom. so profuse was the floral
decorations laid on the tombs of the
patriots. At each cemetery there are
certain graves of men whose many
living friends still retain most atfec-
tiouate remem brance, and these were
literally covered with flowers. some of
the floral pieces being ella borate and
costly.
The formal ob.ervancc of the day
was the march To the cemeteries of'the
Grand ARM men. Ransom Post of
81 h d,
4 comradc. arrived from that city ut
$3.50 in the morning, and after break
fast proceeded to Rose Hill, where
special services were held at the tomb
of Gen. Ransom. Welter Post and
Welter Woman's Relief Corps attended
a memorial mass at the Bowmanville
Catholic Church and thence went TO
the ST. Boniface Cemetery, where they
de Grated the graves of the many Ger
man soldiers buried there. Addresses
were made by Revs. Err and Burlbach,
Mr.. Shubert and by Gertie Schom burg
of the Relief Corps
On the South side the G.. A. X. Posts
marched TO Oakwools Cemetery, where
memorial services were held and the
hundreds of soldiers graves then deco.
rated with flowers and American
flags. All the posts in Cook County
were represented in the column.
Incidental TO the days celebration
the Grand Army men laid the corner
stone of Memorial Hall in the Public
Library Building in Dearborn Park at
9 o'clock. The ceremony was per-
formed according TO the Grand Army
ritual and was very impressive. De-
tails from several of the posts took
part in the ceremonies

President Cleveland Prefers That Date
to One Ia September.
WASHINGTON, June 2. = President
Cleveland indie ated to one of his call
ers just before leaving for Hog Island
that October would probably be the
date of the assembling of the Lid
Congress in special session. Hereto
fore, as has been well known, the
President had rather leaned to the
suggestion that the midd of Septem-
Der would be the right time at which
to begin the business which had been
laid out for the Democratic party to
perform during the coming winter.
Several reasons have actuated him in
putting off the date of his call until Oc-
tober. The principal of these is believed
TO be the representations which have
been made TO him of the general I'M
healthiness of the month of Septem-
Der in Washington, or. in fact. in any
other low-lying city where malaria is
to be found. Then too many mem bers
of Congress, and possibly the President
himself, would not have returned or
dinarily from their Sunday outings by
the earlier date. and there might be
difficulty at the outset in getting a
quorum to transact business. For that
and other considerations the President
has concluded that delay of two
weeks in the contemplated program
will not be unwise, especially as it is
the belief OF many that greater pro-
gress will be possible when the cooler
weather sets in.

ideney.


WASHINGTON, June a.-Bobert l..
Lincoln has been in the country hardly
a week. vet he is honored by the papers
here with an able. bodied Presidential
boomlet IL is estimated that many
OF the Republican leaders look upon
Mr.. Lincoln as the man TO bring back
Illinois to the Republican fold. Ac-
cording TO the story the Republican
leaders are casting about for some plan
of recognition, which viii give them
new leaders on new lines. They are
anxious to strengthen themselves in
Indiana. Illinois and ohio. The loss
of the first two States and the narrow
escape of the other last fall
indicat ID the locality of their
weakness They hope TO redeem
themselves at the next ensuing state
elections. They count on the disap-
pointments growing out of the distribu-
lion OF marshals, fourth-class post
officers and other patronage 10 weeken
the Democrats in the next local cleo
tions, and thus they expect to excite
the party 10 activity.
They are looking with great deal
of interest to the election of Governor
OF Ohio They expect to ele Z Mckin-
lev for Governor, possibly over Camp
bell and out OF this some of them let
their imaginations draw a picture OF a
president al campaign TO come with
Mckinley and Robert L ncoln on their
ticket TO hold Ohio and Illinois, and
possibly through the dissatisfied policy
an ong Democrats in Indiana to give
Republican victory in Indiana.
Whether the ticket should read Nc
Kinney and Lincoln, or Lincoln and
Mckinley, is said to make no material
difference. as any arrangement of the
names would make the ticket strong
in the home states of the candidates.
II is being suggested also by the
local wseacrcs that the possibilities of
an Illinois man in the first or Sc ond
place of the Democratic ticket add TO
the availability of Mr. Lincoln. At
all events the Lincoln boom has been
started on It's round by the Washing
ton prophets and il promises to be
source of prolific comment.
