Three Dissenting Opinions.

At the conclusion of Justice Grays
opinion, Justice Brewer announced that
he felt compelled to dissent from the
view OF Il majority of the court. He
read his views at some length, .leclur-
ing i'll substance that the act Ct 1892
was unconstitutional, and that il it
were upheld there was no guarantee
that similar treatment might not be ;>c-
corded to other classes of our population
than the Chinese.
Justice Field. who delivered the opin-
ion Of the supreme court of the United
States IL til: first case under the excl,:s-
ion act, also read :, dissenting opinion.
He held that there was IL wide differ.
ence between exclusion Of Immigrants
and the deportation Of alien residents,
and he li,; ~acterized the act in the
strongest language as inhuman and
brutal, and i'll violation of the const,tu-
ton Of every section. He regretted to
say that the decision of the court was
to his mind, fraught with the greatest
dangers to the priceless constitutional
liberties OF the people.
Chief Justice Fuller also dissented
from the opinion Of the court.
Moved a Rehcarins.
After the court had concluded the
announcement Of opinions Mr.. Ashton,
of counsel for the Chinese, moved i

as to the requirements that the
Chinese entitled to remain in this coun-
try should establish that right by the
evidence OF one credible white witness,
Justice Gray said that it was within
the power oi the legislature to deter
mine the character of evidence that
might be received in case at law and
what force should be given to the testi-
mony SO offered. Not discussing the
wisdom nor the justice Of the act in
question which was beyond the pro-
vince Of the judicial branch of the gov
eminent it remained only to say that
the judgement of tho circuit court for
the southern district of New York in
refusing to grant writs of habeas cor
p'1s to the several petitioners was af~
firmed. Mr.. Justice Gray stated that
it had been impossible in the brief time

ment upon the petitions to prepare in

Opinion.

WASHINGTON, May l6.-The supreme
court, through Justice Gray, has sus.
tanned the decision of the New York
court in favor of the constitutionality
OF the Geary exclusion act
The announcement that decision in
the case was expected attracted large
attendance of spectators and the fact

"A Well Settled yE'rinciplr

Gaudaur Beats Hanlan

An Orilla, Ont, paper says that the
Hanlan- Ga udaur boat race was rowed
over on July "a on account of the foul
Saturday. Gaudaur won by seven
lengths. The water was very lumpy,
and the men were not called out until
5:45. Hanlan shot to the front like a
flash, and was soon leading by a
length. Hanlan kept in front for the
first half mile. Gaudaur put on 3
squirt and reduced the lead, passing
his opponent about the mile post, and
at the turn he was leading by a
length, which he increased to seven
as he creased the line. The time was
1858, Hanlan finishing IL seconds be-.
hind. Hanlan has notified the stake
holders not to pay over the stake
money, as he claims that the course
had been altered since Saturdays
race, which led to his defeat.

steamship Empress of India has ar
rived with news of the murder of two
Swedish missionaries by Chinese ia

Want More Time.

CINCINNATI, July 27.-The distillers
of Cincinnati and vicinity who will be
called on August to pay their share
of about $S,OOO,O0O taxes on whisky
distilled in May and June, 1850, have
addressed a request to Secretary Car
Isle to instruct the collectors to delay
collection for 80 days. They say the
present financial situation is abnor-
NAL, and if they withdrew that sum of
money from the banks and from cir
culation at this time it would heighten
the present distress and be of no ad-
vantage to the government. Local
bankers have endorsed the request.

MASONIC SORROW.
Death Of Grand Commander Bachelor at
Washington City Yesterday.

The telegram from Washington an
nouncing the death of James G.
Bachelor, grand commander of the
supreme council of SD degree Scottish
Rite Masons was not entirely unex.
pected by members of the craft. For
months past DR.. Bachelor has been
confined to his room and unable to
discharge the duties of his Office, and
Lieutenant Grand Commander Philip
Q. Tucker of Galveston has been in
Washington In charge of the office,
from which place he returned to Gal
weston for short visit to his family
last Tuesday. On the death of Grand
Commander General Albert Pike two
years ago, Lieutenant Grand Com
mander Bachelor, then in feeble
health, was called from his home in
New Orleans to Washington, and
acted as grand commander ad interim
until the meeting of the supreme coun
Gil last year, when he was elected
grand commander, and Grand Prior
Philip G.. Tucker was elected lieuten'
ant Grand commander. The death OF
Mr. Bachelor places Lieutenant
Grand Commander Philip G..
Tucker as the grand commander ad
interim until the next regular meeting
of the supreme council in Washington
in October, 1894, unless a successor TO
the grand commander can be elected
at the called meeting of the council,
which will be held next October in st.
Louis. The remains of Grand Com.
mander Bachelor will probably be
under the immediate charge of Secre-
tary General Fred Weber and es

Commander Tucker, assisted by mem

SIAMESE TROUBLE

PARIS, July 26.-Diboto says thal
after noting that the region south of
the twenty third parallel, to which
France hopes to extend her territory
in Siam, includes the provinces coded
by Great Britain to Siam, makes these
comments: This we believe is what
the Marquis Dufferin was charged to
represent to M. Develle, and what
China also will direct attention to. 1t
is useless therefore to shut our eyes to
the fact that beyond certain points We
no longer have to deal with Siam but
perhaps with England and certainly
with China"
