Dispensary Law Void.

GREENvILLE, S. c., Aug. 22.-Judge
Simonton in the United States circuit
court has fled his decision in the case
against Langford, agent for the Rich
mond and Danville railroad, arrested
for delivering to the consignee a
key of whisky shipped from an out
side state. The court holds that the
state dispensary liquor law is in con-
dict with the state and United States
constitutions and is therefore void. The
state will probably appeal.

Rioted Against New Tolls.

VIENNA, March "a riot attended by
severe fighting and bloodshed occurred
Wednesday in the town of Szoboszlo,
Hungary. The cause of the outbreak was
the imposition of the new market tolls,
which the populace of Szoboszlo and of the
Haiduck district resented. After long
conflict the rioters were dispersed, three
of their number having been killed and
many seriously wounded. In addition to
the rioters killed during the fight a woman
was killed by the fire of the gendarmes
during the conflict at the market place, an
incident which added greatly to the fury
and obstinacy of the mob.
