A PLUMBERS APPEAL.
Testing the Constitutionality of the
District Regulations.

Lawyers Weed and Coleman made a move
today toward testing the plumbing regula-
tons. Under the regulations plumbers are
required to undergo an examination, and, If
rejected, they cannot get licenses to operate
as master plumbers. Several persons who
operated after having been refused license
have been arrested, and now the constitu-
tonality of the regulation is to oe tested.
John ]. Mccain, a plumber, was complain
ed against by James s. Frawley, an en-
ploye of the District, and the case was set
for trial in the Police Court today. When
the case was called to the attention of Judge
Miller counsel asked for a postponement,
and surrendered their client for the purpose
of applying for writ of habeas corpus in
the Supreme Court Of the District
An application for such a writ was made
out and presented. The writ set forth that
Mccain was Illegally restrained of his
liberty, and that there is In force in the
District no regulation such as is charged
to have been violated; also that the alleged
regulations are illegal and without authority
of law.
Counsel for Mccain at once applied to
Judge Hagner for a writ of habeas corpus
directed that the writ issue, returnable
before him or some other judge of the court
at o'clock this afternoon.
Mccain was produced before Judge Hag-
ner at O'Clock this afternoon by a bailifr
of the Police Court. Mr. S. T. Thomas, the
attorney for the District stated that he was
not prepared to make a proper return to
the writ, and Judge Hagner thereupon con-
tnued the case until 1 o'clock next Monday
afternoon. Mccain was not, of course
formally discharged from the custody of the
bailin, although the latter released him
from actual custody upon the assurance
that he would surrender himself at o'clock
on Monday.

CONDITION OF RIVER WATER
Az Noted by the Trained Eyes of National
Aoademicians.
Papers Presented by DIR. J. s. Billings
"A Final Adjournment Today
Hardly Likely.

The National Academy of Sciences which
has been in session in this city since Tues
day, held another public meeting this after
noon in the lecture hall of the National
Museum. A number of papers Of more
than usual interest were read by members
who knew what they were talking about.
Noteworthy among these were two papers
by DIR. ]. s. Billings of the Army Medical
Museum on the subject of his researches
into the bacteriology of water. There were
two of these papers, one on the influence
of light upon the bacillus of typhoid and
the colon bacillus, and the other on the
bacteria of river water.
The latter paper contained a resume of
the Investigations made by DIR. Wright, a
fellow of the University of Pennsylvania,
of the water supply of the city of Philadel-
phia. This is generally considered as par
ticularly bad, but a comparison made with
the water supply of New York and of Bos-
ton was not SO unfavorable to the city OF
brotherly love as one would have expected.
There was not a noticeable number OF
pathogenic or disease-spreading bacilh in
the water of Philadelphia, but this was &C
counted for partly by the fact they are so
few when compared with the innocuous
be cilli that they are completely overwheim-
ed by the latter. The system of examine
ton, too, was that of taking a drop of
water and examining that, so that IL there
in pint of water the chances OF their
being discovered were particularly small.
In his discussion of the subject, Dr. Bill
iEgs said that there is no river in the coun-
try that has been studied to such an extent
that one can say that all is known OF its
fauna and bacteria, by genus species, &c.
There is a marked similarity between the
colon and the typhoid bacilli, and IL may
be, as some authorities think, that the
ty phoid is an outgrowth Of the colon, which
Is harmless, and even useful, existing as
II does by the million in the intestines OF
every human being and materially aiding
digestion and assimilation.
Papers still to lie Read.
The academy may possibly finish UP its
sessions this afternoon. but this is hardly
likely, as there are still number of Papers
remaining to be read. among them the fol-
lowing: "On the production of beats aid
beat-tones by the covibration of two

ately sounded they are inaudible." A. AZ.

LATE NEWS BY WIRE.
South Cardinals Dispensary Law
Unconstitutional.
STATE SUPREME COURT DECISION
Powers Which the Legislature
Cannot Give.
ONEOFTHEJUSTICES DISSENTS
Special to Associated Press.

Special to Associated Press.
COLUMBIA, 8. c.. April 19-The Till
man state dispensary liquor law has just
been declared unconstitutional by the SUI
preme court of South Carolina, two justices
concurrine in and one the Tillman member
of the supreme beneh) dissenting from the
opinion.
The decision was rendered in composite
case originating in Darlington testing the
constitutionality of the dispensary law and
appealed to the supreme court by the state
authorities and of several minor cases like
wise appealed by the state. The ground
on which the law Is declared unconstitu-
tional Is that it creates a monopoly for the
state.
Justice Pope filed a dissenting opinion
affirming the constitutionality of the law.
The decision was rendered by Chief JUS
tice McIvers. Justice MCGOWAN asserting.
Justice McIvers declares the law unconsti-
tically holds that it cannot be upheld on
any vital point. The profit to the state
feature is declared vicious.
AS the news is spreading over the city In
terest Is growing like wildfire "a
Governor Tillman says he Is not talking
that 1t is time only for action.
The state will probably be painted red
today.
Points OF the Dec1s1On.
The court decides after reviewing the
case, that in no view of the suit can the
dispensary act be regarded as a police reg
ulation of the business of selling intoxi-
eating liquors. and that IL 1t could be so re-
garded such police power does not include
the power on the part Of the state to en-
gage in carrying on such business.
As to the revenue feature, 1t is held that
the legislative department, under the gen.
eral power of taxation conferred upon It,
cannot impose any tax except for some
public purpose. and, upon the same prin-
ciple. II seems clear to the majority of the
court that any act of the legislature which
is designed to or has the effect of embark
ing the state in any trade which involves
the purchase and sale of any article of
commerce for profit Is outside of and alto
gether beyond the legislative power con-
ferred upon the general assembly by the
constitution.
Trade, the court says. is not and cannot
properly be regarded one of the func-
tons Of the government. 1t seems to the
the state to engage in any trade or business
determined adversely to such right In the
recent case of Mauldin against Greenville,
a local case, which the court cited as au-
thortty for today's decision.
The court is careful to say that in the
Chester case, one of those decided today, 1t
carefully avoided the consideration of any
constitutional question. Holding the act
unconstitutional, the court decides that 1t
Is unnecessary to consider the minor de-
tails OF the law. and reaffirmed the opinion
OF Judge Hudson in that case.
