The Decision of the Supreme Court Has
Mixed Mnttersup

Aho DociSiou OIL me supreme Court Has
Mixed Matters up.
COLUMBIA, S 9, April 20.-The dis
pensary decision has lott thousands in
this State in doubt. At first IL was
thought that the decision was com
plete knock out for tho dispensaries.
1t was probably so, but there are MANY
perpleXing elements about the whole
matter which leaves the situation mud
died.
1t Is now claimed that the decision was
that every part OF the count was un-
constitutional except that part which
forbids the granting of license for the
sale OF whiskey. II that portion is con.
sititutional, 1t changes the phrase Of at
fairs, but the curious part is that IL
Licenses can not be issued, no punish
mont is provided for those who do bust
ness.
The saloon mon here have not opened
and are awaiting developments. They
are afraid to open business publicly
until there Is settlement of the in
teresting and doubtful questions. Gov
ernor Tillman's absence from tho CITY
ADDS to the uncertainty, as everybody
is waiting to see what he is going to
do He will return tonight, and to-
morrow the programme Of tho State
may be untolded. Dispensaries arc
still doing business throughout the
State, and there is no probability that
they will be closed for some time,
although injunctions may DO Cotton out
against them.
1t is claimed by the administration
supporters that the decision only affects
the law which was repealed by the last
session OF the Legislature, and not the
law now in effect. The cases under
which tho law was decided were brought
under the old law. The present law,
however. contains the same features
which have been declared unconstitu-
tional, and the court would decide the
same way with tho recent law. There
Is also talk OF the State asking for a
rehearing OF the case

Mr. Wheeler said he thought it in

In the House, whose hands, it might be
said, were red with the blood of par

engaged in assassinating parliamentary
days, to raise the objection that had
been made. He asked, in conclusion,
unanimous consent that his rem arks, as
read, be permitted to remain as il de-
livered at that time.
Mr.. Dockery moved that the matter

Ing, with right to report at any time.
Mr.. Wheeler said he wanted the
whole matter blotted out. Whereupon
Mr.. Burrows and other Republicans
objected. From this o parliamentary
tangle ensuod, tho result of whic D
was that Mr.. Dockery Withdrew his
motion to refer the matter to the CON-
mittee on printing
Mr.. McRae (Dem., Ark offered a
motion then to permit the gentleman
from Alabama to withdraw from the

Mr.. Reed moved to amend by adding
that the speech delivered BE- inserted

The Roanoke baseball team left last

there is circus in Petersburg on We'd

with him last night the following men:

Mccoy. Smith. Holbrook Everson and
Crockett Neves, the new pitcher, will
arrive In the city to day and will leave
Tomorrow to join the team.
Daniel and McGinnis will not accom-.
pany the club on this trip. This club
could not afford to carry all it's men,
and, as both Of tho above named are
residents OF this city, it is cheaper to
have them at home than men for whom
the club would have to pay board This
first trip is in the nature of an experi-
ment, and 1t is possible that some of
the mon will not BIO retain cd when the
club returns home.
In the game with Allegheny Institute
Wednesday Frech injured his hand, and
will probably not BIO able to play until
Monday. In that case Mccoy will cover

The nervous system is fearfuly delicate

These lead to nervous prostration, pa

Chicago is also having its reform wave,
and it has very much the appearance of
meaning business. At an immense public
meeting held in Central Music hall, with
two or three overflow meetings, men like
Marshall Field and p. D. Armour attend
ed, and lawyers, bankers, Protestant min
listers, Roman Catholic priests, college pro-
fessors, merchants and labor agitators were
among the speakers. Rev. Dr. Clark, the
DR.. Parkhurst of that city, stated the num-
Der of public gambling places which would
be closed, and declared that other forms of
gambling would next be attacked. Bucket
shops will be closed. Property owners who
rent such premises for immoral purposes
will be prosecuted, and a general stirring
up of the criminal classes is threatened.

To Recover $4,SOO,OOO.
Another Attempt to Secure Fortune
from the Bottom Of the Sea.


Another attempt is to be made to raise
the treasure of S4SOO.OOO in British gum
cas-, which went down off Port Morris in
Long Island Sound, in 1850, with the Eng
fish man Of war Hussar. The plan which
is to be put in operation in few days is
the most novel yet devised. George w.
Thomas of Orange, n. j., who is said to
represent a syndicate with capital of
S750,0OO, has chartered the tug Chester
and fitted her out with wrecking appliances.
The Chester will be so moored above the
spot where the wreck lies that it will re-
main stationery. Divers will be sent down
to loosen the sand and earth that hides the
wreck at a given point. At that point a
big tube, connected with a powerful sue
tion-pump on board the Chester, will be
applied. The loosened material will thus
be pumped to the surface and then shot
through a giant sieve. This sieve will not
permit the passage of anything as large as
a guinea.
