To Test the Dispensary Law.

CHARLESTON, March 15.--The State dis
pensary law is now on its way to the
United States Supreme Court. In the
United States Circuit Court, Judge
Simonton handed down decision in the
habeas corpus proceedings in the case Of
the master and crew of the schooner
Carolina, who had been arrested on a
charge Of violating the diSpenSary law.
Their vessel containing cargo OF
liquor brought from Savannah, Ga, 10
this port was seized by the police and
State constables and cOnfiscated. Suits
were brought to transfer the case to the
Federal court. and the master and crew
of the vessel were brought into that
court on habeaS corpus.
In the decision which orders the re-
lease of the men from custody Judge
Simonton expresses the opinion that the
arrest and detention of the defendants
was against the Interstate commerce law
and that the diSpensary law is unconsti-
tutionaI and indicates that it would be
best for the State and the public for the
case to be carried speedily before the
Supreme Court Of the United States.
