WASHINGTON Jan. THE Supreme
Court of the United States to-day denied
the petition of E. v. Debs ct al, particle
pants in the Dig strike, for a writ of error.
Chief Justice Fuller delivered the opinion.
and said it was the unanimous opinion OF
the court that the writ would not lie. With
reference to the application for habeas
corpus leave was granted to file a petition,
ana a rule was entered making it returna-
Bile on the 18th inst. There was no writ
ten opinion, and the proceedings were con-
fined to the briefest possible statement. At
toriey barrow was present as the repre-
sentative of Debs and his associates, and
Assistant Attorney-general Whitney repre-

They disclose the fact that the Hawaiian

to Hawaii as a station for a submarine te1e-
graph cable to be laid from Canada to
Australia with a connection between the
waiian government and the representatives
of Great Britain in this negotiation con-
cede that the proposed lease cannot be eff

the Hawaiian government and that our con-

Cleveland's recommendation in 1883.
quoted above. and the change can only
be accounted for on the theory that
the new policy Of spite has necessitated
a reconstruction of his views. AS the
Harrison administration favored a
United States cable to Hawaii it would
not do for the second Cleveland adj
ministration to do so. and to head off
any further movement in that direc-
ton he recommends that Congress shall
promote the British scheme.
1t will be observed thai in his recent
communication to Congress the Presi-
dent expresses the hope that it will "see
fit to grant the request of the Hawaiian
government and that our consent to the
proposed lease will be promptly ac-
corded" 1t is asserted by those who
a read the correspondence that the
government of Hawaii has not asked
the United States to consent to the pro-
posed lease to Great Britain. and that
the suggestion is the result of a con-
ference between British commissioners
and Secretary Gresham in which he
assured them that the United States
woul make no opposition to the laying
of a British cable. 1t is probable that
when all the facts come to light they
will make another interesting page in
the history of the policy of infamy.

MIR. Olney's Statement.

MR. Olney'S statement.
Mr.. Olney accompanied the bill sent to
Mr.. Mccain, at the latter's request, with a
statement Of his views on the several pro-
visions of the original bill and his reasons
for such new matter as had been incor-
porated in it. The Attorney-generaPs state
ment starts out by disclaiming for every
one save himself any responsibility for the
views contained in his letter. His first OBJ
lection is to what might be called the
Pullman clause, which is too obviously
aimed at Mr.. Pullman to be otherwise con-
strued, but hitting as well every other man
ufacturer of cars. The vital objection to
the clause is that a manufactures of cars
is not engaged in interstate m and
does not become so engaged, whether he
sells or lets cars to a carrier who is, and
any attempt to bring him within the act
must prove abortive and tend to discredit
the act generally. On the other hand, Mr..
Olney is of the opinion that every person
engaged in operating a car used in inter-
state commerce ought to come within the
act.
1t is the Attorney-generaIs judgment that
the permanent standing commission provid-
ed for by the bill for all cases is not only
not needed, but would be of less value than
a special commission provided for each
case as it may arise, as it is not believed
t42oS OA - AAiCAJ " y ~
often or to be SO serious as to require the
establishment of the cumbersome and cost
~ machinery provided for by the bill. Once
such a commission is established it will
never be got rid of. The objection that
this commission might be needed for the
purposes set forth in Section 3, that the
conditions of employment subject to the
act may be investigated and ascertained,
Mr.. Olney meets with the suggestion that
the Commission, as at
present constituted, might with equal salts
faction obtain all the ormati called
for, and, acting with the Commissioner of
Labor, IL might properly be charged by a
special act of Congress with the duties of
of the bin. THAT arbitration should be re-
sorted to for the settlement of controver-
sizes between employers and their EN-
pIoyes,' Mr.. Olney says, need not be dis
cussed. The only alternative is industrial
wars, and they are as illogical as brutal,
and as wasteful as the wars by which in
ternational disputes are often accompan-
led"
Assuming arbitration to be both desirable
and needful. Mr.. Olney contends that its
tribunal should be a special body organ
lied on fixed principles with reference to
each part in either case as tx arises, rather
than a permanent body with general juris-
diction over all cases. The machinery OF
arbitration, he thinks, should not be put
in motion at the instance OF one or more
isolated individuals, but only at the in
stance OF a class, that is, of q whole body
of employees performing the same business.
