AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
It Was Handed Down in the United States
 Supreme Court.

Supreme Court.
 Washington, April IA case was de- cided in the supreme court to-day which Justice Gray said in announcing the opinion involved the law of general average ''in a matter of considerable importance and some novelty" The circumstances are these:
 The firm of Rallie Brothers of Lon don chartered the ship J. w. Parker, owned by Troop & Son, ship owners of St. Johns, N. B., to be loaded with jute and saltpetre at Calcutta and trans ported to New York. The day the ship was to have sailed fire broke out in the hold, and in the absence of the master the port authorities took possession of the vessel, finally scuttlng her to ex- tinguish the fire. There was a oontro- versy between the master, who had in the meantime come aboard, and the port authorities, as to the best method of subduing the fire, the opinion of the lat ter prevailing
 The question, said Justice Gray, was whether the scuttling of the ship under the circumstances was such a sacrifice for the common benefit of owners and shippers as would make the ship ovn- ers liable under the law of general averages" to their proportionate con- tr1bution to the loss on cargo. The law was somewhat elaborately discussed by the Justice, and as a conclusion he an nounced an opinion that the act was not a voluntary sacrifice by the master of the vessel, but compulsory sacrifice by the port authorities and that the law of general averages did not obtain The Judgment of the court below, the circuit court of the southern district of New York, that the claim of general av- craze, should be sustained, was revers- ed and the case was remanded with in structiens to dismiss the claim and for further proceedings in accordance with the opinion.
 Justices Brown and Harland dissent ed, holding that the action of the port was in effect the act of the master they being in command of the vessel under the law and the maritime rules applicable to the charter, and that the vessels owners were properly chargeabie with their proportion of the loss.

A PREDICTION VERIFIED.-The ex-
cessively hot weather reported in the
East, 80 far in advance of the usual
extreme heighth OF temperature for
the season, recalls the fact that some
writer predicted that this would be an
unusually hot year. He based his
opinion upon the statement that this
was the year of "lunar cycle" OCCUR
ring once in 10 years, during which
the weather of both winter and sum-
mer has invariably been much warm
er. He says that the summer of 1857
WAS intensely hot-100 and over in
the shade for many consecutive days.
Then again in 1856 he cites the fact
that carpenters worked all winter upon
the Centennial buildings, and the
summer of 1875 was intensely hot
and the victims IT, sunstroke many of
them strangers to the country. And
80 10 years more brings us TO the pres
ent season-1894-5; and il we may
Judge by the past-the present winter
as all know having been mild here
the summer which is to follow, &C.
cording to this prediction, must be a
acorcher."
