SOUTHERN PACIFIC VICTORY.
The Oakland Water Front Case Thrown
Ont on Technfcalfties.

Washington City. March fs-Chief jus
tice Fuller today delivered an opinion dis
missing the bill in equity brought by the
state of California against the Southern
Pacigc Railroad Company. involving the
for want OF original jurisdiction. This
disposition of the case was made neces-
sary by the conclusion by tho court that
rs there were parties interested In the dis
position OF 1t. such as the town OF Oak
land and the Water Front Company. who
do not appear as parties To the present
suit. IL was not equitable 10 finally adj
Indicate the case unless these Interests
were represented In tho suit. Justice Full
Ter stated that while the rights of the
town and the water front company would
not be technically determined. they would
be efYectuaily passed upon. With the mat
ter placed I'm this light. the next question
TO be decided was whether the supreme
court had original jurisdiction and in
reaching a negative conclusion the opin-
ion discussed at some length the provi-
sions OF the constitution referring TO or
iginal Jurisdiction. While there was some
reason for doubt as TO the course 10 no
pursued the court was of the opinion that
the constitution meant 10 he explicit in its
confirmation OF original jurisdiction. and
as provision was not made for a comi,in-
alton OF citizens Of the state at Interest
with those OF another state. the Inference
was that in such cases the supreme court
could only exercise appellant and not or
tginai Jurisdiction.
