LIFE IN HAYTI.

When fire breaks out in the town
almost all the stores close, the troops
stand under arms, and few except the
firemen and the people near the place
Of conf1agration venture out in the
street, the reason being that most
revolutionary movements are started
in this manner. While fire draws the
attention to some remote part of Port
au Prince, the 'conspirators, as they
are always called, attempt to storm the
arsenal and the prison, liberating and
arming their inmates. Many a danger
Gus criminal owes his liberty to an Incl
dent of this nature.
Another peculiar feature of the con-
slant excitement is the so-called couru
derived from courier, the French
word for run-when everybody in the
streets starts to run. l remember well
one that happened in Port au Prince,
the capital, about five years ago, when
the situation was comparatively quiet.
Two young men who quarrelled about
a woman met near the market-p place,

FREIGHT RATE Law.
The Nebraska Act Declared Unconsti-
tutional.

The Nebraska Act Declared Unconsti-
tutional.
Washington, March 1.-THE supreme
court to-day rendered decision in the
Nebraska maximum freight-rate case.
The opinion was handed down by
fudge Harlan, and held the Nebraska
law to be contrary to the fourteenth
amendment in that it authorized the
taking of property without due process
Of law, and was, therefore, invalid.
opinion Of the circuit court of appeals
for the Eighth circuit.
The case was instituted to test the
validity of a law passed by the Nebras-
ka legislature in 1898, prescribing the
maximum rates for the transportation
of freight by railroads within the state.
The act applied specifically to freight,
whose transit began and ended in the
state, and there was no effort in it's en-
actment to control interstate freight
1T affected all the railroads in the SITE
and the railroad companies instituted
proceedings which were terminated in
to-day's opinion, by filing a bill in the
Nebraska circuit court soon after the
law was enacted. The object of the bill
was to secure an order restraining the
state of Nebraska from putting the law
into force.
The law was attacked on the ground
of it's constitutionality. 1t was charg-
ed that, inasmuch as the act applied
only to state freights, it was chargea-
IL oiy,o oooir, ct4 bay
and therefore antagonistic to the spirit
of the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution. The railway companies
commended that the maximum rate fixed
was unreasonable and ruinous to the
roads. 1t was also asserted that the
act interfered with interstate COM
merce The state met these allegations
with argument in support of the valid
ity of the law and also with the coun-
ter charge that the case was one of
which the federal courts could not
properly take jurisdiction.
The decision in the circuit court was
delivered by Judge Brewer of the SUI
preme court, who sustained the conten-
ton of the railroad. companies and held
against the validity of the law. His
opinion was based largely upon a
charge of unreasonableness. He made
a computation showing that the reduc-
ton effected in freight rates amounted
on an average to 291k per cent, which
he held was too great change. This
case has been twice argued in the SUI
preme court. W. J. Bryan appeared as
one of the counsel for the state at the
last hearing. Much interest has been
manifested in the decision ever since
the case was docketed, because of the
probable influence result favorable to
the law would have upon legislation in
other states.

drew their revolvers and fired at each
other. This caused a panic in the
market-halls; everybody commenced to
run, in order to get home. Nobody
knew what had happened; nobody
knew what was going to happen; those
who had not heard the shots, seeing the
others take to their heels, also ran for
the shelter of their homes. The stores
closed; strong attachments Of troops
patrolled the streets, headed by the
ef-of-police, the commanders of the
port, the town, and the "Arrondisse-
ment;" and finally the president him
SELF, being In doubt as to the outcome
OF the AFFAIR, left the palace and rode
through the streets at the head OF
about two hundred and fifty cavalry,
with their carbines ON the thigh and
their fingers on the trigger who were
followed by a battalion of infantry:
Only one man of the party besides the
officers was without a rifle; he carried
on his head a soapbox full of cartridg-
es. All this had been caused by few
shots exchanged between two men!
They We're promptly arrested, but the
majority Of people did not know until
the next morning why they ran" 1t
is indeed quite natural that they should
look for shelter at such a time; for JUS
tice (and sometimes injustice), always
summarily dispensed, is particularly
high-handed at the time of couru.
A similar march which President
Hippolyte made through the streets at
the head Of his troops to quell the May
insurrection of 1891 cost a good many
lives. However, had the revolution
been allowed to spread, thousands Of
Haytians might have fallen.-Leslie's
Weekly.
