WAS WITHOUT JURISDICTION
Judge Jackson's Civil Service Decision Be
versed.
An Important Ruling by the United
missiOners Unwilling to Discuss 1t.

In the United States Supreme Court to-
day Justice Harlan handed down the opin-
ion Of the court in the case of A. d. White,
collector of internal revenue for the dis
trfct OF West Virginia, against Berry. But
Ter and Ruckman. appealed from the cir
cult court of the United States for West
Virginia.
TIE appellees were gaugers and store
keepers at the Hannis distillery, West Vir-
ginia. and Mr.. White. who was appointed
to the office of internal revenue collector
by President Mckinley, announced his pur-
pose to remove them and appoint republi-
cans in their places. They resisted removal
on the ground that, as they were employed
under the civil service law, they could not
be removed except for cause shown and
pro we'd.
In the West Virginia circuit court an
order was issued sustaining the appellees
and inhibiting White from in anywise in
teTferins with the plaintiffs in the posses
sion Of their offices and the discharge of
their duties.
1t was contended on behalf of the gov
eminent that the circuit court sitting in
equity. as it did in the case. was without
Jurisdiction to entertain the suit. The
opinion today accepts this view of the mat
ter, reverseS the circuit court. and does
rot therefore enter upon the merits Of
the various questions involved. Justice
Harlan said:
IF the assignment to some one to duty
as gauger at the Hannis distillery in the
place of the plaintiff did not work his re-
n.cval from office. a court of equity ought
not to assume to control the discretion
which the executive department has in all
matters. Interference by the judicial de-
partment would lead to the utmost confu-
SION in the management Of executive mat
teS"
The civil service commissioners received
Information this afternoon of the decision
of the Supreme Court, but their informa-
ton was conflicting. The members con-
cluGed, therefore, to wait until copy Of
tie decision had been received before dis
cuSsing the matter.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, May 31.-The initial prices
on the stock exchange today showed con-
siderable advance over the final quotations
Saturday, with London quite an important
factor in the movement. Early cables
showed that prices for international stocks
had caught up with our advance. and were
ahead of US to the extent of y per cent,
which further Influenced the high opening
in the local market.
The trading today was quite active and
was of a character to stimulate the public
to come into the market. On account or
the rapid advance in prices recently the
tendency has been to keep out, but buyers
are now taking courage and the proba-
bility is that the advance will be con-
tinued.
After opening to a good advance, and In
one speciality nearly two points, the market
commenced to move upward. and continued
to do so throughout the day. with but
slight interruption. The rise was not con-
fined to any particular speciality, but was
general in character. The low-priced
stocks. however, were the more active ana
consequently scored the greater advance,
and this is a good criterion Of the returning
interest of the investor in the market.
There was considerable activity today by
houses with western connections especially
ln ROCK lSl4nu, Wnlch, aIter opening Will
a splendid advance, was moved up TO above
los by buying for these accounts. The
dividend will be announced tomorrow, and
there Is considerable speculation as to
what 1t will be. From the best of informa-
ton, it is figured on as 81 per cent cash
ard per cent scrip. The rest of the gran
gers were not neglected, and continued to-
ward a higher range.
The price of sugar commenced to move
just before the noon hour, and without
much difficulty it was advanced to 40 .-s.
The buying was confined to the source that
Is instrumental in movements of this
speciality. Metropolitan street railway was
a little heavy today. and did not respond
with the list. This stock has had an enor-
nous rise. and acts as if it was satisfied
to wait.
The bond market continued very active
and strong today. Good investment bonds
are very scarce, and most of the attention
is now directed toward per cents.
The market declined little during the
lest hour on realizing.

PROPERTY OWNER OBJECTS.
Request Made for the Revocation OF Z
Permit,

Request Made for the Revocation OF =
Permit.
An interesting question came up before
the District 8pgnrissioners, today. when
Mrs Frank Wright. who owns lot in
Mt PLEASE Mt. 4sked that a permit. issued
last January to Mr. g. A. Hundley to con-
struct and occupy wood and coal yard
Lear her property, be revoked. The build
ing regulationa| provide that where site
proposed to be occupied for such a purpose
Is within fifty feet of building, the con-
sent of all property owners within ninety
feet Of the ste' shall be obtained before
the permit shall be issued.
1t appeared &t.the hearing today, when
Mrs. Wright was repre- esented by Attorney
J. J. Wilmarth, that there are buildings
WITHIN hfty feet of the site occupied by
Mr. Hundley and were there before tho
permit was issued. 1t also appeared that
she is a property owner within ninety feet,
Dut tnat her consent was never given. Mr..
Hundley contended that he was informed
by an inspector in the building inspectors
office that the consent of Mrs. Wright was
not Necessary, and the permit was issued
oy the assessor under the impression that
the lot owl ed by Mrs. Wright was owned
by another person. Mrs. Wright decla red
that she informed Mr.. Hundley that she
owned the lot and that she would not
give her consent. and Mr.. FitZhugh of the
assessors office. also stated that he in
Ior1ned MIN after the permit had been is
sued that 1t had been Inadvertently issued
and that he must get Mrs. Wright's con-
sent.
The Commissioners reserved their de-
cision, and will meantime require a state
ment from the inspector in the office of
inspector of buildings, as to the correct
