BLACK CHILDREN BARRED.
Decision in New York Against Coll

With whites.


ored People Attending Schools
With Whites.
New York, Aug. 23.-Colored children
of New York state, under decision
made yesterday by Justice Wilmot NJ.
Smith of the supreme court of Long Is
land, are barred from attending public
schools with white children. This APP
plies. however, only to those school di-
visions where separate schools have
been founded and maintained for coll
ored children. 1t is of far-reaching in
terest.
This decision was reached in the adj
| Indication of the case of Mrs. Cisco, col
ored. of the village of Jamaica, who ap-
| pealed to the court for writ of per-
| emptory mandamus to compel the
school board 10 admit her 13-year-old
boy to the schools of the village, ire
spective of color. The case was fought
peared for Mrs. Cisco, and the corpora
ton counsel, who appeared for the board.
Mrs. Cisco appeared before the prin-
cipal of the high school in Jamaica sew
eral times and asked to have her chill
dren placed in the Brenton Avenue
school, but each time was ordered to
send her children to the separate school
for colored children and each time re-
fused.
Twice she was arrested for violation
of the compulsory attendance act and
each time was acquitted.
Justice Smith says:
THE court of appeals decides that
under the provisions of the common
school act of 1854 authorizing the estab-
lshment of separate schools for the ed
ucation of the colored race the authori-
ties have power when in their opinion
the interests of education will be pro-
noted thereby, to establish schools for
the exclusive use of colored children
and, when such are established and
provided with equal facilities, to ex.
clude colored children from schools pro.
vided for white children. There is ne
claim that the statute was ever re-
pealed. The claim that the statute was
repealed by implication can not be
seriously entertained.

of law requires that the relief demanded
, by the relator be denied until granted
by the legislature or until the court o.
appeals revise or reverse it's former ad
