Elsewhere in this issue will be found |
the full text of the opinion OF the
Supreme Court of the State of Della
ware, as delivered by Judge Grubb in |
Dover, yesterday, in the issue involving
the legality of the Municipal Court OF
the city of Wilmington. The opinion
of the Supreme Court is in favor OF
the Municipal Court.
The issue thus determined grew out
of an appeal in an assault and battery
case tried in the Municipal Court, the
appellants raising the contention that
the Municipal Court had no iuris-
diction or legal existence, as it had
been wiped out by the new Consti-
tuition. On hearing of the appeal
the Superior Court sustained the
Municipal Court, and then recourse
was had 20 the recently constituted
Supreme Court of the State. Il
In the course OF his very complete
and interesting opinion, Judge Grubb
reviews the status of the Municipal
Court thoroughly and conclusively. He
shows that the court was lawfully
created, organized and empowered,
and that it's jurisdiction was legally
existing at the time the new Consti-
tuition went into effect. He further
gives ample evidence that the trainers
of our present Constitution did not
| intend to abolish the Municipal Court
i in the course of any of the provisions
of the new instrument respecting the
courts of the State. The decision is
that the Municipal Court and its iuris-
diction were continued and are ia
existence by the present Constitution,
and therefore the Judgment Of the
Superior Court in the pending case is
affirmed.
The decision of the Supreme Cour
was not only generally expected, bu
will be warmly endorsed by public
sentiment in the city of Wilmington
where the subject is Of particula
interest 1t is we'll known that eve
since its establishment this court ha
encountered system of jealous oppo
sition in certain quarters, but it ha
always been popular with the people
because it furnished a satisfactor
tribunal for the prompt hearing an
determination of the cases that cor
stantly prevail in thickly-settle
community. 1t has proved valuabl
medium for the administration {
: Justice. and its breaking down at thi
9 time, with no Legislature at hand {
supply the consequent defcienc,
would be calamity. The public wi
: rejoice, therefore, that the suprem
J. judicial authority Of the State has d.
. cared that it has a clear and undi
:. puted title to existence.
x Instead OF having the Municip
IT Court abolished the people of Wi
'e mington would much prefer to have i
IS jurisdiction extended, so that it cou
y dispose of many of the petty cases tn
III now have to depend upon the slow
TT and costlier processes of the coun
y, court.

Commissioner Robert P, Porter has
returned from Europe with the report
that the 'embalmed beef" agitation
in this country has hurt the American
meat business in Germany to the ex-
tent Of from 500, 900, 600 to s2o, 600, 600 a
year. Mr.. Porter's language gives the
impression, says the Philadelphia Led
ger, that he regards the charges as
unfounded; but the testimony of
officers and men who had experience of
the beef is not to be lightly dismissed.
If the men who furnished it to the
army are now losing more in "a month
than they gained by cheating the
soldiers, the country at large will not
worry. The general verdict will be

The censorship at Manila is SO strict
that meeting Of correspondents was

action of the United States military
authorities. Nothing is allowed to be
sent out on matters which affect the
administration at Washington aud
unless dispatches are rosy and opti
mistic they are not allowed 10 go. |
have Just returned from Manila and a
correspondent submitted his matter
only TO have it held up by the authors

There is great anxiety on the part of
the volunteer soldiers to return home,
although any mention of the fact is
suppressed by the censor. The censor
also prevents the report of the terrible
suffering from the heat being sent.
The situation there is awful. Our
men drop like sheep from the over
towering influence of tho SUMS rays.
| Nothing concerning the movements Of
the army is allowed to go out, although
the local papers freely use this news.
