New Orleans Drainage Warrants

Washington, November 13.-In the United States supreme court today, Justice Brown handed down the opinion of the court in the case of the city of New Orleans vs. John G. Warner. The case involved tho validity of certain drainage warrants issued by the city in 1876 to pay for drainage plant, which warrants the city repudiated.
 The court held that the contract was valid and the warrants legal. Referreing to the objection that the price paid for the plant was excessive, Justice Brown said the court could not concern itself with that phase of the question. "It Is not respectable" he said. flor the court to inquire whether there was a job in the transaction

CHINESE EXCLUSION
 IN PHILIPPINES
Question Engaging Attention of
 State Department.
ADMIRAL DEWEY'S POSITION
Understood to Favor Admission of Gel estials Thought That Otis Op-
 poses Idea Attitude of Pres
 ident Schurman Not Known

Washington, November 13. - Whether Chinese exclusion should be applied to the Philippines is among the subjects engaging the attention of the administration. Con- siderable evidence bearing on the matter has been collected. Besides presenting this testimony With their furl report, it is ex- peoted that a recommendation will be made which will have considerable influence in shaping the course of this government and the action of congress.
 It is understood that two of the members of the commission, Messrs. Denby and Worcester, have expressed themselves as favorable to an application of the Chinese exclusion act ito the Philippines. From the fact that General Otis has issued an order for Chinese exclusion it is assumed that his voice as a member of the commission would be for Chinese exclusion in the Phil- ippines.
 The position of Admiral Dewey, however, is understood ito be Favorable to Chinese admission. While this personal view of the admiral has been expressed to friends, it is not known whether he would give it official expression in case all uhis colleagues on the commission favored a reduction of exclusion. The attitude of President Schur- man has not been made known even in an informal way.
 The exclusive is involved to some extent with the inquiries with which the United States is now making of other powers as to tine maintenance of an open door policy in China. It was stated today in an au- thorftative diplomatic quarter that in case the United States adopted a permanent policy of Chinese exclusion of the Philip pines there was little doubt such a course would cause China ito be less friendly dn her cooperation with the plans of the United States to extend our trade in the empire.

 ~C~~~~~S~-~~~-~ the republican party and that court of inquiry cannot make matters worse there, while it may tend to make them better. Senator McComas was at the White House today to protest against the publication of the recent letter of Secretary Long. in which the latter attacks Admiral Sohley. It is not believed that the president will take any action in the matter, or permit tine navy department to take any official notice of General Agnus' charges. Captain Crowninshield, however, Doasted openly to- day that Admiral Schley's friends had given an opportunity for an Investigation and tG1a neither Secretary Long nor tine ad- ministration would dare to let the charges of falsifcation stand without ordering an Investigation.
 Nothing official can be done in the matter until Secretary Long returns. In the mean time, every effort will be made by the presidents friends to keep him from yield ing to the petty and conemtpible spirit

IN ELEGENT QUARTERS
Dr. Russell's Medical Institutes New
 Home

Among the new and creditable improve ments to be noticed in Birmingham is the handsome home of the Russell Medical h. stitute, on North Eighteenth street, which has just been completed, and which is now occupied.
 An Age-Herald representative visited the institute yesterday afternoon and was shown through the various departments. Everything essential in the treatment of stitution is supplied throughout with the most modern equipments. Aside from the elegance of the building from an architect ural standpoint, everything from the hand- some parlor, or ladies' reception room, in the front, to the bath rooms in the rear bear evidences of taste and artistic skill There are three reception rooms, one for ladies, a general reception room and one for colored people. Dr. RuSsellS offices, the operating rooms, the department in which braces for deformities are manufactured, the laboratories, etc., are all splendidly equipped. An important feature of the in- stitution is the brace manufactory, which is amply provided with machinery, power, etc. Another important and valuable feat ure is an electric bath outfit, which was put in at cost of $l,0OO.
 Dr Ralph M Russell, the founder and proprietor of the Russell Medical Institute. is widely and favorably known. He is one of the south's most distinguished special ists, being a graduate of Kings college of London England, having travelled exten- sively in Europe in pursuance of his scien- fife Investigations and having been emil nently successful in his practice. He is one of the far-seeing men who believed in Bir- mingham's future and when it was only a village he chose this place for the location of his institution. His expectations have been realized; his institute has been suc- cess, and is credit to the city and Ala t,zcfi trrfa ta pny tah in nice quiet neighborhood, yet only two squares from the postoffice and three from the union depot. It is on the ground floor, there being no stairs to climb. s's
