AN THE CONSTITUTION BE" Ex-
1>E,NDEJOo,,

IENDEO.i
Among the curious features of debate
is the controversy as TO whether con-
gress can by statute extend the con-
5stitution ove, a given territory, and also
as TO whether, being thus extended, the
may by further statute be
withdrawn. In writing on this subject
Harry Pratt Judson declares in the Re-
view of Reviews for pril that more
grotesque conception can hardly be inn
agined. Saving only by the admission
of new states congress has no more
power to extend the constitution over
2 specific area tiiaii i has /:
circle by legislation or to repeal the law
of gravitaton. The constitution is abb
ssolutelS beyond the Will of congress.
Wherever it is law. it is law irrespective
of congress. Wherever ii is the consti-
tuition it is the organic law: and that is
law Which congress can neither expand
nor contract. In whatever; area it is9not
of Its own force the organic law, no pos
sible action of congress can make ii
suc1. The sole effect of Legislation. pur-
porting to extend the constitution. so
far as ii may be applicable over a
particular territory, is To- take over more
Va lily PiN'NlSlolis COIlsIltu-
ton into the statute, and thus to enact
them in bulk instead of repeating them
i'll detail. Such provisions of the con-
sstitution thereby become law in the
specified territory. not at all in the
rharacterSof constitutional provisions,
but purely. and wholly as statutory pro-
Visions. AS such. undoubtedly congress
may repeal or alter them at will. OF
course statute specifying that certain
provisions OF the constitution are ex-
tended over a given territory has a like
effect. The specified provisions are law.
TO be sure: but they are law as a statute
sef congress. not as parts OF the federal
constitution. For their validity they
rest wholly on congressional enactment.

His Eight Year Sentence Greatly Re-
duccd by Good Behavior.
New York, May samuel G. Seely,
who was convicted on the charge Of
appropriating $4,000 from the Ma
tional Shoe and Leather bank six years
ago, walked out Of Kings county peni-
Tertiary a free man today. For five
years and four months Seely has been
serving the sentence imposed for his
crime. He was sentenced to eight
years, but he has been such a model
prisoner that Communication allowed for
good conduct reduced the term by two
years and eight months. Seely claims
that he will face the world entirely
penniless. He AYERS that he has not a
cent Of the money taken from the bank.
For the first four years OF Seely S
Imprisonment his wife was devoted to
him. She visited him twice a week,
and sought in every way to ameliorate
his punishment. Two years ago, how
ever, she discovered that her husband
had spent a portion of the money he
had taken from the bank on another
woman. This lee to cessation of her
visits, and she at once secured a di-
vorce. Not long since she was mar
ried to John w. Fowler, a wealthy
manufacturer. with whom she now
lives at Seely's old home. Seely's 12-
year-old son lives with her and bears
her maiden name, Bennert He has
never seen his father since the convic-
ton, as it was Seely's own request that
the boy should never see him In con-

WACO's FATAL CLOUDBURSTS.
Eight Persons known to Have Per-
fshed In the City Limits.

Waco, Tex, April 2S-A cloudburst,
accompanied by high wind, descend
ed upon this city at noon yesterday
and the result is that eight persons are
known to have persisted within the city
limits and property valued at several
thousand dollars has been destroyed
or damaged. The known dead are
Mrs. Nancy Caudle, Miss Clara Caudle,
Rosa Chapman, Emma Decker, Thomas
Capps, Frank Walker and two UNI
known negroes.
The business streets were converted
into rivers. Such a food was never
before seen here. The rain resembled
succession of cloudbursts. Easements
were flooded on Franklin and Wash
ington streets and on Austin avenue.
Waco crock, on the south side OF the
city, and Barron branch, on the north
side, poured their surplus water to-
ward the center of the city and form
ed a sea in the business district. At
present the exact number of persons
drowned cannot be ascertained. Mrs.
Nancy Caudle and her daughter, who
resided with Mrs. Norton at the corner
Of Jackson and Seventeenth streets,
are among the dead recovered from the
food. The house was in the Waco
creek overflow and the two ladies, in
spite of Efforts at rescue, were swept
away. Mr.. and Mrs. Horton were
saved Their house was destroyed.
Walker was drowned in the Barron
branch overflow.
Three persons, two women and a
man, all colored, we're drowned within
a hundred yards of the city hall. Their
bodies were washed into the Brasos
river and have not been recovered.
There were several people, mostly ne
groes, standing on bridge watching
the rapid rise Of the Barrons branch
when the bridge, a brick structure,
gave way without warning, precipi-
tating them into the water. The num-
Der positively known to have been
drowned within the city limits is
eight. 1t is almost certain that sew
eral more lives have been lost

CANADA'S GREAT FIRE.
Ottawa and Hull Flame Swept and
SIX Lives Lost.

SIX Lives Lost.
Ottawa, Ont, April 28.-Over five
square miles of territory burned over,
more than 1000 buildings destroyed,
seven lives lost, 1000 men, women and
children homeless and property loss
of SIT 900, according to the latest
estimate, insured for half its value, are
the results of the destructive fire which
swept this city and Hull Thursday and
yesterday. Although under control for
many hours the flames were not en-
tirely extinguished until yesterday.
The fire, which started in Hull,
across the river from Ottawa, at IL
O'Clock Thursday forenoon, was not
under control until midnight Mean
time sparks which flew across the river
started fires in Ottawa in the early af-
ternoOn, and for hours the citizens OF
both towns we're fighting flames. A
large cliff which extends from the OF
tawa river back to Christ church and
the Church Of st. John the Baptist was
the only thing that prevented the
whole city of Ottawa becoming prey
to the flames.

ments for the reception and distribu-
ton of supplies. The list of dead now
shows six victims. Two unidentified

IIVI1Y OF THE BOERS
oroe Between Fourteen Streams
and Kimberley.
L HOLDING THE HILLS,

While Behind Them Arc Long Wagon
Trains Moving with Supplies to the
Bocr Army In the Ncrth-Wcpcner
Ii Now Deserted.
London, May 1.-The Beers are now
showing uncommon activity west Oh
Bloemfontein. They are in force be-
tween Fourteen Streams and klmDer-
ley. On Sunday they occupied Wind
sorton. west Of the railway, and now
threaten to interrupt the communica-
lions OF the British force at Warren
ton. to the north. This. 100, at time
when Gen. Hunter is about to start on
a 200 mile march to Mafeking, prob
ably with 5000 men.
To the east Of Bloemfontein the
Beers Sunday night were still hold
ing the hills near Thaba NChu, while
behind them long wagon trains, load
ed with wheat for the Boer army In the
north, are moving through Ladybrand.
The British captured one Boer con-
voy on Saturday, but its size is not
mentioned in the dispatch, which
barely announces the fact.
Wepener, lately the scene OF inces-
SAINT fighting, is deserted, Gen. Bra
bant and Col. Dalgety having moved
northward.
A dispatch from Maseru, dated Mon
day. says: The BasutOs are second
time astounded to see the Beers
peacefully retiring with herds which
the native think should be the booty
of the British, who are said to be the
conquerors.'
According to information from
Maseru, the main body of the Beers
reached Leeuw river, due west OF Lady
brand. Sunday, small parties trailing
behind at intervals of ten miles to pro-
tect the rear and whip up the herds.
Slight outpost actions take place
daily beyond Karee Siding, where the
head of the British invasion is can
toned.
African horse sickness has broken
out in Gen. Buffers army. 1t proves
especially fatal among freshly arrived
animals. The Bloemfontein CORE
spondents point out that the defcien-
cies in the veterinary department
cause thousands of losses.
Gen. Lucas Meyer, replying to Gen.
Buffers complaint that some OF the
British prisoners at Pretoria are lodg-
ed in the town Jail, says that only
those are so treated whe have tried,
or who are suspected of trying to Sc
cape. He reports, however, that Boer
prisoners are confined in the town jail
at Pietermarltzburg with natives.
The morning papers give special
prominence to the statement OF news
agency that Sir Redvers Butler sent his
resignation to Lord Roberts after the
Spion Kop censures were published,
and that Lord Roberts declined to ac-
cept 1t.
The war specials today consist
chiefly of detached scraps. the favor
lite introduction of the military COM
mentators and editorial writer's being
that, as only scant news has been
wired, something big is probably about
to happen.
The Daily Chronicles expert says:
"If solid victory Is to be attained,
the British must have different lead
ership from what has been displayed
in the De Vets Dorp operations"

urs Wilson'S Tragic Death.

Havana, April 30.-The wife of Maj.
Gen. James H. Wilson, military COVER
nor of the department of Matanzas-
Santa Clara, died Saturday afternoon
from the effects of brrns accidentally
received in the morning while driv-
ing with her daughter. While alight-
ing from her carriage Mrs. Wilson
stepped on a match, which ignited her
dress. Her hands were so badly
swollen before her death that 1t was
found necessary to cut the rings from
her fingers in order to give her relief.
The daughter and coachman were also
burned, though not seriously, while
endeavoring to extinguish the flames.
