The decision. of Judge Lochren in the
case of the imprisoned Puerto Rican,
Ortiz, is not unlikely to have a strong
influence in the inal determination of the
great constitutional question as to
whether the constitution of the United
prio vigore to the island on its acquisi-
ton by this people.
While the decision is adverse TO the
contention of Ortiz's counsel that he was
entitled to the constitutional privilege of
a trial by jury, the ground upon which
the court places its decision does not,
in any sense, negative the contention of
those who believe that from the ratifca-
ton of the treaty of peace with Spain the
island of Puerto Rico became an Integral
part of the United States and its people
invested with the rights ana immunites
guaranteed by the constitution TO the
residents of an American territory. On
the contrary, the essential principle is
maintained by the court that the col.-
stitution did extend to the ISLAND con-
currently with the ratification of the
treaty
The judgment of the court in ills re-
gard is no more dictum The essential
question involved in Judge Wills APP
plication was the one whether or not the
constitution did extend to the island On
the ratification If he treaty This ques,
ton the court decides -atiirmatively; and
while the application for a writ of habeas
corpus is denied. the contention of the
court that military law was in operation

the treaty and its ratification by tie

a judicial determination of Judge Loon.

In any review by the appellate courts
that is made Of the decision in this case,
it is certain that the original question

Lochren's principal conclusion will be
either affirmed or denied by the federal
court of appeals and by the supreme
court
The national administration has resort
ed to all manner of subterfuge in the
Jorges case TO escape a decision upon the
question as to whether 4 person coming
from Puerto Rico TO New York was sub
ject to the laws and regulations govern
ing immigrants from foreign territories.
The effort will also, no doubt, be made
in this case to avoid any decision on this
question. But The supreme court will be
confronted. sooner or later, with the inn
perative obligation TO make adjudication
upon the question and the administra-
ton will be bound by that adjudication
should it be adverse to the imperial

packages of game or birds when shipped

missed death by mere chance early last
evening, in an accident at the eastern an-
proach of the University avenue bridge
at the transfer. Ostrander is a delivery
wagon driver, and in crossing the inter
III ban tracks his rig was struck by west
bound car.
He was thrown from his seat, narrowly
escaping the wheels of the heavy car.
He was picked up somewhat dazed, bu- in
a few minutes recovered his senses and
was able to drive TO his home IN another
wagon. The rig which was struck belong
ed to the Model laundry, and was badly
wrecked.
The driver claims that the car had suf-
icient time to slow UP and allow him to
pass. The motorrnan on the interurban,
however, asserts that Ostrander suddenly
drove across the track In front of the
car, and that there was no time to stop
before striking the wagon.

The vast Importance which has been as

THEY DIE HARD.

The Republican politician and office
holder dies hard. Nor is he much of a
philosopher He has shown himself un-
able TO accept the DEGREES Of fate with
either grace or patience. He belittles the
victory won over him, derides those who
won it, and strains his lachyrmose glands
in his assumed grief over the awful ca
lan2ity that has fallen, not on him, but
on the community to whose well-being he
was so vitality needful
And yet The latest Expressions of the
lengths to which he felt called on to go
in order to save his official bacon are
not all such as might suggest themselves
to man who was struggling against an

but others The scenes in the police
court, for instance, which have been
enacted within a day or two, show that
the Republican politician and ofiiceholder
holds in slight regard his oath of office

fellow men when they appear to stand in

TEST SMOKE EXHAUSTER
FIRE OFFICIALS GIVE NEW PAT
ENT PUBLIC TRIAL.

A public test was given yesterday of
F. E. Kenney's patent smoke exhauster.
The machine, which is similar to a blower
used in saw mills, consists of a fan
operated by water motor, which draws
the smoke in burning building to the
basement and thus allows the firemen to
readily locate the fire.
The test was witnessed by number of
fire department officials and insurance
men. A room in the basement of the
building at Fifth and Washington streets
was used for the test, ard smoke from
a smudge was cleared from the room in
four minutes
The patentee says the exhausters can be
built for $1,000 each. and will ask the fire
board to purchase two for use of the de-
partment. The test was a success
