STATUS OF NEW POSSESSIONS
Continued From First Page

President Harrison's address at Ann
Arbor and the response made thereto in
behalf of the administration.
The reference to ex-President Harri-
sons Ann Arbor address is preceded
by a statement Of the government s
position with reference to the extent to
which the constitution applies to newly
acquired territory. The brief denies
the doctrine of Elk proprio avigore and
that all the limitations of the consti-
tuition apply everywhere throughout the
scope Of the authority Of the govern
ment, but says there are limitations in
the constitution which do apply
throughout both states and territories
organized and unorganized. Because
some limitations apply 1t does not fol-
low that all apply. Those who do ap-
ply everywhere both within and with
out the United States in It's broadcast
sense, 1t says, are those securing the
blessings of Justice and liberty to all the
people. Tyranny and oppression cannot
exist under the sovereignty of the re-
public, whose founders declared that all
men are entitled to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness.

Opposiiton,s Argument.

| Washington, JAM 7.--Ex-Secretary
| Carlisle, who appears as leading coun-
sci against the government in the
| Porto Rican customs cases, the argu-
ment in which will begin in the United
| States supreme court tomorrow, will
| not file an individual brief, but will con-
| tent himself with the verbal presenta-
| ton of his views. His name, however,
| appears as of counsel in the brief in
the Dooley cases involving the right to
assess duties on articles brought into
Porto Rico from "other parts Of the
United States and also sent from
Porto Rico Into other parts Of the
United States before and after the
Paris treaty Of peace and also after
congress passed the Porto Rican act.
Henry M. Ward filed these briefs in
the supreme court to-day. Following is
a summary of the argument:
First-At all times since the ratifica-
part of the United States
Second-As a consequence of the
treaty entire sovereignty over Porto
Rico has become vested in the United
States, but the executive and legisla-
tive departments of the federal govern
fent have only such power In relation
to Porto Rico as Is granted to them by
the constitution.
Third-The president had not the
power under the constitution to make
or enforce the order Of January 20, 1899,
in so far as it imposed duties upon ar
ticles of merchandise brought into Por-
10 ~ - Tr,,J+ oI
States.
Fourth-Congress had not the power
under the constitution to impose the
taxes or duties imposed by the act Of
April IL, 10000, upon articles of mer-
chandise brought into Porto Rico from
other parts of the United States or into
other parts of the United States from
Porto Rico
In sustaining these points no time is
spent in discussing the power of the
United States to acquire and hold out
side territory, that power having be-
come firmly established In support of
the first point it is contended that by
the operation of the Paris treaty Porto
Rico has become as much part of the
United States as any one of the organ
lied states or territories
The second point is elaborated. The
argument holds that by sovereignty is
meant not that of the government Of
the president or of congress, but of the
people Consequently because Spain
has yielded her sovereignty congress
has not unlimited sovereign powers.
Congress has no powers whatsoever,
derived from any other source than the
constitution.
On the question Of the lawful power
of the president in connection with the
order of January 20, 1899, the argument
is also elaborate. The contention is
that If this duty was lawfully imposed
even by the president or commander
in-chief of the army there Is no limit to
military power. The conclu-
sion drawn from this and other points
Is that "the existence of any such
power in one man however exalted his
office is opposed to the whole spirit of
our institutions"
On the fourth point the conclusion Is
drawn by argument that the taxes are
not imposts or customs duties, but In
The nature of internal revenue duties or
excuses.

TREASURER'S REPORT, JANUARY
3, 1901.
Early in the year we decided we
should redeem our outstanding bonds
bearing 6 per cent, interest. This has
been accomplished. We called in the
$2,500,O00 issued August 8, 1890, about
May for payment July l, and interest
ceased upon the latter day. OF course,
a concern like ours does not add to it's
business by simply redeeming its Sc
curities; and, having arranged to pay
our old bonds. made ready to issue some
new bonds at a lower rate of interest,
/. e., per cent. per annum, the issue
to be for $5,000,000, payable in fourteen
years. but redeemable after ten years.
We calculated these transactions would
result in quite a saving of interest to
the company, and believe the authority
granted the directors for this purpose
was well placed.
Our balance sheet shows at the end
of the fiscal year, September 20, 1900, a
surplus of $2,446, 0o5.05, against $685.
3S2.97 the year before. Besides this we
paid you in four quarterly dividends of

KERR MAKES A PLEA OF NON-VULT
IN The PATERSON MURDER CASE

Paterson, y. j., Jan. 2S.-George J..
Kerr. who was jointly indicted with
McAlister, Campbell and Death ON a
charge of rape and murder in the hrst
degree. in connection with the death
of Jennie BOsschieter was Unexpected
~ brought into court today before
Judge Dixon, when he pleaded non
VUlt to the charge of rape.
John NJ. Harding, counsel for the
prisoner. addressed the court, and said
that Kerr was not present when the
Knockout drops were administered to
Jennie BOsschieter. and neither diO he
assault the girl when she was taken
from the carriage on the Rock road.
The attorney said that he hoped that
the prosecutor would take this into
consideration and accept a plea Of non
Vult-
Public Prosecutor Emley said that
while he had made every preparation
to place Kerr on trial on the indict-
ment found against him, he felt in
Clined TO accept the plea of nOn-vult
in view of the statements made by the
lawyer as &c KeTr's connection with
the girls death, which seemed to be
corroborated by the general facts Of
the case. Kerr was then remanded fOc
sentence. He can receive a punish
ment Of fifteen years.
Campbel's sister is si-culating a pc
tition which viii be presented to Judge
Dixon asking for CiemenUy for her
brother.
That the provision kings estate fell be-
low the popular estimate that had been
put on it, is explained by the assertion
that when his health began to fail, fol
lowing the Letter wheat deal. Mr. Ar
mour divided $1,000. 600 between his
sons Philip y. and J. ogden. thus re-
lieving himself of .considerabl respou-
sibiHty and saving the estate the pay

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1901-01-29

Prosecutor Finley announced today
that he would have MCAHster. Kerr,
Campbell and Death arraigned in court
tomorrow and would move that SEN
tenCe be pronounced at once
1t is the general opinion here that all
the prisoners except Kerr viii receive
the extreme penalty for murder in the
second degree, of which they were con-
victed. The full penalty is thirty years
Imprisonment at hard labor. 1t is also
believed that Kerr viii be sentenced to
the full penalty of the law on the
charge TO which he has pleaded non
Vult which is fifteen years imprisOn-
ment at hard labor
Kerr's plea of non vult cOntendere
to the charge of rape has the same ef-
feet as a plea of guilty, although tech
nically il is not an admission of the
crime. In effect it is an announcement
that no defense would have been Of
fered on trial. In view of the accept
ance of this plea on the charge of rape,
Kerr viii not be called upon to answer
the indictment accusing him of muir
der.
Judge Dixon. after Prosecutor Emley
had accepted the plea of non vult re-
ferred to the trial of McAhsteT, Death
and Campbell, and said that if he had
been on the jury that tried them he
would have found a verdict of murder
in the first degree. Judge Dixon said
that as far as Kerr was concerned, the
prosecutor had no evidence by which
he could connect him with the drug
ging of Jennie Bosschieter. COnse-
quently the charge of murder was
eliminated from the indictment. The
Judge said that Sculthorpe, the hack
man, was guilty with the others. but
that he had come forward and told a
true story of what had occurred on
the night of the murder. On account
of this action the prosecutor had very
properly decided not to prosecute him.
