4 OBSTRUCTIVE F|KE
BUSINESS PORTION OF CITY
SWEPT BY FLAMES,

Sunday morning our town was
visited by the most destructive
fire within its history. About 3
O'Clock policemen discovered the
FIRE in the store of Mr.. J. L. Saw
yer and Immediately turned in
AL alarm, which was quickly re-
sponded to by our efficient De-
partment. The store house was
a double one, one section fronts
ing Main street and the other
section Water street. The fire
was burning about the stove,
which was used for the comfort
of the ladies in the Millinery de-
partment in the angle of the
building. When the doors were
opened, it is SAID tnau ute~Gaules

Thinks She Should Come to Kansas
and Retrieve Fortune.

Wichita, kan, May 27.-"It comes as
surprise to me that my wife has made
application for bankruptcy" said Chas.

to the courts of New York to be declared
a bankrupt However, I will say that
I have heard through the children that
she was not doing so we'll with her lee
turing and writing as she used to here
in Wichita. I have also heard that the
main reason she did not prosecute her
divorce suit against me was because Of
her inability to pay the costs. 1t is I'M
necessary for her to live in New York
but of course she does not care to live
in a place so small as Wichita I think
her talents have not been properly
recognized by the eastern people She
had better come back to Kansas and re-
liexe her fallen fortunes
Mr.. Lease is the owner of drug store,
and is said to be worth about SO 600. He
sends money to his children in New

all his money that educated Louise, and
not her mothers, as has been frequently
stated.

RIGHTS OF TERRITORIES.
The Downs Case Regarded as the
Most Important of All

washington, May 27-The United
States supreme court today handed
down opinions covering all of
the issues on the new insu1ar possessions
which have been in controversy. Al
though several of the decisions upheld
the contestants on certain issues raised,
yet in the most important decision, that
of DoWneS against BidWeH Justice
Brown announced the sweeping decision
Of the court unfolding the general at
titude and policy of the government up
to the present time. The effect of this
decision is to affirm the constitutionality
of the Foraker act and to give congress
power to deal with a newly acquired ter
ritory in such manner as the legislative
branch may consider suitable for the
new territory. The decision also has the
effect of declaring that the new insular
possession do not by virtue of the treaty
of cession acquire all the privileges and
rights of the constitution
Justice Brown announced the decision
Of the court in the case Of Armstrong vs..
the United States covering the shipment
of goods to Porto Rico. This case, the
court said, was similar to the Dooley
case. While duties prior to the treaty
were proper those subsequent to the
treaty were not. The judgment of the
circuit court was reversed
Justice White announced the dissent of
Justices Gray, Shiras, Mckenna and him
Justice Brown next announced the opin-
ion in the case Of DowneS VS.. BidWell, re-
lating to a shipment of oranges from Por-
to Rico to New York after the enactment
of the Foraker act The objections to the
lower courts jurisdiction We're overruled.
Justice Brown then proceeded to show
the difference Of the question in this case
from that involved in the first case de-
cided this difference being based on time
and the course taken by the executive
and legislative branches of the govern
nent He said there was considerable
divergence in the opinoin of the court in
the past and too much weight should not
be given to particular phases Of past de-
cisiOns such as that referring to the
might refer to the supreme authority of
congress under the constitution After
analyzinz the case Of Loughborough VS..
Black the Justice summed uD the condi-
lions under which territories We're not in
the same positions as states.
