The London Daily News which
comments upon the decision of
the United States supreme court
in the insular cases as perhaps
the most momentous which this
tribunal was ever called upon to
make, regards them as a curious
issue to 12O years of triumphant
democracy and says:
''1t is not progress but retro
gression; not the advancement
of humanity, but that dishearten-
ing product of our times, the
militarism of democracy. We
venture to think that the trainers
of the United States constitution
would have laughed at the posi-
bility of such a development as
incredible. The decisions have
extricated President Mckinley
from an uncommonly awkward
position, but it is a lamentable
headlong fall in the moral scale
and turning of the back on all
that has been the special glory of
the United States in order to join
in the barbaric scramble for the
waste places of the earth"

the supreme court will sustain
the biennial election law all the
way through. If the supreme
court does anything else but sus-

A BITTER FIGHT.
DIR. j, NJ Williamson's Heirs object
TO Executor BUyd's Action,

1t looks now as II the estate of the
late DR.. jonathan Williamson viii be d
bone OF bitter contention before final
settlement Is agreed upon, The doctor
bequeathed life estate In certain Of
his real property to his wife, Sarah
Carmichael Williams, the poelcss, who
died recently. BY the will the residue
OF the estate was to pass to certain
other legatees on Mrs. Williams death.
j, X, Walker, ST., and Boyd Park were
the executors, and since Mr.. Walkers
death about year ago, the duties have
devolved upon Mr. Park Since the
doctors death In 1883 $4,000 worth of
real estate has been sold for the main
tenance of his widow, and Mi. Park
recently obtained an order Of the court
to sell the homestead at the northwest
corner of State and Fifth South streets,
A sale was made to Henry Phipps a
Pittsburg capitalist. for $4,000 but nine
of the heirs objecting that the property
was worth much more than the price
offered by Phipps the court did not
cohnfm the sale. Executor Park esti-
mates that the claims against the us-
tate VIII aggregate 5000. The heirs
hold that as the widow had only hfe
interest Mr., Park must be personally
held responsible for money he advanced
to her. The case was to have come up
Tor hearing yesterday on supplement-
al statement Of the executor, but the
tbjoctors not being ready TO proceed,
the case was reset for Feb. 3, The
charges against the estate include an
overdraft for 81, O6 on Walkers bank.
The attorneys for the heirs, Shepard
& Shepard, threaten to bring suit In the
United States court to have set aside
the sale some years ago of two pieces
of property, on the ground that the
heirs were given no notice Of the sale,
aud further that the executor had
no right to sell property in which the
widow had merely life interest.
