Denver, May 26.-Judge Carpenter in
the District Court yesterday ruled that
the general appropriation bill. which
was passed by the Fourteenth General
Assembly as house bill No. 433. is lille

injunction against the state treasurer
and other state officers paying out the
moneys for which the bill provides.
The system of blank appropriation
bills is censured in the opinion. Be-
cause the signatures of the speaker OF
tae house and president of the senate
were attached to house bill No. 433 be-
fore 1t was complete, and received the
signature OF the governor in this con-
dition, the bill is held to be invalid.
Appeal will be taken to the Supreme
Court. II this body sustains the action
Of Judge Carpenter it may be necessary
to call an extra session.
Among the points brought out in
his opinion, Judge Carpenter lays
stress on what he believes to be a
vicious precedent. 1T was stated by
the attorney general at the conclusion
tomary to enroll bills passed during
the last hours OF the session after the
adjournment of the General Assembly
and that a decision OF this case ad
verse to the defendants upon this
ground would have the effect of inyali
dating many statutes heretofore sup
posed to be. and acted upon. as valid.
Such being the case" says the Judge.
rs is high time that halt should be
called"
Recapitulating the evidence in the
case and denying that the bill was
signed in regular manner of that
precedent justified the irregularity,
Judge Carpenter concludes
Succeeding assemblies should be
made to understand plainly that the
courts will not lend their sanction to
evasion OF or disobedience to constitu-
tional mandates; that II they would
have their work stand 1t must be fully
completed before the session expires In

BIG MASS MEETING PROTESTS
AGAINST RUSSIAN OUTRAGES

in their gilded carriages and gloated ON
the scene. The outrages were commit
ted for the alleged reason that the
Jews were usurers. The pretense of
the fanatical and violent mob for as
saulting the Jews was that they used
the blood of Christians in the Pass
over.
Have the nations of the world en-
tered into conspiracy to maintain si-
lence in the face of these outrages?"
asked the speaker.
Senator Teller followed. He said, in
part:
Il join heartily in the protest. am
convinced, much against my will, that
1t will require much more than our
protest to prevail against these acts.
II 1t is done effectively it must be done
by universal depreciation by the Amer
lean people of these horrible occur
rences.
Senator Patterson, who followed,
said:
1T is most startling to me that 1900
years after the birth of Him who has
become the light of Christian nations
and preached peace and good will
among men, we should be called upon
to condemn the most atrocious deeds
occurring in 500 years.
Il believe it only remains for the
people of such countries as Great Brit
ain and the United States to make
their detestation of such deeds known
throughout the world to make the pos
sibility of such acts Immediately van
ish."
