New York State Court of Ap-
peals Holds the Law Is Not
Constitutional
MANY DECISIONS ON THE LAW
Latest Decision, However, Was First
Time Court Of Appeals Had Made a
Ruling On the Clause Relating to
Eight Hours For All Labor For
State and Cities.

Albany, N. Y, Nov. 30.-In a deci-
sion yesterday the New York state
court Of appeals declared unconstitu-
tional the labor law which prohibits a
contractor from employing his men
more than eight hours Il day on city,
county or state work. Since Its enact
ment in 1897 this statute has been al
most continually before the courts.
Other phases have been passed upon,
bur this is the first time the court Of
appeals has expressed it's Views fatty
on the eight hour provision.
The decision was in an action
brought by Harry Cossey to compel
payment by the city OF New York OF
$2S.215 for six scows manufactured for
the street cleaning department. Pay
ment was refused on the ground that
he had violated the terms Of his con-
tract in employing men over eight
hours day.
Judges O'Brien, Martin, and Vann
hold the law is unconstitutional in that
1t deprives an Individual of property
without due process of law. CHIEF
Judge Cullen, with Judge Werner con-
CURING makes the decision one OF pre-
cedent. Judge Haight alone dissent
ed.
Chief Judge Cullen takes the ground
that the principle involved In this case
Is precisely similar to that in the ac-
ton Of the people ex rel. Rogers VS..
Coler. The latter was the earliest case
that arose under the labor law, and In
deciding the courts held that the stat
ute was unconstitutional in so far as
it involves the prevailing rate of wag-
es.'
Judge Cullen says comparing the two
cases:
This difference in circumstances
would not justify distinction in prin-
ciple and therefore the decision In the
Rogers case must control the DISPOSE
ton of the present case, unless the
Rogers case has been overthroWn by
subsequent cases in this court, or In
the supreme court Of the United Stat
es."
In his conclusion the chief Judge
says:
IT fear that the many outrages or
labor organizations, or of some OF their
members. have not only excitea JUST
Indignation. but at times have fright
eped courts into plain legal inconslst-
encies and into the enunciation OF doc
trlnes which. IL asserted In lihgations
arising under any other subject than
labor legislation, would meet scanty
courtesy or consideration"

Chicago Man Socks to Cross Lake IL
~ Oueer Craft

Chicago Man Socks to Cross Lake in
Queer Craft.
Chicago, Nov. 30.--In Fool Killer
No. g." an immense pneumatic ball,
Peder Nissen turned himself adrift on
the lake yesterday and waited for the
wind to bowl him across to the Michi-
gan shore. When last seen by large
group of friends standing on the
shore at Illinois street he was a spot
on the horizon, the windbag floating
on the waves instead Of rolling over
their crests as the inventor imagined
1T would At 1 o'clock this morning
Nissens friends had heard nothing
from him, and. owing to the high wind
were becoming alarmed for his safety.
The start was made early In the af-
ternoon from Illinois street and a
breeze of thirty knots led Nissen to
calculate that 1t would take him about
four hours to cross the lake. The oval
ball was made ready without the diff
Guilty experienced in former tests. and
after depositing a heavy lunch Dag
two oyercoats and life preserver on
the swinging seat inside, the expert
menter let himself into the canvas
shell.
"In four hours I'll be across and Will
telegraph you as soon as I get to
city," he shouted, joyfully, as his head
disappeared.
The windball was towed out into the
lake a few yards and the oystanders
then waited for developments Mis-
sen had calculated that the bag would
roll and he would keep 1t In perfect
balance by posing himself on the seat
that swung from crossbar inside.
The first gust, however, keeled the ball
almost on it's beam ends until 1T look
ed like an upright egg.
"Tll bet that made him seasick,"
ventured a spectator.
"If he does that many times he'll
lose his bearings and his compass VIII
60 wrong" added another.
The ball got into balance again, how
ever. and the wind floated 1T slowly
over the water. AS it veered out or
the protection Of the shore line. the
ball drifted into the range of brisk
err breeze, and f1oated rapidly for
mile or more until it was lost to sight.

ALI the Strength of the Market
Was Conferred on the Better
Grades
PRICES NOT MUCH CHANGED
There Was a Fair Number of Good
Sorts Which Was Disposed Of at
Steady Prices - Receipts Of Hogs
Were Heavy and Packers Forced
Prices Lower.

Chicago, Nov. 30.--All the strength
of today's cattle market was centered
In the demand for choice beeves to the
exclusion OF all other grades There
was fair sprinkling Of good sorts and
there were disposed of at prices fully
as good as any time this year.
Tuesdays run contained few good to
choice steers. and none of class
which would land very near 81, tho
there was fair proportion OF offerings
sold at $5.75@6.15 while sales above
$3.50 were of moderate volume for
a Tuesday. Cattle of value under S.
met slow demand, as was the case
Monday, these being In too liberal sup
ply on both days, consumptive outlet
for such grades being still ciogged and
plain and light steers which went UNI
der $3.50 were extremely slow sellers.
publications favored liberal run of
cattle for today said a trader, but
only moderate receipts are needed this
week, and any very heavy offerings
will have to sell lower. The trade Is
assuming a quite satisfactory state and
country shippers should not send In a
big run merely because OF an oppor-
tunity to see the international show
and return on free transportation
Hogs.
With a tremendous run shippers
have only light orders, and speculative
buying almost suspended, the sit
uation was one which commended itself
to packers and buyers, who Immediate
ly took advantage to get their droves
at SOLO lower than yesterdays best.
Receipts of hogs Tuesday were es-
timated little larger than a week
up $4,000 the two days receipts so
far showed an increase of 10000 over
the corresponding two days last week
and $4,000 over year ago.
Shipments Monday were unusually
large, being 10000. 1t was this liberal
increase in eastern shipping orders
that made Mondays market rule
stronger late than early.
Yesterdays hog trade, however, was
literally enough supplied and the ship
ping demand was small enough SO
that packers refused to pay steady
prices, and started in to make lower
bids. Spectators, shippers and city
butchers filled some early orders at
prices about steady. but the tendency
of the late trade was weak and lower.
Sheep.
Fairly steady and strong in spots.
While trade was not very active 1t was
sufficiently animated to clean up Of
ferings early Demand for lambs was
only fair, but prices steady.
