He took but little interest in the great

Congress of Famous Men Predicts Won

PARIS. Oct. 2.-The recent congress
Of radiologists at Liege, which has just
ended, mas proved the enormous prog
ress which the study of radium has
made since its discovery a few short
years ago and opened a vista of new
possibilities of uses to which it may be
put.
Never in the history Of science has n
discovery aroused more interest than
that of this mysterious clement and
there is hardly a scientist in the world
who is not actively engaged in expert

at the congress therefore looked like

THE CASE OF HIGGINS.
REMINDED TO THE ALABAMA
 FEDERAL COURT.
Constitutionsl Questions Are Not En- tered Into By the supr-me Court, Decision Being Rendered
 on Technical Grounda

Washington, Dec. 11.-(SpecfaL )-- The Supreme Court of the United States today reversed the ruling of the Circuit Court of the United States for the Northern District of Alabama in the case of Thomas R. Higgins, and re- nanded the case to the Alabama Court with directions to quash the writ of habeas corpus sued out by Higgins. and dismiss the petition for such a writ
 This case presented the broad ques- ton of the right of tnc negro to pro- lection against lynching under she Federal Constitution and laws, and thus involved the Jurisdiction of the Federal Courts in such cases. The court did not, however. enter upon these questions. but based its decision upon the technical ground that the proceedings by means of @ writ of ha- beas corpus was irregular.
 Higgins Is white man and was in- dicted by the grand jury for the Cir cult Court for the Northern District of Alabama on the charge of conspiring with others to lynch a negro named Naples at Huntsville, Ala, in Septem- Der. 1904. After being taken into cus- tody. he presented petition to the Circuit Court, praying to be released on writ of habeas corpus. contending that even though the offense charged was mo denial to Naples. a person of African descent by reason of his race of the right. privilege and immunity of trial by jury to determine his guilt or innocence of the charge of murder"
 He broadly challenged the jurisdic- tion of the court, and when his writ was refused. appealed the case to the Supreme Court. The prosecution in the Federal Court was based upon the pro- visions of Sections 550S and 5509 of the Revised Statutes. and involved the con- struction of the Thirteenth and Four teenth Amendments to the Federal Constitution.
 The opinion was by Chief Justice Fuller, who said Higgins should have awaited the final determination of the case. and then proceeded by means of a Writ of error.

ON TECHNICAL GROUNDS.
Constitution Phase of the Higgins Case Not Gone Int.

Not Gone Into.
 From the short press report of the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States in the Higgins case. it ap- pears to have gone off on technical grounds, as to Riggins's right in the present stage of the proceedings to have relief by habeas corpus, without in any way deciding the grave consti- tutional questions it involved, which have excited so much attention and dis- cussion among the legal profession and law periodicals.
 Tho United States grand jury indicted Higgins. white man, for conspiring with other white persons. to take Ma ples, a negro. from the custody of the State authorities, who held him for trial on a charge of murder, and hang ing him to prevent his having the ben- eft of a trial by jury. and that this was done because he was a negro. The indictment also charged Higgins with conspiracy with other persons to pre- vent Naples from enjoying the benefit of the process of law in the State court, when the State held him for trial on an accusation of murder. The first portion of the indictment was based under the Thirteenth Amendment, and the other parts upon the Fourteenth Amendment.
 The contention of the Government was that 1t was an offense under the@ss ThirteenthsAt Amendment and statutes passed to carry 1t into effect, for persons of one race to conspire to deprive person of differ eaual benefits of the laws. It also con tended that under the Fourteenth Amendment a right was secured to ev- cry citizen to enjoy the benefits of judi cial procedure at the hands of the State, when 1t took him into custody to punish him for crime, and that private individ- uals who prevented the State from giving the citizen the benefit of such due process when it was endeavoring to do so, deprived him of the enjoyment of a right secured to him under the Constitution and laws. and thus fell within the influence of Sections 550S and 550s of the Revised Statutes which are directed to the punishment of con spiracies of that sort.
 Higgins. contending that the act charged did not constitute an offence under the Constitution and law. insisted that the court was without Jurisdiction, and therefore sued out writ of habeas corpus The lower court granted the writ. and upon the marshafs return, showing that he lvld Higgins under the indictment, held that the court had Ju- risdiction, as the indictment charged an offense against the laws of the United States, and therefore discharged the writ and remanded Higgins to his cus- tody. Higgins then appealed to the Stu preme Court and the court also certi- fled the question of Jurisdiction.
 From the press reports 1t seems the court declined to pass on the constitu- tional question. or the Jurisdiction of the court. and contented itself by de- ciding that appeal on habeas corpus was ot his remedy. Perhaps Higgins will have to wait a final trial before he can get the case to the Supreme Court. if the case should go against him.
