THE BLACK LIST
Law is VOID
svpRsMa COURT KILLS MEAS.
uRE THAT PROTECTS ALL
UNION LABOR.
Decides Congress Exec sdsd lts Pow
ers. Employers Have the Right to
Discharge Employees for Any and
all Reasons.

Washington, Jan. 2s.-The consti-
nationality of the act Of congress OF
June I, 1898, prohibiting railway COM
psnies doing Interstate commerce
from discriminating against members
of labor organizations in the matter
OF employment was called into ques-
ton by the case of William Adair
versus the United States, which was
decided by the supreme court of the
United States favorable to Adair.
The opinion was by Justice Harlan,
and held the law to be repugnant to
the constitution.
The court held that Adair, as mas
ter mechanic Of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad company, had a
right to discharge an employee be-
cause he was member of labor
organization, just as it was the en-
ploye's right to quit such employ
ment because of his membership in
such organization. Such a course,
the decision added, might be unwise,
but, regarded as q mere matter Of
right, there could be no doubt. Con-
gress could not, under the Constitu-
don, authorize a violation OF con-
tracts under the guise Of protecting
Interstate commerce.
Justice McKenna delivered q dis
senting opinion favorable to the law,
In which he said the courts decision
proceeds along very narrow lines.
The case came to the supreme court
on writ Of error from the United
States district court for the Eastern
district Of Kentucky.

CARDINAL RICHARD DIES
ARCHBISHOP OF PARIS, FRANCE
PASSES AWAY.
End Comes After Short Illnsss-Pope
Plus Pays Tribute to Hls
Memory.

Paris, Jan. 29.-Francois Marie Ben.
jamin Richard, cardinal and arch
bishop OF Paris, died here Tuesday of
congestion Of the lungs after short
illness. Cardinal Richard was born
at Nantes, March 1, 1919, and was
made cardinal in 1889. The body of
the late cardinal, following the old
custom, will be exposed to the view Of
the public at the archbishopric
Wednesday. The funeral services
will take place at the Notre Dame
cathedral Saturday. A message of
coincidence from President Fallieres
has been received at the archbish-
opric
Rome, Jan. 29-Although he had
been informed that the end was COM
ing, the news of the death in Paris
of Cardinal Richard deeply affected
Pope Plus. He knelt in prayer for a
few moments and when he arose he
exclaimed: HE was not even allowed
to close his eyes in his own house"
This was an allusion to the fact that
in 1906, at the height OF the church
separation troubles in France, Car
dinal Richard was ordered by the
French authorities to vacate the arch
episcopal palace in Paris.

JAP SETTLEMENT is NEAR
EMIGRATION PROBLEM TO BE
SOLVED, SAYS MINISTER.
Viscount Hayashl Declares Arrange.
nent Will Be Satisfactory to
America.

Tokyo, Jan. 29.-Replying to inter.
pellations in the lower house of the
diet Tuesday evening, Foreign Minis.
ter Viscount Hayashi spoke at length
on the foreign policy of the govern
ment, including the negotiations with
America and Canada.
He announced that the Canadian
/ question had been definitely settled,
and read the correspondence with
Rodolphe Lemieux, the Canadian min.
lister of labor, wherein Japan has
agreed to restrict emigration to Can.
ada within reasonable limits. He
said that memorandum attached
thereto defined what was considered
/ reasonable limits, but insisted that
Japan had not conceded any of her
treaty rights nor had her prestige suf-
fered. He said that the negotiations
| with America were continuing and he
| was unable to give any details, but
| was able to announce that satisfac-
tory settlement was within sight.
Viscount Hayashi said further that
certain negotiations with China were
unsettled, pertaining to the Simmin-
tun-Fakuoin railroad, regarding which
a protest had been presented to China.
Regarding the Kantao boundary dis
pute in Korea he said that Japan &C.
cupied the position of arbitrator, and
would decide according to the merits
OF the evidence.
Viscount Hayashi, continuing, said it
was the duty of the central govern
ment to conserve the interests Of Jap
anese subjects resident in other coun-
tries by preventing further exodus
OF their countrymen which might be
prejudicial to those already residing
abroad, and the restrictions therefore
would be extremely rigid.
One speaker in reply said If China
refused to listen to reason Japan
should send a military force and com.
pei her to do so
Viscount Hayashi laughingly turned
the tables upon the speaker by asking
him If he would guarantee the result
of the expedition. Good humored
throughout Viscount Hayashi raised
considerable laughter by his ready re-
sponses to the opposition, which did
not develop any special antagonism
to the governments policy concerning
emigration.
