Heart Failure.

New York.-The Rev. Charles II.

copal church. died at his home here
Friday
Bishop Fowler had been critically
Ill only since Wednesday. His death
Was due to heart failure, resulting from
complication OF diseases. He had
been in Ill health for two years but
during nearly all that time he took
more OF less active part in the AFFAIRS
OF the church. As late as two months
ago he felt able to make journey to
Minneapolis, where he presided At the
dedication of the Fowler Memorial
Methodist Episcopal church. His last
public appearance was at Metropolitan
temple Sunday following Washington
birthday, when he took part in a Wash
lngton memorial service. Wednesday
he was stricken with the illness which
resulted in his death Friday.
Bishop Fowler long life was filled
with activity for the church and the
cause Of education Born in Burford.
Ontario, in 1887, he was graduated
ltom Genesee college, now Syracuse
university, in 1859, and he was the
valedictOrian of his class. He also head
ed his class at Garret Biblical lnsti-
tute and was the first man to receive
the honorary degree Of d. ID. from that
Institution. After completing his edu-
cation he removed to Chicago, where
he studied law. but never practiced
that profession.
Entering the ministry at the conclu-
sion Of his law studies he
served as pastor OF several church
es in Chicago during the next twelve
years and in 1872 was elected presi-
dent OF Northwestern university. lie
remained at the head OF that institu-
tion four years and then became edi-
tor OF the Christian Advocate in New
York. He was made general mission
AIRY secretary of the church in 1880 and
four years later was elected bishop.
Bishop Fowler was pastor of one
OF Chicago's churches at the time Of
the great fire and it was he who sug-
gested that plan of pooling the inter
ests of the different churches until all
should have time 10 rehabiliate them
selves. AS missionary secretary he
organized Peking university in North
China; Nanking university in Central
China; the First Methodist Episcopal
church in St. Petersburg; established
The McClay college of Theology in
southern California and consolidated
the three colleges in Nebraska into the
Nebraska Wesleyan university at Lin
coin
He suggested an inaugurated the
twentieth century thank offering OF his
church, whereby more than 500. .000, 900
was raised for the church. He also
originated the open door emergency
commission, which eventuated in the
great Cleveland convention. at which.
with the bishop presiding, $235, 900 was
raised in a single evening.
He was trustee Of Syracuse universi-
ty, Drew Theological seminary, Medi-
son. New Jersey; American university,
member OF the board Of managers Of
the Methodist Missionary society. the
Church Extension society, and other
Methodist societies.

Federal Authority upheld.

Washington. refusing to grant to
Attorney General Young Of Minnesota
a writ of habeas corpus releasing from
the penalty imposed by the United
States District Court for the district
of Minnesota on charge of contempt
OF court in instituting a proceeding in
a state court for enforcement of the
railroad rate law after the Federal
Court had prohibited such a course,
and in affirming the decision Of Judge
Pritchard Of the United States Circuit
Court for the western district of North
Carolina discharging from imprison.
ment James H. Wood, ticket agent
Of the Southern Railway at Ashevlle,
after he had been sentenced by the
Asheville police court to serve a term
on the rock pile on the charge of col
lecting for ticket on that road a
greater price than was permitted by
the state railroad law. the Supreme
Court Of the United States Monday
added another to the series OF decisions
which have rendered notable the pres
ent term OF that court
In both cases the right of the states
to fix rates for railroad transportation
was the issue. and both involved con-
flicts between the federal and the
state courts. The decision in each
case was opposed both to the states
and to their courts.
The opinion OF the court in both
cases was announced by Justice Peck
ham, and with the exception of Justice
Harlan, all the other members of the
court stood behind him in the an
nouncement of the courts finding.
Justice Harlan read a dissenting
opinion in the Young case, in which he
took the view that the suit was prac-
tically proceeding against the state
and therefore not permissible under
the eleventh amendment to the cOnsti-
tuition. He therefore characterized the
opinion as an era making history of
the country, said 1t had the effect of
closing the courts OF the state against
the state itself and predicted that the
result would be disastrous.
