IMPORTANT DECISION.
Rendered by Federal Circuit Court In
Disponsary Law Case.

Richmond, Va, Sept. discovering
every phase Of the South Carolina dis.
pensary oese in an exhaustive opinion
which deals with the broad question
of states rights, the United States
circuit court Of appeals handed down
an opinion fully sustaining Circuit
Judge Pritchard in the appointment
of receivers to wind UP the affairs OF
the liquor monopoly long maintained
by the Palmetto commenwealth.
There was no dissenting opinion;
Chief Justice Melville w. Fuller and
Judge Edmund Waddiil, Jr., sustain.
ing the law as propounded by Judge
Boyd. AS counsel for the state Mr.
M. w. Stevenson of Bennettsville, 8.
c., asked for a stay of judgment in
order to prepare an appeal. He want.
ed sixty days, though the court agreed
that the documents could be prepared
and filled within forty days, that much
time being allowed.
The decision is matter of para
mount importance in South Carolina
where the dispensary law has long
been the object of attack. It's failure
to serve as temperance measure
along with charges of graft, caused 9
revulsion of feeling, which resulted
in the passage of law to abolish il
as state institution. at the same time
permitting towns and counties to de
eide by popular vote whether or moi
they desire to retain it under local OF
county management.

Especial to The Free Press.1


Toxic, Sept. l6-Drawn up in bat
tie array, their big guns in instant
readiness to belch forth death ant
destruction, the warships of Japan
will assemble just month from to-
day to welcome the American fleet
As the great vessels floating the Stars
and Stripes steam into Yokohoma har.
Dor the following day, every ship in
the long battle-line of Nippon's navy
will boom forth thunderous sulute
But no shells will shrek across the
water, and the booming of japanese
guns will carry a message of friend
ship instead of marking the unleash
ing of the dogs of war.
Officials of the japanese navy de-
partments declare that the spectacle
of the mighty fleet from the west
being welcomed by the greatest fleet
ever assembled in the east will be the
most remarkable naval display, in
time of peace, that the world has
ever known.
All of the ships of the japanese
navy are now gathering at the various
stations for maneuvers, the most Ella
borate and intricate ever undertaken
in the orient, and the welcome to
the American feet will come as the
climax of the months naval activities.
Practically all of the important YES
sells in the mikado's navy will take
part in the maneuvers and the subse-
quent welcome to the American fleet.

1ican nominations for congress Taw-
ney had the closest shave of the three,
but it looks as If he carried the dis
trict by $500. He claims to have
carried all the counties in the district
except Dodge, Houston and Freeborn.
C. r. Miller's victory over Congress-
man Adam Bede is overwhelming. Re.
turns from all over the district show
the same results, Miller carrying
probably every county.
Tawney had close run in the First
district. T. V. knatvold of Albert Lea
is leading in many precincts and car
ried Freeborn, his own county, by a
good majority. But Tawney's major.
ity in Winona is larger in proportion,
and he appears to be well in the lead
In other counties. The returns indi-
cate Tawney's nomination By a fair
majority.
McCleary has the Second district
safe He says he has carried eight
of the eleven counties in the district
and expects to get more votes than
his two opponents together

Opposition All at Sea.
The governors denomination fol-
lowed the utter failure of a desperate
struggle on the part of number of
the county leaders to discover a candi.
date upon whom they could unite to
defeat him. The balance of the ticket
was made up in the good old fash
toned way" as an organization
"slate"
1t was the 1873 votes of all but one
district in New York county that car
ried the governors total beyond the
505, majority of the convention, re-
guired to nominate.
The nine votes of Nassau county
had brought the Hughes total to 395.
Amid breathless hush, in which was
incarnate all the intensity of bitter
ness and suspense which up to that
moment had characterized the strug-
gle to prevent the denomination of
Hughes, the secretary of the conven-
ton called New York"
Herbert Parsons, president of the
New York county Republican general
committee, rose in his place, his slen-
der figure alert and tense with the
excitement of the crucial moment, and
said:
New York county, Second assem-
bly, district, gives for Wadsworth,
the balance of the county, 1873, for
Charles Evans Hughes"
This brought the Hughes total to
TS. Every person in the great hall
knew that the great battle was over,
and the place was instantly bedlam
Of cheering.
sienaIized Stampede to Hughes.
It was really the earlier action of
Kings that signalized what might be
called the stampede to Hughes, and
when it's 1873 votes were cast in 2
block for the governor any remaining
doubt of his nomination was swept
away.

Was at Office Bright and Early
This Morning Ready to
Do Business.
Judge Pau Has the Matter Of
Issuing Writ Of Certiorari
In Charge.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
C. o. Daley applied to the supreme
court yesterday afternoon for a writ
of certiorari OH behalf of his client
NJ. B. Haynes. He was told that for
three years past the court has not
gone into these matters unless coming
from the district court. So many cases
were formerly brought that it made
too much work for the court The
district and supreme courts both have
jurisdiction, and the supreme court
now has a rule that it will not hear
this kind of business except upon APP
peal.
Mr.. Daley then returned to Man
kato and made application to Judge
Pau for writ, which was taken
under consideration. Mr.. Daley
holds that the granting of the writ
retains the engineer in office, aud that
he will continue to perform his duties
until the action of the council has been
confirmed by the courts.
City Attorney Schmitt takes diff
ferent view of the matter, and made
the statement that in case Mr.. Haynes
took possession of his office today GUS
ter proceedings would be started
against him.
Judge Pau has the matter of grant
ing writ of certiorari under -consid-
Grafton and will probably not beside
it today. If he decides to grant one
he will set day when the evidence will
be reviewed. Either party can take an
appeal to the supreme court from the
decision of the district court
Mr.. Haynes was formally notified by
Mayor Andrews this afternoon to give
up. his office, and said that he would
consult his attorney and follow his
advice. Later, City Attorney Schmitt
served written notice upon Mr..
Haynes to vacate.
Mr.. HAYNES, WHO was at his office
bright and early this morning said
that he was the city engineer and ready
to do any business connected with his
office. He sat in the office, at his desk
all day, following the advice of his
attorneys, who did not wish him to
voluntarily retire.
Mr.. Haynes made the statement
that if the council elected another
city engineer it would have to pay the
salary of two engineers, for he pro-
posed to draw his salary until the end
of his term. He does not consider
that he was legally ousted, and will
fight the proceeding.
City Attorney Schmitt gave instruc-
tions that no lines were to be taken
from Mr.. Haynes.
Mr.. Wilson, who was elected city
engineer this afternoon, has, since be
located in Mankato to over a month
ago, become property owner having
purchased handsome residence lot. He
is much pleased with Mankato.
Holding the Fort.
Late this afternoon Mr.. Haynes was
still holding the fort. Although he
had consulted one of his attorneys, he
would not make any statements. When
asked if he proposed to be con deck"
in the morning, Mr.. Haynes replied.
"Come up and see."

Mankato Earnest Hobbs left this
city for Washington state seven
months ago, and it appears that he
carried with him the heart of Miss
Gusta Bohn, who resided with his sis
ter and brother at 22l West Fourth
street, and has been employed for
five years past at Rosenberger &
Curriers' candy factory.
Girl Visited the Fair.
Last week Miss Bohn announced
that she was going to visit the state
fair for two or three days, with an.
other young lady of this city. When
she did not come back Sunday, inquiry
was made of the other young woman
and she knew nothing about the mat
ter and had not seen Miss Bohn it is
said, nor planned to 60 to the state
fair with her. Then search of Miss
Bohn's room was made and it was
found that all of her clothing and
other possessions were gone.
They Wait in Vain.
The brother and sister have since
waited i'll vain to her from their
sister. As the latter is twenty seven
years of age, they feel that she is
fully competent to take care of her
self. They are now pretty well con-
WINGED that their sister met Mr..
Hobbs in the twin cities, as it is
known that he had returned there,
and they are inclined to think that
an elopment was planned and carried
out.
Girl Probably Met Hobbs.
Richard Bohn, brother of the young
lady, works at the tub factory, and
when seen there today by Free
Press reporter, said that he thought
that his sister probably met Hobbs
by appointment in the twin cities
and was married to him, and left for
Washington. He did not know this
for sure, but surmised as much. When
asked why the wedding could not have
taken place in Mankato, he replied
with smile that he would not have
stood for it, and Hobbs and his sister
knew this.
Hobbs is employed as telephone line
man in some town in the state
of Washington. Both he and Miss
Bohn have many friends, and if it
is true that they have planned an
elopement and have gone to the coast
they will have the best wishes of all,
and doubtless the forgiveness of the
brides brother and sister. The Bohns
are very nice people.
