For the moment the troops seem to
have the situation in hand. bat there
is no telling when the anger of the
people over the contemplated action
by the government in restoring the
department Of Aube to the champagne
district. will again sweep them on to
the wanton destruction OF propert::, and

Unless~the government gives asSur,

1t is estimated that more than
10000 900 gallons OF champagne we're
emptied into the streets of bpernav,
Danery. Picrrv, Marieuil, Diaz and
Venteuil, where the rioting has, been
the worst.
The soldiers had numerous encount-

have bsen slightly injured, 40 deaths
were reported today. The soldiers say
that unless the burning OF property
ceases, they will begin shooting the Of

Women ara playing prominent
part in. the rioting. They are being
used virtually as shields against the
dragons, who dislikes to ride down
nobs containing so many women.

THURSDAY EVENING. APRIL !
The New York Court of Appeals has

The New York Court Of Appeals has
declared unconstitutional the work
mems compulsory compensation law
passed by the last state legislature and
signed by Governor Hughes, holding
that the law takes property without due
process Of law. The opinion Is unanl-
NOUS. The main feature OF this law,
Which was designed to meet the new
industrial conditions under which men
ard,women work in certain dangerous
calings. is that the employers must
compensate their workers for injuries
received in the course OF work solely
through the negligence OF the employe'
n, Il not from any fault Of the employer.
TT @ case at issue was that OF a switch
mru named Ives against a Buffalo
street railroad. His counsel held that
be was injured by a necessary RISK OF
h.s employment, and the railroad ad-
n.itted that the man was injured. IN
rendering the opinion OF the court
Judge Werner said it had to disregard
all the economic and sociological argu'
n:-nts advanced in support OF the law
and consider only whether 1t !nfringed
tie letter or spirit Of the written eonstl-
n,,ion. He said that they wanted tc
present no purely technical or hyper
critical obstacle to any plan for the re-
rmation Of our jurisprudence, IL
' hich it is conceded reform Is needed
The right of property, he SAID, had itS
foundation not in theory but IN funda'
,.ental law, which the people might
change, but which legislatures coulc
OF ignore. Any other views wou!c
Lead to the ab>urdity that the consttu
IN protects only those rights whlct
He legislatures do take awav.
