John Marshall Harlan.

The people of the United
States have particular reasons
to deplore the death of AS
Sociate Justice Harlan.
Without intending disrespect
to the other members of the
supreme court bench, it may
be said that any of them
could be better spared than
the one that is gone.
Justice Harlan won the
title of ''the great dissenter,"
and it was a badge Of honor.
More than any other justice
Of the supreme court he stood
for humanity as against pro-
perty. He was one of the
five justices who held the in
come tax clause of the Will
son bill Of 1894 to be consti-
tutional, the four being
overruled by a majority of
one. Throughout his entire
judicial career he was a man
Of the strongest indepen-
dence. !
The opinion of the major
ity of the court never swerv-
ed him from his own views,
when, after careful determi-
nation, he had formed them.
Especially was he opposed to
Legislation by judicial con-
struction and his recent dis.
senting opinion in the Stand
ard Oil case was a scathing
rebuke Of the reading into
the Sherman act by the other
justices of words that were
not in the text nor never in.
tended by the trainers Of the
bill.
He was as simple in his life
as he was straightforward in
his opinions, and ruggedly
honest in his whole career.
He was the bulwark of the
common people on the SUI
preme court bench. BY
right Of age, length of SER
vice and ability he should
have been named chief JUS
tice after the death Of the
late Melville w. Fuller, but
bis progressiveness and de. {
votion to a strict adherence !!
to constitutional limitations {
was not in his favor with the
present administration. It &
be doubted that Jus. !
tice Harlan keenly felt the $
slight imposed in passing t
him over, but it was not in f
his generous nature and ma. '
i've dignity to exhibit resent q
nent. And it will not mat.
;er in history that he failed :
o achieve the distinction !
hat should have been his.
it his memory will
i've. Elk.

CATHOLIC MEETING
 MAY CAUSE TROUBLE

Madrid. June Especial. l-All Spain, and especially Madrid, is keenly appre- hensive of serious trouble next week when the eucharistic congress begins it's ses- sions.
 Quietly the government is making prep aratons to meet any eventuality. Pre- paratory religious ceremonies will be- gin on Wednesday next, lasting until Fr- day. The eliminating feature of the congress will be a monster parade on June 2s which will include 2O0O bishops and other prelates, several thousand
 least 100000 Catholics from all parts ofrfhe world. A large delegation is to be present from the United States.
 A certain section of the Spanish pop. ulstion, especially in Madrid, is bitter ly anti Catholic, and the recent strain be- tween the Canaleja's government and the Italian has intensified this bitterness.
 The advance guard of the Catholics all ready have begun to arrive. and there have heen several ominous clashes with such todles in public.
 Nobody denies that most of the priests in Spain, especially the monks, carry weapons under their cassocks. The carl ists have sworn not only to defend the priests and monks, but to punish by force Of arms any act directed against the chtu ch or religion by the radical republic an sor socialists. That the carlists mean what they say is evident Don Jaimi has apr roved their attitude. and their leader has perfected a military organization, companies, regiments and battalions, to be ready at the first call.
 Serious trouble is expected and the authorities are making preparations &C., cordingly.

AMERICAN GIRL
 FORGETS HER NAME
Is in Paris and Has Lost All Memory of Past
 Life

Paris, June 1s-(SpeciaD-A young lady who is either English or American is at present attracting much attention in Paris, owing to her strange situation. Her plight is worthy of the imagination of a romantic novelist, for although per fectly rational she has lost all memory of her own identity. She can not re- member her name, her family, or her birthplace. Dr. Demenant Des Chesna, an eminent nerve specialist, is studying the case. He says the lady is tall, slen- der, of refined appearance. with blue eyes and chestnut hair. She is both in- telligent and charming. Ii is her impress sion that she is heiress to a large fortune and she is constantly asking when she is to come into possession of her money.
 The doctor has made various attempts to solve the mystery of her identity but each attempt leaves him more puzzled than he was before. He has several times put his patient into hypnotic sleep with out gaining much from the. experiment. While gazing into chrystal globe. she recounted with extreme volunerableness a mass of details of how she was ship wrecked in the Drummond castle when that vessel went down off Ushant some years ago. She discussed how both her parents perished and how she was saved by a man named Bennett, but when the doctor wrote to Ushant. he found no trace of a survivor of that name. On another occasion she told in a painful reality how she was In the Grantham express disaster
 When questioned as to her early days she said she had been brought up at a convent near Eastbourne, and the particu- lars she supplied were so convincing that a lady went with her to England to vert fy her story. But a nun who had been at the convent for 25 years did not recoL- had attended her declared he bad never seen her.
 Dr. Des Chesnas theory is that his pa- tient is in a second state which may last two or three years and in her mind there is a confused recollection of all she has seen, read and lived through. There fore, all the information she gives re- garding herself and others is false and has no other basis than her imagination He believes she has travelled a great deal for she constantly speaks of New York, Chicago Los Angeles, Seattle, Buffalo and places in Germany, giving the names of streets and other details. Sometimes she speaks of her father and uncle, who she says. were officers and of her broth CTS and sister It is possible that her rel atives believe her to he dead and have ceased all efforts to find her
 She is at present living in Paris with a family which takes an interest il her case. When the doctor, who does not know English speaks to her, she answers him in indifferent French, but she speaks English perfectly.

Montgomery, June Montgomery de- faated Atlanta today by knocking the pail to every corner of the lot, T. hits being made in eight innings. Britton was knocked out of the box in the fifth, and Brock, who succeeded him, fared little better. the locals getting nine hits off the former and eight off the latter. In the third inning Manager Dobbs took of fense at a decision of Umpire Byron, hot words followed and Dobbs -punched ByroHs nose. He and Graham were put out of the game Gribbens and Sayidge taking their places A ball was knocked down the right field line, which Byron called fair, allowing one run to score on it.

 Manager Fisher stated to President Mitchell before he left for Decatur that he intended to release Walter Ford, for rner manager of the Models and brother Of Russell Ford. and after the showing in the first Decatur game when Ford allowed IS hits. there is no longer any doubt as to Ford's release The young eX-man- ager has proved a great disappointment 10 the fans by whom he Is generally liked.

To CompIete Dicker

Huntsville, June 1S.-(Special )-rhe president of the Huntsville Baseball asso- citation left this morning for Memphis to meet Art Riggs, manager of the Fort Smith team, and talk over the proposed removal of the pick of his team to Hunts vile. A tentative agreement has already been reached over the telephone, and the Memphis conference will be held for the purpose of deciding necessary details. It is stated that players on the Huntsville team, as it is now constituted, will be allowed to retain their positions if they can show the class that is required of them There are three or four men on the team who could doubtless make good in much faster company, and it would be inconsiderate and unnecessary to re- lease them. However, questions like that will be left with Riggs. There has been toe much interference of this kind on the part of the directors already. The Hunts vile association it is stated, has no in- tention of violating the salary limit oi the Southeastern league.

The Chattanooea Plutocrats will open an engagement against ths Barons, in Birmingham this afternon. As result of the series the Barons will either be firmly entrenehed in third place or will be neck and neck for that position with Chattanooga. or will be busted by tha4 club. Either of the three is possible.
 When Chattanooga was here before thai club was apparently firmly in possessien Of the cellar. Now, however, the Pluto erats are soaring high and moving with marvellous rapidity. on the previous visit Che Barons won three of four games from them, and but for shortage of pitchers would have made clean sweep of the series
 The Pldtocrats will be harder to down now, however. and it is certain that there will be some nifty contests before the. series is terminated. But it is remem- bered that last season when the Barons ac<led the LooIouts they were going at a greater rate of speed than at the pres ent time Then the Barons mopped up with them. winning four straights, and putting them on the soapy route winch they continued practincally to the con cusion of the season. History may re- peat itself in the coming engagements.
 It IS very probable that Bill Smith will commission Forrest More to trim the Barons this afternoon, or he may set tie on Benton. Twice this season have the Barons met Benton, and twice have they been defeated But in eacn en- ga cement they have hit the "Rube' hard and often He won his game against uyder Barr in Il innings. and in the final round of his victorious engagements in Chattanooga, the Barons smashed him five times for a total of five bases. They have met More three times this season. having defeated him twice In the game he won he did the stick work himself, and deserved the triumph.
 Bert Maxwell will probably be the se- lection of Manager Moesworth for this afternoons game. Trough will work to- morrow.
