NOVEMBER 10. 1S91. NO. 52 Arguments Regarding a Behring Sea Seizure. GOVEBITMEUTS BEFOEE THE OOTJBT, A Case Whore tlie Supreme Court of the United States Decided Against Onr Government on tho Question of Be Concluded This Afternoon.

WASHINGTON. Nov. in the Hayward. or Behiing sea case, in- volving important points in the controversy between the United States and Great Britain concerning the right of jurisdiction in Behring sea. brought an unnsual number of people to the chamber of the Federal supreme court to hear the arguments of the contending parties.

Ex-Secretary Bayard and ex-Senator Edmunds sat within the bar, and gave close attention to what was raid. A number of other disiinfniished lawyers were present, and every member of "the court was in liis sent. Attorney General Miller and Solicitor General Taft represented the United States, while Calderon Carlisle, of Washington, and Joseph H. Choate, of New York, appeared for the British Kpvernmeut. The case in controversy is that of the schooner W.

P. Say ward, a Canadian vessel seized bv the United States in Behring sea for illegal sealing, supposedly fifty-nhie miles from any shore. The Sirs-ward was libelled by the United States district court of Alaska for taking seal in violation of the statutes of IheUniti-d States, and the ease was carried to the supreme court; npon a motion for a writ of against the Alaska nmrt njiun the grounds that the vessri was outside the juiis- dietion of the United States over the waters of Bnliring sea. The government, when the case was called before the supreme court, denied the jurisdiction of the court to consider the application for writ of prohibition, but the court held adversely. Briefs were filed by both parties, and the case came up for argument yesterday afternoon on its merits.

The Question of Jurisdiction. Mr. Carlisle opened the for the British government. He occupied just an hour. No decision of the court could, lie said, interfere with the independence of congress.

The court could, without expressing any opinion on the question of protecting seals, render a decision on the question of a fifty-nine mile limit. He claimed that an Alaska judge before he signed his decree in the ca.se, placed upon evidence an opinion that warranted hint in dismissing it. Mr. Carlisle contended that in the exercise of power conferred on the supreme court to issiie writs of prohibition the court directed to revise the position of the court below. The supreme court, he Bald, was a superior court calling to account an inferior court that had exceeded its authority.

He made further argument that tlie United States supreme court had jurisdiction over all other courts. The supreme court, he said, could go deeper into the case than merely net ing on the face of the papers presented to it. certifying the decision of the Alaska court. The court must not ignore farts; it must not simply examine the records, and he quoted an. opinion in support of this contention.

He believed, he said, that the case depended upon the decision of a question cf law as to whether tin; revised statutes forbade the killing of seal. The limits of marine territory in Behring sea were not fixed, he said, by tlie Russian treaty, but liy the law of nations. it was an absolute provision of that law that this jurisdiction could not changed except by a concurrence of nations. The attorney general had lost KigJit of a niost important fact in the oise. He claimed that the question was a jioliticnl one, and did not involve international law.

A question that involved the liberty and property of foreign people could never be a political question. Mr. Taft's Arjrumcnt.) Solicitor General Taft followed for the United States. He alleged that the seizure was made in the waters" of Alaska, and in that portion of Behring Bea belonging to the United States. The other side denied tbis.

but the statute of March 3, 18S9. settled that the United States had jurisdiction. Mr. Taft devoted considerable attention to the words, "face of the proceedings," contending that if there was want of. jurisdiction by the Alaska court, a statement of it did not appear on the face of "the proceeding, and court was not called on to decide except on them.

He cited decisions of English courts to prove that unles the point at issue was stated ou the of the proceedings prohibition could not issue', and he insisted tluit the Alaska court findings was conclusive. It could not be proven, he raid the Sayward. when seized, was not within the three league limit. The government, he said, did not deny that the jurisdiction of the district court of Alaska mid the venue of the offense were judicial questions, but it maintained that Ihe question at issue was a political one. This afterneon Mr.

Choate will close the argument for the British, government and Attorney General Miller will close for the United States. Prepare for the Fair. Nov. tisou issued a proclamation calling upon the citizens of the state, without distinction of race, cived or sex, to prepare for furnishing their full proportion to the imereft. value and financial prosperity of Ihe Columbian at Chicago.

CALCUTTA, Nov. cyclone passed over the Andaman Islands, situated in the Bay of Bengal. The islands form a British convict settlement, to which East Indian criminals are transported.

There is no clew to the perpetrators of the outrage. Opinions are divided as to the cause of the sacrilege. The supporters of the government say that it is the work cither of paid agents of the Vatican, or of fanatics who are incensed at the fact that there is a possibility of the pope being. compelled to leave Rome. On the other hand the friends of the Vatican say that they cm see in the incident further evidence of the desire of the Italian government, through secret agents, to increase the bitter, dangerous feeling already expressed against the vaticim.

socialists are preparing, it is said, to make a warm attack iu the reichstag upon any meiisnres proposed in pursuance of the kaiser's new hobby of enforcing personal morals by law. The kaiser's views are not at all acceptable to the socialists, who charge him with attempting to assume authority little short of omnipotent, and altogether unsuited for the present Btageof civilization.

THE AVON There are No Cmtipliilnts from and It Is Kept Disorderly. The Report yesterday afternoon stated that "people living in the neighborhood complain that the Avon Inn is kept further alleged that nightly carousals were permitted and threats made on Sunday that if not conducted more decently an attempt will be made to have the license further that "last evening about JO men started from the 'Inn' and chased two women up and down the pike like fiends, and the reports that come from thera, IF TRUE, are disgraceful." A representative of the NEWS paid a visit to Avon Inn last evening to ascertain tho correctness of the allegations and found, as usual, that the Report is nothing if not sensational, and untrustworthy, and that no such complaints have been made; no such threats made and no such disorderly conduct found to exist.

Wny not ascertain "if true" before chargiig it? Mr. Charles Stine. who resides opposite, stated that neither his family nor Mr.Bleistine had made such complaint or threat and that the Inn was not kept disorderly and that no two women were chased up and down the pike on Sunday evening, as there were not that many people there. Mr. Adam Stains, of this city, who was at the Inn until 8 o'clock on Sunday evening, said that when he left there was no persons at the that during the evening no such disturbance took place.

Mr. Frank Spangler, the bartender, who remained there, says there were not that many people there, and that no stteh disturbance took place; that no complaints or threats had been made and that the article was a falsehood. The account is also untrue as to facts in regard to the attack upon County Detective Sattazahn, as Constable Sohn was not engaged in it. It has been the to have an officer stationed at the stairway to keep all parties, not accompanied by ladies, to ascend to the parlors above, which is a wise order. "Bull Eye" Weirich or William Long, who made the attack, came there with three others in a vehicle, and being intoxicated, upon his arrival moved through the throng all evening with a view of starting a fight and upon attempting to go upstairs was prevented by County Detective Sattazahn, like the rest, from doing so.

The Lebanon Aunvillo Street Railway company is not the owner of the Avon Inn, but even if it was nothing has occurred there which would make it improper to be identified with it. It is well enough to make wholesale untruthful charges, but the source is such, as has been demonstrated on other public affairs, as not worthy of further consideration. To attempt to destroy a legitimate business, carefully kept, to damage the patronage of a corporation which has done so much for this city may be the ideal of journalism, but at the same timeto enjoy the generosity of the party attacked to say tho least, iincstionable and to be despised by all honorable men. ROBBERY OF A STORE. The Store of 31r.

J. A. Hcilman, at Jones- town, Robbed Last Night for the Fourth Time. Mr. John A.

Ileilman, merchant, doing business at the Jonestown depot, arrived in this city this morning and informed us that his store had again been robbed last night of a large amount of merchandise, clothing, shoes, and that he was not aide to state at present his loss, but it would amount to several hundred dollars. Ho is at a loss to state how an entrance was gained, but the supposition is that the rear window was forced. Upon arrival at the store this morning all the doors, including the cellar, were found wide open, which gave evidence that the entire establishment had been thoroughly ransacked, and the goods carried away by team. Two bags tilled with goods were left behind. This is the fourth time the store has been robbed since Mr.

Heilraan is engaged in bnsfness there, and from the manner of doing it and tho means used to carry away the stolen property it is evident the parties arc most likely the same gang which has operated falong the northern section of this county for sev oral years. He holds a policy of insurance in the Reading company, and hopes to capture the thieves this time. Mr. Heilman, being subpiunaed in a case at court, was unable to give attention to the matter, but has informed the insurance company of his loss. RESULTED FATALLY.

Ssptember's moon was the Harvest moon and October's the Hunter's, and each was interesting in its way, but November's moon will beat them both in the way of curious phenomena.

Two'moons this month. Imprimis, the November moon came in promptly with the first day of the month, and this early appearance admits of another new moon on the last day of the month, thus giving us the somewhat nnusual number of five phases for the calendar month. In the next place Madame, our consort having already been in conjunction with Mcrcurv, and having paid her compliments to Venus on election night, will indulge in four more conjunctions before her exit. But, more important still, the moon will be totally eclipsed on the 15th of the month. The eclipse will be visible here and also in Asia, Africa, Europe, the Atlantic and the eastern portion of the Pacific Ocean.

The moon will remain five hours and a half in the shadow, the period of total eclipse lasting one hour and ahalf. The entire magnitude of the eclipse will be one-third larger than the face of moon. The performance will begin at 9:30 in the evening, and the curtain will not drop until after three o'clock the following morning, when, to reverse the usual order of things, the chief performer will make his appearance instead of his exit.
