POWELL & SNIDER ABAIT IS HAPFV HIS BON'S AKIIUGG IN- The Scr rt la Chiefly Con cerned In ssefraudlnif Mrs. Blaine From the Charge oi Hot. Hilly to Mis) Son's wife. Washington, Feb. 29. Mr. Blaine has furnished.the Associated Press for pub lication a long statement, on .'the mar riage andjdivorce of his son, . G., jr. Secretary Blainejsays: "Sinceithe separationJW jny son and hit wife, threeand aalf years ago, my familyjhayesilently'borne Jeverv misrep resentation, every slanderous attack, cvei y newspaperjinterviewjwhich it hus pleased the now divorced wile to inspire. The one person aimed at has been Mrs. Blaine, the last outrage, embodied in the decision of the judge nt Deiidvood, Dak., assumes amomcial character which makes it impossible to remain longer silent. To remain.silent. would be to accept and perpetuate a great wrong to my wile, and gagreater wrong to ray grandson, than even the publication of the truth can inflict upon him." fcMr. Blaine then prints a letter he ad dressed in 1886 to Kev. Thomas I. Ducey, rector St. Leo's church, No. 16 East street.iNew York city, the minister who married his son. Secretary Blaine charges that he did so knowing that his son was under age, aud adds: As a servant of God, to whose ministry you are ordained, I call God to witness between vou and me. OI whatever evils resulting from this deplorable marriage my son may be the am hor or the victim the guilt be on vour head. Mr. Blaine then uses on to cliargethat the marriage was arranged by Miss Nevins fur, more than by his son; that the stuteinent that "Mrs. Blaine broke up the marriage relations ol my son and lug wife" is false, that he offered the voung couple a fine house, rest free, and $2,500 a year, but that the wife, nee Ncvius, declined to stay in Augusta on any terms; that she finally left Mr. Blaine's house nt Augusta on the eve ol the arrival of her husband, ami that she was at times insulting in Mrs. Blaine's presence. Mr. Blaine concludes: "I-'ar be it from me to hold my son blameless; though when his youth, his uncompleted education, his separation from the influences of home, exchange ol a life of hopes and anticipations fur premature cures and uncongenial com panionship, are considered, 1 hold him more sinned against than sinning. Bui his mother, at uo time, in thought, or word or deed, attempted to separate this man nnd his wife. On the contraiy, she did not fail by liberality, by consid eration, and by extenuation, to toster in every practicable way their happiness if happiness to them had been possible " THIS IS SERIOUS.

SPEAKER REED SUSTAINED A DECISION OF THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT. ;T HERE AT LAST. The House of Representatives Has the RlKht Decide What Is a Quorum of That Body The Importers' Case. Washington, Feb. 29. The "no quo rum" case, in which the legality of the Dinghy worsted act was attacked by Kollin, Joseph & Co., importers, was today decided by the United States su preme court. The Dingby act was passed through the action ot Speaker Reed in counting a quorum when there was a quorum of members present but not voting. The importers maintained that Speaker Reed's action was in violation of the constitution and that an act passed in this manner was void. The United States circuit court for the southern dis trict ot Kew Verk, decided against the United States, and in favor of the impor ters on this ground, so that the case came before the United States supreme court, adverse to the constitutionality of the"no quorum"method of parliamentary procecdure. The United States supreme court in an opinion by Justice Brewer holds that the "no quorum" rule was valid aud that the house of representa tives had a right to make such a rule., THE.M'KINI.EV.ACT.

IIlNhop Joyce Han a Time In Doing 8o. Bishop yce, who preached at the First M. E. church, Patton avenue, yes terday, had a rather hard experience in getting to Asheville. He had intended to arrive here about 7 o'clock Saturday afternoon, counting upon a train Unit once was but now is not on the Western North Carolina road. When the good Bishop arrived at Paint Rock-he was amazed to learti that there would be no passenger train to Asheville earlier than Sunday afternoon. This, of course, was distracting to him, as he ex peeled to preach at 11 in the morning. 1-iiially. after some telcgraphim:, per mission was given by the railroad au thorities lor the Bishop to come to Ashe ville on a freight truin which was soon to leave. This provision was hailed with delight hv Bishop Joyce, mid he climbed on the freight. The train hail not proceeded far before a coupling broke and the engine and severul cars went on on the trip, while the remaining cars, including the conductor s cab, were lelt far behind. Bishop lovcc then held an informal re- ligious service, having for an audience the conductor, flagman aud a brakeman or two. The engineer of the train ran a mile or so before he found he was pulling an abbreviated train, and then went back alter the remainder. There was no further accident, and the Bishop reached Asheville about 1 o clock Sunday morn COLORED REPUBLICANS. w J X 4 a CLOTHING, DRY GOODS, FANCY GOODS. HATS, SHOES, CARPETS, &C. The United Slates Supreme Court Affirms a Decision Coiivicliuit New Yorker of Welling AuHlria Lottery Bonds lu Illinois. Washington, Feb. 29. The cases oi Edward H. Horner versus the United States was today decided by the United States supreme court. Horner is a New York banker who told Austrian florin bonds in which there is a lottery leature, the bond being drawn in the same man ner as lottery prizes. Horner was tried under the recent anti-lottery act and convicted. Aside from the question as to whether or sot the scheme comes within the pro visions of the anti-lottery act, an impor tant constitutional point uwns raised, vix.: That as the letters containing the advertisement of the lottery were mailed in New York, Horner could not be tried in Illinois, in which state the letters were received. The lottery act made the of fence triable, in either the district of mailing or of receipt and it was con tended that this provision violated the federal constitution. The United States supreme court affirmed the judgment of the lower court in favor ol the United States and against Horner, in an opinion by Justice Blatchford. The Its Supreme Court Affirms Constitutionality. Washington, Feb. 2'J. Three cases in which the importers sought to test the constitutionality of the McKinley tariff act were today decided by the United States supreme court. Ground on which it was maintained that the tariff act was unconstitutional was that the to bacco rebate section of the bill had been omitted in its enrollment after the passage by congress and that therefore the bill signed by the president was not the bill passed by the legislative depart ment of the government; also that the reciprocity leature wus a transmission to the executive ot the lawmaking power and therefore void, vitiating the whole act, and lastly thih the act was void because of the sugar bounty pro vision. The United States supreme court af firmed the judgments ol the New Vork and Illinois circuit courts ot the United States, in lavor of the constitutionality of the act.
