The New York jury- failed to give young Rhinelander a separation from bis wife on the ground that she had deceived him by keeping secret the fact that she had negro blood.

The jury wa* try ing the girl for fraud and deception, not for having negro blood. In New York state it is not against the law for whites and negroes to marry. In North Carolina this marriage would have been pronounced void the mo ment it was proven that one of the parties had negro blood. Now there are a lot of people calling for this and that to be done by the nation instead of the states, and among these things are uniform marriage laws. The lawyers of the defense in this case appealed to the sympathy of the jury for the mulatto girl as an indi vidual. For the plaintiff the lawyers appealed for race integrity and warned that no white person would think with complacency of marriage with a I negro. But their appeal had iw Tuesday, weight with the jury. Perhaps they , did not see anything so bad about the young woman. The New York World came out in a fine editorial some time ago and said that this case should never have gone to court and that the lawyers were to blame for letting it go there, that high-minded lawyers would have secured its settle ment outside of court sod thus avoid ed the .pain and humiliation to both sides. Mrs. Rhinelander will now sue for separation and alimony, a thing which she must have bad in mind all the time, for Rhinelander appears to be a feeble-minded boy of twenty who has very, little Sense about anything.
