CHILE'S EXPERIMENT

SPECIE PAYMEXT HESl MED I1V THE IlKPl IlLIC LAST SATIIIDAV. A Return to the ftnlil Standard After Seventeen Yenr I'so of Pnper DloneyIlllnois Sllverlte. WASHINGTON, June 3.-Senor Don Gana, the Chilian minuter, has received the following cablegram from Santiago: "It is very gratifying for me to inform you that after seventeen years of th regime of paper money Chili has returned with satisfaction and confidence to the gold standard. The law is In force. "FERNANDEZ. Minister of Finance." The resumption of specie payments in Chili, which occurrel on last Saturday, promises to furnish some interesting lesson on coinage legislation. Reports from there ?ay that the government tried to familiarize the people with the new forms of sliver and gold coin by getting out a preliminary issue. They were quickly exchanged for the old paper money, but as soon as the novelty had worn off the people were plad to go back to the more convenient form of paper currency. Another embarrassment occurred when the jrovemment found that coin was being exported In great quantities. The new specie-payment law fixed the ratio between the metals at 41 to 1. This ignored the current ratio of the remainder of the world, that In the London market, at the present time being about 21 to 1. As a result tf this difference gold bullion began to flow out of Chili at an alarming rate. The silver coins were also exported, because the law provided that they should contain 111 grains of pure silver, which made them worth Intrinsically more than the current sliver dollar. Thus, both gold and silver were being drained out of Chill, so that the government ordered the mints to stop further coinage. Tnder the law, the mints began last Saturday, and there Is much interest to learn what the result will be of this latest step. ILLINOIS SILVEHITES.

The admiral (Kirkland) Is a big, bluff old fellow. Just the one to bulldoze the Turk, and he did it in style. The Turks have been quite nasty up there of late.

THE HIGHEST COURT i SI PIIH3IE Jf STICKS AX.Ol Ci: SEVERAL DECISIONS AND ADJOl H. JariflrmeiitN Rendered ly French Courts ot Valid Here Auk. 1SJM, Date of Xevr Tariff Luv. WASHINGTON, June 3.-In the Supreme Court to-day Justice Gray announced the decision of the court In the case of Henry Hilton and others vs. Guyot. liquidator of the estate of Fortin & Co., Involving J the validity of foreign Judgments, reversing the decisions of the court below anil remanding the case for trial in the Circuit Court of the Southern district of New Ycrk. Chief Justice Fuller and Justices Harlan, Brewer and Jackson dissented. the court then standing five to four, the majority being Gray, F.eld, Brown, Shiras and White. Justice Gray also announced the decision In the Ritchie case affirming the decision of the court below. This was a case Involving the validity of a judgment of a Canadian court. The case of Hilton and Llbbey vs. Guyot Involved the validity of Judgments ren dered by foreign courts against American citizens and it is understood that a large number of claims of a character similar to that prosecuted by Guyot, Involving many millions of dollars in amount, have been held In abeyance until the conclusion of the court in this case should be made known. 1 he case does not properly be long to the present term of the court. It was twice argued during the term of 1KC94, but no conclusion was announced by the court prior to the adjournment of that term and It has remained undecided through this term until to-day. Guyot appears in the case as the liquidator cf the French firm of Charles Fortin & Co., formerly glove manufacturers, of Paris, and Messrs. Hilton & Llbbey, as the successors of A. T. Stewart & Co.. of New York. The history of the case goes back to ISSrt, and that of the transactions on which It is based to 180, when the house of Stewart & Co. entered into an agreement with one Alexandre, the predecessor of Fortin & Co., to take from the French house all the gloves manufactured by them for the American market, the two establishments to share both the profit and the loss of the business. In 1880 this agreement was brought to a close by a misunderstanding and mutual charges of bad faith. The French firm brought suit In the Tribunal of Commerce of the Seine, when the case was decide! in favor of Fortin & Co., and from which decision It was appealed by Stewart & Co. to the Paris Court of Appeals, where the decision was also antagonistic to Stewart & Co., the final judgment in the French courts fixing the amount of the Indebtedness of the New York bouse to. the French firm at 5195,122. with interest. Before the final decree was announced Stewart & Co. closed the Paris establishment, ani, being unable to collect the amount of the Judgment in France, Fortin 5r Co., in 1S9, brought suit in the Cnited States Circuit Court for the Southern district cf New York to compel collection or the French Judgment. The defendants liled a bill of discovery, alleging counter claims and asserting that the Judgment of the French court was re-examlnanle. The decision was rendered by Judge Wallace, of the Circuit Court. He dismissed the bill of discovery and ordered that Stewart & Co. should pay the Judgment In accordance with the finding of the French courts. The case was appealed to the United States Supreme Court In 1830. The case of Samuel J. Ritchie vs. James B. McMullin and George W. McMullin, In error from the court of the Northern district of Ohio, involved the same questions as the Hilton case, except that the judgment which it was sought to hive affirmed was rendered by a Canadian court. Justice' Gray's opinion in the French case was very brief, and was delivered so indistinctly that It was impossible to catch his language. The decision was a denial of the validity of judgments of countries which do not recognize the rule of International comity In such matters. The rule of comity. Justice Gray said, was recognized by some foreign countries. Including Greece and Portugal, but It was not In force in the French courts. He made this refusal of the French courts to recognize the Judgments of the courts of other countries the basis of his opinion, that a Judgment in the French courts would not hold In this country. Chief Justice Fuller and Justices Harlan, Brewer and Jackson, who dissented, did not announce their reasons. In the Ritchie case, in error to the Circuit Court of the Northern district of Ohio, involving a Canadian Judgment, there was no allegation of fraud, but only of error on the part of the court. Justice Gray said this was not sufficient foundation for a review, and affirmed the decision of the court below, which held the Canadian Judgment to be valid. Chief Justice Fuller handed down the opinion of the court in the case of the Cnited States vs. Burr and Hardwick. Involving the date when the present tariff law went Into effect. The decision was that this did not occur until Aug. 2S. 18M, when the bill became a law notwithstanding the law Itself fixed the date as Aug. 1. The case was regarded by the government as one of great importance, and by special arrangement was advanced to a speedy hearing. The governernment won. In this case there were three questions certified from the Cnited States Court of Appeals for the Second circuit. The first of these was as to whether the assessment for duty under paragraph 373 of the act of Oct. 1, 1S90. should be maintained, notwithstanding the provisions ot the tariff act of Aug. 28, 1894, and was answered in the affirmative. The second, "should merchandise entered between Aug. 1 and Aug. 28. 1894. be assessed for duty under paragraph 276. schedule "J," of the tariff act of 1S&4," was answered In th negative. The third question was whether the rates of duty prescribed by the first section of the tariff act of 1I (unless otherwise provided for In the act), should be levied, collected and paid on all articles imported from foreign countries or withdrawn for consumption on and after Aug. 1, 1834. and prior to Aug. 28. of the same year, out Chief Justice Fuller, who delivered the opinion of the court in this case, said the question was so indefinite that the court would not enter upon it. Chief Justice Fuller also announced that the court had decided to grant the application of Constable Beach. In the South Carolina dispensary law case, for leave to file a motion for habeas corpus. The case was set for hearing on the first Monday of the next term of court. In the case of Plutarco Ornelas vs. Inez Ruiz and others. Involving the extradition of Insurgents against the Mexican government, in the Garza outbreak, the Chief Justice announced that the motion to advance would be granted, and the argument was et for the first Monday In January next. The court then adjourned until the second Monday In October. Thirty-four case which have been argued were left undecided. (iKESHAM'S PENSION.

A report received at headquarters about 12 o'clock last night cnt Captain Qulgley driving very fast toward No. 41 Elm htreet. From the report received It was impossible to tell whether a dead body, a baby or a dynamite bomb had been left on the porch at that number. In some way the report became twisted until. It read that au attempt had been made to blow up the Elm-street Church, by placing dynamite on the front steps. No. 41 is but a short distance from the church. Captain yuigley found a package on the porch at the number given. It was opened and the contents were found to be sacks. Then the family remembered that relative living In Franklin, who were stopping in the neighborhood last night, promised to bring the sacks In. and it was supposed that the bundle was laid on the porch rather than awaken the family. The latter were not asleep, however, and the strange looking bundle caused considerable excitement. Lee Fnliuer's Stolen Horse.
