VinWS OK SKVATOIl FAIRIlAMiS. Of dlon Jn I.ln ?ltli the Administration' roller. WASHINGTON. May Senator Fairbank said to-day, In discussing yesterday's decisions of the Supreme Court: "The derl'lon of the Supreme Court Is tlmfly and a itisfactory. Jt upholds the administration in It.? rlaim that the Constitution does not extend Into territory acquired from Spain, and thai Congress may loglilute with reject to Porto Kico and the Philippines as their Interests may require. In short, the court hold that the Constitution does not follow the flag, and loaves to Congress the utmost freedom in dr-allntf with tho new conditions whl-h confront us and with the new peoples who have come to us. We are now te- deal with Porto Rico and the Philippine us, territory b longing to, and not as in Integral part uf the United States. "If the Supreme Court had conn to tho conclusion thai the Constitution ext .ads to the Islands in full force, upon the ratification of the treaty of peace. It would have resulted in very serious c mb:trra.-sm nt to the Inhld'ants thereof. The hands of Congress would have been tied, and all revenue and tari.T laws necessary in the United States would have been forced upon thr-m to their great Injury. Tho court justifies the contention of th- Republican party, advocated by Lincoln and adhered to to the prc.-?nt, that the Constitution does not extend into new territory unaided by Congress. "The court well says that there la no ground for apprehending danger, lest an unrestrained power on the part of Congress may had to unjust and oppressive leglslation, in which the natural rights of territories and their inhabitants may be engulfed In a centralized despotism, for there are certain principles of natural justice inherent In the Anglo-Saxon character which netd no expression in constitutions or statutes to lve thm enVct or to secure dependencies against legislation manifestly hostile to th' ir real Interests. TJie bill of rights irr.po.s certain inhibitions upon Congress, which the court distinctly re,--og-r.iz5s. In a larg s.nsr. Congress is left entirely free to deal with the new problems growing out of th acquiring of new territory, as the interests of the inhabitants thereof require. Another paramount issue Is laid to rest." SATISFIED AVIT1I HHSI IT. ronner Attorney fienerni Grigus on the Insular Derisions. NEW YORK. May 28. Former Attorney General Griggs, In an interview upon the Supreme Court Porto Itican decisions, said: "It ij a splendid victory for the administration on the vital principle of expansion. It is unnecessary for me to say that I am thoroughly satisfied with the result. It Is a clean-cut victory for the government on the only really important point involved. Three distinct classes of action wer Involved, on- protesting against the collection of tariff upon imports from Porto Itlco after the date of our armed occupancj of the island and before the date of the ratification of the treaty of peace; another protesting against tariff charges, on imports between the ratification and the passage of the Foraker acr and a third attacking the Foraker law as unconstitutional. The decision scores a victory for the administration in the Philippines of these clashes and upon the all-important third. The anti-administration party wins In the second class. That triumph is a mere matter of dollars and cents. Importers will get back the money paid in tariff betw sen the ratification and the pasage of the Foraker act. Importers who paid without protesting1 will not get their money back. Th court decides that the Fc raker uct is constitutional; that this country has the legal right to govern its new po"es slons as Territories; to make fptcial laws for them and to tax their products. This has been the contention of the administration from the very start. It was the principal issue In the last campaign for President. Our Porto Klean legislation was selected by Mr. Uryan as the main point of attack in his Indianapolis speech. The decision puts a quietus upon that sort of thing and takes the matter out of polities for all time. Th's decision Is final. There can be no appeal. The decision will not hurt Porto Ilican trade In the least." ext it a sr:siox rossinu:. ConKrfii Mny lie Called to ran I.nvrs for thr. Philippines. CH DA It RAPIDS, la..

Congress enacted the Foraker law were illegal anil tau.st be refunded. It is presumed that the court, following the same lines of reasoning, will decide that the duties collected on goods from the Philippines were aIo illegal and are subject to tree entry into the United States until Congress art?, as it has already done in tho case of Porto Rico. .Such a decision would mean not only the refunding of duties heretofore collected, but would open the ports of the L'nited States to merchandise and poods of every description from th.? Philippines until Congress meet3 In December. It U probable that importers might take advantage of this to ship goods into the United States through the Philippines, and thus defraud the government of its revenues. Whether the danger from this source is great enough to warrant the calling of Congress in extra session is one which will bo decided only after full deliberation. It 13 poible, however, that this danger may have been already obviated in thj enactment of the Spooner legislation delegating temporarily to the President the power to govern the Philippines. This may be considered an act of Congress within the meaning of the Downcs decision afbrminc the constitutionality of the Foraker law. Uut it Is a delicate question, and one which the President and his advisers will consider In all Its bearings before coming to a conclusion. The members of the Cabinet decline to discuss the subject ror publication. They united In a message of congratulation to former Attorney General Griggs, who prepared and presented the government's case to the Supreme Court. AS VIEWED A11HOAD.
Comment of the London I'reM "A Lamentable, Headlong Fall." LONDON, May 2S. The London newspapers have paid scant attention to the decision of the United States Supreme Court In the insular cases. The few comments made deal principally with the "confusing nature of the judgment." It is, however, agreed that the practical result is obvious that It leaves Congresä free to deal with the anil xed territories as it pleases. The St. James Gazette says: "It is one of those legal fictions which had so much to co with the development of our own institutions. It is certainly a convenient judgment for President McKinley' government, and will probably clear away many difficulties bequeathed to American statesmen by the Spanish war." The Daily News, which comments on the decisions as "perhaps the most momentous which this tribunal was ever called upon to make." regards them as "a curious issue to 1J) years of triumphant elemocracy," and says: "It is no progress, but retrogression; not the advancement of humanity, but that disheartening product of our times the militarism of a democracy. We venture to think that the framers of the Fnited States Constitution would have laughed at the possibility of such a development as Incredible. The decisions have extricated President McKinley from an uncommonly awkward position; but It is a lamentable, headlong fall in the moral scale and a turning of the back on al) that has been the special glory and distinction of the United States in order to join in the barbaric scramble for the waste places of the earth." OVERRIDES CONSTITUTION. Senator Clny Thlnkn the Decision (lives Congress Too Much Power. ATLANTA, Ga., May 2S. United States Senator Clay has this to say regarding the Supreme Court decision in the insular cases: "Under this decision. Congress can fix the religious status of the inhabitants of such territory, deprive the people of the right to a trial by jury, and is without any limitation whatever as to the methods to be adopted In legislating for the people occupying such territory. I had never thought that we could acquire and hold territory or a race of people either by conquest or treaty; that we could legislate for in any other way than that pointed out by the Constitution of the United States. I had always thought that when we acrjulre new territory either by treaty or conquest, such territory became a part of the United States and subject to the fundamental laws of the United States, but this decision hold to the contrary. This Is our highest Judicial tribunal, and It becomes the duty of all good citizens to accept the decision, because there Is nothing else to be done." Senator Bacon said: "The ruling is the essence of imperialism and destructive of the vital principles of constitutional republican government. It Is court-made law without warrant found in the Constitution. The court was organized to construe law, not to make law, least of all to make constitutional law. Such a monstrous doctrine revolutionizes our system of government and paves the way for the unbridled rule of the unrestrained majority. Too great honor and praise cannot be accorded to the dissenting four justices, two Democrats and two Republicans, who stood for our free institutions and constitutional government." Room for Senator Foraker. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, May 28. The Evening Star of this city, in its issue to-day, talks of Senator Foraker as a presidential cantlidate. It says: "One effect of the decision of the Supreme Court yesterday, sustaining the constitutionality of the Foraker act, b-, in the Juugment of shrewd observers, to make the senior Ohio senator a formidable and perhaps the logical candidate of the Republican party for President in 1301. The decision unquestionably adds to the prestige of Senator Foraker, and his friends are prompt to take advantage of it." With Perry Heath booming Senator Hanna and the Star performing the same functions for Senator Foraker Ohio will, as usual, be prominent in the public eye. The Saved and the Damned. Catholic School Journal. While we believe that outside of the church there is no salvation, we do not express a despairing judgment as to the eternal future of the millions wIk are not counted as Catholics. The fervor of Christianity is the warmth of charity, not the warmth of hell fire. How many will be damned, we do not know. It is no pleasure to us to think that any considerable number will be. We gain no access of spiritual life In convincing ourselves of the total depravity of the majority. Without detracting in the least from the duty of seeking the truth and finding it; without any disposition to fall Into tho Idolent moral feeling that a man's life, not his faith, determine his salvation, we realize nevertheless that there are many who are living right "according to th.'ir lights" outside of the visible commun'.on of the Catholic Church. They are of "the invisible church" and what their number may be we cannot Judge. We hope it Is large. Some members of the visible church may not be saved: many members of the Invisible church will be. But as all right living is based on right principles, the faith In which men live and die should ever bo matle a matter of supreme importance. I.onse by Klre. DULUTH.

DAYTON, O., May 2S. Muddy grounds and a slippery ball which could not be controlled in a pinch gave Indianapolis the last game of the series. This should not detract from the credit belonging to Watkins's men, for they played aggressively and took advantage of conditions unfavorable to the locals. Dayton used a new catcher successful:.,. Captain Donnelly was out of the game, and the versatile Wicker was again substituted with credit. The victory scored by Indianapolis came only after a stiff up-hill fight. Dayton secured two runs off Stlmmel in the second through well-placed hits. During half of the game it looked like a shut-out for the visitors, but in the sixth, when Dayto n made two erratic moves and Shannon made a timely hit, Indianapolis had two runs to show. Dayton pluckily advanced again at the next opportunity. Flynn's poor throw to first was responsible. In the eighth Indianapolis won through a base on ball, an error, a sacrifice and three hits. In this inning Coggswell was completely at sea. Attendance, 300. Score: Dayton. A.B. II. O. A. E.

The Indianapolis ball team arrived home last night from Dayton and will rest today after the long trip. To-morrow Indianapolis will play morning and afternoon games with Louisville at Washington Park. Manager Watklns said last night that the team played an excellent game in every city on the trip, winning ten games and losing five, a very good record away from home. Concerning the weather, he said there were two good days at Port Wayne and one at Grand Rapids, while all of the other days it rained or was very cold. The players have not seen sunshine for over a week, and the gamo at Dayton yesterday was (darted in the rain and ended in a rainstorm. In spite of all this bad weather, however, the attendance was very encouraging. Manager Watklns said the attendance in all of the cities was as good as could be expected, considering the weather, and he believes that on the next trip, when the weather is more propitious, the Indianapolis team will draw larger crowds away from home than any of the other clubs. Manager Watklns said he was not surprised at the good showing made on the trip by Louisville, as he believes Wllmot has one of the best teams in the league. The Colonels are making a hard fight to get toward the top, and will make the other clubs play hard to beat thern. Watkins was also well impressed with the article of ball played by all of the Western Association clubs. He said the Dayton team put up a game on their own grounds that was not of the same class they played here. Armour's men played the game from start to finish and gave Indianapolis a hard contest. The morning game to-morrow will be called at 10:30. and Alloway or Sutthoff will do the twirling for Indianapolis. Guese will probably do the pitching for Indianapolis in the afternoon game, which will bo called at 4 o'clock. Wcyhing. Bailey and Meekln, the three star twlrlers for Louisville, will be used In the two Decoration day games. Dnsehnll Notes.

INTEREST IN FIELD DAY
M.NE INDIANA HIGH SCHOOLS HAVE ALREADY EXTER ED. In the Lint of Entries There Arc Athletes with Good Records te Their Credit Coral Aot Barred. State Manager Robert Hall, who Is In charge of the interscholastlc field day meet to be held Saturday, Is a very busy man at this time. Nine high schools havo sent In their fees and will participate. They are Lafayette, Covington, Veedersburg, Terre Haute. Hartford City, Muncle, Crawfordsville, M. T. H. S. and Shortrldge, both of this city. In the nine schools entered there are 149 men, making fifteen event. Including: the relay race. The meet will be called at " 1:30 o'clock on account of the largo number of events. It has also been arranged by Manager Hall to have the heats in the bicycle races run while other events are being given. Another rule adopted which will insure a "continuous performance" is this: When an event is called and all the participants are not present the absentees are given two minutes in which tp appear ready for the track, and If they fall In that time they are to be disqualified. There aro In the list of entries a number of athletes who have made good records. This will insure a lively meet, as the M. T. II. S. of this city will have to light hard if they carry off the prizes. Covington, which made such a good showing last year, is entered again this season, and it is said may do better than last year's work. The team from the M. T. II. S., since its victory at Louisville, has been resting on its laurels, and little work has been done by the men. This, however, has been due largely to the bad weather. It has now been decided to allow Coval to ride in Saturday's contest, as it has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Shortridge athletes that he has not as yet entered the professional ranks. INTEREST IX IIICYCLE RACES. Many Fast Rider Hare Entered A Hand Concert.

The onemile amateur event will draw the best riders in the State and surrounding cities, as an effort will be made In this race to establish a mark for the distance, in order to capture, if possible, the gold medal offered by the American Bicycle Company for the bef-t amateur mile record in Indiana during the season. The race will be paced by fast men. The one-half-mlle professional handicap and the mile open professional events will be hotly contested, as a number of crack riders have been entered. The mile novice, quarter-mile amateur and the five-mile motor handicap will also be very interesting events. A band concert will be given at the track prior to the races. The tirst event will be run at 8:30. It is expected that a recordbreaking crowd will witness the races, niiich will mark the formal opening of the racing season in Indianapolis. Games in Tennis Tonrnnment. Owing to the bad weather yesterday but two series were played in the intercollegiate tennis tournament on the campus at Butler College.

Chief Contractor McDonald announced late yesterday that work may be resumed all along the New York rapid transit tunnel this morning. The conditions on which the men will go back to work, according to Mr. McDonald, will be practically the same, with possibly one or two exceptions, as those obtaining before the men went out.

It was stated, will be on the iron scale based on the puddling price. This Increase Is said to be from 10 to 15 per cent, and affects all classes of Iron workers. THE VEXEZl ELAX IIOCXDAUY. Mr. Cleveland Arraigns England for Her Refusal to Arbitrate. In the first of his two Century papers on "The Yen ?u lan Boundary Controversy," ex-President Cleveland thus criticis:? England's failure to arbitrate the case in lssi. Let us pause here for a moment's examination ef the surprising refusal of Great Britain to submit this difficulty tj arbitration, and the more surprising reasons presented for Its Justification. Th-? refusal was surprising because the eontroversy had reached such a stage that arbitration was evidently th only man( bv which It cculd be nettled consistently w'lth harmonious relations between the two countries. , , It was on this ground that enzueia rronosed arbitration; and she strongly ur;ed it on the further ground that inasmuch as the prohibition of her Constitution prevented the relinquishment, by treaty or voluntary act, of any part of the territory which her people and their government claimed to be indubitably Venezuelan, such a relinquishment would present no dimculties if it was in ooedience to h decree of a tribunal to which the question of ownership had been mutually submitted. . In giving her reasons for rejecting arbltration. Great Britain says in effect: The plan you urge for the utter and complete limlnaUoa of this constitutional prohibi
tionfor its expurgation and destruction so far as it is related to the pending dispute is objectionable, because we fear the prohibition thus eliminated, expunged, and destroyed will still be used as a pretext for disobedience to an award which, for the express purpose of avoiding this constitutional restraint, you have invited. The remaining objection interposed by Great Britain to the arbitration requested by Venezuela is based upon the fear that fin award ml,?ht be made in favor of the Venezuelan claim, in which case, "a largo and important territory which has for a long period been inhabited and occupied by her Majesty's subjects and treated as a part of the colony of British Guiana would be severed from the Queen's dominions." It first occurs to us that a contention may well be suspected of weakness when its supporters are unwilling to subject it to tho test of impartial arbitration. Certain inquiries are also pertinent in this connection. Who were the British subjects who had long occupied the territory that might through arbitration be sevored from the Queen's dominions? How many of them began this occupancy during the more than forty years that the territory had been steadily and notoriously disputed? DM they enter upon this territory with knowledge of the dispute and against the warning of the government to which they owed allegiance, or were they encouraged and invited to such entry by agencies of their government who had full notice of tho uncertainty of the British title? In one case, being themselves in tho wrong, they were entitled to no consideration: in the other, the question of loss and Indemnification should rest between them and their government, which had impliedly guaranteed them against disturbance. In any event, neither case presented a reason why Great Britain should take or possess the lands of Venezuela; nor did either case furnish an excuse for denying to Venezuela a fair and impartial adjudication of her disputed rights. By whom had this territory "been treated as a part of the colony of British Guiana?" Surely not by Venezuela. On the contrary, f.he had persistently claimed it as her own. and had "treated" it as her own as far as she could and dared. England alone had treated it as a part of British Guiana: her immense power had enabled her to eio this; and her own decrees seemed to promise greater advantages as against her weak adversary than arbitration could possibly assure.
