WAShINGTON , iiay 18.-The supreme
court of the United States decided today In
vhsat Is known as the "Jim Crow" car case
of Plessy agalns F'crguson. that the statute
of L3uisiana requiring railroad companle to
uppiy epsrate coaches for white anti colored
persons itt constitutional , affirming the do-
Cion of the Court below. Justice hirown
delivered the opinion. Jutfce Ilarhan die-
soited ,
Ju.tlceWhlto handed down the opnlon of
the court In the care of the Singer Sewing
machine trademark. The judgment of the
court below. the circuit court for the north-
era district of Illinois , which as against
the Singer company , was roveraed. The
supreme court held that others using the
tiamo "Singer" as a trademark should show
thin source of manufacture.
This case lnvolveil a conflict betneon the
Singer Manilfarttirlng company and the Juno
Mantifacturing company. The action wee begun -
gun by the Singer ManufacturIng company to
rcatrain the Juno company from making
spwInm machines and lnbelin them
with time name of "Singer" under the claim
that the name which generally attacimeil to
time machmiiies made by the Singer company
had boconio a trade mark and hence that the
1250 of the nanso by another company was In
the nature of an Infringement ,
Jutic White , in delivering the opinion of
the court , held that the right to use a name
on articlc.'i Inantlfactureil expired with tle *
patents on those articies , but others itsimig
a natmie , as in this case , lutist show the
urco of manufacture. The case wa
therefore raver9od awl the district court was
directed to enter a decree In accordance with
thI3 opinien.
Justice harlan delivered the qpinlon of tIme
stipremo court In the case 'of Pennington
agsinst time tate of Georgia , involving tile
constitutionality of the state law prohibit-
log the running of freight ears in Georgia
on Sunday. The opinion held time law to ho
valid.
Justice Harlan said the legislature hind a
right to designate a day of the week when
nil labor should be sutmimended and it could
not ho claimed that the working day had
been mIlgmmated. Time state law was mint ,
lie eaid , directed at Interstate commerce ,
but was misemely a rule of civil conduct and it
011st * ho respected until superseded by seine
national law Itl which it WB in conflict.
hence tIme decision of the supreme court was
alllrmod. The duet justice and Justice
White dlrsented , on the groumid that the law
conflicts with tIme interstate commerce law.
Time supreme court , in the case of Martha
Ilarmiltz against John 14. Beverly , In error to
the suplemno court of Kansas , revorsmI the
decision of the lower court. The opinion
was delivered by Justice Shiras. This case
was brought on a note for $1,500 and interest ,
but Its decision Involves the constitutionality
of tlio mortgage redemption law of Kansas
of 1893 , and is far reaching in effect. Time
case was twice heard in the atate supreme
court , The opinion In the last hearing was In
flovorly's favor , holding tIme act in question
to be "applicable and. valid in case of contracts -
tracts made before and after its passage. "
Time suprenme court reversed this deci.eion ,
holding that no law was valid which proscribed -
scribed the mode of enforcing a contract in
existence when the law was enacted.

SENATOR lULL OBJECTS.
Time proposed imuqtmiry into alleged election

proceed to time Immediate consideration of time
subject. Mr. 11111 , democrat of Now York ,
aaiti other business imad the rigimt of way , amid

Mr. Cimandier , author of time resolution of

Mr. Alien argued that the case of time ai-
igcd Alabama irregularitlea was omie of the
highest privilege. lie disclaimed , however ,
any derlro to prosecute any inquiry which
would quention tlmo rlgimt of Mr. mlorgan , demis-
ocrat of Aimsbaimua , to imis seat.
Mr. Faulkner , dcmocrat of W'ost Virginia ,
interjected the remark that this disclaimer
of any purpose to question time right of Mr.
Morgan to his seat at once took trans the
question any privileged character it migiut
possess.
Mr. Mien resionded sarcastically that he
would nut go so far as to term thmimm suges-
ton ! "pottifogglng , " yet lie knew it wonimi
not deceive time Intelligence of tIme enate.
Mr. Alien added that in order to relieve time
presiding officer , Vice l'resident Stevenson ,
from ruhiimg on the question of privilege , hue
would move to take up time roeolumtion. Thia
precipitated an umnexpcctemh vote. 'rime motion
