Us TOBACCO IN SUPREME COURT Indbiduftl States, It is Held, Hue Power to Eegulatfl Sale of Weed. IS AN ARTICLE OF COMMERCE WITHIN LAW Justice nrnrrn In Handing Dorrn Ma- Jorltr Opinion Hayu No Other Veg etable lias Contributed So Much to Comfort of Mankind. WASHINGTON, Nov. 19. The United States supremo court today rendered an opinion In tho caio of William It. Austin against the State of Tennessee, Involving the validity of tho state law regulating the salo of clgarottes. The law Is attacked as an Infringement of tho rights of con gress to regulate Interstate commerce. Tho Tcnnesseo supremo court upheld the law and today's decision sustained that opinion, though not without disapproval of soma of the positions taken, and then upon a very narrow margin, four of the nlno members Joining in n dissenting opinion and another member of tho court (Justice wmte) placing nis assent upon grounds different from tlioso nnnounccu oy Justice Drown, who handed down the opinion. The case grew out of the Importation of cigarettes Into Tennessee from North Caro- una. They wcro taken into too state in tho ordinary bIio cigarette packages. about two by four Inches, and theso pack- ages wcro loosoly thrown into uaiKcis which wore uncovered. Tho claim was mado that theso cigarette packages wcro what Is known to tho law as original packages, but without clearly defining an original packago tho court held that It was clear that such packages could not be considered. Justico Drown In passing upon me caso saiu mat ine pacxages were obviously mado up with tho view of evading tho law, and ns ho spoko ho held ono of the llttlo clgarotto cases up to the view of his auditors. On this point tho decision of tho stato court to tho effect that tho packages wero not original was fully con firmed. On another phaso of tho caso the state court was not so fully endorsed. The Tcnncssoo court hold that cigarettes nro not an article of commerce. With this vlow Justico Drown took Issue nnd ho delivered qulto a dissertation upon tho subject. Whatever Is nn object of barter and salo Is, ho said, an article of com merce and must bo so recognized. To bacco has been such an artlclo for 400 years. It bad been mado the subjoct of taxation, nnd, lndcod, had becomo moro widely scattered than any other vegetable. He addud that no other vegotablo has con tributed so much to tho comfort and solaco of the human race. This being the case. It wa" entirely beyond bounds to say that tobacco was not an artlclo or commerce might bo the case, remarked tnat tnis claim was of comparatively recent origin. Still he hold that cigarettes are as much n subject of state regulation ns Is liquor and ho further held that while no stato law could prohibit Importation In original packages It was entlroly competent for a legislature to rcgulato the salo because of general belief In the deleterious effect of tho article, Thoro was a dissenting opinion by Justico uniras. in wnicn unioi justice j uncr nna Justices Drewer nnd Peckhatn Joined. They based their dlssont on the theory that con- sress has exclusive control of Interstate commerce, .nunuAi iiNfj, ja., hot. xv. juugo uran- nan, in tho district court, has granted a temporary Injunction restraining Musca tlno county from collecting the 1300 state mulct tax from local dealers in cigarettes. The Amorlcan Tobacco company has backed local dealers In disregarding tho anti- clgaretto law, claiming that It Interfered with tho Interstate coinmcrco law. A test caso Is now pending.

It is planned to forestall tho steamship servlco of the Great Northern to Yokohama and Hong Kong by shorten ing tho time with the present Hue of express steamers nnd eventually to sup plant these with n new lino of ships. Tho Canadian Pacific: steamers do not now actually call at tho port of Victoria, approaching no nearer to that city than the quarantine station, ten miles distant. Mulls and passengers for Victoria are landed from tno quarantine cation ny n lighter. All tins is unsatisfactory to tho peon torta, necessitating delays And people of Vic- anu occupies tlmo without urovlntr of ereat financial ad vantage to the Canadian Pacific. As it does not ut nil satisfy tho Victorians, they glvo no freight or passenger triune to tho Em presses which can conveniently be placed with any other transpacific line. As soon as tho new lino of tho Great Northern steamers Is placed on the Oriental run, as Victoria will bo a regular port of cull, every Victorian passenger nnd every pound of freight controlled In that city will, beyond doubt, go to tho American line. This will nffard tho Empresses un additional reason for adopting tho northern route. This will cuuso them to bo run from Vancouver up tho gulf of Georgia nnd directly through Queen Charlotte sound, from whence they will run out Into the Pnclllc, making the start thus far on tho trip as quickly as It they wero running down to Victoria nnd being thlrty-flvo miles farther on their routo In tho samo time.

Tho question of tho Canadian Pacific winter traffic, which tho company threatened to tako to Boston unless tho government gave tho road certain prlvllogos accorded to other roads, has been sottled. After negotiations with tho premier nnd other members of the cabi net tho Canndlan Pacific report announces Us decision to tako Us export traffic to the port of St. John during tho coming winter. BOSTON, Nov. 19. Tho decision of the Canadian Pacific railroad not to transfer Us export grain traulo to Boston, was not unexpected In this city. The Issue has been a scinl-polltlcal one, In some parts of Canada, particularly In St. John, whero both Bides In tho recent elections used tho export traffic In their own Interest. Tho Intercolonial road, which Is owned by tho government, Is a competitor of the Gonad inn rnclQc from Montreal eastward, and It has traffic arrangements with tho Grand Trunk, which tbo Canadian Paclflo officials dccldnd was unfair to tbem. During the ast three yearn tho Canadian Pacific road has dono an Immenso business in hauling grain to St. John, but nearly all Of the cars have been returned to Montreal empty, which partially offset what otherwise would have been unusual earnings. Tho road claimed that the Intercolonial should havo transferred somo of Us through wostbound freight to It Instead of routing It over tho Grand Trunk. The minister of railways, Mr. Blair, was blamed for theso conditions and during the election tho Canadian Paci fic management threatened to transfer tho grain traffic to Boston, but It Is thought that this threat was used considerably ns a means of Inducing Blair to grant the de sired concession.
