The Htate Liquor league of Pennsylvania
will meet at Allentown, en July 12, when
the matter will coma up for aTatislderatleu.
Attorney Kinanuel Kurlti, who lepreeenta
the League, In speaking of the proposed ac
tion saya :
We have already an opinion by llnnjatuln
Harris llrewsterte the tlltct that thu ant as
preKisnl en Ita Unsl pa-sage In the Heuse
waa unconstitutional, and we believe that Uia
Senate amendment bavn made It even worse
In tbat leaped. There la pending a rule,
which will ha heard In the old court of quarter
sonslens te day, te determine whether the act,
without reward le tbu unntlttillnallly, will
go Inte i licet the first Monday In June, or
whether Ita operation aball be iotpened
under the proviso In the set until the
llrst day or July. It Is a trlllu Inconsist
ent In teitard te thn Hme when It shall
take ellacL It provides that Imme
diately after Ita passage certain things
shall I mi done In outer temqiilie the right te
sell liquor; then thiire is a ptovlse that
license under previous law sliaU net b
taken mil allnr tlie 3(Hhel Juua We tK'lluve
of course, thai the oeu verse el that I true
and tbat lleensea csn be taken out under the
previous law until the .10th day of June. A
rule ha been taken by Vail, counsel for tlie
Law slid Order society, against the clerk of
the court n quarter sessions te restrain him
from atllxlng his seal te a license applied ler
by Mr. McAually, the contention being that
aa Mr. Mclnaliy applied for hi II
cense alter th'i passage of the high li
cense law be la bound te apply tn
the court of quarter sessions Instead of tn the
county commissioners, and le ,y f.VW In
stead of e() That rule will be contested by
ex-Judgu Klceck and ex-Attorney General
Cawldy, representing the clerk of quarter
sessions ; tiy Mr, ituuhaiu, representing the
Liquor Dusters' association ; by Mr. Hhlelds,
representing the Uerman Tavern Keepera'
association, and by myself, representing the
Hetel and 8iloen'Keoier' union.
14 What are the main points upon which
the liquor men expect te base the proposed
action in their endeavor te show thu high
llmiise law te be unconstitutional ?" waa
asked.
q here are three principal point. In the
llrst place we contend that It Is an act for the
ral.lug of revenue by taxation. As an evi
dence of that a part of thu taxei are applied
for specific puriieica. We alie contend that
It Is net iinilerni In Ita applicability te the
cltlrnua of this state, becauiu a saloon-keeper
In l'alladelphla would have le pay MX) for
his license, while a man living In a borough
would have ail opi-ertunlty of soiling the
same quantity of liquor under precisely the
same circumstauces ler f 100. It also re onsets
special legislation, which Is forbidden by the
new constitution, and It abridges the liberty
of a citizen, wins 1 I'll own house, might
desire te glke away or furnish te friends or
anybody who should call te see him liquor
of any kind.
II Ihe llrst point be well taken there will be
no need of going further, for should It be de
cided tbat the aim of the law la the collection
el a tax It will nullity It, for tbe act must
nave but one purpose If, a la claimed, the
tax be merely Incidental, then It must be
uniform lu Ita operation in every part of the
state.
A prominent brewer slated yesterday that
a peel amounting te between tiu.uue and (15, (15, (15,
oue had been contributed by the beer
Itrewera' association te place tbe question et
tbe constitutionality of the high lysuse law
before Iheaupruiue court, first by obtaining
tee opinions el se era! couatltutleual lawyers,
and then, If favorable, te proceed with tt In
tbeaupreuiecriurt. The brewera claim that
llie law makes taxation unequal, aud that It
is eutlrely eppuied te llie principle el liberty
te the citizen. Kx-Seuanir lluikalew and
aeteral ether attorneys will be consulted. It
Is expected that tbe proem-dings will occupy
at least a year. In Um meantime the
license feu will have te be uiil. If the de
cision sought should prove favorable the
money thus iald would hate te be relunded.

citement ever a cruel, heartless, atrocious
crime oeiurnltted by a young nam named
Jehn Klpp, age about Ul years, and who
resides near the same little hamlet, It ap
pears that Mlai Minnie Itirnbart, aged 10
years, a beautiful daughter of Ames Ilarn
hart, a blacksmith, was amusing herself by
gathering flower In the field near her
home. It was then thv. ibl wretch ap
proached thla I litis girl, net yet In her teens,
and committed tbe awful deed of rape.
The little girl fought bard for her liberty,
having scratched hi f!s, hand and arms
terribly, but te no avail, a the brute strength
of the man overewTed her, who choked
her that her face and neck were swollen snd
thu accomplished his purpose, afterwards
fleeing ler refuge.
Hhe, exhausted el strnngtta and almost
prostrate, managed te reach home. Minnie
presented a pitiable scene, weeping bitterly
and then revealed the true facta of this awful
crime.
Her mother proceeded at once te inform
her buaband, who works a abort distance
away, of this brutal outrage, lie Immedl
ately, In a frenzy, began search for Klpp, but
net finding hi in be swore out a warrant ter

Kev. a F. Allemsn, I). D , lately elected
pastor of Ht Jehn Lutheran church,
preached his Initial sermon Hunday morning
In the presence of a large congregation. Uls
text waa the iWlh verse of the 1st chspter of
HU Paul's Epistle te the Coleaslana j "Whom
we preach, warning every man and teaching
every man tn all wisdom ; tbat we may
present every m in perfect in Christ Jesus."
The theme of the sermon waa tbe manner
and end of tbe Christian ministry a deduced
from tbe text ; and tbe reverend preacher
presented as a pledge of bis own ministry
here In Laucaster this conception of the
Chrtstlau nilulatry. He came here te preach
the gospel from tbe pulpit aud te work among
tbe congregation ; te commend tbe zealous
workers, te encourage the weak and loge
out alter these who had strayed away.
Dr. Alleniau is a man of One presence, a
rapid speaker with a pleasant voice and
possesses decided oratorical ability. Uls
sermon was written In well chosen words,
and waa read without In anywise Interfering
with igernu gesticulation and proper
elocutionary ellec'.
Hunday eeutug Dr. Allemsn preached
from the text found in the llth and 1Mb
verses et the -'ith chapter of Matthew: " Fer
the Kingdom el Heaven Is aa a man traveling
Inte a far country, who called his own ser
vants and dellcrrd unto them his goods.
And unto one he gae tle talents, te another
two and te another one; te eiery man ac
cording V his scleral ability, and straight
way took tils Journey. " The theme of tbe
discourse was the duty of every member of
the church te work for the church, aud net te
diqiend upon another te de work that be
should de himself. Ka-h has bis appointed
sphere of duty ; if be bae only one talent he
mustuei bury it but use It ler tbe master of the
" house, " which Is the church. The reverend
sjieaker made a very pretty comparison be
tween a well regulated household with Its
steward and servants and laborers, and the
church with Us minister, elders, deacons and
laymen ; aud enforced In strong laeguage
tbe necessity of each and all te work.

In New Yerk, Granville P. Hawea, the
referee in the suit of Sephia L. Mattern, who
Is native et Lsncsiter, against Kuitell Sage,
announced his decision Haturday In eight
type-written pages of legal cap. The decision
Isarevlew of tbe action, a digest of the testi
mony, and an opinion en lbs law and ihe
facts. lis dismisses the complaint witn
oeits. Uls sta'.eaient of the case Is as fol fel
lows :
Ihe action was commenced May It), 1&95,
originally te rocevor the value of a Metre;,
tan elevated railroad bend, which tbe plain
till charged, was converted hy the defendant
Issue was Joined J line 10, 1335, bejeen thefay
of hearing, March S, IS37, the complaint was
amended by consent, and the action was
changed tn an action ter au accounting. The
plalntllf ellered In evidence tbe defendant's
bill of particulars, and surcharged three Items:
100 shares of Wab.sh common stock, pur
chased March 15, 1331: llMalurtsolMlsseUrl,
Kansas and Texas stock, purchased June 15,
1331, and the Metropolitan railroad bend be be be
loeo relerred te. As te these Items It Is con
ceded tbat the Wabash stock was purchased
under plalntill'a directions, but she charges
that she ordered It Beld but that defendant
failed te execute the order, and became liable
ou account thereof. Hhe also atlegns tbat sbs
never ordered the purchase of the Kansas aud
Texas stock, and should net be held liable
ler any less arising from it; and aa te the
bend or stock she left It rer safe keeping, and
net as a margin, se that thedelendant became
liable ter Its highest value, lu view et tbe ract
tbat It had tieeii sold.
The reteree tlien gee en te say that the
plalntilt and doiendant were the only wit
nesses examined touching the vital questions
et the case, find that their evidence Is ab o e
lutely contradictory. The complainant was
apparently net used te speculations, which
might acceuut Ter her net having any mem
oranda or record of her stock transactions.
The defendant seems te be a speculator in
stocks, and although tie claims net te be a
commission broker it is clear that se far as
this transaction Is concerntd be acted as such
slid is subject te all the rules governing that
business. About me -"J. 11 01 aiay, issu, ne
bad au Interview with the plalutltl and
agreed te buy, and did buy for her, fitly
shares el Krle stock. The plaintiff furnished
no margin wnatever arid the defendant took
all the responsibility ofle a course which
Is unusual with brokers I am Informed, and
which certainly gives color te tbe defen
danl'sstatement tbat he purchased the stock
for her from sympathy and te assist her
in supporting herself.
A long review of tbe stock transaction fol fel
lows, showing dealings in 1,000 shares el
stock by Hagu ler Miss Mattern, and the tak
ing or broths by her te the amount of (1,140.
The only deposits credited accounts are (400
lu cash and the (1,000 bend referred te. The
decision ceutlnues :
In vie wet tbe conceded tact tbat plaintiff
was financially Irresponsible, I think it must
be admitted that tbe deleudant'a version
touching tbu character of tbe transaction and
the mom ea which actuated hlui is correct,
especially if measured by tbe usages tbat
commonly prevail In tbe stock market and
among brokers In general, although, aa a
class, tbey are alleged te be most liberal tn
their dealings with their customers. 1 refer
te tins phase 01 tne ease wun some emphasis,
becxuaeit baa, In my opinion, ery strong
weight in the decision of the question at
issue, ine prouaeiiiiies weuiu ee largely in
fluenced by the determination of thla
pr'llmiuary question, fei it sol vus many of
tbe apparent inconsistencies of the case.
One of the inconsistencies in tbe case, as
iwlnted out by Keferee Hawea, la tbe failure
of Miss Mattern te make seme et tbe points
or the aineuded complaint In relation te tbe
Wabash and tbe Kansas and Texas stocks
either In making her demand upon Mr. Hage
or In her original complaint in the action. In
the tlrt demand made by her letter or April
10, 1335, the referee thinks this neglect might
lainy be attributed te a reliance "upon me
alleged premise of Mr. Hage tbat she should
sutler no less, but such emission is Inexpli
cable when open hostility was established by
litigation." The referee dismisses the mat
ter or the Metropolitan bend, ou the under
standing that It was only worth f-JO, as net
worthy or any spiclal controversy. But lie
does net leave any question as te bis views
en the subject, aud ndd that the plalutllfs
ewu loiter shows that thedhqioaitien el it was
as Intended.
Anether conclusion reached by the releree,
aud tlitly statad is :
A careful examination or the bill or par
ticulars ami or the letters which passed be
tween tbe parties, has established tn my
mind a very linn conviction that thu account
Is correct as It new stands.
