TO HAUL WHISKY
IS THE REQUIREMENT
Decision in Dispensary Case Rendered
Saturday Morning.
MUST TAKE B. & B.’S GOODS
The Court Defines the Law as to Orig
inal Packages.
DECISION IS AN IMPORTANT ONE
The Kailroad Must Carry All Original
Packages When Offered for Ship
ment —Decision in Full.
Tlio Southern Railway Company will be
compelled to haul the goods of Blnthenthal
& Biekart, the Atlanta whisky dealers,
into South Carolina.
Judges Pardee and Newman, of the
United States court, handed down a de
cision in this famous dispensary case yes
terday morning enjoining the Southern
from refusing to haul such goods in fu
ture.
The decision is an important one in that
the original package law is involved. The
judges decided that liquors and wines in
bottles, packed in boxes and shipped in
carload lots were, under the law of South
Carolina, clearly admissible, and should
be handled by any railroad.
The ease has attracted considerable at
tention throughout the south, and the de
cision will largely affect the sale of At
lanta goods in South Carolina in the fu
ture.
The whisky company never had any trou
ble with the Southern in this r-spec: until
a few weeks ago, when the latter positive
ly refused to haul any more of their goods
into South Carolina.
Glenn. Slaton & Phillips, representing
Bluthenth.il & Biekart. tiled a petition in
tile t’. ited States court seeking to have
the railway enjoined from refusing to haul
the goo.ls of this company. Sensational
charges of collusion between the governor
of South Carolina and the .Southern road
were brought, tn which it was stated the
governor had threat.n.d to take away the
Sotit tern’s right to operate in the state
if I' .Id not stop h.iu’ ig goods in compe
tition with the state d spensary.
Tins., charges were frankly denied by
the Southern and Governor Ellerbe. The
answer of the Southern, which was pre
s-en'id by Dorsey, Brewster A Howell,
stat, d that the goods had not b- en pre
sented in th" form prescribed by the origi
nal package law as defined by the federal
court of South Carolina.
The case was w.irmly contested on both
sides, and th" following is tii" decision in
full;

feA If there is any reason why yon should use ( f

you take it to cure disease ; you want to be cured ,

Friedman, that the defendant was not at
the time In his right mind. He was In a
railroad wreck In the fur west several
years ago and received serious Injuries
about the head, from which be has never
quite recovered. He had to spend a while
in the state lunatic asylum of California
in consequence of tile blow he had receiv
ed on the forehead. His insanity, however,
has been cured, except that at tlmek
when he drinks whisky it comes back in a
temporary ami mild type. While under the
influence of whisky he committed the
crime of forgery for which Judge Felton
sent him to Jail.
Friedman Is a man of talent. He was
for four years a soloist In Gilmore’s fa
mous band, and when the Marine band
was in Macon last month playing for the
carnival festivities ho was offered a place
as saxophone soloist if he could get out
of jail. He lias written several pieces of
music, which were received well in the
music market. While he was in prison he
spent most of his time composing, and
one composition, entitled “Angelus,” has
been given great praise by artists. Fried-
I man first camo to this country in 1864, a
lad sixteen years old. He served a while
in the union army as a drummer boy and
since th. war has made a good living us
a musician. While traveling with Gilmore
lie crossed his f. ot under Ihe music racks

He has been presented with a purse by

PLAN TO DIVIDE BOLIVIA.
Reports of Combination of Chile, Pe
ru and Argentina Cause Talk.
Washington, November 12.—. Cabled re
ports from Valparaiso of the existence ot
a plan for a dreibund of Chile. Peru ami
Argentine, with the purpose of seizing and
dividing Bolivia, attracted considerable
attention in diplomatic circles here today,
but those who are well informed eoneern-
I ing South American affairs are Inclined to
question them.
One of the diplomats who should know,
if uny such scheme were in contemplation,
pronounced as baseless the idea of an alli
ance between Chile, Peru and Argentine
for the division of the territory of Bolivia.
I Argentine, it is pointed out. Ims absolutely
nothing at stake in the pending difficulties
between Peru. Bolivia and Chile over the
boundary lines, and. so far as known here,
there never lias been a suggestion for the
absorption of Bolivia by Chile and Peru.
The pending negotiations b"tw. en these
three latter countries for the delmite loca
tion of their boundary lines grew out of
the old war between Peru ami Bolivia on
the one hand and Chile on the other. By
the treaty of Ancon in ISS3, the Peruvian
previnces of Tacna and Arica, containing
the rich nitrate bids, which Chile hao
obtained possiession of. were to remain
In the hands of Chilo until IS'.il. when the
question of permanent ownership as be
tw.en Chile and Pern were to be decided
by popular vote. In case the provinces
should give their vote to Peru, the latter
country was to compensate Chile for their
less with 100,000,000 soles. Owing to tile
revolution in Peru in iS'JI-’tiS, it is explained,
this stipulation of the Ancon treaty never
was carried out; but. it is said, mgotiations
for a settlement are now In progress with
the prospects of an entirely peaceful sel
| tlement.
No treaty of peace between Bolivia and
I Chile was ma le until 1805. A truce was
| arranged in iss3, which left Peru in ixisses
i Sion of Bolivia's stret -h of se.lcoas; and
I two ports. Bolivia's great object ua*' io
. s,*cur<. again an outlet to the sea, and by
' t.'ie treaty of IS!>5 Chile agree ! to give Bo
livia a seaport, inasmuch as the sti'itch «if
teirltory taken from Bolivia, however, lu s
l» tween tlie provinces of Tacna and Arica
' taken from Peru, it was maniicstiy impus
i sible for Chile to surrender at. outlet
thiough tile old teiritory of Bolivia without
completely segregating ami dismembci ing
ber own territory.
It is tliis problem which lias delayed the
si tlb nient of tig whole question ami raised
Issues which liave produced molt or less
1< cling in eaeli of the countries.
The sltuat.un was further ecmplicated
■ by the contention of Boliviti '.bat tin. revo
lutionists in Chi!", at the ilmcof the ovi r
throw of Balm ceda, prc.mis'-d to c .!•• the
former I'.ruvian provinces of Arlen and
Tacna in veturn for Hie re ■ ignition of the
: belligerents by the Bolivian go\■■rnnient.
I Any individual pleilgis whieli may have
I Ini'll to 'llls "fleet. It is stated, have been
' piucti‘ illy repudiated by th< Chilean gov
i eminent. But it seems probable i'nat the
I final outcome will b" the cession to Bolivia
I of one of the ports al the nottlmrn . xti.-ni-
I ity of the territory taken front Peru in
I order that Chile may preserve the integrity
I of her terrlt'irv to the south.
At the Chilean legaiion a peaceful soln
; t oil of th" whole difficulty is anticipated
i The lotirm'V of the Chil'-an minister tn Bo
; I Vi;., Senor S. Holinas, to Santiago. Is ex
! plained on the probable theory that the
; government desirt d to confer with him in
I person relative to the tiego-latinn.- ho Is

I means the withdiaw tl of the ministt r and

’ PERU MUST PAY M'CORD CLAIM.
■ State Department Calls for a Quick
Adjustment of Award.
Washington, November 10—It is under
stood that th. d partmoul of st it. h:s
addressed another note to the Peruvian
minister. Dr. Egttiurin, politely bitt firmly
requesting asp < dy settlement of the claim
j for Indemnity of Victor 11. McCord, an
| American citizen who was ill-treated by the
| Peruvian officers while in charge of ra:l
--j rends during a rebellion.
The present Peruvian minister came to
tliis country with the expressed purpose of
iset tllng this claim and ha.s repeatedly
i sought to get the state department to te
i open the Investigation of the facts in the
■ case. The department, however, de.-llm d to
1 do this, being satisfied with the pros.uta-
I tion of the ease made through its own
mini tera and agents, and so has fallen
' back on the strong not.- sent last year by
I Mr Gluey, Insisting on a settlement of the
! claim.
It is held that nothing now remains but
to adjust the sum to b • paid McCord, and
$50,t00 is mentioned ns a proper figure, be
ing about, half of the original claim. More
over, it is believed that no opening is b ft
by the department for arbitration or any
thing short of an immediate acknowledge-

Spain's Reply Before the Cabinet.
Washington. November 'j.~ The full text
‘■"pain’s reply to the Woodford note was
read at the callin't meeting today. Its
‘ Lme is very pacific, ami instead of being
; at all warlike, was regarded by the cabi
net as very satisfactory - and as calculated
i to allay any fear of a hostile outbreak,
i Tlie eubinvt also gave consideration to the
1 ice bound Be’lng s. a whaling tieet. Two
■pi.ins have been decid-d upon—one to send
: tie- !!■ ar from S-aitl-. Wash., which can
not be go; ready lor two weeks, and on
to send th< Thras her. a wlialit ■ v
sei now at San Eram iseo. Tiii.s latter de

ol a telegram by Si"retary Long from .In
. .mini ado nt of the Mare Island navy yard.
. -| , : . her e ii b. pTov ion d it once
and sen: immediately on hi.*r mission.
It is stated that there is a very good snp
pß. of provisions at Point Barrow. and
another supply at Herschel Island, also
tiiii at has’ three vessels well supplied
witii provisions will winter in the Aret e.
Tin location of the relnd. er in Alaska,
which are want'd for transportation, h
not known, but it is believed a supp y can
be obtained.
Spain's Reply Is Satisfactory.
Washington, November 10. It is stated
on good authority that Premier Sajasta’s
reply to Minister Woodford's not", the
' full text of which was read at yesterday's
cabinet m. eting. Is eminently satisfactory
to this government.
In it tile Spanish ministry pledges itself
to correct the tihu-'cs of power in Cuba
which was the subject of so much com-
I plaint during the Wcyler administration,
and gives assurance of its friendly f. . ling
toward the American people. It accepts
our good offices in its efforts to restore
ponce in Cuba and in a perfectly respect
ful .and friendly spirit asks this govern
ment, so far as possible, to restrain I
. urgent sympathizers in the Lnib d
States from giving materia! aid to the
em niies of Spain in Cuba.
The reply intimates that but for the as
sistance that has been given them by lili-
I busters from the I’niied Stales peace would
i have been re.storid long ago.
i The reply. 1: is stated, does not contain
J a sentence that could give, offense or be
| construed into an expression ot an un
i friendly purpose or feeling against the
I government of the pnltcd States. On the
contrary, the not. is stated to be dist mdiy
coneiiiatorv intone, although insisting upon
I til. right and duty of Spain to put down
i an armed insurrection within its own terri
i tory „ . , •
I I’he reply’ has made a favorable ;mpres-
I pion upon President McKinley ami the
1 members of the cabinet and it Is not un
' pk. l" that one of the features of his forth-
I coming mo-sage to congress will be a dis
l <mss OU of the Cuban situation, from which
ijt 11 appear that there is nothing in the
I situation to justify at present interference
! on the part of the I'niied Staes.

BOTH SIDES EXPECTED TO WIN
Chances Seemed To Favor Harvard,
but Yale Stood Firm.
Cambridge, Mass., November 13.—Harvard
end Yale played euch other to a titiuidvt'll
tills afternoon on Soldiers' field.
For two thrilling in ms the sturdy elevens
sttuggled over (he wbl'e-lined grldlion
def i < rufely disputing every Inch of terri
tory and vainly essaying to crass the
ccvoted goal line. The teams had each a
stn.ng defense and weak ground-gaining
povtrs, and the logical outcome of the
contest was that neither side scored.
'i'he game was disappointing. Each eleven
was confident of victory, and the expecta
tions of neither wt/re realiz'd. Harvard
should have won; she had more possibil
ities than her rival, ami she had e inabilities
which site did not employ to the limit.
Yale was but onee within scoring distance
of the Harvard goal, but when Harvard
put iter to tiie test she was not found
wanting, and Ity hvr resolute ami determin
ed defense prevented the crimson from do
ing what Brown, West Point. Carlisle mid
Chicago had already accomplished.
It was as stubborn and bitter it football
battle as was ever fought. Each play
brought every bit of spirit anti power possi
ble into its Inception, anti it took tiie con
centrated efforts of eleven men to stop it.
Both teams fought like men det-rrniried
that their oppom nts should not gain an
inch, and although the contest lacked the
football pyrotechnics anti the dramatic in
cidents of the old-time games, it was a.
hard tight from first to last.
The game was unusually devoid of long,
brilliant runs and hair-raising tackles, but
tiie enormous crowd was kept at the in
tt nsest. pitch of .excitement over the final
outcome.

ease t'. be curable beyond a doubt, in any
climate, .".n't has on tile in his American
