President Cleve land to Pope Leo The report as adopted by a vote of nineteen to ten is as follows: n7ierea The President of the United States has sent to Pope Leo as a jubilee aift a copy cf the Constitution of the United States and Jl'irrwiA Certain prominent official representa tives of Pope Leo are publielv interpreting this un precedented act of the President as indicative of fils favorable regard for the Romish hierarchy and as we have reason to believe that it whs devised and suggested by scheming Jesuits who have al ways been the intolerant enemies of both civil and religious liberty therefore be it Rcsolrrrt That the meeting of the Mellic dlst Episcopal Church in Baltimore hereby disclaims all sympathy with or concurrence in the act of the Presklent of the United States performed in commemoration of the golden jubilee Jtcseirrd we enter our solemn protest against this new departure of the President iu making such marked official recognition of a re ligious hierarchy claiming also temporal sover eignt I'fiviived That we regard the act of the Presi dent as a political discourtesy if not offense to King Humbert whose sovereignty over a unitied Italy the Pol both antagonizes and denies lb iolrei That in making the foregoing protest we disavow all feeline of animositv towards or I desire to abridge either the political or religious i rights

Missouri This is the famous Maxwell Preller murder case Brooks or Maxwell the plaintiff in error is now in prison in rhe City of St Louis under sentence of death for the murder of Arthur Preller in April lt85 The case was brought to this court upon a writ of error to the Supreme Court of Missouri and the deci sion here is upon a motion made by the Attornev eneral of that State to dismiss for want of jurisdiction This court is unable after a careful examination of the record to find that the plaintiff in enor has been de prived of any right privilege or immunity guaranteed to him bv tho Constitution of theUnited States an 1 the motion to dismiss for want of jurisdiction is therefore grouted The decision was announced by Chief Justice Waite and its effect is to aflirm the sentence of death pronounced by the State court The opinion of Chief Justice "Waite says that in Spies vs tbo State of Illinois it was held that to give this court jurisdiction under sec tion 70(t of the revised statutes of a denial by a State court of any title right privilege or immunity claimed under the Con stitution or any treaty or statute of the United States it must oh the record that such right title privilege or immunity was set up or at the proper time in the" proper way To be reviewable here the decision must bo against the right so set up or claimed Applying that rule to this case we find that at the trial no title rigkt privilege or immunity was specially set up or claimed under the Constitution laws or treaties of the United States The assignments of errors which relate to the rulings of the court fail entirely to present any question of ederal law for our consideration MAXWELL WEAKENS St Louis January 2 3 The decision to day in the United States Supreme Court in the case of Hugh
