era] courts; and, ab a condition of trans-
acting business in Minnesota, it depiives
the foreign corporatiun of constitutional
privilege by declaring it domestic, if it
remains in the state sixty days after the
passage of the act. The act is an attempt
to oust the jurisdiction of the federal
courts and compel a foreign corporation,
without an election in fact, to become a
citizen of the state, and force it to aban
don the benefit contemplated by the fee
eral constitution.— Bradstrects.
TnE subject of the restriction or regu
lation of foreign immigration has leen
occupying the attention of our legislators
during the recess. Several measures
dealing with the subject have already
been introduced and still others may be
looked for. One of these measures, in
troduced by Senator Farwell, prohibits
the immigration of convicts and paupers,
idiots and insane persons. Another bill,
introduced by Senator Morrill, is do
signed to regulate immigration. It re
quires American consuls, upon applica-
tion, to inquire about and verify to the
moral character and ability to earn a sup
port of intending immigrants, and levies
a duty of $3 per head upon foreigners not
having a certificate. Another measure
of a cognate kind is a bill introduced by
Senator Stanford, which requires ten
years' residence before foreigners can de
clare their intention to become citizens
of the United States, except in the case
of those arriving before the age of 21
years, when a residence of six years can
be required. The materials for a ver
interesting discussion before congress
will be found in the immigration ques
tion in the form which it is now assum-
ing.—Exchange.

VALUATION OF IMPORTS.
Hip i
S&Ky ■
The senate committee on finance or-
dered the sub-committee's bill on under-
valuations to be favorably reported to
the senate. Its main features have been
made public from time to time. It is a
measure jf twenty odd sections and
practically a revision and codification of
the system of invoice, entry, appraisment
and assessments of imports. It will cre-
ate a tribunal ef nine general appraisers,
in dignity and salary equal to the nine
circuit judges of the United States.
Their appointmen) is to be by the presi-
dent and confirmed by the senate. It is
provided that no more than five of the
nine shall be of the same political party
at one time. Three are to be stationed in
New ^ ork, and are to be constantly in
session. The other six will be stationed
as the secretary of the treasury may di
rect. It will be their duty to supervise
&nd determine the classification and rates
of customs duty, as well as the apprais
ment of values. The office of merchant
appraisers is abolished. If the local and
general appraiser agree, their judgment
is final; and if they disagree, the question
will be referred to the New York board.
This decision will be final.
Oaths and fees are to be abolished, and
the merchant's declaration may be made
before a notary public or other officer de-
signated by the secretary of the treasury.
The warehousing period is extended from
one to three years. The rate of duty
will be uniform for the same class of
goods to all importers. To secure abso-
lute uniformity in the rating of goods the
publication of the decisions of the various
local and general appraisers is ordered.
As important decision has been ren-
dered by Judge Nelson, of the United
States circuit court at St. Paul, in the
case of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railway company vs. the Railway
Commissioners of the state of Minnesota.
The complainants filed a bill in equity to
restrain the commissioners from enforc-
ing their rate for switching charges in
Minneapolis. The commissioners con-
tended that the federal courts had no ju-
risdiction, inasmuch as a state law pass-
ed in 1885 made it obligatory upon do-
mestic corporations to sue in the state
courts. Upon the question of jurisdic-
tion the court decided against the claim
of the commissioners, but it held that
while a corporation is a citizen of the
state in which it is created, it is not en-
titled to recognition of absolute right in
other states, and conditions not incon-
sistent with the constitution of the Uni-
ted States can be imposed by another
state which recognizes it. But its richt
to sue in the federal courts depends alone
upon the federal constitution and laws
passed in pursuance thereof, and no state
law can restrict it. The purpose of this
state law of 1885 was manifestly to in-
terfere with the jurisdiction of the fed- t
The Latest Idiocy,
Cats are the favorite pets at present,
and thiscaprice dates from Lnclion, where
French women were carrying little kittcus
about during the late season. They are
now carried about in a little bahut cu the
top of the bustle, and will, it is prophe-
sied, occupy the inside of the big muffs
that are about to appear. The eccentric
Princess Isabeaude Beauvoishas much
t» do with this new notion. In her pockct
there is usually a tiny kitten, and in her
muff—carried all through the fall, and
decorated with artificial flowers and rib-
bons—there is one, often more than one,
pug or pup of some kind, for the accom-
modation of which animal it is very evi-
dent that the muff is taken about,—Do-

Borne of the imported India shawl wraps

is growing in favor among the women of
Vanity Pair, with some of whom it may be a
necessity.
Some gentlemen have revived the fob for
evening drees, and the jewelers have put
forth some new designs described as "quiet
and elegant." v
It looks now as if buttoned shoes for men
had had their day, and that the laced foot-
wear would "obtain" more extensively even
than heretofore.
The Derby hat is by no means crowded out
of fashionable sight by the square top affair,
to which the middle aged man can scarcely
roconcilo himself.
Men's collars are high again and open
about half an inch in front. It i3 announced
that it is intended they should be seen above
the overcoat collar.
