Federal Judge Denies Mail Interference Injunction
Judge Amos Thayer of the United States Circuit Court refused to issue an injunction in the case of S A L Kelly and S A L Welter, American School of Magnetic Healing, vs J M McAnnulty postmaster of Nevada Mo. The motion sought to stop McAnnulty from intercepting mail to the school alleging fraud. The postmaster general’s order to stop all mail to the senders was questioned, with Thayer ruling federal courts lack jurisdiction and that the postmaster general acts within the limits of congressional authority in this quasi judicial power. A drug store ad for Ballard's Horehound Scrap appears at the end.

Empress With The Boxers and European Powers
London in June reports a general belief that the dismissal of Prince Ching and purge of the Yamen moderates has shifted support to the Boxers. Western powers may cooperate to restore order in Pekin, with Talleyrand era allies reappearing. A 2,000 marine force may be insufficient if Pekin falls to insurgents. The Russians may join a European mandate, with English concerns echoed in Egypt. Jefferson City case follows.
