WASHINGTON, May 23.-Secretary Win

decision in the wOrsted controversy in
favor of the higher rate of duty demanded
by the WOODEN manufacturers. The deci-
sion will probably be made next week. The
matter is now before Colonel Hepburn the
solicitor of the treasury, for his opinion
and his views are well known to accord
with those of the wooden manufacturers.
He holds that the worsteds which have
caused the controversy are for all practical
purposes wOolens and ought to be so classi-
fed. The making of them in the way they
are made he considers nothing more than

it should be, but to bolster himself up in
this way by the opinions of his law officer

be a signal for a prompt appeal to the

He Wants to Make Acknowledgement Miller a
Supreme Judge, But Waivers.


Supreme Judge, But Waivers.
Especial to THE HERALD.-Examiner dispatch
WAsHINGToN, May 23.-The President is
said to be wavering little in his purpose
to promote Attorney General Miller to a
seat on the supreme bench. Mr.. Miller
would like the place, and it would please
the President to crafty him, but there are
several considerations that make him hest
tate. One of the principal of these is said
to be the claims of Judge Woods, of the
federal court at Indianapolis, for considera-
ton. His friends throughout the state claim
for him that he deserves the appointment on
the supreme bench because of his eminent
fitness for the place and on account of his
party standing. 1t is said that it will be
difficult for the President to overlook this
claim, ana he is hesitating between the
two men. He fears that the appointment
of Miller might look as if there had been a
trade in the first instance, with the under
standing when Miller first went into the
department of Justice that he was to stay
there but short while and then so on to
the supreme bench.
