THE SENATE TARIFF BILL.
Sent to the Treasury Department for
Report as to Proposed Changes.

The committee on ways and means this morn
ing held its first meeting for several months for
the consideration Of the Senate amendments to
the tariff bill. According to expectation, after
very little discussion, the bill and amendments
were referred to the Treasury department in
order to secure computations as to the effect
ON the revenue Of the proposed changes in the
law. Inasmuch as calendar year has expired
since the bill was reported to the Senate, it is
possible that the former calculations, which
were based on the imports of the preceding
year, may be found inapplicable at this time.
There appears to be q wide difference of opin-
ion between the Senate finance committee and
the ways and means committee in regard to the
eject Of the Senate amendments. Nr. McAlil-
lin, member Of the last-named committee,
estimated that the bill a. reported to the Sem

revenue thirteen million dollars. Since that

Special Cable Dispatch to The EVENING STAR
LONDON, Jan. 29.-Justice North delivered
an important copyright decision yesterday, ef-
fectually disposing of the common notion that
what appears in newspaper is not subject to
copyright. At present the papers here nearly
all copy from each other. Justice North de-
cided that any article, even a compilation
which newspaper has taken the trouble to
prepare, may be protected. The proprietor Of
commercial paper copied from another the
names of persons having made deed arrange
ment with their creditors. The theft was de-
tected by the device of inserting a few bogus
names, which reappeared in the copy. 1t is
thought this decision will give great impetus
to news collectors. Only yesterday, at a meet
ing OF the newspaper proprietors of London,
MIR. Lawson, editor OF the Telegraph, COM
plains that on two occasions he had paid $500
for a telegram which was reproduced word for
word by others papers two hours afterward.
