A Decision on Sorted Woods.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-The board OF gen
eral appraisers to-day rendered an import
ant decision on the construction OF para
graph lS3 of the new tariff act, which re
Gently became the subject of controversy
between the wool growers of Ohio and the
carpet manufacturers of New England.
Their opinion is tina: the sorting classes"
referred to in paragraph 1S3 apply to all
woods, including wool of the third class.
Sorting is herein in effect defined by the
statute TO be the process OF separation
which Increases in value imported wool by
the rejection of part of tie original
fleece. The phrase ''shall be twice
subject to the duty to which 1t wool or
hair would be otherwise subjected" means
that the duty on sorted woods (wheh sep
arated otherwise than as to color ana in
creased in value, shall be liable TO twice
the duty to which fleece in unsorted condi-
ton shall be liable. The sorting" or man
ipulstion of woods made with intent to
evade lawful duties is fraud on the law,
and subjects merchandise TO penal dc ties
imposed. The board reverses the collect
or's decision in both of the cases under
consideration.

lnyan County. Idaho. Probate Judgeship

SuosHoNE, Idaho, Aug. A Especial tele-
gram to TIE HERALD. The contest case
of Hampton VS.. Dilley for the probate
judgeship of Logan county, now being
heard before Judge c. Stockslager in Hal
ley in cham bers, took turn for Hampton
to-day, who at first was thrown out of
court, but began again on new tactics. De-
PENDANT answered to complaint, and
plaintiff demurred 10 answer and was sus-
tanned to-day and Dilley given till Wednes-
day at 10 a. m. to file an answer. This is a
victory for Hampton who smiles at his first
luck since the contest began. Dilley says
he will carry the matter to higher courts
If necessary.
This is the case arising out of the Gre
ating of Lincoln county by the last legisla-
ture Hampton was last fall elected pro-
bate Judge and when Lincoln county was
created out of Logan county, Hampton was
appointed probate judge, accepted and
acted. Dilley was in the meantime ap-
pointed by the Logan commissioners and
Hampton fired. When the supreme court
annulled the act creating Lincoln and abol-
ishing Logan, Hampton wanted to be Lo
gan's probate Judge. hence the contest.

SARATOGA SOCIETY.
Mrs. Henry Hilton Lets Her
Angry Passions Rise.
She Wants the Manager Of the Windsor to
Turn Out Eloise Willis and Mrs Lente
They Bring suit
tspecial.o TIE arRALp-Exam,ner Dispatch

L peClaltO IHE hERALD-EXamiler DfSpdrcn.
SARATOGA, n. Y, Aug. 4.-The social
system of this place Las been shocked.
The upheaval has been caused by the wife
Of Henry Hilton, lr. She is seldom seen
with him in public, but she is prominent
figure on the fashionable drive daily. Two
handsome young women, one of whom is
known In New York city and both Of
whom have been fsvorably known in Sara
toga for several years, incurred Mrs. Hill
toms enmity. They are Miss Eloiss Willis,
at one time member Of Mr.. Palmer's COM
pany, and at another time MEMBER of Nat
Goodwin's company and her sister, Mrs.
Lente, who married son of DIR. Lente,
for many years physician at the United
States hotel Both or these ladies are
very handsome. Mrs. Lente is q widow
and still on the sunny side of thirty. Miss
Willis does not lock any older hut she is q
lighter blonde. Miss Willis was the prin-
cipal cause Of the trouble, and made Mrs.
Hilton so furious that she raved in the
Windsor hotel a few days ago and called
upon Willard Lester, manager Of the hotel,
to turn Miss Willis and her sister into the
street In her rage she denounced MIR.
Lester and Mr.. Hilton. Mrs. Hill
ton mistook Miss Willis for q
very particular friend of Mr..
Hilton and Mrs. Lente as this friends
abettor. The ladies were not turned out of
the Windsor, but left Friday and went to
the United States hotel. Then Mrs Hilton
began to circulate stories about the two
ladies which caused other guests in the
hotel to shun her. The ladies therefore
consulted a noted lawyer and this morning
papers were drawn up in a suit for defa-
nation. Mr.. Hilton does not wish to say
at all himself; he simply denies
that there was anything in it, and thinks
that mischievious gossips have done more
to make this trouble han even Mrs. Hilton
herself. Nobody can interview the lady to
obtain her version now that speech from her
might be so dangerous and expensive.

MONEY CIRCULATION
The Amount Has Not Diminished
Since the War.
In 1891 the Per Capita Amount Was S2i10
the Highest In the History of
the Country.

WASHINGTON, Aug. "A statement has
been prepared at the treasury departing Mt
in regard TO the amounts of money in circu-
lation on the 1st of July, 1850, 1865, 1885.
1889 and 1891, from which it appears the
assertion that there has been since the war
great reduction IN the amount Of money
in circulation is without foundation. All
the statements furnished are made upon
precisely the same basis. The amount of
each kind of money in the treasury and the
remainder are given as is the amount in
circulation. The amount of money in cir
culation in 1860 was about $435,
100000 and the amount per cap
tia was $l3.o5. In 1S65 there
were S123, 000, 900 in circulation. There was
over 81 ,2S2, COZ, 900 and the per capita was
s23O2 in 1890, while on the lst of January last
the amount was nearly Isis, 000, 900 with
S24. 10 as a per capita allowance. the high
est in the history of the United States.
Owing to the shidments of gold to foreign
countries there has been q decline since
January /, 1891 not only in the per capita
amount but in the total circulation. On the
Is inst, Notwithstanding the outflow of
gold, there we're about l,50J, 900 100 and
the amount per capita was S23 80.

seriously hurt. Sunday afternoon thirty
''Redbones' came to the camp after the
bodies Of the dead and dispersed the officers
who were at the scene and who are organ
izing strong force to storm the strong
holds of the desperadoes. More trouble is
feared.

for many years. About ten days ago the
pr esident of the Sugar trust was called
away from the city by the fatal i'll
ness of his father, f. G. Havemeyer.
While he was away the Sugar trust
maintained the price for graduated
sugar, but Claus Spreckels announced
reduction of 10 cent per pound, cutting
seriously into the trade of the Sugar trust.
Yesterday President Havemeyer returned,
and at once ordered the Sugar trust price
reduced l-l6 cent below the cut made by
SprecKels. The latter TO day made an
other cut, bringing his price l-l6 cent be-
low the price asked by the trust. The re-
auctions made bring the price for granu-
lated sugar down to 1 cents per pound in
Philadelphia, on which 2 per cent is al
lowed off, making the net cash price
92-i00 cents, the lowest on record. The
price named by the trust is l-16. In Aug
ust, 1889. after the formation of the trust,
sugar sold at So cents per pound. A cur
ious feature of the fight is that in the
raw sugar market both parties are urgent
buyers and the sugar trust to-day bought
raw sugar at 5-l6 cents. This brings
the profit of refining down to very low
point.
