The question then came up on the
modification of the directors rule, with
the same vote. Acting Chairman De

were not modified by the commission.
After q debate which preceded the
voting, the chairman put the motion
"Shall the rule sub nitted by the direct

sheet after voiing, De Young said
1.-The act Of congress provides that the
rules shall be submitted to the commits
sion by the directory, and notifications
I if any are made. shall require a majority
vote OF the whole commission to be
effective. The vote shows that q major
ity has not voted to modify. and the rule
therefore stands as submitted by tbs

Boring Sea Case.
CHICAGO, May 23.--Justice Brewer of
the United States supreme court was in
the city today. Speaking of the Bering
sea controversy, he said he would not be
much surprised If the arbitration went
against the United States. He never
took much stock in the ''cIosed sea-
theory.
Speaking of the Geary law, in regard
to which he diesented from the majority
opinion OF the supreme court, Brewer
said: by our treaties with China we
owe her people protection more than
any other country, because it is speci.
fed especially in those treaties that her
subjects in this country shall receive all
the business and residence privileges
granted to subjects of other nations. Az
the case now stands it awaits some
action on the part OF congress. If the
act is enforced it will go down ahrough
time blot on the pages of American
history--a disgraceful crime against an
other nation.
