Copyright Infringed.

New YoRK, April 2a.-A decision has beer
handed down by Judge Townsend in the
United States circuit cou,t, which ef-
fectually stops the further publication OF
the ENJOY clopadia britannica in America.
This decision WAS reached in the protractet
suit of A. Q. Black publisher. OF Eiinburg.
against Funk a. Wagnalls, Henry q. Allen.
ct al. of this city. for the piracy of their
publication. The decision of the court Ia
in favor of the plaintiff and permanently
enjoins the defendants from manufsotur-
ing or selling reprints. The defendants
published what is known Rs the Sotibner
britannica. In the EdinburS edition there
were artioles which we're copyrighted and
the same was embraced in the American
edition. IL was the production of the copy
right articles that led TO the controversy.
Jadgs Townsend holds that ths copyright
was infringsd aud that the injunction must
stand against the defendant. This dsois-
ion leaves the edition published by the
Werner company. of Chicago, practically
alone in the field. az it 10 now the only
legal edition in America.

HAS A LITTLE FREE GOLD,
Enough Turned in Saturday TO
More Than Offset the Previous
Withdrawals.
No Bad Results Followed the Dip
ping Into the Big Gold
Reserve.
Mr.. Jordan and the New York Bankers
Hold a aConsuitatiOn-P Parity Will
lie Preserved.

WASHINGTON. April 22--When the day
closed the treasury department had to ita
credit slightly over 300. 900 in free gold. II
IL expected this will be increased Monday,
as there ia disposition shown by western
bankers to help tho treasury swell its gold
balance. Several banks in New York. too.
started to turn in gold for greenbacks.
There is better feeling. temporarily at
least. and tho fact that no bad result oc-
Cured by dipping into the greenback gold
reserve leads to the belief that none will
occur if it is found necessary to repeat the
proceeding. 1t is anticipated here TINT
large shipments Of gold will be made next
week. In case shipments are made there ia
nothing to indicate that Secretary Carlisle
will not do as he did yesterday. viz, invade
the gold reserve in order 10 meet all de-
msnds.
Expenditures 80 far this month have been
heavy. exceeding the receipts by over g.
600, ZOO. This had the effect of reducing
the net cash balance in the treasury. which
to-day is $24. 100000. OF this amount $1O.-
600 GOO is in subsidiary coin and $11.O00,0 000
in national bank repositories.
Exaggerated stories which gained circu-
lation last night and were widely published
to-day to the effect that at tho cabinet
meeting during the afternoon President
Cleveland and Secretary Carlisle had Sc
rious misunderstanding. which might lead
to the resignation of Carlisle. were officially
denied by members Of the cabinet and of
ficials of the treasury department.. The
relations which exist to day between Secre-
tary Carlisle and President Cleveland are
as cordial as they ever have been. 90,
What the future policy of the treasury
may be regarding finances is still a matter
of conjecture, for definite course has not
been decided upon. The department will
wait Developments. and as emergencies
arise 1t is believed 1t will be fully able to
meet them. One result of the gold scare
has been to cause good deal of quiet dis
cussion among the statesmen left at the
capital of the necessity OF an extra session
of congress-. 1t is undeniable that some OF
them feel that such session is probable.
and at an earlier date even than that pre-
dicted by Vice President Stevenson,
namely, September next.
There is question as to the authority of
tho secretary of the treasury to issue bonds
decided weight of opinion lies in favor of
the proposition. II should also be borne in
mind that if the secretary decides in the
affirmative he is still bound to issue only
bonds Mt old rates. namely. four and four
and a half and five PEI cent, instead of the
three per cent bonds it is said to be possi-
BILE to float.

Brought Up.

Special to The Independent.
BUTTE, April 22-'rhe fire in tho Silver
Bow mine was extinpuished during the
early hours OF this morning the men at
last being able to reach the GOO level and
play the hose on the fire. Owing to tho
prevailing smoke, however, 1t was not pos
sible to begin search for the bodies until
seven O'Clock this morning. The 800 level
was frat searched but no bodies were found
there although two men had been working
on that level at the time of the fire. The
40O-foot level was then searched About
thirty feet from the shaft tho body of Evan
PuRh was found. A short distance further
were the bodies of Edward Pascoe. Riohatd d
Andrews and James Nattio. The last
named mnst have been trying to force his
way through the fire as he WAS badly
burned. The fire had not reached any
where nenr the place whore his body was
found. The bodies were pink in color, and
the noses bloody. There were scars on
some of the bodies which were not burns,
apparently indicating that the men had
beaten themselves OK thrown themselves
against the tmbers.
The body of Anton Riava was found on
III upfhIBe DotW06n the 4OO anu DOO level,
death having overtaken him while climbing
up to the surface. He had sat down on a
big timber and died in natural sitting
position. Death seemed to have come to
him peacefully.
These FIVE bodies are the only ones yet re.
covered. The other four mon were OH the
200 level, which is flooded with water. II
is not likely that the water can be pumped
out and the bodies recovered before Tues
day. There is no connection between the
500 and 700 levels except by the shaft.
Richard Andrews, one of the men whose
bodies were recovered to-day, could have
saved himself. As Kramer. on discovering
the fire. reached for the bell rope to hoist 10
the surface. Andrews appeared. Krame.
called to him to hurry. Andrews hesi-
tated. then said he must warn his partners
and disappeared. Kramer waited until the
fire was burning his face. and then gave the
signal.
During to-day pumping of the water from
the mine has been in progress. The en-
ployes of the Butte & Boston company are
all insured in the American Casualty COM
pany for small amounts.
