WASHINGTON. Sept. 29.--Unlted States
District Attorney Birney said this morning
that capt. HOWEdte's case would, In all
probability, come up IN the Criminal
Court here within the next six weeks or
two months. The reason for this delay
is that the arrest IN New York OF Cap
tain Howgate was surprise to the

they viii have TO make "A thorough study

to procure the necessary bondsmen.
The maximum punishment IS 5000 fine
or imprisonment for five years, or bCth.
There are several charges o, embezzle-
mcnt against HOwgate, but they may be
consolidated.
The maximum punishment for the first
offence Of forgery is not .eSs than year

Captain H0wgate when he was first
brought 10 trial in the District courts,
pleaded not guilty 20 all the indictments
against him. and, should be- not change

A Test Case Involving the Duty on I'M
port.d Iron TO br AfYsrtsd

BOSTON, Sept 29-An important decis-
ion was rendered to-day by Judge Cont
I'm the United States Circuit Court. against
the United States Government. The case
was that OF Joseph Birtwell against COL
lector Leyerett Saltonstall. which mas
been pending in this court for number
OF years The law points involved are the
same as in similar eases now pending ia
circuit courts in many other States. ana
this was a test case.
Birtwell is an importer or iron, and
some time ago imported into this country
iron beams, which were used In the con-
strlction OF the new court house. The
goods were invoced as manufactures
OF Iron" upon which there is lower
rate of duty than upon iron beams.
The collector classified them as iron
beams" and the higher rate OF duty was
paid by Mr.. Birtwell, as he desired 10
use the beams at once. Ten days after
this duty was paid he entered protest
but the Government contends that the
protest should have been made at the
lime the duty was paid. on this point
hinges all the other cases which nave
been brought against the Government TO
recover duties paid under protest; IL -
estimated that the amount involved In an
the cases pending is about $2J,QOJ.sO, Inc
case will be appealed.
