Mr. TAYLOR, the Uuited States Minister
at Madrid. had an important conference
Monday with Senor Griozard. Minister
for Foreign Affairs, relative to the impo-
sition of excessive duties upon imports in
to Cuba from the United States. He in
formed the Scnor that he had been direct
ed by his government to inform the Gov
ernment of Spain that if it persisted in
exacting these discriminating duties the
action could be regarded by the President
only as inviting the exercise by him of the
power of retaliation conferred by the act
of 1890. This threat has caused COM
motion in ministerial circles. The ac-
ton of our State Department indicated
in the cablegram from Madrid in
warning the Spanish Government of
its intention to resort to retalia-
ton should Spain continue its present
policy with respect to American exports
to Cuba will doubtless have the effect to
bring ut once to focus the long g-drawn-
out negotiations which have been in prog

that government None of our foreign re-
lations has of late given us so much
trouble rs those with Spain. For several

the claims of American exports for the re-
mission of heavy fines and excessive
taxes amounting to $5,OOO,00O. These
taxes and fines were imposed by the
Cuban customs officers in direct violation
of all treaties and absolutely without any
other warrant than existing necessity for
funds. The Spanish Government prac-
tically admitted the justice of our ciaims
but failed To make any restitution.

Blow at MOuODOly.

Judge Carpenter, in the United States
Circuit Court 1T Boston. decreed that the
telephone patent. 463, ,569 issued Nov. Il.
1891. to Emile Berliner, be declared void
and delivered up to be cancelled. There
were two grounds upon which the gov
ernmcnt attacked the Berliner patent,
and on both grounds the court decides
against the company, which is not only de-
feated but has to pay costs. which are
enormous. The first ground of attack
was that its issue had been wrongfully
delayed by the American Bell Telephone
Company. working through various pro
ceedings of the patent office The second
ground of attack by the government was
because substantially the same patent. or
n patent substantially covering the same
invention. was issued in 1880 to Emile
Berliner. The company has the right TO
appeal TO the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals. While the Berliner patent
was a ground patent. the American Bell
Telephone Company has protected itself
by specific patents in every Improvement
made. Upon the announcement of this
decision Bell telephone stock broke from
20012 to 19l, and sold later to 194 and
1913. more than 200 changing hands. The
value of the patent involved is said to be
$J,000.000.
