A L E GAL OPINION
Asked as to the Right of Seizure of Postal
Stamp Albums.
What is Claimed by Local Dealers
No Further Seizure Likely Until
the Opinion is Furnished.

The seizure of certain postage stamp al
buns at Fishers book store. on Penpsyl-
vania avenue between 18th and 18th streets
northwest, on the 18th instant, by Inspec-
tor G. y. Barker of the secret service, as
exclusively reported in The Star, has re-
suited in the question whether stamp col
lecturs have the right to print and sell
fac-similes of United States and foreign
postage stamps, being submitted to the De-
partmenr of Justice for settlement.
1t is claimed by the Treasury Depart
ment that the imitation of postage stamps
OF the United States or of any foreign
country is a clear violation of the law.
The other side Of the question is to the eff
feet that the collecting Of stamps and the
necessary imitation Of them educates the
youth and tends to prevent imposition.
One local dealer within the last few days
has secured a new stock Of albums. and
announces that he will resist all attempts
to seize the books unless a search warrant
is sw orn out. 1t is almost a certainty that
no further seizures will be attempted until
the pending opinion Of the Attorney Cen
eral In regard to the matter Is rendered
1t is the contention of the dealers that the
reproductions of stamps in albums are Of
black and white and not In oolors. They
are reduced In size and could not possibly
pass for genuine stamps. The United
States authorities, according to the deal
ers, seem to be exerting themselves un-
necessarily to protect foreign governments,
SO far as their obligations are concerned
when those governments make no effort
and colisiGor 1T not worth while to protect
themselves. Albums containing reduced
reproductions similar to those referred to,
it is claimed. are sold in all foreign coun-
tries.
Chief Hazen of the secret service is au-
thority for the statement that the stamps
gathered by private collectors will not be
disturbed. The desire is to stop the print
ing Of albums and the engraving Of plates
The contention that the limitations are rot
in colors. says Chief Hazen. Is not valid
as the publishers own plates, can print in
colors from them, and have done so.
Attorneys representing the Standard
Stamp Company of st. Louis and the Scott
Stamp Company Of New York have sub
mitted briefs in tho case, and nothing fur
ther remains to be done until the decision
is reached.

FORMALLY ORGANIZED.
The Venezuelan Claims COmmis ssiOu
Now Ready for Business.

The Venezuelan claims commission, after
many unavoidable delays, formally organ
lied today at their rooms. in the bureau of
American republics building. with Senior
Romero, the Mexican minister. as chairman
and Judge N. L.Jeffries, United States COM
missioner, and Senior Andrade, the Vene-
Zuelan minister, commissioners for Vene-
zuela. Mr.. Alex. p. Morse is the agent on
behalf of the United States and ex-Solicitor
General Phillips the agent Of the Vene-
zuelan government. Messrs. Shellabarger
and Wilson Of this city were also present as
counsel for the Venezuelan Steam Trans
portation Company, New York corpora
ton, whose claim for damages sustained to
its property and its employees during a
recent revolution In Venezuela is to be arbi-
trated by the commission. Although this IS
the only claim before the commission, its
settlement is a matter of vital interest to
a very large number of people outside Of
the corporation. This mornings session
was short and merely formal, and at its
close the commissioners visited the State
Department and norified Secretary Gresham
that they had organized for business and
would hold their first session on Saturday
next.

A BALLISTlC TES 7
Proposition Made by Mr.. Carnegie of Al
legged Defective Armor Plates
Secretary Herbert Declines to Discuss
the Matter, but Says No Refund of
the Penalty Has Been Demanded.

1t Is now said that the recent visit Of Mr..
Carnegie to this city was for the purpose of
making an arrangement with the Secretary
Of the Navy for ballistic list Of all the
armor plates In United States vessels ad-
Judged defective by the Cummings COM
mittee that Investigated the subject. He
had a long confidential talk with Secretary
Herbert at the Navy Department Monday
last, at which, 1t is understood, he made
the broad proposition that his company
would stand the expense Of as many bal
listic tests Of tn eir armor plates as the de-
partment deemed desirable, in order to re-
move all doubt as to the character Of the
plates under suspicion. 1t Is also asserted
that If this was not satisfactory the CON-
pany was willing to forego the tests and
replace the suspicious plates with good
armor of the best quality.
The Secretary VIII Not Discuss 1t.
Secretary. Herbert declines positively to
discuss this matter further than to deny
the published report that Mr.. Carnegie had
demanded refund Of the $4,000 exacted
from his company on account Of alleged
defective work. or that he had threatened
to sue for it's recovery. The greatest Sc
crecy is observed in regard to the matter.
and 1t is extremely difficult to obtain re-
liable Information as to what actually Is
on foot When Secretary Herbert was be-
fore the investigating committee. he op-
posed the proposition to remove the suS-
picious plates from the vessels for the pur-
pose of ballistic tests 1t remains to be
seen what he will do now that the same
proposition Is before him In another shape.
The probability. however, is that he Will
submit to the Senate committee on naval
affairs and abide by Its decision.

JOHN BURNS COMING.
He VIII Arrive Tomorrow Night
Typographical Unions Decision.

John Burns. the English labor leader,
who is making tour Of this country, will,
according to a dispatch received by one Of
his friends here, arrive In Washington to-
morrow evening. 1t was at first supposed
that Mr.. Burns would be received by the
Typographical Union, but that body has
decided, In view Of the fact that he has
not replied to any Of the communications
sent him, that it will take no official part
in his entertainment while here. 1t is not
known whether any of the labor organiza-
tions will officially notice him, as he has
treated their letters and kilograms in the
same Indifferent manner. In an indirect
way 1t is supposed Burns will make two
addresses while in the city.
Mr.. James A. Power. organizer OF the
International Typographical Union. states
that whether the union takes any action or
not Mr.. Burns will be properly received
and that he, as the representative Of the
Federation of Labor, will take charge Of
the matter. Mr.. Power wired Samuel Com
pers at New York this afternoon in refer
ence to the matter, stating the dissats-
faction that exists here owing to the fact
that Mr. Burns has ignored the labor men,
and that no information could be received
on which to base any arrangements for his
coming.
