OLNEY DECIDES
About the Tariff on German Salt and
Beet sugar.

Beet sugar.
WASHINGTON, Nov, 14-Attorney Gen
eral Olney has rendered an important
decision involving the Interpretation Of
the "most favored nation" clause in the
treaty between the United States and
Prussia. The question propounded by
the secretary Of the treasury was
whether "salt imported from the empire
of Germany was dutiable" under para
graph nos Of the new tariff act. which
provides that il salt is imported from
any country, whether independent or a
dependency, which imposes a duty on
salt exported from the United States,
there shall be levied upon such salt the
rate of duty existing prior to the passage
of the act. The attorney general holds
that salt imported from Germany is
legal y.dutiable as far as the "favored
nation is concerned. The same argu-
ment will apply to beet sugar.

HALIFAX, Jan. l9.-The report made al

Chief Officer Mayer and Slve of the crew
OF the steamer while attempting rescue
at sea, seemed TO indicate that the crew
Of the fishing schooner Maggie +. Wells.
numbering IA, had all perished.
Good news came to Halifax yesterday.
The Gloucester Mass schooner Magnolia,
Captain Day, arrived with the Maggie f.
Wells crew. They were taken Monday
from their vessel, which was then set on
fire 100 miles east by southeast of Sable
island.
The Maggie f. Wells sailed from
Gloucester, Mass, Dec 20, on halibut ex.
petition. She proceeded to Quero banks,
Off Sable island, and fished there without
Interruption of storm or accident until
Friday last. Ten thousand pounds OF
hali6ut had been captured by that time
and the voyage promised 10 be profitable
one for all concerned.
Early Friday morning the wind came IL
puifs from the south and the sky dark
ened; the sea rolled rapidly and the wind
kept freshening.
The cabin and holds were half full OF
water. The wind blew the foresail and
other sails 10 ribbons, and threw the
schooner so far down on her beam ends
that the mastheads were buried In
the ocean. Captain Davidson, r. X.
Peach and J. A. Williams were washed
overheard by the waves All three came
up again.
When she righted the schooner pre-
sented scene of wreck and despair.
Every boat was smashed to atoms; not q
sail was left standing; ropes and blocks
and lines were confused and hopelessly
tangled, and worst of all, her deck planks
were started and leaking like a sieve.
On Monday the Gloucester schooner
Magnolia hove In sight and rescued Cap
tain Davidson and his men without much
difficulty. The Maggie T.. Wells was then
fired, being waterlogged and a menace
to navigation. The shipwrecked crew
succeeded in saving their personal effects,
and the captain brought of his papers
and instruments.
Captain Davidson reports that shortly
after leaving his own vessel he saw an
other vessel which had met the same fate
as the Maggie +. Wells. She was about
10 miles west of where the Wells had
been drifting. The vessel was partly on
her beam ends, waterlogged and on fire.
and there was an ocean steamer near by.
They found she was the Porter S.
Roberts of Gloucester, and as there was
no sign OF lite on board, 1t was supposed
that the crew had been rescued by the
steamer and the vessel set on fire. The
Porter $. Roberts was built in Essex,
Mass, in 1882, and hailed from Glouces-
ter.

as was predicted, In a complete failure for

were discharged by the judge even before
the defence had introduced any OF their
testimony. The warrants were each Of
them defective, whether purposely or not,
is of course undeterminable but the de-
fence refused To take advantage OF techni-
calities and demanded full hearing. The
result was that Francis Conlon, who re-
Gently swore that he was Republican,
and who was the man who, with others,
had the officers arrested, was so over
whelmingly proved To by false witness,
designedly or mistakenly, that the court
stopped the case and called City Solicitor
Bsrnefeld before the bench and advised
Mr.. Barneheld TO drop the case. Upon
Mr.. Bsrnefield's refusal, Judge Shove
took the reins IN his own hands and said
that he did not want any more evidence
for the defence and summarilly dis
charged the defendants. There was
much more cumulative evidence which
would have shown direct conspiracy
