Against Standard Oil Company.


Against Standard OH Company.
The Court of Appeals In an opinion writ
ten by Mr. Justice Norris, decided yester-
day afternoon the appeal taken by the
Standard Oil Company in the suit for an
injunction filed last winter by J. G. Oeser
and others, residents of South, Wa Washington,
modifying the decree against the company
rendered by Judge Hagner %;
The complainants alleged that the tanks
and storehouses of the company meaaced
their property and health, and otherwise
amounted to q nuisance They prayed,
therefore. that the compat1y be restrained
from enlarging and using its works, not
withstanding a permit obtained from the
District authorities. '-'a
Judge Hagner granted a temporary re-
straining order when the case was before
him, enjoining the company among other
things from enlarging and using, after
June lst, the premises occupied for the
storing of oil.
The Court or Appeals vacates that part
OF Judge Hagner's order which prohibited
the use of the works after the 1st Of June,
restraining the extension Of the works

DAMMIxG THE RIO GRAxDE.
The Attorney General to Take Steps
to Prevent 1t.

10 ffeVent IL.
The Attorney General is about to begin
the prosecution in the courts of New Mex
leo of the officers Of the Rio Grande Dam
and Navigation Company, English cor
poration, which plans the damming Of the
Rio Grande river in New Mexico at Ele-
phant Butts, and the use of the water in
irrigation works. The corporation, which
is heavily capitalized, was granted per-
init by Secretary of the Interior Smith two
years ago to erect such a dam, under the
terms of the desert land laws. The Mexi-
can government complained that the build
ing of this dam would ruin the navigat tion
of the Rio Grande ana would be in violation
of well-recogniZed rules of International
law, as it would lnjure the people along
the Mexican side Of the river. After much
delay the matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the Attorney General who decided
that, even II the place where the dam was
to be erected, lying about 125 miles above
FL Paso, were not navigable water, still 1t
was clear that the dam would prevent
navigation below that point, and so would be
in violation of the United States statutes
prohibiting the obstruction Of navigabie
streams.
The corporation has been busy for some
time cutting fumes and bitches for the dis
tribution of water, but SO far has not ac-
tually commenced the erection Of the dam
which latter would constitute the overt act
necessary to enlist the offices OF the United
States government. Recently. however
Col. ADson Mills. Corps of Engineers, sta
toned at Ell Paso in connection with the
projected International dam at that place.
which would. by the way, be made useless
If the dam above were built and the water
carried off contemplated, informed the
War Department that the corporation had
entered into contract for the building of
the dam. This fact being communicated to
the Attorney General, the latter official held
that there was sufficient ground for the ini-
tiation of legal proceedings. not only in re-
straint but also Of criminal nature, and
the New Mexican district attorney will
probably soon receive the instructions TO
begin suit.

PENSION OFFICE METHODS.
Original Claims to be Given Prefer
ence Over IncreaSes

original Claims to BE Given Prefer
ence Over Increases.
Commissioner of Pensions Evans has not
yet formally promulgated the order pre-
venting pensioners from filing applications
for increases within a year from the last
official action on their cases, but he has
outlined a policy 10 the chiefs of the pen
sion office which will practically accom-
pish the same result as would this order
This is to give preference to original pen
sion claims over all claims for increases
The chiefs have decided not to allow the
number of claims disposed of by a clerk
neure to any important degree in making
up his efficiency record. 1t has been found
that this system has resulted in causing
adjusted claims that come to the office
and has resulted in causing all of the more
intricate among them to lie in the files un-
acted upon.
In the future the old claims are to be
takeh up and disposed of. no matter what
knotly problems are connected with their
adjudication.
