treasurer from levying taxes on its
stock. The company set up that the
stock had already been assessed in IL
linois. and that the goods here were
simply goods in transit" The court
held that as the company retailed it's
goods here they were not goods in
transit" but subject to levy and tax

The principle has been at stake for
some time, several suits having arisen.
This is the first decision against an i'm
plement company.

Four Languages Only.

At the geographical congress at Ber-
lin this summer the languages to be
used will be limited to English, Ger
nan, French and Italian. A writer in
the review published by the Madrid
geographical society protested against
the exclusion of the Spanish language
in view of the fact that 1t was spoken
by most of the discoveries and colon
lists of large part of the world. It
says if more geographers were able to
read Spanish they would not from
time to time bring forth facts as new
which were printed in Spanish books
two or three centuries ago.
