EPOCH MAKING LITIGATION
CASES BEFORE THE
SUPREME COURT.
They Involve the Porto Rico Legisla-
tion and the Legal Relation of the
Philippines to America.

WASHINGTON, October S.-The Oc-
tober term of the United states Su-
preme Court which began today will
leave a memorable mark upon the his
tory of this country. The cases now in
the docket involve the political finan-
cial and economic relations between
this Government and Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippines. Two cases involve
the extradition of Neeley, charged with
looting the Cuban postal revenues
The consttutionality of the Porto
Rican tariff law is involved in the ap-
peal of Goethe, an importer of tobacco
from the decision of the United States
Court for the Southern District of New
YORK, sustaining the rates imposed by
the Collector of Customs at New York.
The validity of the relations between
the United States and the Philippines
is involved in the title Fourteen Dia-
mond Rings VS.. the United States" be-
ing the appeal of Emil j. Pepke from
the decision of the United States Court
for the Northern District of Illinois.
Pepke brought the rings into the
United States from Manila and was ar
rested at Chicago for smuggling. He
appealed the case to the Supreme Court
on the ground that the Philippine ISL
ands were part of the United States and
as no duty could therefore be levied
his arrest and the confiscation of the
rings were illegal.

DIED RATHER THAN
 TO FACE POVERTY
Dr.. D. C. Green Commits Suicide
 Near Florence.
JUMPED FROM HOUSETOP
The Mortgage Had Been Foreclosed on His Place, and Death Was Pre- ferable to the Bitter
 Humiliation

Florence, February 15.-(Special)-Rather than face humiiating poverty, Dr. D. c. Green, 65 years of age yesterday afternoon committed suicide by jumping from the roof of his home three and one-half miles from this city, on the Forks oe Cypress. Dr. Green came to Florence ten years ago, from Rockford, IM., and was worth considerable money at that time. He purchased a fine farm from F. M. Perry a merchant and farm furnisher of this ctty, but lost all of his money in trying to introduce new farm ing methods, which were impractical in this section. He was unable to pay for the farm. and year ago the mortgage was fore closed.
 The doctor had one year in which to re- deem the property and pay the debt, but he lost money from time to time, grew old and unable to work, and was terribly dis couraged. He had been heard to state many times during dG1e past year that he would kill himself rather than leave his home and face poverty in his old age. Ten days ago ejectmenit notice was served on him. and yesterday was the last day on the old place. Going on top of the house ostens!bly for the purpose of making some repairs, he took headlong leap ito the ground several feet be- low, tfie fall breaking fis neck, and death resu3dDg Instantly.
 Mrs. Greene the faithful wife of the un- lucky man, is a cousin of the Rockefellers, and 1t is said that the old couple could have had alhfhe relief needed for the asking, but both fthem were too proud to ask it. Dr. Greene fhad made host of friends during his residence in this county, and his death will De regretted by everybody who knew him. He leaves an accident insurance policy for s5O00, and some of his friends insist that his deaeJh was the result of an accident. The funeral services will be held tomorrow, 1t is thought, though the arrangements nave not yet been completed.

His family Bible is still preserved, and it shows that the date of his birth was written Ill years ago. Surely few words from this remarka- ble old gentleman, who has had Ill years of experience to draw from, would be in- teresting as well as profitable.
