TO FIX STATUS OF
INSULAR POSSESSIONS.
Arguments Begun in the United SUI
preme Court in Test
Cnxaa

WASHINGTON, Dee lin the United
States supreme court argument was be-
gun in two cases, decisions on which are
expected to fix the status of Puerto Rico
and the Philippine Islands and other in
sular possessions acquired through the
war with Spain with respect to the unl-
ted States proper; 10 say whether their
people are citizens and Indicate whether
the constitution follows the flag
One of the cases is that of John Goetz,
who In June 1899. imported from Puerto
Rico a quantity of leaf tobacco into the
United States through the port OF New
York and protested against assessment Of
duty on the importation. claiming that
the tobacco was not subject to duty be-
cause Puerto Rico at the time of the I'M
portation was not a foreign country and
because. therefore. the imposition of du-
ties on goods brought from place within
the territory of the United States into a
port OF the United States is not lawful
and valid under the constitution"
The collector of the port and the board
Of general appraisers both ruled against sa.;t
court for the southern district of New
York when Goetz took his case before
that tribunal. From the opinion Of the
court the importer appealed to The United
States supreme court
The other case is known as the fourteen
diamond rings case. In that suit the
claimant Is one Manuel Peppke who
served as a soldier of the United States
In Luzon. Philippine islands. While there
he purchased or acquired the rings in
question and brought them to the United
States without paying duty on them some
time in the wear 1899 between July 81 and
September e. The rings were seized on
May H. 1900, at Chicago by n United
States customs officer as merchandise
liable to duty, which should have been in
voiced and which We're fraudulently inn
ported to the United States contrary to
the law. Information for the forfeiture
of the rings was filed on behalf of the
government June /. 1900 to which the
claimant pleaded. setting forth that at
the time he acquired the property Luzon
was a part of the territory Of the United
States, and that the seizure was contrary
to the claimants right as citizen of the
United States under the constitution, and
particularly under section 2. article w
thereof and he insisted that under ar
ticle L., section 8. congress Is required To
see that ali taxes md drties shall be uni
form throughout the United states To
this plea the United States demurred and
upon hearing Of the demurrer the district
court gave JUDGMENT OF forfeiture for the
government. This Judgment the claimant
removed into the supreme court by writ
of error.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. i7.--Gus Rubin
and Peter Maher met tonight at the
Penn Arr Athletic Club In a six-rouud
contest that proved to be one of the
fastest and most furious bouts of that
length between heavy weights which has
been seen for some time.
Under the local laws no decisions are
permitted. judgment as to the outcome
being left TO the spectators. The con-
census of opinion was that Rubin had
by far the better of the fight and clearly
ontclassed the Irishman. Notwithstanding
Maher put up one of the gamest battles
he has ever done.
Both men were in excellent shape and
from the first sound of the bell to the
end of the fight went at II hammer and

Maher was especially active in the first
three rounds. after which he did not
show the same form but apnarentty
