Decision Against the Secretary of the | asury-Vvnterbury Herald Cases
 Arguments in Hygeis Ice Company 1 Case-F Fair Haven Man Bankrupt
 City Court tCases-ImpOrtant Commtt- l tee Appointed by Judge Townsend.
 Judge Townsend of the United States district court in this city this week ap- pointed a new committee to condemn
 the land wanted by the government in Bridgeport for the addition to the Fed eral building. The government recent 1 ly had set aside the awards of $32,000 to R. M Judson and $20,000 to Rat cliffe Hicks for their property on can non street, and Attorney A. w. Paige, special counsel for the government, presented a new petition for the con- demnation of this property. MT. Jud- sons counsel, Stiles Judson, jr., and Judge DeForest and Judge Kelsey and Attorney Judson for MT. Hicks made an objection pro forma to the appoint ment of 8 new committee on the ground that a legal award had already been made by one committee, and the court had no authority to name another con- mittee. Judge Townsend overruled this, and names were then considered for the appointment. Counsel for MT. Judson suggested Samuel Tweedy. The court appointed Louis H. Bristol of New Haven, Samuel Tweedy of Dan- bury and Robert T. Merwin of New Haven. MT. Bristol is the senior part her of the well known law firm of Bristol, Stoddard and Bristol. MT. Tweedy is a Danbury lawyer, of the firm of Tweedy, Scott & Whittlesey, and Mir. Merwin is a well known real estate agent of this city. This com- mittee was named to appraise the Jud- son property next adjoining the present postoffiee land. Counsel for MT. Hicks then agreed to the same committee being selected to appraise the property of their client. The committee will or ganize and begin it's duties within fortnight The hearings will be held in the Federal building in Bridgeport.
 Judge Townsend of the United States CUult udS HdlQtu uONll i uGtloiOll Ill the case of United States against Loci & Schoenfeld, importers of New York. The importers in 1898 imported 120 in- voices of Swiss embroideries. An ap- praisement for custom duties was plac- ed on the goods, and this the importers deemed too high and appealed to the board of appraisers, where the apprais- al was lowered. The attention of the secretary of the treasury was then call ed to the case, and he ordered a reap praisement Against this order the importers protested. The court sus tains the protest.
 This case involves the question as to whether the collector of q port in his decision as to customs cases shall be vetoed by the secretary of the treasury. In this case the collector of New York gave as his opinion that the appraisal on the 120 invoices was not too low.

The San Francisco Chronicle, in COM
menting upon the efforts made by the
Washington and Oregon hop growers TO
form an effective association for the
handling of hops, says: There has
never been any reason to expect success.
for the mass OF the growers have never
shown any comprehension OF business
principles, although the leaders in the
movement we're clear enough. The Yak
ina growers had a meeting a short time
since in which it was finally made evil
dent that the growers generally were in
favor of any kind Of corporation which
did not cost them anything and which
did not bind them TO anything. As no
such corporation is of any particular
value to any one, the Yakima Hopgrow-
ers' COOPERATIVE and Protective Associa-
tion is practically no more"
