is IT HEINzE'S DAY TO SELF

The information was given out this
morning by a mining man of large in
terests in mines, and close friend of F.
Augustus Heinze that there will be q
meeting in New York to-day of Heinze
people and representatives of the Anal
gamated Copper company. The object
of the meeting is to arrange terms upon
which the latter will buy out the Heinze
interests in Montana.
1t has always been understood that Mr..
Heinze was not only willing to sell out,
but that he was anxious to do SO. At
the same time, the Amalgamated has
been willing to eliminate Mr.. Heinz@
from the Montana copper mines, provided
1t could do SO. at what the Amalgamated
considered a fair price for the Heinz4

Weller and Encch Johns were present to
go on his bond. 1t was learned by
queries of Assistant County Attorney
Dan Yancey that Weller's is mining
property and that Johns property is in
litigation. Both men admitted that their
taxes for last year had not exceeded SIS
each, part of their property being ex-
empt from levy in bonding. Yancey i'm
mediately objected to the bonds being
accepted by the court and
Judge McClernan speedily disposed Of the
matter by stating that he regarded the
exception of the assistant county attor-
ney as being we'll taken. Accordingly

properties. On the other hand, II was
generally said that Heinze was holding
out for a sum far greater than the real
value of his holdings; but that that was
in the nature of a bluff SO as to force
the Amalgamated people to come up
with figures that were fully equivalent
to the real worth of the mines.
In view Of the many tie-ups in Silver
Bow mines through suits. It may be that
it is thought best on both sides to con.
solidate interests, and get the hidden
wealth of these hills into circulation.
That Heinze would eventually make q
deal with the Amalgamated. has nayer
been doubted in Butte mining circles:
nor has it been doubted but that when
Heinze should be willing to accept fair
value for his goods. the Amalgamated
would deal with him.

Washington, May 27.-Justice Brown
Of the United States supreme court to-
day announced the decision of that
court in the insular cases. The an
nouncement of the courts opinion was
begun at 1927. The main opinion was
handed down in the De Lima cases.
Justice Brown, who announced the
ton holds that the lower court had
jurisdiction. Justice Brown said that
whether the sugars imported from and
into Porto Rico were dutiable depends
on whether Porto Rico is a foreign
country He held that the right to ac-
quire territory Involves the right to
govern and conrol 1t by congress, but
he said that country could not be both
foreign and domestic.
The opinion was opposed to the con-
tentiOn of the government. He conclud-
ed that at the time the duties were COL
leced Porto Rico was not a foreign coun-
try, but territory of the United States.
Justice Brown concluded as follows:
''If an act of congress be necessary
to convert foreign country into do
mestic territory, the question at once
suggests the question, what is the char
acter of the legislation demanded for
this purpose?
"Will an act appropriating money for
It's purchase be sufficient? Apparently
not. Will an act appropriating the du-
ties collected upon imports to and from
such country for the, benefit of its gov
ernment be sufficient? Apparently not.
WIN acts making appropriations for it's
Iostal service for the establishment of
lighthouses, for tue maintenance of
quarantine sta siOns, for erecting public
buildings have that effect? Win an act
establishing a complete local govern
1nent, but with the reservation of a
right to collect duties upon commerce,
be adequate for that purpose?
"None of these, nor all together. will
be sufficient if the contention of the
government be sound, since acts en-
bracing all these provisions have been
passed in connection with Porto Rico,
and it is insisted that it is still a for
eign country within the meaning of the
tariff laws. We are unable to acquiesce
fl this assumption that a territory may
be at the same time both foreign and
domestic.
1--WE are therefore of the opinion that
at the time these duties were levied
Porto Rico was not a foreign country
within the meaning Of the tariff laws,
but a territory of the United States;
that the duties were illegally cxacted
and that the plaintiffs are entitled to
recover them back.
The Judgment of the circuit court for
the southern district of New York is
therefore reversed and the case remand

day. The big catcher does not often have
such a record in the way of errors and

plays of tne day, and was warmly APP

remarkably fast ftelder-a man who would

Exciting Motor Cycle Events Ex-
pected to Make New Records.

The motor cycle races will be pulled off
tonight at SIS o'clock at the Coliseum
weather permitting, and from the present
outlook the events will be the most sen
sational ever presented at the local bowl.
The contestants in the four events will
be the fastest motor cycles ever built and
manned by the most competent American
teams in this country. The time in each
OF the events is also expected to be phe-
nomenal.
Motor cycle racing is rapidly becoming
popular all over the country and several
cities have preferred this style of races
TO any other. In Baltimore there was a
great demand for motor cycle races and
the city presented its first races of this
nature there last night. The same four
teams will arrive in this city this morn
ing and commence practicing on the local
bowl.
The machines and their riders entered
tonight are: THE Royal Blue Gaudette
and Scherer; yellow Boy" King and

IN NEED OF PROPER FOOD.
DR.. Marbury Ascertains the Cause of
Wong Shong's Weakness

| After n careful examination of Wong
| Sh0ng, the Chinaman who was beaten
| over the head by Policeman C. H Murphy
| on August 10 because he resisted the Of
| ficer in the discharge of his duty, and
| who has since been reported as being at
deaths door, DIR. Marbury yesterday
stated positively that there was nothing
the matter with the Celestial other than
that he had been deprived of proper
nourishment and that he was extremely
weak as a result.
DIR. Marbury believes that Shong is
shamming for the purpose of avoiding
trial or exciting sympathy. The Celestial
is under 1890 bond to await the action
of the grand jury. Whether there is any
Interior purpose in depriving the CHINA
man of food has not yet been ascertained,
but an investigation Is in progress.
The case was brought to the attention
of Major Sylvester yesterday morning and
he at once ordered an enquiry.
Accompanied by Detective Sergeant
Horne, DIR. Marbury went to the Chinese
Temple, on Four-and-a-Half Street, and
found Shong occupying shelf covered
with dirty mating, in rear room in the
basement He had moved from the front
room. in which he was seen Tuesday night
and in the absence of the weird lights OF
the dingy apartment he showed more
signs of life than on the previous occas-
ion. Beside him yesterday morning was an
opium set and there were indications that
Shong had been using it.
Dr. Marbury examined the wound on the
left side of Shong's head and found that
it had thoroughly healed and was perfect
ly Well There were no evidences of a clot
on the brain or any Ill effects as a result
OF the clubbing. Neither could the physi-

other lung trouble. although thorough
examination was made of the Chinamap,
Shong was urged to go to the hospital
where ne could be properly nourished, and
where, under proper treatment he would
be restored to health in a few days. but
this he positively refused to do, saying
that the Chinese doctors were going to
send him some medicine. The police fear
that some trick may be played upon them
and are watching the case very closely.
They believe that If Shong is not forced
TO take proper feed and provided with bet
ter surroundings he may die.
