HILL SUED FOR MILLIONS.
GecIogist PenrsOn's Claims Against
the Railroad lIagnnte.

DULUTH. Mimi, Jan. 3O.-Papers have
been filed here in a suit that is of the ut
most moment. both as to the amount OF
money claimed, the character of the de-
PENDANT and the principle involved. The
suit is brought by Prof. II. W. Pearson,
of Duluth. against J J Hill and the Great
Northern Railroad.
The amount involved is trife over
$4,000 and the total sum in the proceed
ings is not less than $4,000 Coo which is
alleged to be the value of property held
by Mr.. Hill and his road and taken by
him after its discovery BY Pearson under
a contract with Hill by which Pearson
was to have a share in the profits.
II is as Calculating a new geological
theory and as overturning to a large ex-
tent previous and present accepted theO-
rles that the suit is Of chief Importance.
Pearson has for nearly twenty years
made study Of geological conditions and
has evolved the flood wood theory of
the deposition of vegetation sufficient 10

The complaint alleges that Pearson dis
covered the Stockett mines by q study Of
elevations and topography, and that he
located the limits Of the fields which have
since proved TO be correct. The Hill in

REVISION OF THE TARIFF.
Present High Duties Causing Il Fall
ing OF in Customs.

l. Government officials are alarmed by the
recent statistics bearing on the income for
customs duties. They fear that the maxi
mum has been reached. and under the
present duties, many of which are prohib-
tive the revenue of the country will
speedily decline Figures which have been
considered by the Senate Finance Commit
tee show that the duties for November.
1900. were 1864. 120 less than for November,
1899 and for December. 1900. $1z4. $50 less
than for December. 1893 The only mon. h
of the preceding twelve in which they
were smaller was in May, 1900. It is clear
that the imports are going TO fall OF, and
it is equally clear that the expenses Of
the Government are going to increase. So,
too. are the exports steadily increasing.
Secretary Gage thinks many Of the Cu-
ties are too high. He believes a revision
OF the tariff is to be desired. but he does
not agree with the members Of the Senate
Finance Committee that this revision
should be undertaken by Congress at the
next session He fears the had effects Of
a check 10 business and an UasettIement
Of values arising from opening mp the tar
IN question in Congress. He would prefer
to see the schedules revised by Z commits
sion OF well informed and scieI tifc men.
The thought that is running through the
minds OF the fnanciers is that there must
be a reduction Of the tariff duties IN order
to increase the revenue. because On so
many lines the duties are now pTOhibiJive.
This idea runs counter to the policy Of
protection, and that IS where the great
fight is coming in the ReDubli an party.
The Administration viii seek II slave Il
OF by guarding against z big slump in
cuStOTs receipts. which they expect by
retaining the internal var rev, nue taxes.
No concealment IS made in official cir
cies that g very large part OF these war
taxes are to remain permanent anyhow. Il
was said II the Treasury Department to
day that it would be many years re-
fore all the taxes were taken of. L was
also learned from high Treasury officials

Bill Imposing Corporal Punishment
on wives in Delaware.

DOVER, Del. Jan. 30.-Much interest
centres IN the Ewing bill providing for the

Ience, abuse. maltreat, or beat her hus-
band, she shall be deemed guilty Of a mis-
demeanor and upon conviction thereof shall
be punished By being whipped al the whip

than thirty lashes by the sheriff Of the
county in which said crime Is committed
or By the husband at his election.

ment bill providing for secret whiplAags

fore such allotment is very similar TO that

BY the law is so out Of harmony with that

so little intrinsic value, as wei as in
compatible with any common system Of
