Toe Supreme Court of the United
States on Monday decided what is known
as the Fourteen Diamond Rings Case"
involving the right of the Government to
collect customs duty on goods brought
into the United States from the Philip
pines. The Court held that the collection
of duty was illegal, the Philippines having
become American territory upon the
signing of the treaty of Paris.
The Court also passed upon the consti-
nationality of the duties collected upon
goods shipped to Porto Rico from the
United States. 1t was held that the duty
was legal, but that it was in reality tax
for the benefit of the Porto Rican, and
not an export tax.

MAY BUY TENNESSEE COAL.
Steel Trust said 80 BE Preparing to
Expand.

NEW YORK, Aug 10-It is reported
in well informed quarters that the Unit
ed States Steel corporation has made GER
tain advances to the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company, and allied industries in
the South, by which all the Southern
iron and steel works will come under the
control of the United States Steel cor
poration, says the Tribune. While the re-
port mentioned could not be verified in
official quarters, it was said on excellent
authority that negotiations have been
under way for the past year for the
purchase by the big steel trust Of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company. 1t Is
also learned that leading interests In the
United States Steel corporation have been
in conference with the banking powers
behind the Tennessee Coal and Iron com
pany, but the result of the conference
has not yet been made known.
A few months ago the United States
Steel corporation submitted certain pro-
posaIs to the Tennessee Coal and Iron
company, and the negotiations were IN
der wav at the time of the first outbreak
of the Amalgamated association.
If the United States Steel corporation
can secure the various iron and steel
works in the South, the Amalgamated
association may find it difficult to make
a success of its present efforts to tie up
the steel and iron industry of the coun-
try. 1t may be. therefore, that the Ten
nessee Coal and Iron company will be
an important factor in the settlement of
the strike.

BERLIN, Aug. IO.-AH eyes in Germany

slight, and she did everything possible
to retire from public view and avoided

The latter fact mas softened the judg-

ais praise her activity In promoting
female education and in the advancement
OF women. The most conservative papers
praised the latter feature Of her char

GATES COUNTY GOES.
Judge vinje Holds Acts Creating II
Was CONSTITUTIONAL

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Aug. 10
Judge Vinje. of the circuit court, has rem
dered his decision in the Gates county
case. He held the act creating the coun-
ty to be constitutional, and ruled against
the plaintiffs in the case on every point
that they raised against the constitution
atty of the act The plaintiffs were
heavy taxpayers of old Chippewa coun-
ty, who own land in both counties now.
They objected to being compelled to pay
taxes that would go for the support Of
two county governments, and to get out
of this tried to have the act declared
void. They raised four points. They
argued that the legislature had no right
to so apportion the state that one as
emily district would be crossed by the
boundaries of two counties; that the fix
ing of the county seat by the legisla
ture was Illegal, and that the governor
should have signed the act while the leg
islature was in session. They alleged
that the governor had no right to ap-
point the county officials. In rendering
his decision, Judge Vinje holds that the
legislature had every right that it ex-
ercised in the passing of the act and N
the giving of the powers. The case will
be appealed by Sanborn, Luse & Pow
ell, who appeared for the plaintiffs John
