lition of all fees at the Scottish univers-

the faculties of science, medicine, his

ordinary class fees of Scottish students,

will be spent in extending lactureships

PITTSBURG, Pa, June 5.-Just be-
fore final adjournment tonight the
Reformed Presbyterian synod of Amer
lea, refused to accede to the request
of the Federation of Labor Unions of
Chicago to pray for the eight hour
working day.
The resolution adopted on the sub
ject expresses sympathy for the laborer
in his struggle for the betterment of his
condition, but condemns the secret ma
ture of labor unions and says Sabbath
meetings are destructive of spiritual
life.
At the morning session of the synod
to-day the discussion of the woman's
association plea for title to the home
for the aged was continued and finally
referred to the synod of next year for
disposition. In the meantime the wo-
mans association is directed to submit
its charter to the highest legal court
in Allegheny to see if property held by
the association will be thoroughly safe
guarded to the church The finance
committees report was then adopted.
The afternoon session was devoid of
public interest and at the evening ses-
sion, after the adoption of the labor
resolution, the synod closed to meet in
Syracuse next year.

PARKERSBURG, w. Va, June s.
Before the supreme Court at Wheel
ing tomorrow will be argued a case
which is reminder of the early days
of the oil production in this section. 1t
is the case of the West Virginia Trans
portation Company against the Stan
dard Oil Co. for 100000 damages. The
West Virginia Transportation Company
was the first company to transport oil
through iron pipes in the history of
the oil production. 1T laid a pipe line
from the Volcano oil field to Parkers-
burg and for many years this was the
only outlet for the Volcano oil Later
the Eureka Pipe Line Co. was organic
ed and gradually absorbed the business
OF the West Virginia Transportation
Co. until the latter company was COM
PEELED to make an assignment for the
benefit of its creditors. Suit was then
brought against the Standard Oil Co.,
the West Virginia Company alleging
that there was conspiracy between
the producing, shipping and refining
departments of the Standard Oil Co.,
which resulted in its failure. The case
has been decided against the West Vir-
ginia Co. in the Circuit Court, and the
Supreme Court once affirmed this de-
cision but rehearing was secured and
the case will come up tomorrow for
argument on the rehearing of the case.

VERDICT FOR DEFENDAN!
ORDERED BY The COURT.
THE WOODBURY-EDDY LIBEL SUIT
BROUGHT TO SUDDEN TERMIN-
ALTON.
DID NOT MAKE OUT A CASE.
EXCEPTIONS FILED BY MRS. WOOD
BURY'S ATTORNEYS-CASE TO
BE APPEALED.

BOSTON, June ST have examined
this libel with great care, both while
the arguments were going on and dur
ing the trial. / think the plaintiff has
sustained her case, as have already in
timated, upon the matter of publication.
AS regards the publication in the
church. there is no evidence that any
one there understood the alleged libel
as applying to the plaintiff so that she
could not recover damages upon this
count, because she had shown no in
jury from it.
Taking the libel itself, see moth
to indicate the plaintiff in the first part
of the libel. The only thing in the IL
bel it seems to me, which can by any
reasonable Interpretation he said to
serve as means of identification are
widow and 'widowhood,' which occur
in the latter part of the message.
Il have come to the conclusion that
even that reference does not absolutely
identify the plaintiff, and it seems to
me that the plaintiff has not made out
a case here which l can let go to the
jury l shall therefore be obliged to
order verdict for the defendant"
With these words, in the Superior
Court, Judge Charles U. Bell this after
noon brought to a sudden and unex-
pected end the famous $15O,O00 libel suit
brought by Mrs. Josephine Curtis
Woodbury., of Boston, against the Rev.
Mary Baker Eddy, of Concord, N. H.,
the founder and the present head Of the
Christian Science Church.
A few minutes later the jury which
had been excluded while arguments
were being made, was summoned into
the court room After explaining brief
ly the cause for this course, Judge Bell
ordered the jury to find for the defend
ant, which it accordingly did in the US
ual form.
Counsel for Mrs. Woodbury. filed ex-
ceptions on all the questions passed up
on. They have not yet decided upon
a definite course OF action. but author
lied it to be stated that they expect to
carry the case to the Supreme Court.
This far-reaching decision Of Judge
Bell was given in response to one Of
two motions offered by Mr.. Elder, sem
ior counsel for Mrs. Eddy. This was
that a verdict for the defendant be or
dered on the evidence as it stood. The
other motion, not sustained, was that
the two counts in the declaration refer
ring to the publication in the two
Christian Science periodicals be strick-
en- out.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
Banquet In London Not Notable for
Brilliant Aftcr-Dtnner Speeches.

BANQUET in London Not Notable for
Brilliant Aftcr-Dtnner Speeches.
LONDON, June 5.--The banquet ten
dered by the London Chamber OF Com
merce to the delegates of the New YORK
Chamber at Grocers' Hall tonight, was
one of the handsomest affairs of the
kind ever given in a city famed for
lavish hospitality. No effort was SPAR
ed TO honor the American gusts: but It
must be confessed that the latter did
not sustain the reputation America has
for brillian after-dinner speaking. Nor
did the British speakers do much to re-
lieve the tedium of four hours speak
ing.
Al the speeches, however, teemed
with extreme friendliness and faith.
Lord Brassey presided. Nearly three
hundred were present. In welcoming
the delegates, Lord Brassey, said We
welcome them as the representatives or
the skill and praise which have turn
ed the vast resources of the American
continent to the service OF mankind. We
are largely sharers In these benefits.
Our teeming millions could not live
without the food America produces and
the raw materials for our industries.
"To no other nation are we drawn as
we are to our kinsmen across the At
lantic."
Mr.. Carnegie, who had the best re-
ception OF the evening, then rose. He
dwelt upon the Importance of the grow
ing friendly relations between the two
countries.
