LAWYERS WANT ACOURT
OF PATENT APPEALS
American Bar Association Leaves
Trademarks Out of the Scheme.

HOT SPRINGS, Va, Aug. 28.-The
America Bar association today elected
the following officers: James Hager-
man, Missouri, president; John Hinck-
ley, Maryland, secretary; Fred F.
Wadhams, New York, treasurer.
The report of the committee on pat
ent, trademark and copyright law rec
commended the establishment of a
court of patent appeals by congress for
the determination of patent. trademark
and copyright cases, having jurisdic-
ton of all appeals and writs of error
in those cases, it's decisions to be final
subject only to such power of review
by the supreme court as shall be neces-
sary to preserve the jurisdiction vested
in that court by the constitution. The
draft of a bill for the creation of the
court accompanied the report The bill
provides for a court of seven judges,
the chief justice to be appointed by
the president from among the circuit
judges; the chief justice Of the SUI
preme court of appeals to designate
the other six from among the judges
of the United States circuit courts.
The association finally adopted the
report of the committee, with an
amendment that the subject of trade
marks be eliminated from the proposed
jurisdiction of the proposed court. A
committee was appointed to report on
the advisability of the formation Of
an International bar association, the
committee to report at the meeting
next year, which will be at st. Louis,
in connection with the International
Lawyers congress.

IMMIGRATION is INCREASING.
Western Passenger Association Report
Shows [ aroe Gain

According to E. E. Macleod, chairman
of the Western Passenger association, i'm
migration this year will greatly exceed
that of any previous year. Mr.. Macleod
in discussing the influx of Europeans into
America said:
The reports received by me so far show
that on the whole we are getting a better
class of aliens than in former years. The
number coming from Southern Europe,
mainly Italians. is decreasing. and the
number from Germany and Scandinavia
is increasing. The Germans, SwedeS and
NorWegianS, as a rule, are going to the
Northwest and Southwest to engage in
farming.
Most of the italians go to the large
cities, and the Poles and Huns to the
Pennsylvania coal fields. Twenty per cent
of all the immigrants who arrived here
last year declared their future home would
be in New York state. The great major
ity of them never went away from the
city of New York Chicago got about s
per cent of the total immigrants to the
United States in 1902
In the first seven months of 1900 the
Western railroads received from the sales
same period this year the receipts from
ticket sales to immigrants amount to
$705,513, showing that this year nearly
twice as many immigrants are coming as
came in 1900. The increase in the num-
Der of immigrants is not due to any de-
crease in rates made by the railroads or
increase in the payment of commissions
to European immigration agents. Author
tiles on immigration say the increase is
rope of the remarkable prosperity of the
United States and the opportunities for
everybody willing to work to get profitable
employment here.

SULTAN ORDERS A SHOW
AT ANY OLD TIME
His Actors Wear Military Uniforms and
Are Subject to Duty at All Hours.

The sultan of Turkey has his own Way
of thinking his theatrical pleasures. An
account of the performances given before
him was recently made public by one who
was long attached to the palace staff and
it reads like the exaggerations of a comic
opera librettist.
The power that controls all these per
formances is Arturo Stravolo, known sim
ply as Arturo, who came from Naples
some years ago and settled with his faith
er, mother, sisters and brothers and sis
ters-1n-law in Constantinople. He was for
merly dialect comedian in Naples.
He is prime favorite with the sultan.
The other actors are called to the palace
to perform not oftener than once month
Arturo acts at least weekly.
AS the sultan Is very fond of variety
and will rarely consent to witness the
same performance twice, it is necessary
to provide constant change. To do this
one of the Stravolos is always travelling
through the European capitals at the ex-=
pense OF his patron seeking novelties.
All of the Sultan's actors must wear
certain uniform. They have military
organization. Angelo is a LIEUTENANT:
the Violinist. Luigi, is captain the bari
tone, Gaetano, is major, and the tenor
take place at no fixed time, but whenever
it occurs to the sultan that he would like
to see show. Thus the company, like
soldiers, must always be ready to march.
Frequently the director of the orchestra
Amanda Pasna, will be notified in the
middle of the night that he must come to
the palace as quickly as possible He
learns on arriving that his majesty desires
to hear I'm Ballo in Maschera," or some
other opera. AS the sultan's wish is a
command. the opera begins within half an
hour.
The sultan sits entirely alone as a rule,
,oi,a H. r 10
play or opera is not clear, he halts the
performers until 1t is explained to him.

TO CHARGE FOR STORAGE.
Railroads May Levy Demurraee Tax or
Freiqht Left in Warehouses,

st. Paul and Minneapolis merchants
will soon be obliged to pay demurrange
charges on freight stored in Twin City
railroad warehouses, if the plans of the
Minnesota Car Service association be-
come operative 1t is the intention of
the association, it is said to adopt the
new rules governing the storage of freight
sometime before the first of the year.
Up to the present time no charge has
been made by the railroads for the stor-
age of freight in their warehouses. Space
has been given to the Twin City mer-
chants without cost, whenever there was
room in. the large freight sheds.
But the roads, it is claimed, have de-
cided to do away with the free storage,
and will soon issue an order informing
the merchants and shippers of st. Paul
and Minneapolis that charge will be
made for goods left in the freight sheds
after a specified time.
Action of a similar nature has already
been taken by the roads entering Chi
cago. and last week the Wisconsin Car
Service association did away with free
warehouse privileges by adopting a scale
of demurrage charges.
According to ST. Paul freight man,
the scale agreed upon by the Wisconsin
association will be made operative in St.
Paul and Minneapolis. 1t calls for pen
atty of cents a ton per day for all
freight left in the warehouse after the
expiration of seventy-two hours.

to spend a few days with his parents
prior to leaving for the Pacific coast,
where he expects to make his future
home. DR.. Millett is a gradute of the
state university and was appointed to
the position at the prison little more
than year ago.

WILL CUT RATES FOR
centennial JUBILEE
Chicago Lines to Make So Rate
for Windy City CeIebra-
ton.

Residents of st. Paul and Minneapo-
lis and the Northwest will have one
more chance this fall to go from the
Twin Cities to Chicago and return for
IS, or less than a cent a mile.
The So round "trip rate will be put in
by all Chicago roads on account of the
Chicago Centennial celebration, from
already received circulars announcing
the rate.
The rate from all points where the
one-way fare to Chicago is $3.50 or
less will be q fare and third. Tickets
will be on sale Sept. %. 20 and 80, with
Oct as return limit
Where the one-way fare is more
than $3.50 the rate will be one fare
with a minimum of Sc for the round
trip. This will mean an So round trip
rate from the Twin Cities to Chicago,
for it is generally admitted by traffic
men that the So one-way rate cannot
be taken out before the last of Sep
TENDER. The tickets will be on sale
Sept 26, 81 and 2S. with Oct. as a
return limit.
The Chicago centennial jubilee is ex-
events of the year. There will be a
military parade in honor of President
Roosevelt, in which troops from the
principal forts in the West will partici-
pate, as we'll as the Illinois state mill
tia and uniformed organizations from
all parts of the country.
The So round-trip rate to Chicago for
this occasion will probably mark the
last of the exceptionally low rates to
Chicago for several years. The roads
are tired of the So one-way rate, and
it will undoubtedly be taken out soon
after the Chicago centennial. None Of
the roads have made anything by the
rate, as it has creased absolutely no
new traffic.

GEN. MILES AND
JEFFERSON DAVIS
Georgia State OFFICIAL Shows His lgno-
rance of the Facts Concerning Them.

There is one man who has a warmer
feeling toward Gen Miles than Mr.. Roose-
welt. B. M. Blackburn, secretary OF state
of Georgia, decorated the capitol with
federate generals in celebration OF Gen.
Miles retirement, says the Springfield
Republican. This is because it fell to
the lot of Gen Miles to be Davis jailer
at Fortress Monroe, and put irons on him.
Mr.. Davis himself complained bitterly not
only of the fact that letters were placed
upon him, and he was imprisoned in a
cell but of what he called, the ill-breed-
ing of a Yankee boor. The facts as to the
detention of Mr.. Davis have been often set
forth 1t was ordered under the procla-
nation of Andrew Johnson charging the
assassination of Lincoln to Davis: No
one now believes Mr.. Johnson justified in
that charge, and Mr.. Davis said after his
capture that there was one man (John-
false, because ''he must know that I
would prefer Lincoln to him.
But wrong or not, the orders were i'm
perative from Gen. Halleck, and Assist
visiting Fortress Monroe directed Gen.
Miles to place manacles and letters upon
the hands and feet of Jefferson Davis and
Clement G. Clay whenever he may think
prisonment more secure There were
plots for Davis release, and he himself
showed that he was active enough to
take advantage of them, and light
'anklets' We're put on. and kept on dur
ing a period of five days, while wooden
doors were removed from the entrance to
the room which he occupied, and plated
doors substituted
The cell was one of the classmates in
the fortress occupied by one of the Of
fiers with his family, who moved out for
Mr.. Davis. These are the facts. and there
was published two years ago a pamphlet
on the subject containing letters from
Mrs Davis thanking Gen Miles for his
courtesy. There are probably few old
Confederates who do not know all this.
years of the war and is hotter in proper
ton to his ignorance. 1t is stated in a
dispatch in the New York Times, that
planned the reason of the decorations, and
asked for three cheers for the retirement
of the man who manacled Davis but the
legislators refused to cheer.'-Pittsburg

MANILA, Aug 2S.-The new educa-

appropriates $4,000 to cover the ex-
pense of the first year. 1t provides that
100 of the best qualified students Sc
curing at least rs per cent on each
subject at an annual examination to be
held in each school district shall have
the privilege of going to the United
States to complete their education at

to the pupils of public schools and to
Filipinos of from sixteen to twenty one
years and physically sound.
These students are required to take
the oath of allegiance, promising, with
the approval of their parents, to faith
fully study for the full course and
upon returning to the Philippines to
take a civil service examination, ac-
cepting later, if successful, an appoint
