Robert w de Forest counsel of the Metro

Tribune reporter:
This suit was brought by Mrs. Virginia Helm
isch, half sister of Jacob s. Rogers, to set aside
the release which she signed in October, 1901,
and to open the question of the validity of Mr..
Rogers's will, by which he bequeathed his en-
tire residuary estate amounting to between
S., 100000 and $6,000U00 to the Metropolitan
Museum of Art The suit brought in the
Court of Chancery of New-Jersey. and was set
down for trial on January Is. A few days ago
counsel for Mrs. Henisch notified me that they
had withdrawn from the suit because they
found no evidence on which to sustain 1t, and
had so notified Mrs. Henisch. Mrs. Henisch
then asked permission to withdraw the suit,
which granted on condition that she should
sign appropriate instrument barring her
from ever beginning another. This she did. and
in addi.ion signed this additional statement:
81 hereby certify that I fully understand that
the foregoing consent. agreement and covenant
bars me absolutely from bringing any further

on Cuban Treaty.
rBy The Associated Press9

Washington, Jan. 9-w. s Humphrey
H H Hatch and James G. Mcpherson, repre-
senting the beet sugar interests of Michigan
held a conference to-day in the committee room
of Senator Burrows for the purpose of deciding
on a course OF action with reference to the
Cuban reciprocity treaty After the meeting
they announced that they had decided to wait
until after the Committee on Foreign Relations
should make its report on the treaty before de-
Gliding on a line OF action. They expressed them
selves in somewhat sceptical terms as TO the
possibility of securing any substantial guar
antee that there would be no reduction for the
next five years beyond the 20 per cent provided
by the treaty, saying that their principal fear
lay in the operation of the clause which pro-
tects Cuban sugar to the extent of 20 per cent
over all other sugars
They said they had made no canvass Of the
Senate and would make none until after the
committee reports.

to the Littlefeld Committee.
-[RY rELEGRApH no THE rR1RuNE. ]

[BY TELEGRAPH TO THE TR1BUNE.l
Washington, Jan 9.-The two antitrust bills.
fresh from the pen of the Attorney General
which Judge Jenkins, chairman of the Judiciary
Committee introduced in the House just before
the adjournment of that body yesterday after
noon, are undoubtedly disturbing elements of
great magnitude in the minds of the five men
who constitute the so-callcd Littlefield anti
trust subcommittee. These men are Repre-
sentatives Littlefeld, Overstreet and Powers, or
Massachusetts, Republicans, and De Almond
and Clayton, Democrats Not one of them Will
express his opinion for publication on either OF
the bills of the Attorney General. or the effect
their introduction will have on the work being
done in their committee. That not one of the
members understands the move. however, each
is frank to admit. The situation. as expressed
by of the five, after an informal conference
had been held this afternoon is this:
"The subcommittee appointed to consider all
antitrust measures which have been or are to
be introduced in the House, with a view to re-
porting measure to the full Judiciary Com
mittee has been working ever since Congress
convened, and for the last three weeks has been
working practically night and day. The very
first move of this committee was to commun1-
cate with the administration in request for its
views in writing, in the form of bill, prefer
ably, but at least In the form of written recon-
mendatons. The answer that no bill would
be forthcoming from that quarter. Later the
Attorney General, in response to a further re-
quest for his views and recommendations. sub
mitted his views in a printed pamphlet. and the
same day the President indorsed these views in
a statement given out at the White House. The
committee Immediately began the draft Of a bill
along the lines suggested by the Attorney Cen
eral Last night this bill had been practically
completed. The committee however, wishing to
see it in print before submitting it to the full
committee, adjourned until Saturday morning,
with the intention of formally taking action on
its bill at that time and authorizing its favor
able recommendation to the Judiciary Commit
tee at it's meeting Monday. No hint what
ever was given to the subcommittee either by
the Attorney General or by Chairman jenkins,
rnent of Justice the subject, that administra-
ton measures were to be presented on the sub
ject Under the authority given the sub-com-
nittee the bills introduced will come before it
for consideration at it's meeting tomorrow
Whether these bills will be factors in the report
of the subcommittee to the Judiciary Commit
tee is vet to be determined 1t may be that in
asmuch as neither of them contains any publicity
provisions and this feature being one of the
recommendations of the Attorney General as
well as of President Roosevelt, the sub-commit-
tee will feel justified in bringing the bill of It's
construction forward to the exclusion of the ad-
1ninistration measure

The House laughing at the Sendtes S
Blunder-The Joke ON Mr.. H0ar.
fly TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE.

Washington Jan. 9.-It was with quiet
chuckles that members of the House greeted
their colleagues in the upper chamber to-day
and an expression of unutterable sadness over
shadowed the countenance of every Senator.
The benignity which usually characterizes the
face of the genial senior Senator from Massa-
chusetts has given place to deepest gloom, and
the temperature of the Senate Committee on Ju-
dietary is not far from zero.
BY mutual agreement yesterday afternoon the
Senate laid the Statehood bill over until
O'Clock Monday and took up the calendar
In the of the afternoon Senate bill 4!O6S,
an act to redivide the District of Alaska into
three recording and judicial divisions was
called up, was passed over, and later taken up
again at the request of Senator Hoar. The Sen
ator then moved to amend the enacting clause
SO to make the measure operative beginning
with June Is, 1902, and the bill was passed. To-
day it was discovered that this bill was passed
by both House and Senate at the last session
of Congress- and did take effect on June Is,
1902 since which date it has been a statute Of
the United States.
The friends of Senator Hoar ascribe the error
to the fact that he is worn out with the fatigue
of drafting his antitrust measure, and say the
mistake only natural under the circun-
stances. Members of the House, however. re-
call the fact that Mr.. Hoar once introduced a
bill appropriating 100000 for the purpose of
surveying railroad line from Wrangel to Sitka.
between which points there lie two hundred
miles of the Pacific Ocean. and suggest that the
venerable Senator was merely trying to satisfy
the importunate Aiaskans. who are besieging
Congress for legislation. by re-enacting previous
laws Parliamentary errors sometimes made
in the House and referred TO by the Sena-
tors as natural in the lower chamber" but that
the dignihed Senate should commit such blum
der is past comprehension
