ROOT AND SHAW
ARE IN QUANDARY.
German Tariff Treaty Ends in Seventy
one Days and congress Has Shown
No Signs of Change.

WASHINGTON, D. G., Dec. 49,
Secretary Root is In conference with
Secretary Shaw and some Of the GUS

At the expirati ton OF seventy one days
the present trading relations with Ger

in sentiment. Hence the necessity for
arranging a modus yiyendi if that can
be done.

The Providence Gas company, through
it's attorneys. Edwards e. Angel. today
filed demurrers TO the two indictments
found against II for pollutng Providence
river and harbor. Judge Wilbur overruled
the demurrers and the cases will now go
90 the appellate division OF the supreme

and had the attorney general bring the
action OF the company TO the attention
OF the grand jury.
The grounds OF demurrer follow:
THE offence set forth In said indict-
ment In not an offence for which an in
dictment will lie under the laws OF this
state
The penalty imposed by the laws of
this state for committing the offence
wherewith the defendant Is by said in
dictment charged cannot. under the laws
of this state be recovered by indictment.
THE indictment charges the defendant.
in the same court, with the commission
OF separate and distinct offences.
The indictment does not allege that the
oil. tar, water gas tar and other noxious
and defiling materials and products
which the defendant is charged with al
lowing TO escape into and permitted 10
he deposited in the waters in the Provi-
dence river and harbor were permitted to
he so deposited by persons under the con-
troll OF the defendant. or allowed 20 es-
cape from the premises OF the defendant
or from premises under its control. or
that II was in any way within the power
OF the defendant 10 control or prevent
the escape or deposit OF said oil, tar,
water gas tar and other noxious and de-
films materials and products into said
waters
The ownership Of the premises denied
by the oil. tar. water gas tar and other
noxious and defiling materials and pro-
ducts in the indictment mentioned IL not
alleged in the indictment.
Wherefore the defendant prays judg-
ment and that II may be dismissed and
discharged from the premises in said IN
dlctment specified"
These grounds OF demurrer apply TO
both indictments.
