MAY COMPROMISE SUIT
DIAMOND MATCH COMPANY MAKES
 OVERTURES.
Reported That Alleged Trust is Willing to Pay Amount of States Claim
 for Violating the Law.

The Diamond Match Company, of New York. against whom a suit by the State Is now pending in the Montgom- cry City Court to recover for alleged violation of the State corporation laws, for doing business without filing a copy of its charter, is reported to have made some sort of overtures to the State.
 What the terms of the compromise will be sifted down to is not known. but 1t is hinted that the State may re- ceive the full amount of its claim.
 The suit was brought in the latter part of April by the State through At- torney General Massey Wilson and Soli- citor s. H. Dent, of Montgomery Coun- ty. They represented that the Dia- mand Match Co.,, commonly known as the match trust. in February of this year had a representative in Montgom- cry who visited several jobbers and bought up stocks of matches sold them by the Indiana Match Company, an in- dependent concern, and replaced them by articles manufactured by the alleged trust. Later the Diamond Match Com pany's representatives are alleged to have returned the matches of the in- dependent concern and sold them also.
 Unless the rumored compromise Is effected the hearing of the suit will take place before Judge A. D. Sayre, of tn ecivil division of the Montgomery City Court in the early part of June.

 The second paper dealing with all other countries on the continent reach ed the conclusion that State or muni- cipal aid is granted light railways and in most instances the State or munich pality directs their operation. Both papers indicate profit to the State through their cooperation in light railways.
 In section one, where crossties are still under consideration, Gofford Pin- chott, chief of the United States bu- reau of the forestry, stated that the annual consumption of the crossties in this country for steam railroads alone was 110,000,000 ties In section 3, the conclusion was reached regarding bag gage and express parcels that the sys- tenn in vogue in each country seemed to meet the needs of that country and no changes were recommended. Sir Charles owens, General Manager, Lon don and Southwestern Railways, Eng land, criticised the method of baggage handling in this country.
 The delegates this afternoon visited the State, war and navy and treasury buildings and attended a reception at the German embassy.
