TAFT TO TACKLE PROBLEM.
Conservation Of Niagara Falls In
wolves Delicate Questions.

Secretary Taft is preparing to take up for
final disposition the complex questions pre-
scented to him under the terms of the Burton
act relative to the conservation of the wat
ers of the Niagara river SO as to prevent the
sacrifice of the falls to the commercial in
terests of the country Grave constitutional
questions are involved. Attorneys for the
electric lighting and power companies which
have been taking the water from the river
are insistent that the national government
has no authority to undertake to regulate
the disposition of the waters of streams
save where the navigation thereof is con-
cerned. In the case of the Niagara river
where the water is taken from the stream
above the falls only to be returned to 1t
again below, this issue is not Involved So
far, however, the right of the United States
government to regulate the admission of
currents of electricity generated ON the
Canadian side Of the river has not been
challenged. and to this question the Secre-
tary intends to first address himself.

PHILADELPHIA, December 26.-After

hauser had the Office of assistant en-
gineer.
Hornberger shot Schaffhauser in one OF
the corridors of the city hall. The MUIR
derer charged his victim with running
his wife and wrecking his home. but sub
Sequent investigation proved Schaff-
hauser innocent Of this charge and
showed that Hornberger had leveled the
same accusations at scores and that he
was insane. He is now in the Philadel-
phia Insane Hospital.

POINT FOR HAMILTON.
New York Life Insurance Company
Sued to Recover Certain Sums.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 26.-Justtce
Bischoff, in special term of the supreme
with costs, interposed by Andrew Hamilton,
commonly known as Andy Hamilton, Ito
the sufficiency of each cause of action for
an accounting in the suit Of the New
York Life Insurance Company against
Hamilton.
The New York Life Insurance Company
sued Hamilton to recover money alleged
to have been expended by him amounting
to upward of $50, 3S6.47 or any portion
thereof and also to account for the further
sum of $574 $50 which, it is alleged, he
spent for the company. Hamilton by his
counsel, Neill +. Towner, demurred to the
sufficiency of the complaint, asserting that
it did not set forth good cause of ac-
ton. In his decision Justice Bischoff says:
of said cause of action for accounting
and raises the question of misjoinder
We have merely the fact that defendant
Hamilton) was paid moneys in connection
with his employment as an attorney. The
relation SO far is declared to be simply
that of principal and against the agency
extending to the physical receipt of money"
The court held that the New York Life
Insurance Company drew its check to Ham,
ilton's order for the exact sum due for
taxes which he was to use for the payment
of these taxes to the state, that thereafter
$4,000 was paid upon these taxes by
check OF the New York Life Insurance

difference between the two checks. and
that the defendant (HamiltoL) has refused
to account for the $50,

AGAINST MADAME GOULD.
Held Jointly Responsible for Some of
Castellane's Debts.

PARIS December 26.-The three re-
naming suits brought by creditors. with
the object of making Madame Could
formerly Countess Boni de Castellane,
jointly responsible with the count for
certain claims, were decided today. The
court found that she was in no way re-
sponsible for the claims of M. Zeigler,
one of the largest creditors. He claimed
that it had been the practice of the Cas-
teIlanes ever since their marriage to
appeal to him to eXtricate them from
financial difficulties.
The court however, held Madame
Gould Jointly liable for jewels valued at
$24 900, purchased from Mile. Vera Mimi
doff of Odessa, who sold the jewels to
Count BOni through the intermediary of
a jeweler. The court also found that
Madame Gould was jointly liable for the
sum of about $4,000, the balance due to
the Hartogs for a jewelry bill amount
ing to about $4,000, provided the bill
was not padded. Three experts were
appointed to appraise the value of the
jewelry.

TEHERAN, December 26-The condition
of the shah has taken a sharp turn for the
worse and his death is expected from hour
to hour.
The Shah of Persia, MuZaffar-ed- din, was
born March %, 1853, and was the second
son of NaSr-ed-Gin, succeeding his father
in May, 1896 The heir apparent is Mo-
manned Ali Mira, Valiahd, born in 1872
The royal family is very numerous. The
present shah has six brothers and eighteen
children, of which twelve are girls. AL
though there are several thousand prin-
cesses in the present Persian dynasty, the
official year book mentions only about
hundred.
At the time Muzaffar was notified of his
fathers death he governor general of
Azerbaijan. residing in TabriZ. He arrived
in Teheran June g. 1858, accompanied by
the British and Russian consuls The shah,
whose official title is shahnshah. or king of
kings, is absolute ruler within his own do
minions, and master of the lives and goods
of all his subjects
The whole revenue of the country being
at their disposal recent sovereigns of
Persia We're able to amass a large private
fortune, but that of the present occupant
of the throne is said to amount to only
s1o,00O,o0O. most of it represented by
diamonds the largest, the Derya 1 Nur.
of 1876 carats, and the Tai Nah of LAG
carats and other precious stones forming
the crown jewels.
AS it is within the power of the Per-
sian monarchs to alter or to overruie the
existing law of succession, and to leave
the crown with disregard of the natural
heir to any member of their family, but
preference is generally given to a son
whose mother was a Kajar princess. The
mother of the present crown prince was
not Kajar princess. The present shah
has a brother who is three years his
senior.
The shah experienced some trouble in
the autumn of 1896 when the grand
vizer, encountering so much opposition
from the various members of the shaf's
encourage, found it impossible to carry
on his work and resigned. The shah i'm
mediately formed a new cabinet, COM
posed mostly of enemies of the retiring
grand vizier, but in three months the
affairs of state were in confusion, and
it was not until after Amin ed-dowleh
was made prime minister that a little i'm

BOARD OF EDUCATION
WILL CONSIDER THE REPORT ON
CARDoZo CASE

Superintendent Chancellor's long COM
munication on the CardoZo school case is
to be considered this afternoon by the
board of education. That some action in
the case will be taken is believed to be
certain. The meeting will begin at pm.
A report was circulated today to the
effect that Mr. Henry E. Davis, attorney
for Cardozo, would be present at the meet
ing to protest against the dismissal of Car
dozo for the good of the service which
was said to be a likely proceeding. Mr..
Davis denied the rumor in an interview
with Star reporter.
The order of the court directing that the
writ of mandamus issue for Cardozos re-
instatement has not yet been signed by
Justice Anderson, and, in fact, is not yet
completed. 1t is being prepared by MI
Davis. The board of education, therefore,
has not been officially notified of the ACTON
of the court, and the status OF the dls-
missed supervising principal is the same as
before the announcement of the court
decision. The board has twenty days IN
which to appeal the case, should 1t desire
to do so. OF course, it may reinstate Car
doZo at any time, thus acquleSclng In the
decision of the court
That the board will reinstate CardoZo at
once and proceed to give him trial Is said
to be probable. but it is known that Su-
perintendent Chancellor is opposed to the
trial portion of the program.
All of the members of the board, as we'll
as DIR. Chancellor are looking to Assistant
United States District Attorney Stuart NC
Namara, special counsel for the board, to
iearn what they may do legally in view of
the action of the court. 1t Is said that MI.
Namara will be present sometime during
the meeting this afternoon.

Court today filed written opinion in &C
cordance with the views expressed from
I, DIV y1p no

REGRET TO LOSE BRYCE.
Scholarly Qualities Appreciated by
People He Represented.

ABERDEEN, Scotland, December 70
James Bryce, who is to succeed Sir Mortl-
mer Durand as British ambassador at
Washington, has given his constituents here
the first definite information of his selec-
ton for the Washington post in letter
which they have just received. In this COM
munication Mr.. Bryce said that the ap-
pointment will compel him to give up his
seat for South Aberdeen.
The retirement of Mr.. Bryce causes genu-
fY1e, regret, as his scholarly qualities made
him peculiarly qualified to represent the
constituency which has the reputation on
being the most intellectual in the united
kingdom, as Aberdeen enjoys the unusual
distinction Of not having one illiterate
voter.
No plans have yet been made LOT the
choice of a successor of Mr.. Bryce in par
lament, but it probably will be made from
the literary class.
