SUIT COMPROMISED.

Rather than subject himself to tie
strain of examination on the witness
stand with its consequent publicity,
Henry II. Rogers, the Standard Oil
magnate, hss settled $50, 900 suit in
London. The details of the compro-
mise became public yesterday after a
judgment by agreement was fled for
Rogers in the suit of Oadwalsdtr M.
Raymond.
The action, which was begun four
years ago, was based on q claim for
royalties on secret process of refining
petroleum, discovered by Benjamin f.
Greenough in 1874 Raymond, to whom
Greenough's heirs assigned their claim,
held Mr.. Rogers owed him royalty on
two billion gallons of oil. Rogers, it is
said, preferred q settlement at one-tenth
per cent Of the original claim rather
than fight the suit 10 his present state of
poor health. The $50, 900 Is divided
among Raymond Greenough's widow
aud their attorneys.

TO TEST THE BYRD LAW.

John e. Bnford. representing BAlt-
more liqucr house, was selected by the
National Liquor Dealers Association to
be arrested and test the validity of the
Byrd liquor law of Virginia.
Mr.. Bintord, backed by Levi Cooke,
Of Washington, general counsel for the
association, and Samuel l.. Kelly, Of
Richmond, local COUNSEL, sent word TO
police headquarters in Richmond yester-
day that he was about to violate the
Byrd law, and Sergeant Wren was sent
to the scene. When the sergeant or.
rived Binfcrd Oft red to sell liquors by
sample to Frank Miller, q wholesale
liquor dealer. Wren called for Binford's
license, and when the agent failed to
produce it arrested him and took him
before Justice Cratchfeld, who fined
him 500 and put him under $50 security
for good behavior for 10 months.
The Byrl law requires that salesmen
shall pay $500 each ftr license from the
State TO do business in Virginia, and the
National Liquor Dealers Association is
fighting this provision of the law.
