LILLEY APPEARS BACKWARD.
Attorney Argues Against Producing
Letters-speeches Made.

The House committee in the submarine
inquiry having ordered Representative
Lilley, Of Connecticut, TO produce his pri-

the committee and members Of the House,

Boat Company, was reported i'll. and he
will be heard another day. II the COM
mittee still adheTes TO its determination
to enforce its order.
Nj Brown took the ground that the
scope Of the resolution introduced by Mr..
Lilley did not convey to the committee
the power 20 compel the presentation of
letters that did not bear on the subject
Of inquiry
Mr.. L4ttleton emphasized the statement
that there was not line Of evidence in
the record which supported any charge
by Representative Lilley against the Elec-
trio Boat Company. It needed no COM
ment from any member Of the committee
TO carry to mind the conviction that the
committee itself was conscious that the
bottom had dropped from the case.

edged defeat In his final appearance on

NEW JERSEY HAS TAX RIGHT.
Supreme Court Rules that Agree
ment Does Not AbrOgate.

The Supreme Court yesterday sustained
the validity Of the taxes imposed by the
State Of New Jersey on the submerged
lands in New York Bay belonging 10 the
Central Railroad OF New Jersey.
The land is valued at $2.500,0O0. The
railroad resisted the imposition OF taxes,
on the ground that the State. having sur
rendered to New York jurisdiction land
up to low water mark. the former had
no right to impose taxes.
Under the agreement between New
York and New Jersey. made in 1894 and
confirmed by Congress, the boundary line
between the two States was fixed IN the
middle Of the Hudson River and New
York Bay. Exclusive jurisdiction over
the waters and the land between the
boundary and the low water mark on the
New Jersey side was given to New York,
except that New Jersey was to have ex-
elusive right Of property in such land
and over wharves or docks built on it
then or thereafter and retained her fish
ing rights.
In delivering the unanimous opinion.
Justice Holmes. said the boundary line
fixed by the agreement of 1884 was the
line Of sovereignty.
