THE HIGHEST TRIBUNAL DE-
CIDES AGAINST PRISONERS,
contractors Who COnspirVl With
Capt. Carter In Government Work
Denied Writ of CcrtiOrari.

DSIheu VIII Oh CcrtlOrQr1.
Washington, Dec. 23.-.The su-
preme court Of the United States to-
day denied the petitions Of writs of
certiorari bringing to that court the
cases OF Benjamin G.. Greene and Jno.
F. Gaynor, who are under sentence
to pay fine of $575,749 and to un-
dergo terms Of imprisonment Of four
fraud the United States in connection
with Capt. Oberlin M. Carter to de-
fraud the United tSates in connection
with the harLor improvements at sa-
vannah, Ga.
Carter has served a term oi impris-
onment on these charges. Greene and
Gaynor were tried by the United
States distict court for the southern
district of Georgia and on April I2,
1905, were found guilty on the two
charges Of conspiracy and embezzle-
ment and both were sentenced on the
same day, the amount of the fine i'm
posed representing the sum which is
charged to have been appropriated.
They appealed the case to the United
States circuit court OF appeals for the
fifth circuit, and when that court af-
frmed the verdict Of the trial court.
they presented their petition to the su-
preme court for a writ of certiorari.
bringing the entire case to that court
for review.
This petion went at length into the
question Of the extradition from Can
ada and urged the fact that because
the case involved "the relations of
this nation to foreign nations" the SUI
preme court was bound under the
federal constitution to take corni.
zance Of the matter. notwithstanding
the case had been passed upon by the
court OF appeals. Many important
questions were presented by the case
In addition to that Of extradition. in
Guiding the one as to whether a per-
son charged with embezzlement in
one State (New York; can be legally
tried In another State (Georgia) as
Greene and Gaynor were. and also the
question as to whether a man charg.
ed with an "tfense in two districts, as
Green and Gaynor were. can be re.
garded as q fugitive from justice
when he remains in one OF them.
The point also was raised that the
cases were barred by the statute of
limitations. "As," said their brief
the three years statute of limitation
applies to the crime charged. it is evil
dent that in July, 1901. three years
having elapsed. the bar OF the staA-
utes had interviewed, unless the defen-
dants came within the excep ption to it
as persons fleeing from justice"
The effect Of the denial of the pe-
tition for a review by the supreme
court has the effect Of leaving in force
the decision of the district court. The
courts decision was announced by
Chief Justice Fuller and there was no
written opinion.

CARING FOR DISH CLOTHS.
How One Young Housekeeper Solved

Dish rags are the great difficulty that
beset the careful housekeeper in her
efforts to keep a clean and tidy kitch-
en-. They are drying on the hook and
hanging on the sink, and somehow 8
towel used for pots and pans is always
damp. Then time must be taken from
the general work to wash them out
and dry them, and altogether they are
most extremely annoying.
All these things and more, too, were
discovered by a careful young house
keeper, so she arranged to have dish
in the outer kitchen filled with good
clear water and some washing soda,
and into this mixture the cloths were
dropped Immediately after using and
there they were left till evening, when
they were hung up where they might
dry over night
OF course, enough towels must be on
hand, so that the same one need not
be used more than once a day, but
at least they are always clean and the
kitchen is always in order
