OYSTER LONGING LEGAL.
Bivalves May Now Be Taken From
the Public Beds.

From today the taking of oysters in the
shell from the public beds in the Wicom-
leo river and other tributaries of the
Potomac and Chesapeake bay in Virginia
and Maryland will be legal. and large
number of oystermen, who up to this
time have not put tongs overheard. will
start to work. 1t is stated that by the
end of the coming week the number of
tongers at work in the river and its
tributaries will be about twice as large
as it is now. The catch of oysters will
be considerably increased by the addition
to the forces engaged in taking them
from their salty abiding places. but the
oyster season will not be in full swing
until the dredging season opens in the
middle of the coming month. There Is
a good supply Of oysters. fine in quality,
being received at the local market, and
they are selling at prices ranging from
80 to 60 cents per bushel.
The cool weather of the past three or
four days has had revivifying effect on
the oyster market, which was nearly
killed by the continued warm weather of
last week.

Or. SHAW SEES BALL GAME
ENGLISH SCIENTIST CONSIDERS
FANS ARE PARTISAN.
Cricket a Much More Placid Sport,
He Says-Thinks Cook and
Peary Both Found Pole.

DR.. William Napier Shaw. F. r. s..
director CT the British meteorological
service. was initiated yesterday evening
into the mysteries of the great American
game of base ball, and he had the rare
opportunity OF seeing the fans of Wash
ington while the Nationals were winning
two games.
"Of course, base ball is little out of
my line" he said last night at the Shore
ham to a reporter for The Star; but it
IS intensely interesting. l did not stay
long enough to become even partially
familiar with the game. l was much in
terested in the crowds; they seemed so
enthusiastic over the playing. But there
seemed to me to be evidence Of consider
able craftsmanship. Our English game OF
cricket is much more placid sport than
base ball.
Speaking of the north pole controversy.
DIR. Shaw said that he felt certain that
both Cook and Peary reached the pole,
and, as far as he could see, there was
nothing In the accounts of either explorer
that contradicted their assertions. ~
think 1t was very unfortunate he said.
that they did not arrange meeting to
talk things over before they rushed into
print and started such a controversy.
Your bureau of standards and weather
bureau and other similar public inst1tu-
tions compare very favorably with thOse
of Europe. 1 was much interested in WIS.,
iting them. OF course. your centers are
much younger. but to make up for 1t they
are fitted up with the very latest Of APP
planes and instruments. and dare say
they are every bit as efficient as their
older European colleagues
Il want to express my appreciation OF
the uniform courtesy which | have met in
all the government scientific institutions
I have visited. They have all been very
considerate. This is my first visit to
America, but have wanted to come here
for a long time. l am enjoying my visit
very much"

INJUNCTION SUITS DISMISSED
PRESS ASSOCIATIONS MAY USE
PRESENT NAMES.
Justice Gould's Decision Affecting
Rights of Local and New York
News Gathering Concerns.

The United Press Associations of New
York and the United Press Association.
incorporated in the District of Columbia.
the latter having succeeded to the bust
ness of William Wolff Smith, local cor
respondent, may each continue to run Its
respective business under its corporate
name, according to an opinion of Justice
Ashley NJ. Gould of the District Supreme
Court. rendered yesterday.
Justice Gould dismisses the suit for in
junction filed by the local corporation,
which claimed that it first adopted the
name and that its business was being ad-
versely affected by the use Of the closely
similar name by the New York corpora
ton. He also refused cross-injunction
asked by the New York company, which
claimed that the business conducted by
the local concern was not such as is
usually carried on by press assocla-
ton.
The court holds that the mere similarity
in names is not sufficient ground for the
extraordinary writ of injunction and that
the testimony does not bear out the allie
cation that Mr.. Smiths corporation. has
suffered any pecuniary loss by reason OF
the use of the name by the New York
corporation.
AS between the tive corporations. the
Justice declares, the New York company
has the stronger claim to the name. be-
cause the name describes more accurately
the business conducted by it than the
business of the local concern, which
seemed to be the dissemination of news
from Washington by letter and not the
gathering of news generally and Its trans
mission by wire to members Of the asso-
citation.
In dismissng the cross-petition Justice
Gould says the testimony does not show
that the words United Press Association
have an established and accepted mean
ing as an association for the collection
and dissemination or news of a certain
quality and character. nor that the Wash
ington company is fraudulently using the
name fol the purpose of collecting and
disseminating news Of an inferior quality
or character, nor that the New York
company has suffered loss by the bust
ness of the Washington company. This
failure of proof. the court concludes.
compels the dismissal OF the cross-pett-
ton for Injunction.
