SURETY COMPANY RULING.
Treasury Defines When It's Officials
May Accept Bonds

Washington, Dec. 30.-Of interest to
surety companies doing business with the
United States is a ruling to-day by AS
sistant Secretary Hilles of the Treasury
Department, that it's officers may accept
a bond if executed by such a company at
its home office or at an Office outside the
boundaries of the state where it has no
license for principal living in such state
or for the performance of contract
therein This follows an opinion of the
Attorney General, to whom the question
was referred
The Assistant Secretary also holds that
such bonds running to the United States
are valid and enforceable against the
company whether not it maintains an
agency in the state in which the principal
lives, and that the execution of a bond
in this manner would not be doing bust
ness within the state in the meaning of the
law.
Under existing Treasury regulations
bond cannot be accepted by any of it's
officers if executed by a surety company
or its agent in a state where the COM
pany has not obtained state license.

CONSULS TO EXCESS.
Nicaragua Has T1oo Of Them
NOzc. Each zcith Seal.

The interest in the local Nicaraguan situa-
ton, enlivened few days ago by the
moval, or rather the effort to remove Pho
Bolanos, consul of Nicaragua in this city,
and his subsequent refusal 10 relinquish
the office, was increased yesterday by the
action taken by President Madriz to
freeze out Seipor Bolanios. Minister Gen
eral Francisco Baca cabled yesterday from
Managna to Adolf d. Straus, a commission
merchant in this city, instructng him to
act as counsul in place of Senor Boianos.
Sefor Bolanos, who refused to be frozen
out, and Mr.. Straus. each said he was the
legal consular representative of Nicaragua.
Seflor Bola1os, who has held the Office for
seven years, announced that he would fight
the appointment of Mr.. Straus
I'VE are personally friendly he said.
but l will fight to the last this effort OF
an unconstitutional government to deprive
me of my rights, which | enjoy under let
ters patent from a constitutional govern
ment and an exequatur from President
Roosevelt which has not yet been re-
voked. and is not likely TO be on the mere
cable appointment OF my successor"
Mr.. Straus. who is not Nicaraguan, has
been honorary consul general for the time
that Senor Bolanos has been the active
consul He is the senior member of the
firm of a d. Straus & Co. No. IS Broad
way. He went to Nicaragua in 1854 with
the Walker expedition as correspondent of
The New Orleans Picayune." Before the
coming here of Senior Bolanos Mr.. Straus
had acted as consul general under an eX-
equatur signed by President Mckinley. He
also retains the old seal that he used on
invoices at that time
Senor BolaIios saws Mr.. Straus can sign
invoices for only two ports-Oorinto and
San Juan del Sur. on the Pacific side. the
Atlantic coast being in the hands of the
insurrectionists. And as shipments go now
with the internecine strife raging. Mr.
| Straus will hardly have much use for the

PROTEST TO SENATE.
Its Right to Publish Tariff
Defence Questioned.
GFrom The Tribune Bureau. ]

Washington, Dec. 30.-The publication by
the Senate of Representative McCalrs ar
tice in defence of the Payne tariff law was
the subject of protest made day to the
secretary of the Senate. The Mccall art-
Gle printed originally in a maga-
zine. The publisher OF this magazine
serts that all matter appearing in his pub
lication is protected by the copyright laws,
and he has written to the secretary of the
Senate asking on what authority the Sen
ate reprinted copyrighted article, thing
which private individual would be al
lowed to do without the consent of the
copyright owner. In the tariff debates last
year an article written by Andrew Carne-
gle which appeared in a copyrighted maga-
zine reprinted as a House document
Later it was Learned that permission for
such reprint had not been granted by the
owner Of the copyright, and the issue of
the pamphlet was delayed until this per-
mission could be obtained
The Mccall article, which is a strong de-
fence of the rates of duty in the Payne
law, will be we'll advertised when all its
troubles arc over. In the first print of this
document by the government a serious
typographical error was made. which
alarmed those who voted for the Payne
schedules Many copies had been sent OUT
by Senators and Representatives before
Representative Cooper, of Pennsylvania,
discovered that the printer had used the
word increased In place OF decreased.
The first print made 1t appear that the
Payne law was blessing because 1t had
Increased" duties on necessary articles
consumed by the American people to the
amount of 5000, oO00O. When this error
was discovered the publca ton was ordered
suppressed and a new print of the correct
document was made. 1t is possible that the
Senate may take some action to square
itself with the publisher who has protest
ed against the use of his copyrighted arti-
Gle without his permission

Ernest Iindeman was reinstated as a
police captain by the Appellate Division
of the Supreme Court in Brooklyn yester-

MOVES MAY
PROTEST AGAIN
Demmitt's Action in Stop
ping Hit With Thrown
Glove Thought Illegal.

President Tom Noyes, of the Washing
ton baseball club, will probably start an
inquiry into the published reports that
Demmitt, the New York outfielder,
threw up his glove in the tenth inning
yesterday and stopped what looked like
a sure home run made by UEgIaub for
Washington.
The reports state that because Of Dem
mitt's great luck in hitting the flying
sphere Unglaub was deprived of a
homer, as he got to third on the play.
Should this prove the case there may
be room for a serious protest CT the
game, although Manager CantiIlon has
not yet been heard from. Rule "a of the
American League playing rules provides
in section 1 that: The base runner
shall be entitled. without liability to
be put out. to advance a base in the
following cases."
Section s, Of the same rule. says: IF
the fielder stop or catch a batted ball
with his cap, glove, or any part OF his
uniform, while detached from its proper
place on his person"
Should his investigation prove that
Demmitt did stop the bail, and thereby
and tieing the score. Mr.. NOyes viii
pf Cbably appeal to President Johnson,
of the American League, to have the
decision of Umpires Sheridan and KERN
set aside and the game played over, as
New York, in its half of the tenth in
ming, made a run with which IL is cred
tied with winning the game, by to 1.
