slider victory is the decision of the
supreme court invalidating the sale
of the majority stock of the Kellogg
Switchboard and Supply company to

the American company bought the

Another case of general interest is
the setting aside of the verdict of the

over $1,000,000. Not only does the
court shatter the decision of the
lower court, but leaves no peg upon
which the contestants may hang an

CUBA WITHIN HER RIGHTS
United States Could Not Intervene in
Proposed Leqisiation.

Washington, Feb. 20.-Government
officials are not altogether surprised
over the fact that bill has been in
troduced in the Cuban house of rep
resentatives prohibiting foreigners
holding property in the island, but at
the same time say its enactment into
law would be the most unfortunate
thing that could happen for the future
prosperity of the country. The propo-
sition, should it reach the point of
enactment, is sure to meet with strong
diplomatic objection from all coun-
tries where citizens have interests in
Cuba
There is Lothing III Tie Cuban con
stitution which would prevent the
suggested legislation, but explicit pro-
vision is made that there shall not be
retroactive legislation, nor any action
that would work to the impairment of
contracts. Nor would the so called
Platt amendment, which gives the
right to the American government to
intervene in Cuban affairs to preserve
the peace, etc, operate to stem the
enactment of the bill. so that the Gu
ban government is acknowledged to
be within its rights In the matter

CASTRO DRIVEN FROM BERLIN
Great Number of Begging Letters
Forces Him to Leave.

Berlin, Feb. 20.-Cipriano Castro,
at one time president of Venezuela,
left here for Dresden, where he pur-
poses to make prolonged stay. He
came from the private sanitarium,
where he went for an operation a
fortnight ago, and he is now fully re-
stored to health.
Senior Castro left Berlin on account
of the receipt of quantities of begging
letters due to the fanciful newspaper
stories of his lavish expenditures
while in this city.
One writer demanded $125,000, of
which the first installment of $4,000
was to be sent Immediately.

MITATION Of
SECRET SERVICE
Old Provision Included In Sun.
dry Civil Bill.

Washington, Feb. 20.-Two more
disputes between the president and
congress were revived when the house
committee on appropriations reported
the sundry civil appropriation bill
One was in regard to the limitation
of the use of the secret service of
the treasury department. The other
was the appropriation for the exam.
ination of accounts of railroads under
section 20 of the Hepburn rate. law
The bill, the largest of all the gen
eral supply bills, carries an appro
priation of s137022, ,007, or $4,000, 600
less than the estimates.
The committee incorporated in the
bill the same limitation on the use OF
the secret service operatives as was
included in the bill which became a
law last winter. 1t was this limita
tion that drew forth the severe criti
cism of the president in his annual
message last December. The commit
tee defended its recommendation a
year ago of $4,000 for the enforce
ment of section 20 of the Hepburn
rate law, but reappropriating 1926, ,OOO
of the $350,000 appropriated in the
current sundry civil bill for this pur.
pose.
The sum of $350,00O was voted a
year ago only after the president had
written to the speaker and had called
several members to the White House
to consult on the subject. Testimony
taken by the committee showed that
during the seven months. of the pres
ent year only 1000 of the fund had
been expended and in this amount
was included the salary of twelve ex.
aminers for whom maintenance was
suggested by the committee a year
ago from another fund.
