Trial of Antonio and Philip Musica,
Cheese Importers, Assumes an
international Importance

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The trial of
Antonio and Philip Musica, cheese i'm
porters, charged with having defraud-
ed the customs house by false weights,
took an international aspect today
P. j. Gorman vice consul-general
Of the United States at Montreal, and
Henry p. Mclaughlin, surveyor of
customs at the same port, arrived here
to testify for the government. Their
presence strengthened the belief that
the customs authorities are trying to
trace weighing frauds to other ports
besides New York
George w. Birge, customs weigher
in the government service, testified
today that he had been defTauding the
government by underweighing since
he entered the service in 1901. He
said he had been promised immunity
from prosecution and that he would
not be dismissed from the service
because of his admissions.
Birge declared that he had under
stated the weight of cheese shipped
to A. Musica & Son in 1906 and had
received $194 in payment from Philip
Musica. The money, Birge said was
paid through the medium of an as
sistant weigher named Williams. No
books showing these transactions were
kept, Birge said.
"How did you know that Williams
was not swindling you, or how did he
know you were not swindling him|'
Birge was asked.
ut was a case of honor among
thieves" replied Birge.
The witness said that he divided
with other officials some of the money
he received.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 20.-The
threatening situation In Finland has
spread dismay in st. Petersburg So
ciety because of the prospect that the
officers of the crack regiments Of the
guard will be called upon to pass the
winter in the bleak barracks of the
cantonments of Finland.
This will prevent them from par
ticipating in the gayeties attending the
return of the court to this city.
No orders have been issued for the
dispatch of troops to Finland beyond
those already on the way to the grand
duchy, but word has passed to the
officers of seven elite regiments to
hold themselves ready for winter
campaign.
It is rumored that some of the regi-
ments may leave here next week and
will be distributed by detacl1ments in
the various towns.
A prominent Finnish official said to-
day that open resistance to Russia
demand for an annual military contri-
button by Finland was entirely out of
the question.
He believed there would be simply
passive refusal to appropriate
money for the national defense and
that little headway would be made
in the collection of the amount until
that work was placed in the hands of
the Russian.
The official considered the anneXa-
ton of the eastern portion of Viborg
province settled and said that this
would lead to the general emigration
of French residents to the new
frontier.

A. L. Woods and G. I. Cottle, all of
the navy it was decided that the BEN
efits of an operation We're so improb-
able and the chances of death SO great
that an operation is not considered
justifiable. Midshipman Wilson's con-
dition is very serious and there Is lit
tie hope of recovery in any case"
Wilson was Injured in stopping a
long run of the opposing halfback
after a score had been made and an
other touchdown was being worked
down the field.
Wilson, by a flying tackle through
the interfering men who were helping
Barr, stopped the play within a few
yards of the navy's goal. When the
mass of players was untangled he
was found at the bottom of the pile
unconscious.
Paralysis developed almost immedi-
ately, and since Saturday Wilson has
been unable to move any part of his
body. The fifth vertebrae was frac-
tured.

WASHINGTON, Oct 2O.-Drastic
measures, including the exclusion OF
importations from any country un-
justly discriminating against this
country may be found necessary by
the president should the United States
adopt retaliatory tariff measures
against France.
While so far this government has
received no official information of the
intention of France to operate max
imum tariff against this country upon
the termination on October 81 of the
commercial agreement, officials here
are willing to admit there is some dan
ger of the two countries applying their
maximum rates against each other.
The exclusion power is furnished IN
section 5 of the tariff act of August 80,
1890.
This section empowers the president,
in case American goods are unjustly
Disseminated against by any country,
absolutely to prohibit the importation
into the United States from that coun-
try of any article he may see fit to
name.
