Dull Business.

The firm Of Curtis & Romaine. OF No.
80 Broad street, one Of the oldest houses
on the Consolidated Stock Exchange, hav-
Ing membership also on the New York

Exchange, has sent a letter to It's GUS
toners announcing that 1t has decided 10
go into voluntary liquidation and that
ogden d. Budd, a former president Of
the Consolidated. will liquidate the busl-
ness. The reason assigned for the de-
cision is the extreme dulness which has
prevailed in the brokerage business dur
ing the last few years.
The firm, which has always enjoyed n
high reputation. Is composed OF Sidney
w. Curtis. who has been member Of the
Consolidated since December T. 1885, and
Henry gG. Romaine, a member since Oc-
tober "A, 1890. Both will, II is understood.

WILL RECOVER 100000
Jersey Concern Wins Suit for
Patent infringement.
INV Telegraph 10 The Tribune. !


Trenton. y. j., Nov. lS.-The Court OF
Errors and Appeals, New Jerseys high
est tribunal, to-day handed down deci-
sion in favor of the Vulcan DEFINING
Company in. the suit which IL instituted
five years ago against the American Can
Company to recover the profits which
the can company made between 1903
and 1901 through the wrongful use OF
the yulcans patented process Of recov-
ering tin from scrap tin.
Chief Justice Gummere's decision to-
day confirms the decisions OF the lower
courts and of the special master eN-
Chancellor Magic, in all essentials, al
lowing to the American Can Company,
however, the value of its defining
plants, closed by the Vulcan's injunc-
ton, and money expended for repairs,
insurance and taxation, and to the Nul-
can compound interest at per cent on
the amount of its claims.
Henry Wollman. of counsel for the
Vulcan DEFINING Company, said last
night that the company would probably
recover between s525,OOO and $4,000.
EX-Chancellor Magic. he said. fixed the
Americans profits during the period at
S677,252, which with the interest added
by the court would equal SS27,S52. Sub
tracing from this S214,2S7 allowed the
American by yesterdays decision. the
Vulcan would receive $4,000 in round
numbers.
The decision, yesterday left it for the
opposing counsel to agree on the amounts
involved in the extra awards not allowed
by the lower courts. In case no agree
ment can be reached. the matter is to
be referred again to the special master.
Mr.. Wollman thought 100000 a fair
lDnMnN In the inal adlMslment.

SELF-DECEPTION.

Anatole France has told the story Of
a monk, an Egyptian, living In the sec
ond century, who went up to AleXan-
dria upon mission Of salvation. He
saves the soul Of n certain woman
named Thais and then returns 10 his
hut TO find, not peace, but wretched-
ness, waiting for him there
At night seven little jackals SIT out
side his door listening. They disturb
him. and some hint that they are mes
sengers of evil.
He has a vision and fancies that he
is again called to go forth. He wan
ders along the banks of the Nile until
ne comes upon the broken column Of a
ruined temple. 1t is the column he
has seen in his dream and. therefore
ii Is upon this column that God would
have him rest. Word goes about that
II Is the good father who lies PROSTATE
upon the column, and soon pilgrims
flock hither from all directions
He tells a holy abbot that a sign
from God had caused him to ascend
the column. that sign from God
would make him descend
one night he stealthily leaves. He

THE FRAUD REMAINS.

The Kansas results furnish their an'
svcr 10 the argument that popular
vote can make the fraud Of running
Roosevelt electors in the Republican
column honest. The idea is that the
Republican voters Of a state are the
final authority, and they can put any
one they see it on the Republican
ticket in their state, and That tnelr
vote 20 place electors who are not Re-
nubllcans on the Republican ticket
makes the transaction proper. But IL
now appears that fifteen thousand
Democrats voted IN the primaries
which determined, unless the courts
interfere, that the Republican national
candidates cannot go on the Republi-
can ticket In Kansas. Are Democrats
10 determine who is to go on the Re
publican ticket? In this case, If the
estimated Democratic vote for the
Roosevelt electors Is correct, they do
not owe all their majority TO their
Democratic support, but they might
easily have done so, and may do so III
other states where the same loose pri'
mary system prevails.
And when the Democratic support Is
subtracted from the vote Of the Roose-
velt electors it is plain that what Is
only a minority Of the Republican
partv voted away the right Of that
party TO ballot for its national candi-
dates upon the party ticket. Returns
Of course. are not complete In the Kan
sas papers vet received. but In certain
localities the vote cast for both the
| Taft and Roosevelt candidates for
electors is given as from 90 10 20 per
cent OF the Republican voting strength.
If such a percentage is maintained
throughout the state, then an unusually
large vote has been cast at the pri-
maries. But part Of this vote was
/ cast BY Democrats. II Will probably
be found, therefore. that not much
more than one-third Of the Republicans
voted 10 exclude the Republican ma
/ tional ticket from its place on the
! ballot
The moral quality Of the fraud upon
the voters Of Kansas is not altered by
/ the vote at the primaries upholding 1t.
There Is nothing about a popular vote
which can change dishonesty into hon
esty. Moral standards would lose all
their significance If primary could
stamp as decent an act which Is politi-
cally cowardly and immoral Two
WRONGS do not make one right. The
wrong of letting Democrats decide the
policy OF the Republican party does not
make the treachery of those former
/ Republicans whom they aided 10y their
votes any less contemplate.
