Report That Interborough Is
Buyer of 10000 Shares Denied.
OWNER, H. B. HYDE ESTATE
Brokers Won't Give Name OF
Buyer of Block-Announce-.
ment in Circular.

| The sale Of a block of 900 shares OF the
| Coney Island & Brooklyn Railroad. an
nounced yesterday, gave rise to a large
amount Of speculation in the financial dis
| trict as TO the identity Of the purchaser OF
this closely held stock A report was heard
| in Wall Street that IT had been bought by
the Interborough Rapid Transit interests,
but a director of that corporation said
there was absolutely no truth In this
rumor.
The stock was bought through the
brokerage house of George II. Prentiss &
Co., of No. 81 Wall street, from the estate
of Henry B. Hyde. News Of the transac-
ton reached the stockholders Of the Coney
Island company in a letter from the
| brokerage house saying the price paid was
| s75 a share The letter added:
On making this sale to us the HYDE in
| terests stipulated that we should give the
same opportunity 10 all other stockholders
| 10 sell at the same price, and we therefore
make the same offer to purchase your
! stock at Is a share, TO be delivered on
March p, 1912. II you care to avail your
self of this offer written notice should be

acting for a client whose name could not
| be divulged. He declined to tell the object
of the client in acquiring the stock. but said
the firm was ready TO buy any number OF
shares offered
The Hyde shares were a part Of the es-
tate Of the late Henry B. Hyde, founder OF
| the Equitable Life Assurance Society. who
left most of his property to his widow and
| his son, James Hazen Hyde. who now re
sides in Paris. When the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company was formed the Coney
Island & Brooklyn Railroad remained out of
| the merger.
The impression was general In Brooklyn
last night that the Hyde stock had been
turned over TO the Interborough interests
| None Of the directors would commit them
selves on the subject. but they gave the
| impression that the sale was well under
stood and that IL was in line with some plan
for the future Of the road. President S. w
Huff said that he did not know who the
purchaser Of the stock was and that he
would not tell If he did. The other directors
said that they knew, but would not tell.
George II. Prentiss. whose firm negotiated
the sale. said that he had acted as broker
merely. He refused to deny that the Inter
borough had bought the stock. He is one
of the directors Of the company. William
n. Dyckman. another director. refused to
discuss the sale on the ground that he Is
counsel for George II. Prentiss & Co. and
for the railroad. People who have been In
close touch with the road and its manage
ment said last night that they were conf
dent that the Interborough had made the
purchase. The Interborough. they declared.
had been negotiating for the Hyde and
other blocks Of stock for some time.

MAY ASK HIGHER DUTY
Customs Court Upholds Conten
tion of Importers.

Washington. March ia decision of Inn
portance in the administration of the tariff
law, declaring that an importer can ap-
peal from an assessment OF duty by a COL
lector Of customs on the ground that the
assessment was too low, was rendered by
the United States Court Of Customs APP
peals to-day The decision, according to
customs experts, means that a merchant
who disagrees with the Treasury Depart
ments Interpretation Of the tariff act can
import test shipment and appeal to the
Customs Court to get more protection
through higher duties.
The case decided was that OF l.. II. A.
Schwartz and T. Aubrey Byrne, importers,
who appealed from an assessment and We're
sustained by the Board of General Appras-
ers at New York. The government ap-
pealed to the Customs Court.
The court was divided. Judges Martin.
Montgomery, Smith and De Vrles holding
that the importer had a right to appeal
from a duty he regarded as too low. and
Judge Barber dissenting with an opinion
which upheld the contentious Of the gov
ernment.
The decision turned on the Interpretation
OF the word "dssatisfed' in the act Great
ing the Board OF Appraisers.
THE importer is given the right" the
majority opinion says, "to appeal to the
board from the decision OF the collector II
dissatisfied with that decision, and in the
present case the importers undertook to
exercise such a right"
In cases where importers regard the as
sessed rate ss illegally low the court held
that for their own safety they should have
the right 20 appeal to the proper tribunals.
Judge Montgomery delivered supple
mental opinion. giving other reasons why
he thought an importer should have the
protection OF an appeal from duties too
high or too low.
Judge Barber. in dissenting, said the law
contemplated an appeal only when the im-
porter believed the assessment of duty too
high,
