ADRIAN0pLE A RICH PRIZE.
BulgarianS and SerVians Get War
 Material Valued at 8 Million.

London, March 3O-The value of the war material captured at Adrianople is estimated at 35 mil lion dollars. It will be divided be- tween the Bulgarians and the Serbs, according to an understanding reached between them. The men captured aggregate 52,200.
 Railway and telegraph commit nication with Adrianople is being restored rapidly and some idea of the situation within the city is be- ginning to reach the outside world. The condition of the population is not so desperate as has been de- picted.
 All accounts reaching here agree that the Turks suffered a severe de- feat at Tchataldja Some corre- spondents place their loss at 2,600 killed and 7,500 wounded, but these figures probably are exaggerated.

The eastern end of Lake DerkOs, where the Bulgars have pierced the Tchataldja line of Qualifications, is about 20 miles from Constanti- nople. For the last few months the allies have been content to let the Turks remain behind their fOrtifi- cations and not make an attempt to break through.
 With the surrender of Adrianople yesterday, Turkey is making it's last stand in Europe in Constantinople. The victorious Bulgars had hurled the Turks back in the fierce battles of Kirk kilisse and Lule Burgas. Except the small territory around the capital Turkey has been forced lo give up all it's European possess siOns.
 The capture of Constanlinople has been the ambition of the Bul- gars They are Greek Catholics, and St. Sophia. now in the posses sion of the Moslems. was once a Greek Catholic church. What St. Peters is to the Roman Catholics, St. Sophia was to the Greek Catho- lies when Coustantinople was the capital of the Byzantine empire. The Turks have said that they would blow up St. Sophia rather than see it fall into the hands of the victorious Bulgarians

P|ERPONT MORGAN
 IS DEAD IN ITALY
Family of Greatest Financier Wait ing at Bedside for the End Body to Be Brought to America
 Blame PujO Inquiry.

Rome, April l.-After an illness which members of the family had known to be hopeless since last Wednesday, J. P. Morgan, the ruler of Americas finances, died at the Hotel Grand at 12:05 o'clock yes terday afternoon.
 Just before the end the doctors asked Herbert Satterlee, Mr. Nor gan's son-in-law, Mrs Satterlee and Miss Helen Hamilton to leave the room and await the final summons Ill the adjoining chamber.
 Flags at Half Mast.
 At noon Dr. Dixon called Mrs. Sat- terlee from the adjoining room and told her that the end was at hand. At l2:05 o'clock Mr. Morgan died, with his daughter, son-in-law, three doctors and a nurse at his bedside. Apparently he died easily, having been uncohscious, mOtionless and breathing very slowly hours before the end.
 Also soon as the announcement of the death was made, the flags of the Grand Hotel were put to half mast and signs of mourning were visible throughout Rome.
 The Body to America.
 Mr. Morgan's body will be sent to New York by an early boat. Fu- neral services will be held here be- fore the departure of the body.
 The death of the banker was not announced immediately, as Herbert Satterlee, his son-in-law, desired time to get off cablegrams to Lon don and New York, but when the announcement was made the Grand was immediately overwhelmed by anxious crowds.
 The death of the monarch would have created no more excitement. COrrespondents fell over each other 10 flash the news and brokers agents were equally in a hurry to communicate the event to the worlds exchanges and bourses.
 Dr. M. Allen Starr of New York, called into consultation with J. Pierpont Morgan's illness, attribut- ed the financier's breakdown to emotion caused by the investigation carried out by the PujO commit tee at Washington into the opera ton of the money trust.
 Throughout the day the Satter- lees and other members of the Nor gan party remained in the adjoin- ing room awaiting the end. which the physicians plainly told them was not far off.
 Mr. Morgan died after a week of critical illness. He was for the most part, unconscious since last Wednesday.

HIGH COURT ENDS
PATENT TRUSTS"
Supreme Tribunal Decides "Cut
Rates" Are Legal.
JUSTICES STAND 5 TO 4
Day Gives Opinion In Nerve Tonic
case-victory for Government
CompIete-Is Regarded Of
Great Importance.

Washington, May 27.-Patented ar.
ticles sold under price restrictions by
manufacturers may be resold by retail
ers at cut rates. The Supreme court
so held in the case OF a newly patented
nerve tonic. Safety razors, talking ma
chimes and thousands of other patent
ed articles are affected by the deci-
sion.
The courts decision was five to four,
with Justices McKenna, Holmes, Lur-
ton and Van Devanter dissenting. JUS
tice Day announced the majority deci-
sion, which held that while the patent
laws gave the owner exclusive right to
''vend" articles, that was not the same
as right to keep, up the price
That, the court held. was not granted
by the patent law.
Other Manufacturers Join.
Many manufacturers had joined the
manufacturer Of the nerve tonic in his
fight to sustain the contention that his
patent gave him right to sell or use
his patented article under any condi-
lions as to resale price he might see
fit to impose All decisions in the
lower courts, with the exception of
one, have been in favor Of the manu-
facturers.
Justice Day in his decision "distin-
guished" the famous ''mimeograph
case" OF more than year ago from
the present case, but many lawyers
who heard the decision regarded the
term as a judicial phrase for practical
~ reversing that case That point may
be determined in some future action.
officials of the department of JUS
tice regard the decision of tremendous
Importance, putting an end to existing
widespread extensions of patent mo-
nopolies, and sharply drawing line of
demarcation between the Sherman
antitrust law and the patent laws.
UphoIds Federal Prosecutors.
Under the cloak Of the legal monop-
oily granted by the patent laws many
industries, it is contended. control the
price of patented articles to the ulti-
mate consumer. The department of
Justice has contended that once pa
tentee sells his patented article he
loses all control of 1t and Is powerless,
especially in view OF the Sherman
antitrust law, TO establish resale
prices.
Several antitrust suits now In the
courts are based upon this principle
and the department OF justice has been
eagerly awaiting a determination OF
the question before starting more
prosecutions on the same theory.
