HARD TASK FOR COURT
United States Supreme JUS
tees Called Upon to Decipher
Chinese inscription.

On the ability, OF the justices Of the
Supreme Court of the United States to
read the Chinese characters written on
two inner tablets from temple in
Annoy, China, will depend largely the
outcome of case before the court to-
day.
The tablets have been brought from
China as evidence that Vicente Romero
Sy Quia married Yap .Puan Niu in 1847.
and that two children were born to the
union. Chinese interpreters differ as to
the story the tablets tell. The secretary
Of the Chinese legation in Washington
has been called in by attorneys to de-
cipher the characters. Still the dispute
as to the tablets continues. The court
must decide who is correct.
The decision will determine the in
heritance of some 100000 left by Sy
Quia upon his death in 1894 in Manila
It is admitted that Sy Quia married a
woman in the Philippines in 1853, and
reared family. there. These children
claim all the property. ~
The Filipino children, rely in part upon
the fact that Sy, Hien, brother. upon
Sy Quia's death, placed the nine silk
sAits which had been put upon Sy Quia
at the time of the funeral upon the
eld0st OF the Filipino children. Ae-
cording to Chinese custom. these suits
were to be placed upon the eldest heir.
