CULPEPER. Va, June Il. 1913.
Decisions in many cases OF interest III
Culpeper were handed down by the SUI
preme court last week. One, the case OF
Hill agt. Saunders, involving the title
to two large farms in this county. was
decided in favor of the Saunders heirs.
The case of ST. Stephens Episcopal
Church against the Norris heirs was
decided in favor Of the church.
This case, which has been in litigation
for the last three years, with an array
of counsel on each side, has attracted
a great deal of attention, and has been
stoutly contested in both courts, where
it was known as the Norris will case
on account of the eccentric will OF the
late William Norris, a wealthy resident
of Culpeper. which was made under
peculiar circumstances, and in which he
beuueathed all property of every sort
to the Episcopal Church here, whlch
church he was never known TO enter
with only the stipulation that the re-
mains of his father, mother and a
sister, long dead. should be moved to
the cemetery surrounding the church;
and that strong iron Ien isas sho Tha
heirs contested the will on account or
alleged unsound mind of the testator

the American market. A large proportion
of these goods remained unsold at the
close of that fiscal year thus tending to
reduce the demand during 1911. The fact
that the value of expectations of domes-
tic products during 1911 was greater than
those of 1910. and the same is true of
1912 over 1911 and of this year over last
year. Notwithstanding the extreme in
crease of 1910, appears to be a certain IN
dication that the exports soon will exceed
the imports and the balance of trade thus
righted.
The benefits of free trade to the Fill
pinos are apparent and investments there
will mount higher and higher every year.
Two years ago the United States took
S6SO,OOO,OUO of tropical products. This
year our importations of this character
will be over $500, 900, 900 and within less
than decade it will be a round billion or
more.
The islands have tremendous natural
resources with known ability to produce
great quantities of sugar. tobacco, -copra.
hemp rubber and lumber.
AS for the United States. four years of
free trade has all but given the Amer
leans control of the Philippine market
and the disadvantages which hampered
them for ten long years are things of the
past.
The greatest loser from free trade has
been Great Britain, its loss being 30 per
cent; Germany and Switzerland have suf-
fered in the sale Of muslin articles, but
Japan enjoyed comfortable increase.

The fire committee of the New Lon- don Business Mems association that has been occupied for months in a study of prevention of fires have com pleted the work and made report in the form of an ordinance which has been presented to the court of common council and by that body referred to a joint committee composed of the members of the fire and building com mittees, to examine and report with recomm menda tions. The ordinance as proposed is in part adapted from those that prevail in larger cities and per haps is not all adapted to a city the present size of New London. It has its cemmendable and objectionable features and at least one that is a physical impessibility. Under the or dinance the chief engineer is required to inspect every chimney and prem iSes in the city at least once a year and te make the rough inspection of all buildings within the prescribed fire building limits twice each year.

While the chief may have just lit tie spare time at present, he has not the time to do the duty specified in the ordinance as the time given for the duty is not long enough, if thor sounds well but fl surely is tmprac- ticable. It may be the intention to have the chief a nominal supervisor of the work and have the inspection made by a corps of assistants, as these Inspections could not go on daily and uninterruptedly, as there are days when it would not be safe for even the chief engineer to go out on the ridge pole of house to examine the chim- ney and see whether the chimney was defective or needed cleaning.
