HIGH SCHOOL BOY
0UTO0ES EUCLID
Invents Device to Trisect An
giles after 10 Days Staudy
of Problem.

Philadelphia, June What ia declared
by prominent authorities on higher
mathematics to be the greatest invention
of Its kind is being demonstrated by its
inventor, Sydney A. Gross. a 16-year-old
student of the Central high school of
this city. The device is an angle sector
which mathematlcans who have ex-
amined the instrument say Is capable of
which they say has proved erroneous
that there was no practical method of
t1isecting such angles
Gross's device was made In 10 DAYS
after the boy began the study of the
problem It Is made of cardboard SHAPED
Ike an eight-pointcd star and IL divided
into four large compartments along two
axes. Each compartment is divided into
eight subdivisions and the points Joined
together so THAI complete series of
rectangles are formed and which may be
moved about by means Of flexible
hinges TO divide an argyle the device Ia
placed over the angle and It's hinges
worked go that It forms the required
section. It will make three groups Of
twin trlangles which are equal and every
group of two angles Is one third OF the
entire angle.
DR.. Hulcr of the William Penn high
school, in commenting on the invention,
said;
Since 80 q. G.. he only known
method OF trisecting an angle has been
by higher curves But this makes
practical the triscctior Of an angle"
Other mathematicians expressed similar
Views, and declare that it will he of In
estmable value to architects and me-
chanical craftsmen, and in the me-
chanical arts where it is often necessary
to make such divisions for the construc-
ton of polygon figures.

RETAINS DUTY ON
MEAT AND FLOUR
Senate Sub Committee Deter
mines on Important Change
in Tariff Bill.

Washington, June 2.--Meat and -four
will not go on the free list in the
democratic tariff law If the recon-
mendatlon of the Senate finance sub
committee In charge of the agricul-
tural schedule is accepted.
This important alteration of the
Underwood bill as it passed the House
was determined upon to-day by the
subcommittee composed of Senators
Williams, Shively and Gore. 1t was
decided. in carrying out the deter
mination 10 perfect the Underwood
bill by equali:lng raw materials and
their products, that 1t would be wiser
to levy nominal duties on meats and
flour products than to put livestock
and grain on the free list
IN accordance with this decision the
subcommittee in revising the schedule
took from the free list in the House bill
fresh meats beef. mutton and pork, and
made them dutiabe at 10 per cent. ad
valorem. Wheat -four was restored to
the dutiabie list at the specific rate OF 40
cents barrel with other wheat products
at 10 per cent. ad valorem. and the I'm
de.wood duty on oats was reduced from
10 cents per bushel 20 six cents per bushel
with 2 compensatory duty on oatmeal
said to be approximately tlve per cent.
ad vaIorem. This rate on oatmeal was
not definitely determined, but 1t Is as
sured That the recommendation will be
to take oatmeal from the free list. Cat
tie, sheep and hogs will be left as they
are in tho proposed bill, dutiahle ut 10
per cent ad valorem. and the Underwood
duty of 10 cents a bushel on wheat will
stand.
These recommendations will be made
to the finance committee late this week
or early next week, and the senators who
propose the change believe it will have
the approval of the majority members
and also of the democratic caucus.

Washington, June 3-Whether the de-
crees of the United States courts dis
membering the STANDARD on and tobacco
trusts" into separate units are being
carried out in letter and spirit was con-
sidered to-day by the Wilson admins
tration with a view to the possible IN
stitution of the most important anti

President and Attorney General NJ.
Reynolds,
In the Standard Oil case, the attorney,
general received from Charles b. Nor.
rison and Oliver L. Pagan, his special
assistants, a report on the results OF
their investigation of conditions IN the
oil industry and began consideration OF
the question whether the facts disclosed
will justify the department of justice in
beginning contempt Of court or criminal
proceedings against oil interests ON
charges of violations of the dissolution
decree. Tonight this question was UNI
settled
In the tobacco case. practically the en-.
tire meeting of the cabinet was devoted
to considering whether surface condl-
lions IN the tobacco trade warrant thu

tion similar to that just finished in the
Standard Oil case, to determine whether
the decree of dissolution Is being violat.
ed and whether all sembance of a
tobacco trust" has disappeared Ths
attorney general, after the meeting, was
non commlttal as to whether the inquiry
will be undertaken.
Mr.. McReynolds, as special assistant to
the attorney general originally prosecuted
the tobacco trust and it is known that
he disagreed with former Attorney-Gon-
eral Wickersham as to the adequacy Of
the adopted plan of disintegration. II
has been understood that his obicctonI
centered essentially around the pro rata
distribution among the shareholders OF
the trust" of the stock of the Il corpora

pany was disintegrated. He was quoted
at the time as saying the plan deserved

heap"
In a preliminary report made to former
Attorney General Wickersham, just be-
fore he retired from office, Messrs Morri
son and Pagan declared that their then
partial investigation raised serioui
doubt az TO whether the standard OF
trust had been actually dissolved.

an opening in our department of readyto-

as this. Those spring floods South and
