 The announcement of the handing down of the courts decision in the Butte Superior and Minerals Separa- ton Notation suit has. or course. been considerable discussion of its effect. The Butte Superior is relieved by it of the payment of big royalties as well as of large sums for the tonnage which 1t has treated already Aside from this company. however. the situ- auon actually seems to be much the same as it was before the decision was brought because of the peculiar fact that in our patent law one court is not bound by anothers decision in a ton Co. has beenuatoutaPsuneici

 What a Chinese Supply Would Mean to Standard
 The two great marketing concerns now operating in China and other parts of the Orient are the Standard On Co. and the Asiatic Petroleum Co., Ltd. subsidiary of the Royal Dutch Shell Combine. Although the Standard oil Co. of New York has de- veloped its business in wonderful fashion in this part of the world dur. ing recent years, having already done a business amounting Co more than s1OO GOO .OO0. it has been working at
 disadyantage. The Asiatc Petrole um Co., has supplied its Chinese trade with the production of the Dutch East Indies. which is comparatively near at hand. while the Standard has had to transport most of its oil for distance of anywhere from 10000 to 15.O0O miles. The New York Co. has about 20 steamers plying across the Pacific which carry close Co 3,000,0Oo barrels of oil yearly
 Royal Dutch-Shell Again
 The Asiatic company is considered a giant by the Standard oil peo pie. A Standard oil man recently re
 marked that the Asiauc company was a rival we'll able to compete with thf

New England Companies-COm-
pany VIII Appeal Minority
Report.
The Vermont Public Service Com
mission has issued its order and re-
port in the cases of the telephone
companies, making a special order in
the case of each class of companies
instead of punching them in one
order. in the cases OF the New Eng
land, the Franklin, the ChampIa1n
.-4ld the Vermont companies, the re-
Iuction of rates is $500 in six party
business lines and farmers lines. The
commission recommends that the
companies establish four-party resid-
ence service at the existing six
5al ty rate.
ne toll rates are held to be rea-
sonable and the commission says
-. should not be disturbed.
The valuation fixed by the public
service commission is considerably
over than that Of State Tax Com
missioner Plumley, the difference in
the cases of the principal companies,
except in the case. of the Passumpsic
company, being as follows:
/ New England Telephone company
value assessed by tax commissioner
S2,025, 900; valuation by the public
service commission, S1,569, 105,zo.
Champlain Valley company, value
assessed Dy tax commissioner, $780,
q; valuation by the public service
commission, $92,244.59.
Franklin County company, value
assessed by tax commissioner, S11O,-
valuation by public commission,
S72.1O1.23.
Vermont company, value assessed
by tax commissioner, $270,000 val
alton by public service commission,
S239, 1891.
Passumpsic company, value as
sessed by tax commissioner, $780,
o; valuation by the public service
commission, $435, 391.60.
The commission finds that the New
England's subsidiary companies, with
the possible exception of the Yer
ont company, were organized for
the purpose of suppressing competi-
ton and large sums were used by
these companies in the purchase of
plants at high valuations, and some
Of these plants when acquired were
scrapped The New England com
any has been active in the suppress
sion of competition and in financing
the subsidiary companies for that
purpose.
The order says that Gin view of
he fact that these companies have q
virtual monopoly of the telephone
ausiness within their respective ter
ritories, we have determined that
Icy are entitled to earn six per cent.
on the value of their respective plants
and upon their other assets used in
the business. The order does not
apply to the Passumpsic company be-
cause it is claimed the company was
inadvisedly given the right to in
crease It's raues and finance by pres
vious public service commission, so
that the State has no right to OrdeI
a change.
Commissioner Warner, who was a
member of the previous commission,
nIes a minority report taking ex-
ceptions to many of the holdings OF
the majority.
The New England company an
nounces that an appeal will be taken
20 the supreme court of Vermont.

of the wedding of Miss Katherine
Mccarthy of IS Brooks street to

friends of the young couple. Until
recently the bride was employed as
one Of the stenographers in the head
quarters of the Barre City hospital
campaign in Manufacturer hall.
Prior to that she was engaged as a
cOmpOsitOr in Springfield, Essex
