Severab Decisions.
PuJo WITNESS FILES APPEAL

The United states Supreme Court after
handing down three opinions yesterday
took q recess until Tuesday. February "a
None OF the important cases that have
been under advisement were decided.
Probably the most important decision
was one by Justice Holmes, reversing
the judgment Of the United States Cir
cult Court OF Appeals for the Seventh
circuit, In thu matter Of Frank N.
Thomas, who had sued Conrad H. Mstth-
lessen to enforce the latter's liability as
shareholder IN the Wentworth Hotel
Company, an insolvent corporation.
The Wentworth Hotel Company built
a hotel at Oakknoll. near Pasadena, Cal
The company failed. and Frank N.
Thomas. q creditor, who held the notes
Of the hotel company, sued Conrad II.
Matthiessen to enforce his shareholder
liability under the laws of California.
The United States District Court for the
Southern district of New York dismissed
the suit. and the Circuit Court of Appeals
afirmed the Judgment The case came
to the Supreme Court on writ OF GER
tiorari. That court reversed the judy
ment of the lower court and held that
an Arizona charter could not exempt the
shareholders from liability for the debts
Of the corporation in a State where the
incorporation laws made shareholders
liable
Chief Justice White alone dissented
from the opinion OF the Supreme Court.
In an opinion by Justice Pitney, that
was unanimous. the court reversed the
Judgment Of the Supreme Court of North
Carolina. which had affirmed the judg-
ment of the lower court of that State.
awarding damages against the North
Carolina Railroad Company. a subsidiary
of the Southern Railroad Company, for
the death OF one Burgess. an engineer
employed by the railroad. in switch
yards at Selma The decision was re-
versed for an error by the North Caro-
lima Supreme Court. in denying a motion
by attorneys for the railroad to dismiss
the suit because II had been brought
under the State laws instead of under
the Federal employers liability act.
The Chief Justice announced a num-
Der OF orders dismissing cases for want

Rev. 8. L. Gulick, of Japan, Talks
to President on Immsgration.

The Rev. Sidney L. Gulick. of Japan.
now in the United States under the au-
spices of the Federal Council of the
Churches OF Christ in America. visited
the White House yesterday with refer
ence to the immigration of japanese to
the United States. He advocates the limi-
tation of all immigration to 5 per cent
annually of those already naturalized
with their American-born children.
This rate would allow to enter all who
might come from North Europe, would
cut down immigration somewhat from

a slight immigration from Asia. This
would avoid the objection of differential

n of your men has it, and I'm going
to get it back"
The sheikh stroked his beard reflec-
lively. Say nothing of this" he an
swered, 'and show no distress of mind.
Before we reach Damascus it shall be
restored to you"
But why don't you line up your
men at once and demand that they
open their bags?" asked Miss Bing-
ham.
One does not catch spiders In bear
traps" responded the sheikh. and
squirting his mule, he rode back to the
head Of the procession.
The evening halt never seemed to
begin. 1t was almost sunset before the
sheikh shouted the order and the lone
line of camels came to a ~standstill.
Then the sheikh came to Miss Bing-
ham.
Great madam, have you a small
bottle Of sweet-scented essence, such
as the Frankish women use to make
themselves smell sweet?" he asked.
i've got a sachet, if that's what you
mean, replied Miss Bingham. What
do you want it for?"
by its means | shall restore to you
the $1,000" said the sheikh, taking it
and riding away.
Toward nightfall he assembled his
men in line before the tent that Miss
Bingham occupied.
20 dogs and IONS of Eblis," he an
%nounced, zone of you has stolen treas
ures of value from the saddle-bag of
the Frankish princess of mature age.
Wherefore Mohammed, the white
mule, shall put you to shame. Know,
then, that in him rests such a gift Of
discernment that whosoever having
stolen, takes hold of his tail, causes
him to bray. Thus, o renegades and
faithless ones. let each of you in turn
enter the tent in which Mohammed
eats, and place his hand upon his tail;
and when he brays. behold. the guilty
man is there"
Used as she was to Arab ways, Miss
Bingham could hardly restrain her dis
gust at this ~tomfoolery. However, she
said nothing until the ceremony was
over One by one the men of the
caravan had entered the tent and laid
a hand each on Mohammed's tail; but
the mule had not brayed.
What do you mean by all this non
sense?" Miss Bingham demanded OF
the sheikh angrily. Il want that
money, and want you to open the
mems bags, Or ! shall think you are
not anxious for me to get 1t back
20 Frankish woman of age" re-
piled the sheikh ~gravely, 'one does
not catch leyiathan with a smelt-
hook"
The Arabs loitered in the vicinity,
sRrinning at the Sheikh's discontinue.
