 History of Suit.
 The suit decided yesterday was brought by the Texas company in 1913 following the announcement of rights held by that company on a parcel of land at ZacamiXtla, south of Tampico. Orders for such Announcement had been issued under the provisions of a decree issued by President Carranza on August &, 1918, which called upon oil compan- ies to manifest their holdings. The Texas company failed to make such 2 manifest, and the land was declared forfeited. The company sought to es- tablish it's legal right against such ac- tion by the government.

I. STEPHAN O. PLEASES BERLINITES Good Attendance at Opening of
 Local Chautauqua LYONS-BALDWIN WEDDING
Kensington Couple Married By Rev. Carleton Hagen This Afternoon- Annual Picnic HeId-Berlin Items of Interest

The Theresa Sheehan Concert com- pany is a capable company of artists and was we'll received at the opening of the Chautauqua in Kensington last evening. Miss Sheehan is well known humorist and her various re- citals last evening gained for her many friends. Particularly graphic was ner recital of the Sinking of the Titanic Tn this she was aided by Miss McPhee at the piano. Miss McPhee is also an accomplished sing CT and drew forth much applause with her soprano solos Miss Newell, the third member Of the trio, favored with her violin selections and was encored many times. For an open ing number of the Chautauqua, the Sheehan Concert company is excellent.
 B. R. Showalter, president of the Chautaudua organization delivered the opening address in which he stat ed that he was speaking for the guarantors when he welcomed Chau- tauqua into Berlin. In his talk MT. Showalter told of the sale of tickets. A little over one-ha1f of the re- uuired amount had been sold by the opening of the performance last night. The remaining number of tickets have been divided among the guarantors and they will make an attempt to sell them for if they do not they will have to pay for all left over.
 At the conclusion of his intro ductory speech Mr Showa1ter intro duced Merritt Hopkins, superintend- ent of the Chautauqua, to Berlin people. Mir Hopkins was applauded upon his entrance and soon won the hearts of all those present. In a pleasing and novel manner he opened the program with lantern slides on which were typed the choruses of popular songs. The audience joined in on singing these songs Many old time songs were also sung and put the audience in a good mood for the excellent entertainment which was later provided by the above named concert company
 Mr. Hopkins at the conclusion of his talk introduced Miss Lorine Roth who will act as play supervisor for the children during the engagement of the Chautauqua in town. Miss Roth gave a short address which was of particular interest to the children in the audience She told of how there were 100 treasure ships lost in the Town of Berlin and urged all youngsters to go about the town early this morning and look for them Three of the ships contained lucky numbers and would give the posses sors a free ticket to the junior Chau- tauqua The junior Chautauqua met at o'clock this morning at which time a mayor and other city officers were elected.

MAY DENOUNCE OIL
 LAMBS OF TEXAS co.
Mexican Supreme Court and Dept. Of Commerce Are Agreeable

Mexico City, Aug. 31. (3y Associat- ed Press)-Ofcials of the Mexico de- partment of commerce and industry have been enjoined by the supreme court from denouncing rights to oil lands held by the Texas Co prior to May 1, 1917. This decision handed down last night by unanimous vote of the court, probably sets a precedent for the courts action in dealing with nearly 15O cases calling into question the effect of Article 27 of the Mexican constitution
 Texas Go. in Mexican Courts.
 The Texas company appealed to the court for an amparo, or preliminary certificate issued to the holder of land claim, pending the issuance of pre- emption papers. This action was taken to prevent the government from de- nouncing claims held by the company. If the other oil companies which have brought similar actions are violated it is generally believed that the decisions will constitute the courts definition of Article 27, and it's interpretation of that article as being non-retroactive in it's effects, and that claims to oil lands held before May 1, 1917, cannot be questioned.
 Justice Arias Speaks.
 Justice Adofo Arias prepared the de- cision in which his colleagues concur red. When court opened yesterday and discussions were begun Justice Arias was the first to speak and he emphati- cally championed the Texas company's contentious, asserting that the de- nouncement in question was in direct violation of Article 14 of, the Mexican constitution This article states that mo law shall be given retroactive eff feet to the prejudice of any person whatsoever" He also was emphatic in stating that the standardization of pet | roleum deposits under Article 27 of the | constitution must not be made retroac- 1 tive so that it would apply to lands | legally acquired under the mining law as it stood previous to May l, 1917. | That law declared that oil was part | of the soil wherever found. | Arguments by the justices during the | day were mainly in support of this posi- | ton
 | Far Reaching Decision. | Newspapers here generally believe | the. decision handed down last night is of far reaching importance and virtual | ly establishes a ruling by Mexico $ highest judicial tribunal as to the non retroactivity of Article 27. In some quarters, however, there was doubt to- day that the decision was as definite in that respect as reports would indi- cate. Several local oil men declared they would withhold their opinion until careful reading disclosed the exact phraseology of the courts decision re- garding sub-soil rights on lands held both in fee and by lease.
 There is no doubt, however, that the action of the supreme court will have a salutary effect of indicating at least that the government is making a Seri- ous effort to clear up controversial questions.

SYACUSE, N. Y, Oct. 20.-Because
of it's warfare against organized labor,
the steel; trust is the greatest foe of
industrial peace in this country.
The only way the government can
break the grip of gouging monopo-
lies is by putting 500 or 1000 promi-
nent business men hebind prison bars.
The laborer, with his wages in
creased, can buy no more than pre-
'viously and he has been forced to fight
for money in order to keep abreast
Of the increasing cost Of living.
The above are. some of the views
expressed by Samuel Untermyer, New
York lawyer. in an address before the
New York state association of real
estate boards.
:: The speaker referred to his expeer7
fence as council ! for the Lockwood
committee, created by the state legis-
1ature to investigate the housing prob
lem.
He said the housing situation is
growing worse instead of better, and
that the only remedy to break mono
poly is Jail sentences.
Declaring himself bitterly opposed
to the anti-union shop, he said, "the
greatest enemy of our industrial lite
and a peace based upon a. friendly
understanding between capital and
labor is, in my opinion, the United
States steel corporation. which under
the pretext. of the open shop has for
fyears been concentrating it's vast power
in the carrying out of campaign
of espionage and oppression aimed
at the destruction of all e. organized
labor.
