Gas Company cases, recently decided
by the Supreme Court, was filed With
the court to-day by the Attorney Gen
eral of New York.
The court, in deciding the cases. held
That the statutory gas rate was con

few days ago asked the court to Issue
its mandate Immediately instead Of
postponing it until thirty DAYS after

important that the company should
have made available as soon as possible

PARIS. March 25.-The semi-oficial
"T Temps" warns Tonight that the last

France at the Washington conference
for larger naval ratio than that al

the treaties concluded at Washington
are not unalterabe We are given to
understand unfortunately, that the en-
gaCements inscribed in these treaties
Tor safeguarding the rights of sigma
tory nations can disappear under the
effect OF reservations. The American
reservation eliminates all the obliga-
tory character of Article II of the
treaty. In the future, if the rights Of
the signatorY powers are menaced in
the Pacific, the duty of the United
States is simply TO talk. It is under
no obligations whatever to take any
