C, for con- struction of a power project known as Buzzsard Roost. After the case had been tried in the District Court and remanded by the Court of Appeals, attempts were made to introduce’ additional evidence as to a new. contwact between P. W. A. and the county authorities and as to_the intent of P. W. A. in making the loan and grant. The admissibility of this evidence resulted in considerable confusion dur- ing the rehearing, which was ampli- fled by ambiguities in the appellate court order remanding the case, In the Associated Press case, & unanimous decision delivered by Jus- tice Roberts held that the bill of complaint should have been dismissed by the District Court on the ground the amount in controversy did not| give the Federal Court jurisdiction. “The decree of the Circuit Court of Appeals is reversed,” the court or- dered, “and the cause is remanded to the District Court with directions to dismiss the bill of complaint for want of jurisdiction.” The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals | broadcasting of the news until 18 | The Associated Press, which filed |'the original action, contended the sta- from the Bellingham Herald, Seattle | Post-Intelligencer and Seattle Times, all members of the Co-operative Press Association.

Before the court met today, the State of Texas started a move to collect an inheritance tax from the huge estate left by Col. Edward H. R. Green, son of the famous Hetty Green. Attorney General William McCraw of Texas estimated the tax would be approximately $10,000,000 shouid the suit be successful. Texas asked the Supreme Court for permission to file & bill of complaint against the States of New York, Massa- chusetts and Florida and against Hetty Green Wilks, sister of Green, and Ma- bel Harlow Green, the widow. . Col. Green died in: New York last June, leaving an estate estimated to be in excess of $30,000,000, In its compiaint Texas set forth that Col. Green in 1892 abandoned domiciles in other States and took up residence in Dallds, Tex.

Green's property within the State's Jurisdiction.
