A curious copyright controversy is ended by the decision of the supreme court of the United States finally, sus- taining the New York Sun’s demurrer in equity proceedings brought against the Sun in the matter of the copy- right on the personal story of Roald Amundsen of the discovery of the south pole. The United Newspapers, limited, of London, held the copyright, but had sold American privileges to the Times. Simultaneous publication in London and New York was the theory of the agreement. But the difference in time between the two cities made it possible for the Sun by paying cable rates to get the full story and use it at the same time that it appeared in the imes. The Times sought to pre- vent the publication by quick action to secure an injunction, but was unable to put complete printed copies of its own matter with the legal affi- davits in the mails before the hour when the alleged wrong was to be consummated. Because this was not done the supreme court holds that the equity proceedings were void. It does not deny the right of the Times to sue for money damages. It is conceded that “news” cannot be copyrighted, but all literary work can. This was literary work. The de- cision seems to indicate, however, that because of time limitations one news- paper can never get a copyright. in- junction against another- to prevent publication of copyrighted matter at substantially the same hour as the plaintiff’s publication. It can only sue afterward to compel the payment of damages. \U. S. Marines on Battleship Michigan Ready for War in Vera Cruzg Harbor| activq part in the defense and patrol MAY ARREST BETTORS.
