This morning supreme court heard arguments on motion of th attorneys for the state for a new trial of the case of the state against ex-Treasurer John B HIll and his bondsmen. It is scught by the state to have the trial fixed to occur dur ing the present term. While not opposing a new trial, the defense asks that the trial be not set during the present term. Judge Wakeley and ¢ M. Lambertson the state this morning, and all the attorn: the the for the defense, except Judge Broady, per- | tonal counsel for Hill, argued against an tmmediate trial. At the conclusion the court took the matter under advisement until to- morrow morning. By the attorneys for the defense it was urged that the trial had al- ready consumed two weeks of their time and that a second trial during the present term would prevent them from fulfilling en- gagements In other courts and in behalf of other clients. It was also advanced that it was not customary to set a case for trial during the same term in which it is granted Appraiser Gale and Umpi in of the prison property appraisers’ trio were at the office of the sccretary of state today and took the official oath. With Appraiser Broatch Gale will begin business tomorrow morning at the penitentfary. It is understood t the big Corliss engine and other machinery will occupy the attention of the two ap- praisers first. Umpire Gafiin will pose merely as a looker-on in Vienna unless a disagreement arises between Appraisers Broatch and Gale. As such a disagreement is as likely to arise at one time as another it {s thought by the Board of Public Land and Buildings that he should be on the ground during the entire time occupled by the appraisement.

If they are now convinced that I am, after all, their best friend, it will be #ood evidence that the millennium has at last been reached Statements discrediting our inspection may, however, cause incalculable damage to our forefgn trade, which would affect the en tire country, and they may even break down our domestic chiet said today the New havi inspection, which is yet in ite infancy, and in which every consumer is vitally interested The mictoscoplo Inspection is but a small part of the inspection system. It was aipoted for commercial reasons, has only been applied to pork designed for export to certain coun- tries which require it, and there has never been any pretense of applylng it to pork for liome consumption. This inspection opened the markets of continental Europe to our pork; it is consclentiously performed and no official complaints have reached this depart- ment as to its efficiency. The principal com- plaints as to the efforts of this bureau have been directel to the establishment of an in speotion service which would be of substantial benefit to our own people. This Is entirely independent of the trichinae inspection, and t withdraws from consumption the many car- casses affected with such diseases as tuber- culosis, atinomiycosis, blood poisoning, per- itonitis, hog cholera, etc., which are both re- pugnant and angerous to' the consumer. Dur- ing the last year 16,703 carcasses were con- demned and tanked on account of such dis- eas he trichinae inspection is not a part of domestic meat inspection, and no car- have not yet been condemned and tanked, because Secretary Morton has not felt certain of his authoria¥ to o this.

Objection has been made to this by both branches of the service on the ground that the United States 1s expending many millions in making war materials and that foreign governments have peen enabled to procure information concerning these materials withoyt expense. It bas also been pointed out that foreign governments are in the habit of guarding very jealously their cwn experiments of this kind, s0 as to prevent other nations from profiting at thelr expense. Last week for the first time the Navy department adopted a new rule, The ordnance officers were mak- ing some mo:t interesting experiments to determine as to whether a bursting shell cculd be shot through an armor plate repre- senting the sides of one of the bes of the modern ships. As usual, applications were made by the military attaches of the French and German governments for permission to witness the experiments, but Assistant Sec- retary McAdoo was obliged to refuse the ap- plications as courteously as possible, and hereafter these officers will be forced to ac- quire information in regard to experimental tests made by the Navy department. from the official recommendations which the ord- nance officers think fit to make public. ENGLISH ARE IN THE SAME BOAT Many of Thelr Concessions in Madagascar Simblarly Sit 1to Watler's. WASHINGTON, May 21.—Paul Bray, step- son of ex-Consul Waller and his copartner in the concession in Madagascar, was at the State department today and had an interview with Acting Secretary UNL The depart- ment is making a careful examination of the merits of his clalm for reparation and a full transeript of his statement will be for- warded to Ambassador Eustis to serve as the basis for negotiations with the French government. It seems from Bray's account that but one American besides Waller and himself is interested in a concession in Mad- agascar. This man, an ex-army officer, was recently granted a coucession containing mineral, which was approved by the French resident. For this reason the Hovas have always resisted it. There are, however, some British subjects who hold concessions granted directly by the Hovas and standing without the approval of the French resident. Inas- much as the latter bad fought to dispossess Waller and Bray from these conceisions on the claim that French approval was neces- sary to make it legal, the Americans may find in the case of the British concessionaires a strong support, for it is belleved the French would not dare to make any issue with Great Britain on this matter at preseut and they cannot consistently discriminate against Americans if the State department undertakes to champion their cause, which it witl do.

Nor is there the least likelihood of another bond issue. The ireasury has now a balance of over $152,000,000 which is available for all purposes and this amount is more likely to be increased than diminished during the next few months. It is argued that the approaching fruit canning season Is certain to make a largely increased demand for sugar, which, owing to the small supply on hand, must be imported. The revenues from this source are con- dently expected to reach several millions and this, added to the large amounts which very soon will begin to come in from renewed liquor licenses, will largely augment the revenues, even should the customs not meet present expectations. All licenses expire on June 30 in each year and judging from last year's revenues, the receipts this year from this source will exceed $6,000,000, which must be paid within the next forty days. In the meantime the expenditures will be kept down to the lowest point consistent with good business principles. Commissioner Miller of the International Revenue Bureau, will dis- miss at once every unnecessary person em- ployed in connection with the income tax at the earliest possible moment and as soon as the returns can be classified and tabulated 50 that the amount to be refunded to cach person who has pald his tax is made ap- , the bureau will be closcd.
