WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.—The Secretary of the Navy has approved an opinion by the judge advocate general that the Phil- ippine lslands are United States territory so far as the statute of limitations applies to naval offenses.

NEW YORK, Dec. 23.—Justics Scott in the Supreme Court to-day dissolved the injunction obtained by Wolff Bros. and others restraining the Northern Pacific | Railway Company from retiring the pre- ferred stock of $75,000,000 on January 27. Justice Scott says the company had the positive right at its option to retire the preferred stock at par, and that its di- rectors were authorized to exercise that option on behalf of the corporation. He added: The plaintiffs have no concern with what may be done with the stock of the company after the preferred shares have been retired. or in consequence of such retirement, nor are they in a position to question the manner in which the company proposes to raise the money to retire their shares, so long as they are as- | sured of the par value thereof. Even if the de- fendant's right to retire the plaintiffs' stock was less clear than I deem it to be, I would still hesitate to permit the temporary injun: tion to stand. The plaintiffs, though holding preferred stock to a_considerable amount, real- | Iy hold but z small percentage of this class of stock, and of course a much smaller per- centage of the total capital stock of the com- pany. The claim is that they are entitled to an o] portunity to subscribe for the convertible ce tificates” representing common stock to be is- sued in place of the preferred stock. Upon what that claim is based is not made very apparent, but assuming that it is well founded no reason is suggested why they can- not be fully and amply compensated in an action for damages for the denial of their as- sumed rights. ?

NO TARIFF WAR jBETWEEN GERMANY AND THIS COUNTRY Consul General Harris at Eibenstock Sends an Interesting Report to £tate Department. WASHINGTON, Deec. 23.—It is not prob- able that Germany ever will begin a tariff war with the United States, says Consul General Harris at Eibenstock in a report to the State Department, dated November 22. The subject which inter- ests the German press most in connection with the new tariff bill, Harris says, is the probable effect it will have on the renewal of commercial treaties in 1903. He says that the sentiment is almost unanimously in favor of first reaching an agreemént with the United States and using this as a basis for concluding treaties with other nations. - Our_ food- stuffs and manufactured goods, Har: says, bave gained such a foothold in Ger- many that it will be a difficult matter to dislodge them.

MO SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS IN DANISH CESSION TREATY Latest Suggestion Made Is to At- tempt to Determine the Matter by a Plebescite. WASHINGTON, Dce. —The negotia- ticns between the governments of the United States and Denmark, looking to tha cession of the Danish West Indies, are dragging. No substantial progress has been made since last week. The latest svggestion from the Danish side is that the people of the islands shall determine br a plebescite whether they shall be cGed to the United States. The outcome of such a test cannot be foretold, for the strong feeling of attachment for the m¢ ther country on the one hand might be offset by the great trade advantages ex- pected to follow the cession of the islands to the United States.

CHICAGO, Dec. 22.—The closing argu- ment in the suit against “Dr.” Alexander Dowle for the appointment of a receiver- ship for his Zion lace industries was be- gun by Attorney S. W. Packard to-day in Judge Tuley's court. Packard denounced the action of Samuel Stevenson, Dowie's brother-in-law, in having brought the suit and expressed the hope that his bet- ter spirit would move him to a reconcilia- tion with Zion. A strong plea was made to show that Dowle was not infallible. Attorney Packard likened Dowie to J. P. Morgan as a great organizer, but sald he doubtless made mistakes. “He does not clajm to be more than hu- man,” he said, “fof in the Bible St. James says Elijah was a man of like passions with ourselves.” Packard in upholding Dowie’'s claims as Elijah said that he would prefer him at his” bedside if he were at the point of death rather than any skilled physician. Packard is not a member of the Zion Congregation. “Dr.” Dowie and his wife were present in court with by far the largest number of followers that has yet filled the court. During Attorney Packard's recital of Dowie’s identity with “Elijah the Re- storer,” Dowle frequently rolled his eyes upward and gazed at the ceiling as though in_prayer. ‘ollowing Attorney Packard's argument for the defense, Attorney F. L. Reeves, for the plaintiff, likened Dowie to “a devil-fish that twined its arms about its vietim and quieted him until it got a strangle hold.” He touched upon the death of Mrs. Stevenson, wife of the plaintiff and sister of Dowle. and said that when Stevenson in nis grief sought out Dowie as brother ana priest, Dowie gave him a cup of gall and called him a murderer. ‘Arguments in the case closed this after- noon and the case was given into the hands of Judge Tuley. 1TWO0 MASKED ROBBERS COMMIT DARING CRIME Enter Office of a Leavenworth Fur- niture Factory and Secure Nine Hundred Dollars.
