SETTLE POTASH^ DISPUTE
Airreement Made by Which All
Suits Are Withdrawn.
Terms Of a final settlement of the potaah
controversy between German and American
Interests were ann</unced last night by the
International Agricultural Corboratlon,
which owns the aollstedt mine, over which
the dispute has largely been waged. After
declaring that the only foundation for
previous reports ot a settlement was that
a basis of compromise had tentatively been
agreed upon, th-j announcement ?-ays:
Adjustments have, now been made and
<-panrm??d by exchange of cables with Ber?
lin. Th?so adjustments provide for the
withdrawal of all suits it, ?jur courts !n
voiving liability for payment of the potash
tax levied by Germany, for the assignment
to the t>yndinatL- of American contracts with
?he independent mine? for new contracts
with the eyndi? ate covering full American
potash requirements on a price bsf-ls prac?
tically the warne as that prevailing before
the low Pi 1?, lontracts were obtained from
the Independent mines, and for the re-entry
of the independent minea Into ihe syndicate.
Aa the owner o? the SolNtedt. mino, the
International Agricultural Corporation has
?xha.iBted every |x>*alblc mean? to protect
Its low pri?e contracts with American con?
sumers. Th? corporation : ml those who
shared with ii the difficulties of Its por?
tion ha?-,j agreed to the present settlement
because, after the Americans who held
o-ntructs with the Soil?tedt and Aschers
leben min? s negotiated the later Hamburg
contracts with the syndicate, it became Im?
possible for the I nltod States government
M obtain any relief for American ? oestim

of State Huntington Wilson expressed the
gratification of the state Department to?
night over the icsult of the negotiations
between American buyers and the German

IL S. CIRCUIT COURT
[NOS ILS EXISTENCE
Created by Bill Signed by George
Washington; Is Abolished
After 122 Years.
JURISDICTION SIMPLIFIED
All Cases Will Now Go Before
District Judges?The Only
Position Wiped Out Is
That of Clerk.
The United State.? Circuit Court, almost
a* old aa tlie republic, ceased to exist with
the last stroke of midnight, and to-day all
original Jurisdiction under the federal laws
rests in this district with the United State?
District Court.
The institution of the Circuit Cou . ex
?f-teej exactly I?2 years, three months and
seven days. It was President Wash?
ington who signed the judiciary bill estab?
lishing th* Circuit Court on September "I,
178?. and the bill abolishing it was signed
by President Taft on March !.. 1911.
Under UM new Judiciary set the Unlc-l
Stater District Court has the original Juris?
diction in all federal cases, except those
belonging to the Commerce Court and the
Court of Claims, at Washington, and the
original Jurisdiction of the United State*
Supreme. Court under the Constitution. The
act docs not affect the Jurisdiction of UM
territorial courts in Alnska. POTtd Ki>o,
Hawaii and the Indian Territory.
The Judiciary act of 17S9 conferred orig?
inal and appellate Jurisdiction upon the
Circuit Court. These COttTtl were In mod
cases tribunals of intermediate appeal be?
tween the district courts und Um I'nltcU
Macs Supremo Court. In 1890 President
Harrison signed a hill creating the present
Court of Appeal?, and thui the Circuit
Court lost appellate power, and was re?
duced, in a sense, to a place of concurr? nt
Jurisdiction with the District Court. At
that time there was a demand to abolish
the Circuit Court entirely, and the matter
was argued In Congress at great length.
Division of Jurisdiction.
The concurrence of jurisdiction led to
many complications, and it was? found neces?
sary to resort to a division of Jurisdiction
between Circuit and District Court in the
nine circuits in the United State-. In th^
Southern District of New York the circuit
Court took Jurisdiction over criminal oases
and equity case? involving more than M?SO0,
while the District Court had . Jurisdiction
over bankruptcy casos, admiralty and ma?
rine cases, forfeiture suite and all equity
cssej involving f-maller amounts.
The new Judiciary* act now In force was
aimed to simplify all this sud to remove all
doubt a.* to proper Jurisdiction. All east
under the federal law? will now go bsforS
the United States District Court. The
change * ill be made without SOttOtabM
fiHinslMns. and neither judg?* nor ihflr
staffs will bt affected.
The only position abolished h that of the
cl?rk of the United States Circuit Court,
which bsa bees held in this circuit for
many yea:rj by John A. Shields, United
States Coinnilasfoaer. The position carried
a salary of ?","(K> a year. Mr. Shield?, one
of the 1-e-t bbSwn flgurei in UN Federal
Building, sill remain there, however, in the
SJMMfSi of his duties as commissioner and
will hold hearings In the same room in
which h? bai presided at ?he end of a long
table for such a long time.
Peter Alexander, also a commissioner and
clerk of the District Court, will take over
the additional burden of supervising th?
filing and handling of papers {or*i?ri' Bled
in the Clreelt Court.
New Work foe Judoes.
Th? vital change caused by the new ;?< |
wjll be that circuit Judges will bo no longer
debarred from sitting in the District Court,
though their principal function will hi to
consider cases on appeal before the Circuit
Court of Appeal?, which remalna unchanged
under the act Because ol an bigjsjlus/in
that section.whtch provided forijvrn'inJijS'i
of Judges in each of the circuits" and flx?J
their ss'arv, fear was expressed In some
quarters that there would b" no Judges for
the Circuit Court of Appeal?. The section
failed to state that the circuit Judges la
each circuit should be judge? of the Circuit
Court of Appeals
To make the law specific on this point
and to remove all occasion for doubt as to
the authority of the circuit Judges to fit In
the Circuit Courts of Appeals an amend?
ment was introduced In the Senate- i>> Mi
Sutherls'id at the- last session of Congres %
This has been parsed by the Senate and
reportad favorably by the Judiciary Com?
mittee c_.f the Hones. Th? iiou.se neglected
to act on it, uni will not he able to take
it up before January ?. when Conjrress re.
convenes, t'.vo days after the. new law goes
into effect This amendment provides' that
"tho circuit Judges In each circuit shall be
Judges of the Circuit Court of Appeals in
I that clicuit, and it shall be the duly of
each circuit Judge In each circuit to ?it aa
one; of the Judges of the Circuit Court of
App- als in that circuit from time to time,
according to law." This provision would
remove all question of the authority of the
c Imitt Judges to sit in the Courts of Ap?
peal?.
Member:; of the Senate Committee on the
Judiciary who have examined the new code
on this point are of the opinion that, al?
though the section in question doss not
specifically authorize the circuit judges to
sit l? Clecv.lt Courts of Appeals, in con
neeUOB S/lth other sections of the ee?i,. (i
|g s.filclcnt'v clear to remove all question
of the.- authority.
