In the Supreme Court of the United States to day an order was made providing for the taking of testimony in the case of the state of South Dakota vs. North Caro lina. The taking of testimony is to be completed by October, 1902. There will be no special master, but the testimony will be taken by three or four commis sioners who are to bo agreed upon at a later date. The question of jurisdic tion in agreeing to this order was re moved by ex-Judge James E. Shepherd, representing North Carolina. None of the attorneys fo South Dakota were present, and- that state was represented by a local Attorney. There were two other North Carolina eases before the Supreme Court today.

The Senate conferees are anxious to increase the appropriation to three or four hundred thousand.
