STATUTES MEAN RUIN ¢ St. Paul Judge Van Deventer Grants | Railways the Relief’ They Asked. Court Holds Rates Unreasonable and Non-Compensatory and There- | fore Confiscatory and Unlawfuh St. Paul, Sept. ‘—In the United| venter granted the application of thej Arkansas railroads for a temporary | injunction restraining the state of Ar-; kansas from further enforcing the present railroad rate laws until their validity can be tested by law. “I think that it has been demon- strated here that these rates are un-| reasonable and non-compensatory and | hence confiscatory and unlawful,” saidi the judge in handing down his de-| cision. i In granting the application the | court attached a condition that if it were demonstrated that the injunction ought not to have been issued the| railroads shall refund to all passen | gers and freighters who may use | them during the existence of the re- straining order the charge in excess of the present rates and the roads were required to furnish bonds for this purpose. A. B. Hazen. He is one of the in every interests of this city and Beltrami Were “‘Hard-Boiled” Chickens. The story is told on John C. Parker, the logger, and A. Hagberg, the local meat market man. It may not be true (in fact, we believe it is a “hoax”) but this is the way we get it: Mr. Parker went into Hagberg’s market and the conversation went as follows: “Look here” said John. “You remember those two chickens you sold me last week?” “Yes sir,” suavely responded Art. “Two nice, plump, fat frying chickens—as fat as butter.” “Yes they were. What do you mean by selling such birds?”’ “What do you mean? Why those are the nicest-looking chickens I ever passed over my counter. I never saw such nice, plump birds, with such firm meat.” “Yes, that’s it. They were firm, all right, ' They were as solid as rocks. I couldn’t cutthem up at all.” “You couldn’t understand that. Why, they were spring chickens, T am positive——. But,say. I betI know what made them so hard.” “Hard? They were tough as con- crete.” “No doubt. They were some I bought from that scientific chicken raiser out at Lake Marquette. He told me last spring that he set one of his hens on hard-boiled eggs, just as an experiment.” And John gave a sad smile and departed. “‘Bob” and “‘Eva” With Us. Robert McGinley (who is better known as “Bob,” and in every wrinkle of whose generous counte- nance there lurks a genial smile of contentment)came to the city today, being accompanied by his good wife, “Eva,” who is also one of the best “fellows” on the top of this earth. “Bob” and “Eva”have been giving entertainments throughout this northern country for lo these many years, and every trip proves that they are more popular than ever. | Will Be Married Tonight. | Mrs. Mary Gamble of this city | went off on this afternoon’s train to ! Solway where she will be married this evening at 8 o’clock to M. Pengy a prosperons farmer living south of Solway. Mrs. Gamble is very well known in this city and has alway been very helpful in public entertainments of any kind and her local friends wish her all kinds of joy. UNCERTAIN IN MICHIGAN. Late Returns May Reverse Present | Situation. Detroit, Mich., Sept. - .—The out come of the Republican primary of Tuesday for the Republican nomina- tion for governor is in doubt. The late returns received have added so materially to the vote of Governor Fred M. Warner that it is not certain but that he will overcome entirely the earlier lead of Auditor General J. B. Bradley. As a result of increases of 500 votes in Sanilac county, 409 in Emmet county and several hundred in scattering districts the Journal an- nounced that Governor Warner is 904 votes in the lead. At the same hour the News had reduced its earlier com- pilation of a lead of 970 votes for Brad- ley to less than 500. Already there is much talk of recounts in certain dis- tricts and it seems certain that the official canvass will be necessary to determine the outcome of the primary. _— ANSWER COMPLAINTS. Southwestern Roads Declare Advance in Rates Necessary, Chicago, Sept. .—More than a score of the railroads named as defendants in the recent complaint of the Texas railroad commissicn against the in- crease in freight rates put into effect on Aug. 10 now have filed their an- swers with the interstate commerce commission. Sixty-seven Southwestern roads and other carriers were named in the complaint, which alleged not only that | the rates were unreasonable but that their promulgation by the Southwest- ern tariff committee was a conspiracy In restraint of trade. The roads that thus far have filed answers, according to Chicago attorneys of the companies involved, deny that the advances are unreasonable. The claim is made that increased expenses of operation and increases in the cost of materials and wages made an advance absolutely neces- sary. It is understood that a formal hear- ing of the complaint before the inter- state commerce commission will take place early in October. NOT FIT PLACE FOR HIM County Jail. Poughkeepsie, N. Y., Sept. }—BEd- ward BE. Perkins, attorney for Robert ‘W. Chanler, announced that he will make application before Supreme Court Justice Morschauser for an or- der removing Harry K. Thaw from the Dutchess county jail to some other institution. Mr. Perkins said that the applica- tion will be based on the report of an inspection made by George McLaugh- lin, secretary to the state prison com- mission, -and is supported by an af- fidavit by Sheriff Chanler that the jail is not a suitable place for the con- finement of Thaw as an insane person. Thaw has been in the Dutchess county jail since last May, when he ‘was committed there temporarily by Justice Morschauser pending the de- termination of habeas corpus proceed- release from the Matteawan asylum. ‘When the application was made Jus- tice Morschauser refused to grant the order transferring Thaw from the Dutchess county jail to some other institution. Judicial comity restrain- ing him from interfering with the or- der of the justice who committed Thaw was the reason given by Jus- tice Morschauser.
