LAVYERS IN CONFERENCE Attorneys Representing Carriers in All Parts of the Country in Session at New York for Severa!l Days This Week—Six Sections of Statute Al- leged by Ccunsel to Be Unconsti- tutional. New York, Oct. 29.—It has been definitely decided that the railroads and express companies of the entire country will unitein an attack through the courts on the Mann-Elkins act, whith was passed by congress last June at the urgent solicitation of President Taft. The act provides for an interstate commerce court to which railroads and shippers alike may ap- peal. The attack on the law was decided upon by the conference of railroad lawyers from all parts of the United States, which has been in session here for several days under the chair- manship of Colonel Henry L. Stone, general counsel for the Louisville and Nashville railroad. The exact course of procedure is in the hands of a committee of seven lawyers to be appointed in the near future by Colonel Stone. The names of the men he will appolnt will not be made public. Colonel Stone said be- fore leaving for his home that most of the lawyers who attended the confer- ence desired that secrecy be observed. It is likely that Colonel Stone will he chairman of the committee as he has taken the lead in the discussion of railroad legislation ever since the original conference of railroad law- yers met at Portsmcuth, N. H., early in August. Objections to the Law. It is supposed that the railroads will attack the law on the ground of constitutionality. There seems to be little objection to the newly estab- lished court of commerce, but a strong opposition is manifested to the exten- sion of the powers of the interstate commerce commission as provided by the new law. The following provisions of the act are said to be the ones whose consti- tutionality is questioned by the rail- road attorneys: (a) That portion of section 15 which confers power upon the com- mission to suspend a rate for a pos- sible period of ten months. (b) That portion of section 15 which reserves to the shipper the right to route freight, when taken in connection with the Carmack amend- ment to section 20. (c) Long and short hauls and ag- gregate of intermediate rate clauses, as contained in section 4. (d) The water route provision con- tained in section 4. (e) The provision of section 15 with respect to the establishment of through routes and joint classification and joint rates by the commission. (f) The provision of section 15 imposing the burden of proof upon the carrier as to the reasonableness or justice of increased rates.

New Orleans, Oct. 29.—Plans for the organization of a steamship line, which, it was said, would compete with transcontinental railroads, were presented to commercial bodies of New Orleans by Bernard N. Baker of New York. Mr. Baker is president of the national conservation commission. He declared that the proposed com- pany would be capitalized at $10,000,- 000 and would operate fifteen 10,000- ton steamers from the North ‘Pacific coast, via San Francisco and Panama and from Colon to New Orleans and New York.

D., Oct. 29.—The good roads convention ended its two days’ session here with the appointment of a committee instructed to draft a coun- try roads bill and present it to the leg: | islature. The system of “working out” the roads was condemned in the resolu- tion drawn up by the gathering and a policy supervision of road building and maintenance by state engineers was recommended. Letters from men interested in or authorities on road building were read, including one from J. J. Hill. Following is the list of new officers: President, A. E. Chamberlain, Brook- ings; first vice president, E. C. Issen- huth, Redfield; secretary treasurer, Edward K. Mather, Mitchell. One vice president for each county was chosen from the county commissioners. Itis in time of sudden mishap or accident that Chamberlain’s Lini- ment can be relied upon to take the place of the family doctor, who can- not always be found at the moment Then it is that Chamberlain’s Lini. ment is never found wanting. In cases of sprains, cuts, wounds and bruises Chamberlain’s Liniment takes out soreness and drives away the pain. Sold by Barker Drug Co. MANY HiwwU> ARe DEPORTED Arrivals at San Francisco Suffering From Hookworm. San Francisco, Oct. 29.—The recent discovery of hookworm among Hin. dus arriving at this port and the re- sultant rigid tests for the disease among newcomers is having a marked effect in stemming the tide of Orien- tal immigration, according to the re- ports of the immigration officials at Angel island. The steamskip Asia, which brought 211 Hindus to San Francisco, took 126 back to the Orient when she sailed, most of the returning having been de- ported, it is said, because they were found to be victims of hookworm. Out of 141 Hindus examined from the last three boats eighty-seven hook: work sufferers have been found. Hoarseness in a child subject to croup is a sure indication of the ap- proach of the disease. If Chamber- lain’s Cough Remedy is given at once or even after the croupy bough has appeared, it will prevent the at- tack. Contains no poison. Sold by Barker Drug Co.

HEARINGS ARE POSTPONED Long and Short Haul Matter to Come Up in March. ‘Washington, Oct. 29.—A statement was issued by Chairman Knapp of the interstate commerce commission an- nouncing a postponement of action on questions involving the “long and short haul” rates, He said that hearings would be open to all interested and would be held probably early in March to con- sider applications of railroads to charge less for long than for short hauls in specific cases.

R e, LOSES POINT IN BIG TAX FIGHT Illinois Central Defeated in Preliminary Bout. IMMENSE SUM INVOLVED State of Illinois Is Suing Company for Approximately Fifteen Million Dol- lars Alleged to Hadve Been Lost to the Commonwealth by Manipulation of Accounts—Case to Be Tried on Its Merits, Springfield, I, Oct. 29.—The Illi- nois Central Railroad company, sued by the state for back taxes tentatively placed at $15,000,000, was defeated in a preliminary of the case by a de- cision of the supreme court. The ef- fect of the decision to send the case back to the circuit court of La Salle county for hearing on its merits. The suit was filed in 1907, following a message of Governor Deneen to the legislature, in which it was asserted the railroad had so manipulated its account as to credit millions of its earnings to lines not chartered in Illi- nois and hence not subject to the 7 per cent tax. An appropriation was made by the legislature to defray the expenses of an accounting. This ac- counting swelled the amount which the goverpor had estimated to be due tl‘:,e state from $5,000,000 to $15,000, 000. The history of the suit really dates back to 1851, when the state granted a special charter to the road which provided—in consideration of a land grant of 2,500,000 acres—that the com- pany should pay'ahnually 6 pericent of its gross receipts, plus a property tax i of three-fourths of 1 per cent, which should, at least, be equal to 7 per cent of the gross earnings on the mileage in Illinofs. 1t is alleged the railroad has failed to give the state a proper accounting |- since 1877. The total amount said to have been hidden is placed at $214, 000,000, 7 per cent of which is nearly $15,000,000. CIVIL WAR IN ABYSSINIA Hundreds Reported Slain Iin Recent Battle.
