4 | Ta EE THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1930 _ RAILROAD REVENUE INVOLVED IN CASE IN SUPREME COURT Carriers Covering Nearly a Third of Country Are Interest- ed in Action Washington, Oct. 18—(#)—Placed at the head of the list for argument next week. on the supreme court docket is a case affecting revenue of railroads covering nearly a third of the country. Twenty -six southwestern carriers are seeking to have set aside the in- terstate commerce commission order of June, 1929, that joint rates be- tween certain carriers in the south- west and western trunk line territory, be readjusted in favor of the western trunk line territory, which includes Idwa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Tilinois, North Dakota, South Dakota, Mis- souri, Wisconsin, northern Missouri and the upper peninsula of Michigan. The latter would benefit under the order. Only 2t of the 37 Class-One carri- ers in southwestern territory which includes Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, west of the Mississippi river, and southern Missouri, would be affected by the readjustment All these named are parties to the suit brought in the name of the Beau- mont, Sour Lake and Western rail- road. The commission is attacked spe- cifically on the ground that it ex- ceeded statutory authority in basing | the order upon group conditions among the railrods involved The southwestern roads contend the law requires that conditions and needs of each carrier be considered in fixing joint rates and that, in this case, the commission employed an average. The effect of the order, they con- tend, would be to take approximately $3,000,000 in annual revenue from roads in the southwest, some of which they say operate ata deficit, and give it to the western group, some of which are held to be unus- ually prosperous. The commission is joined by the western trunk line roads, in defend- ing the fairness of the rates and the legality of methods used. A three-judge federal court in the western district of Missouri sustained the order, and the case was then ap- pealed to the supreme court. Keen-Eyed Clerk is Downfall of Bandit Omaha, Neb. Oct. 18—(#)—The keen eyes of Emerson Erway, assist- ant cashier of a small-town bank to- day were credited with helping ma- terially to lead the way to tne down- fall of “Jake” Fleagle, Colorado bandit, fatally wounded by officers in a gun fight at Brandon, Mo.,. last Tuesday. Erway's observation of the peculiar weave and texture of the upholstery of an automobile in which he had been kidnaped last July by two men who looted the Mead, Neb. bank, where he was employed, led to the identification of Harry Lee Watson and Samuel Bottom as the robbers and eventually to the trail of Fleagle. — ————9 Railway Coach Is \| Shaped Like ‘Zep’ | EE Berlin, Oct. 18—(P)—A railway coach shaped like a Zeppelin with a 500- horsepower airplane motor and! driven by a propeller was tested out | today on a five mile stretch of rails ATTENTION CALLED TO SHIPSTEAD MOVE German Nationalists Ask What Chicago Bandits Display Chivalry —— ° Chicago, Oct. 18—(P)—Police may be able to accuse the four bandits Who held up a restaurant last night ——<e | Won't be lack of chivalry.

Oct. 18—()—The | Los Angeles, Oct. 18.—()—Fire and Police authorities today continued their investigation of the explosion which virtually wrecked the 12-story garment capitol building and in- jured 43 persons here yesterday but were inclined to believe the blast was an accident rather than sabotage. Meanwhile the 43 injured passersby and garment workers were reported recovering. While sabotage at first was sus- pected, as the investigation prog- ressed the authorities leaned toward conviction that the explosion was caused by the accidental ignition of illuminating gas, which they said had | been seeping through the building for weeks. ‘The estimate of damage, increasing with completion of surveys, mounted to $1,500,000. Originally it’ was $1,000,000.
