John F. Barker, Attorney General of the State of Missoun, filed suit in the circuit court of Bates county Tuesday morning against the Kansas City Southern Railway Company to recover the sum of $2,100,000. from that company, alleging that more this amount had been paid by the shippers and passengers over the railroad during the time the injunc- tions granted by the Federal court, enjoining the enforcement of the Maximum Freight and Two cent Pas- senger Laws. The Maximum Freight Rate Law was passed by the Legislature of 1905 and amended in 1907, and in 1907 the Two cent passenger rate law was passed. Injunctions were issned out of. the Federal Court in peal to the Supreme Court of ‘the United States and in June 1913, that court ordered the injunction dissolv- ed without prejudice, and held that the maximum freight rate lawand the Two cent Passenger Law had been in effect since their passage. General Barker alleges that State of Missouri was compelied and did pay the defendent more than $100,000 in excess rates, and the shippers and passengers in the U.S. had paid in excess rate over $2,000,- 000, during the life of said injune- tions. 5 the Will be held at the court house in| the Probate Court room every Sun-! } cordially invited.
