Tho Bureau County Circuit Court confirmed this decision. The Company took & second appeal to tho Suprome Court. The appeal was arguod ou Mondny. Abty.-Gon. Edsall appeared for the State. The Hon. B.

Socond, because the main question betweon tho railroads and the State—the right of tho latter to fix railway farea—aid not apposr on the face of tho record, and thorefore could uat be taken cognizanco of by the Court.

The ar- gumont that tho speedy decision of the Wis- consin ons by the Supromo Court of the United Statea obviates any noceasity for judiciel action in Illinois iy nogatived by the fact that tho ques- tion binges,dn Wieconsin, on tho powor vosted in the Leglelaturo by a coustitutional provision avto-dstivg the charters of the railroads and in Tiinois on the inberent power of Legislature to medify corporation powors under & constitutional provision adopted many yoars after the grant of tho partloular chiarter, As tho record submitted to the Illivoie Supreme Court bas not been published, it is impossible to say Low woighty the second and puroly techni- eal objoction of tho Attorney-Genoralin, Ibisa fair {nferanco from bhis own speech, 28 well ag. from those of the opposing counsel, that tho questien of tho right of loglslative control may bo inforred, ot any rato, from tho record.
