The pending tariff bill, as reported to the senate from the finance committee, restricts such tmportations of animals of blooded and registered stock io free entry only when the direct importer shall certify that he desires the animal or animals for breed- ing purposes upon his own ranch and will agreg not to sell such anfmal or animals. Senator Burkett's amendment seceks to restore the Dingley law insofar as it affects the importation of blooded stock for breeding purposes. The Payne bill as it came to the senate contained this provi- sion “Any animal imported by a citizen of the United States specially for breeding purposes shall be admitted fres, whether intended to be used by the Importer him- self or for sale for euch purpome.” Should the Blirkett amendment not pre- vall the importer of recognized “blooded" stock could not bring them in free unles he should make affidavit that he intends such animals only for his own use upon his stock or breeding fwrm. Should he afterward sell such blooded animal he would be heid to pay the government an ad valorem duty of 2% per cent The free entry of registered stock for breeding purposes is recognized throughout the west, at least, as being most desirable. Under the provislons of the Dingley bill the live stock of the ranges and the farms of the west have been producing a superior grade of horses, cattle, hogs and sheep, due to up-breeding. and the Aldrieh bill as now before the senate would prevent a stock rajses from Importing a blooded stallion, bull, boar or ram unless he should swear such animal is for his own use on his ranch of farm and not for sale.

KANBAS CITY, May 6.—Judge Smith Me- Pherson in the federal court here today continuéd- in force the temporary injunc- tion recently granted by Judge John F. Philips, restraining Slebert Jones, circuit attorney of St. Louls, from prosecuting the suit filed by him In the circuit court of that clty seeking to restrain the rallroads of Missour! from charging a #-cent passen- ger rate. No other state officers are jn- cluded in the’ injunction order, which fs to remain in force “until differently or- dered by this court.” The order contained the reservation, however, that supplemental orders might be Issued against other per- sons should subsequent events demand such action. Judge McPherson said the order did not include Attorney General Major and the members of the state raflroad and ware- house commission because they had stated under oath that they had not inspired or encouraged the St. Louls sult and did not {intend to have anything to do with it in the future. The order applies to all “attorneys, serv- ants and employes of Circult Attorney Jones and therefore applies to John Ken- nis and Rush Lake, former assistants at- torney general of Missouri, without naming them. Mr. Kennish, who argued in defense of ths justice and propriety of the Bt. Louis sult, oBjected to the action of the complainants In citing him and Mr. Lake by name in their petition, and the court sustained Mr. Kennish's contention that an injunction against a client was also ef- fective against his attorneys. Tilt Between Attormeys. “Mr. Hagerman told me I was named in this suit because he was mad at Governor Hadley, That ls the only reason T have ever had for being inoluded,” exclaimed Mr. Kennish. “Well T had a right to be mad at Mr. Hadley, did I not? I had a letter in my pocket at that time, which the governor had written promising to order the dis- missal of the St. Louis sult and hé never @id it. The law does not allow us to enjoin | the governor, o I wanted to get as near him as possible,” interrupted Mr. Hager- man. “Res, T am surprised that you did not name his wife in this suit,” responded Mr. Kennish. Judge McPherson based his decision upon the belief that the purpose of the 8t. Louls suit was to relitigate the questions settled by him In his final decree on the Missourt | rate cgees teeued March 8, 198 “That de- cree is the law until it is reversed.” said | he, “and it must stand untll it is reversed |by an appellant court.

Judge McPherson referred to the quo warranto suit filed In the state supreme court asking that the railroads be ousted from the state and fined for “agreeing and | conspiring to “fix rates" and said: “This court ls entirely willing to allow the su- preme court to dispose of that case.” The | judge said his court had no right to enjoin the state supreme court. “On the witness stand here yesterday the attorney general said that if he found that the raliroads had | violated the law he would drive them all out of the state,” continued the judge. “I |do not believe he meant that. I do not | think he would be willing to see 40,000 or | 50,000 employes of the railfoads thrown out o femployment and the people of the state | dented ratiroad conventences." Judge McPherson prefaced his dectsion | p, with a statement referring indirectly Representative Murphy's resolution in con- gress. He sald he knew a year ago that the trial of Missour! rate cases would be a source of annoyance to him and that they would do him no personal good. “I could see at that time,” he sald, “that What- ever my decision might be.

LONG REPLY T0 HAGERMAN Anserts Been Calls on Colleague, Who Philips 4 Hav Ousted Twenty Years Amo. WASHINGTON, May 6—At the conclu- sion of a lengthy statement in the.house today regarding his resolution of Inquiry into the officlal conduct of Federal Judges McPherson and Philips of the western dis- trict of Missouri, Tenjsentative Murphy of that state annvupged fhat he would present formal charges-of impeachment. Mr Murphy brought the matter up as a question of personal privilege. Mr. Murphy had read some newspaper dispatches to the effect that Frank Hager- man, attorney for eighteen railroads, had telegraphed the attorney general of the United States alleging that the charges in the Murphy resolutfon was “an outra- geous tissue of misrepresentatio.. by one who has no knowledge of the facts.” Mr. Clayton of Alabama, a member of the judiclary committee, objected, saying. the argument was not one of personal | privilege. Speaker Cannon ruled that Mr. Murphy was within his rights and could continue, but he had not proceeded far when Mr. Henry of Texas, another member of the judiclary committee, stopped him with an inquiry as to whether he did ont intend to formally bring in charges of impeachment The Missouri member did not, however, give a direct answer, but continied his re- cital of the charges contained in his reso- lution. He called on Mr. Rucker, his col- league, to substantiate what he was say- ng. Rucker Hits Philips. Mr. Rucker did so, declaring that Judge Philips should have been impeached twenty years ago. Several times Mr. Payne, the leader, objected, saying that Mr. Murphy could not yield for debate. Later he again objected on the ground that Mr. Murphy majority | was traveling outside the issue raised by the Hagerman telegram and the preamble of the resoultion Again, In passing upon the resolution, Bpeaker Cannon ruled in favor of Mr. Murphy, remarking that “the telegram is pretty broad." Continuing, Mr. Murphy denied that the state of Missouri had been accorded every courtesy in the rate cases, as was stated in Mr. Hagerman's telegram. The state, declared, had no knowledge or notice t0 | whatever of the first injunction in those cases. “I am asking the congress of the United States,” he sald, “to give back to us that government which you handed to us when you admitted us as a state in the union by requiring the federal judiclary In the district of Missouri proceed along orderly and decent lines in the exe- cution of the law.

Bailey Would Prohibit Railroads Hauling Goods for Companies in Which They Own Stoc! WABHINGTON, May 6.—Closs upon the decision of the supreme court of the United dtates In the “commodities clause” case Senator Balley today introduced a bill amending the interstate commerce act so as to. apply the provisiona of the com- modities clause to ‘“any corporation or joint stock company which owns or con- trols Airectly or Indirectly,” such -subui- dlary corperations. In presenting the: bill Mr.- Bailey said he had.not read the opinion of the court in htis case, but he had read enough to see that it *sustained the principles upon which the commodity clause was based,"” and the decision showed that the act did not cover all those cases that he knew the | author intended it to cover. | “The court held that the act did not In- | clude cases In which raliroads own stock of a corporation which produces or-manu- factures the articles to be transported,” | said Mr. Balley, “and the amendment 1 | now propose is intended to remedy that refect if defect it was. Those who were responsible for that amendment to the Hepburn act felt that the words ‘“directly or indirectly,” covered every possible con- tingency, but in view of the decision of the court it seems necesasry to change that language.” Mr. Culberson saying he had the com- modities clause decision and that he in- tended asking to have It printed as a document, Mr. Balley withdrew his bill, so that before Introducing it he might read the full opinion Representative Wa er of Pennsylvania today presented a bill in the house, making it fllegal for a rallroad company to tran port a commodity for any corporation in which it holds stock of of which it is a creditor.
