COURT RULES OUT

JUDGE GRAY GIVES THE OPINION.

fon Handed Down by Federal Circuit
Courtof Appeals, Which Declares Pro-
vision of Noted Act Unconstitutional.
Philadelphia (Special) .—The com-
modity clause of the Hepburn Act
was declared unconstitutional by the
United States Circuit Court of Ap-
peals, the judges of which are
George M. Dallas, Geo. Gray and Jo-
seph Buffington.
The court was divided on the ques-
tion of the constitutionality of the
Hepburn Rate Law commodity
clause. The opinion declaring it un-
constitutional was handed down by
Judge Gray with Judge Dallas assent-
ing. Judge Buffington filled a dis-
senting opinion. The opinion of the
court invalidating the law makes
20,000 words.
Agrees With Roads’ Counsel,
In the main, the majority opinion
upholds the arguments made by the
distinguished counsel which repre-
sented half a dozen of the big mine-
owning railroads at the hearing last
May, and, by inverse reasoning, de-
clares the commodity clause te be
unconstitutional. This was done Ly
summarily dismissing the bills of
camplaint filed by the government
through Attorney General Bonaparte.
Briefly the constitutionality of the
law is attacked on the ground that
it is contrary to State's rights and,
therefore, illegally Interferes with
the power of a sovereign common-
wealth to conuct its own business.
From beginning to end the ma-
jority opinion is a clean defeat for
the government.

MADMAN ATTACKS
FAMLY WITH AY
Ae——————
Three Victims Dying of Wounds in
Hospital. :
Wilmington, Del. (Special). —-
While temporarily insane, presum-
ably because he had been for some
time out of work, Pearson Talley,
a ship carpenter, aged about 64
years, at 4 o'clock A. M., made a
murderous attack upon the other
members of his household, at their
home, 402 West Sixth Street,
His wegpon was a broadax, with
which he cut his wife and his adopt-
ed daughter, Mrs. Edith Johansen,
aged about 30 years, and Andrew
Johansen, aged about 30 years, the
husband of his adopted daughter.
All of the victims are at the Homeo-
pathic Hospital and still alive, but
all are expected to die,
Talley was formerly a farmer, liv-
ing near Wilmington, and had some
means, About nine years ago he
came to the city and bought the
house in which he lived and in which
the tragedy occurred. After coming
to the city he secured work at the
local plant of the American Car and
Foundry Company. He had, how-
ever, been unemploved for sometime,
and this is thought to have affected
his mind.
Talley appeared
spirits when the
household retired, but he awoke
about 4 o'clock A. M., while all
of the others were asleep, and, ob-
taining the axe and without a word,
Attacked the wife and adopted
daughter in their sleep. The com-
motion awoke Johansen. Johansen
grappled with Talley, but Talley ap-
peared to be possessed of the strength
of a maniac, and Johansen could not
get the weapon away from him.
John J. Farman, a neighbor, who
heard the noise, came to his assist-
ance and together they disarmed
Talley, and though Johansen had his
skull fractured in the encounter, he
was conscious and ran to the street
