i IN SUPREME COURT
' INVOLVE EVERYONE
Question of Court Decisions
on Railroad Rates, Meat
Inspection and "Book
Trust" Among Those at
Issue.
13
WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. Arguments,
the decisions on which will affect vir
tually every mnn, woman nntl child In
the United States, were begun today be
(are the United States Supremo Court.
As an Illustration, every owner of rail
road stocks or bonds In the country, and
every person Interested In State taxation
questions, and every person who pays to
ride on trains, Is Interested In the case
ef tho Norfolk and Western Railroad
Company ngalnst the State of West Vir
ginia This Is one of the cases scT for
early argument by tho Supremo Court,
,nd Is the first on tho list.
While harking back to the question of
confiscatory rates, the argument In this
ease rests on tho point whethor any one
rate can be confiscatory, unless the en
tire rode system of which It Is a part
Is confiscatory. Assuming the contention
of tho railroad attorneys that tho two
cent fare law results In tho company not
receiving enough revenue from Its Intra
state passenger trafno to yield It a profit
to be correct, and this Is virtually con
ceded by tho attorneys for tho State, the
question Is put up to tho court Is that
sufficient to declare the rate confiscatory?
Tho State of West Virginia holds that
It Is not: that alt tho business of the
Norfolk and Western within the Stato Is
profitable, and that It Is beside the point
to pick out the passenger trafllc, and
say that this particular line of business
does not pay. Incidentally, the figures
of tho Stato's experts, as produced In
tho lower courts, show that tho revenue
from the 2 cent tickets gives tho com
pany Just about operating expenses, so
that a clear caso Is established, as this
would yield no roturn on tho Investment
Tho company's exports figure that It does
not even pay them to haul tho business
at the 2 cent rate, but that It Is not tho
question which Is put up to tho Supremo
Court.
This question Is made of more Interest
because of the recent 5 per cent, rate de
cision of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission, which suggested to the rail
roads, In denying the full measure of In
creases In freight rates asked for, to
raise tholr passenger rates ns many of
them were unprofitable.
Another case set for early argument of
great Interest to railroad men Is that of
tho Pullman Company against W. V.
Knott, ns Comptroller of the State of
Florida. This caso concerns the validity
of the State act taxing tho groBS earn
ings of all sleeping and dining cars with
in the limits of tho State V,i per cent.,
in addition to ad valorem and license
taxes.
Argument on the so-called "book trust"
case will also bo begun at once. This Is
the case of I. and U. Straus (R. H.
Macv & Co.) against the American Pub-
Ushers' Association. Because Macy &
Co. refused to agree to maintain a fixed
retail price for copyrighted books sold to
It by members of the association, It 1b
charged that all Its members refused to
sell their books and publications to tho
department store, causing It a loss of
$125,000. The suit Is under the anti-trust
law, and Is to recover treble damages.
A most Interesting case Is that of Carl
Oliver, against the State of Texas. Oliver
Is a Negro Indicted for the murder of
Robert D. Stanley In June. 1910. Negroe3
were excluded from the Grand Jury.
The effectiveness of the meat Inspection
act Is thought by Government officials
to hang upon the decision of the case of
the United States against Charles Lewis,
Lewis Howard, Fred Williams and JameB
McBee. These men were charged with
violation of tho meat Inspection law In
destroying Government seals on freight
cars containing meat and meat products.
Who should bear the expense of main
taining an Immigrant while he Is under
suspicion of having EOmo disease, and as
a result Is detained In quarantine after
being allowed to leave the ship on which
he came to this country. Is the point to
he argued In the caso of the United States
against the Hollo' id-American Line. The
Government Is suing for J2167.S0 for main
tenance of a number of Immigrants oo de
tained. .
Whether the code of Alabama Is In
Violation of the Thirteenth Amendment Is
the question In tho case of the United
States against L A. Reynolds and G. W.
Broughton It Is charged that the de
fendant held K. W, Fields In a state of
peonage to work out a debt.
Three cases In regard to the Oklahoma
guaranty of 'bank deposits law havo been
eet for early argument before the court.
A case somewhat similar to that of the
Norfolk and Western against West Vir
ginia Is that of the Northern Pacific Rail
way Company agalnBt North Dakota,
which has also been set for early argu
ment. This case involves the constitu
tionality of a law of that State fixing coal
rates so low as to yield the carrier noth
ing for the use of his property, though
providing enough revenue for the actual
movement of the coal, The lower court
held that If all the Intra-State business
showed a profit, no single rate could be
held to be confiscatory.
The famous Terminal Railroad Asso
ciation of St Louis will figure In the case
of the United States against that Asso
ciation, when the Government will argue
that the order of the Supreme Court In a
previous caee has not been carried out In
many particulars by the lower court, and
therefore further action Is desired.
ARRESTED AT WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON. Oct. 1J William

House today by Secret Service men and
turned over to the police because he In

at Wilmington Costumes
Are Unique.
WILMINGTON, Del., Oct. 13.-TwclVc
thousand school children paraded this nf
temoon In connection with the Old Homo
Week celebrntlon before tho largest crowd
ever seen In Wilmington. Starting at n
signal of two taps from tho City Hall
bell, the parnde moved down Market
street, where It was reviewed by Governor
Charles R. Miller, Mayor Howell, mem
bers of the Governor's staff and other
prominent officials.
Wilmington has seen many celebrations,
but thf youthful parnders, tho high school
athletes In full regalia, tho younger
school children In nutomoblles and thf
flonts were greeted with wild enthusiasm
iProud parents anxloun to get better
views of their llttlo ones and visitors
aroused to a high pitch of enthusiasm by
tho music Jammed the streets nnd mado
tho crowd at times hard to handle. In
order to avoid accidents to tho school
children, the chief marshal requested
that tho streets bo kept froe from ob
structions and his Instructions proved a
source of comfort to both marchers and
onlookers. Long before starting time nil
points of vantngc had beon taken nnd
when the strains of band music an
nounced the approach of the first divi
sion, tho choirs woro deafening.
The floatB were one of the many fea
tures of the parade. The Wilmington
High School entered three representing
the domestic science, bench work and
sewing schools. Tho pupils were shown
at work, and many of the pretty girls
were greeted with showers of flowers.
Tho Negro High School students also
entered three Interesting floats.
Many of Wilmington's prettiest girls
were In the parade and they mado an
Impressive appearance as they marched
In militant step, carrying flags and pen
nants and clad In white with fancy caps
ami oinrers. ab they passed the grnnd
stand they received salutations and greet
ings galore.
Eight manly hoys In baseball and foot
ball uniforms were cheered vigorously,
and the younger boys, who no doubt as
pire to athletic fame, looked rcsolte and
happy. Tho "youngsters" who were not
big enough to march occupied scnts of
honor In nutomoblles, where they waved
little flags.
Among the many visitors who arrived
at tho last minute was 8. Herlngton, of
Sidney, Australia, who left Wilmington
many years ago. Another interesting
visitor was C. Drew Jobson, chief eleo
trlclan of the United States battleship
Delaware.
HOUSE COMMITTEE HOLDS UP

Henry's Resolution Causes a Stormy
Two Hours' Session.
WASHINGTON. Oct, 18. After two
hours' stormy session behind closed doors
today, the House Itules Committee failed
to come to a decision on Representative
Henry's resolution making tho cotton
emergency currency bill privileged along
with tho warehousing bill and threo bills
to amend the Federal reservo act. An
other meeting will be held on Thursday
morning.
Mr. Henry endeavored by tying the
five bills In one resolution to be able to
compromise with tho other members who
aro In favor of passing the Federal re
serve act amendments, which are re
quested by the Federal Reserve Board.
These amendments are slight, the most
Important one being to allow Federal
reserve banks to deposit their reserves
in other banks and not keep them In
their vaults, the eftect being an extension
of credit in the South alone of $300,000,001).
One of the Federal reserve amendments
authorizes the board In Its discretion to
lncrense the amount of acceptances based
on the Importation and exportation of
goods which a member bank may dis
count. HAGERSTOWN FAIR OPENS
