JUDGE MALLORY, of Milwaukee, has
decided on test case brought before
him that the "anti treat law is invalid
The law refers to statute in the revised
statutes of 1878 which it amends, mainly
by the addition of the anti treating pro-
vision. 1t appears that this law was re-
pealed by subsequent legislature, l. g.,
amended in such manner as to be re,
peal except where its provisions are re-
enacted in the amending act. Thejudge
holds that the ''anti-treat' law is void
because it purports to repeal law which
has no existence on the statutes. The
case was pre-arranged one by the edi-
torial force of the Evening Wisconsin.

THE railroad bridge at Sheboygan has
suffered somewhat from the piling up of
ice and trains have been unable to cross
it since Monday. On Tuesday the Mil
waukee trains were divided into three di-
visions, one running to the scene of the
wreck on Monday, where passengers and
express matter were transferred to anoth-
er train running to Sheboygan, from
whence they were transferred TO a train
running from that city to Manitowoc.

need not even know the mistress of
