HOPING TO DEFEAT THE IOWA Law.
RAILROAD MEN ARGUING THAT THE LAW is IN
CONSTITUTIONAL.


Chicago June 3o-Thc action Of Judge Brewer, OF
tho United States Circuit Court at ST. Paul, and Judge
Taran Of tho Iowa State Court, granting temporary
iniunctions against the Iowa Railroad Commissioners,
Is the principal topic Of conversation in railroad
circles. The officials Of the Iowa roads are greatly
eated They profess TO believe that when tho motion
IS argued at Leavenworth, on July 5, Judge Brewer
will make the injunction permanent. Tho petition
upon which Judge Brewer granted the Injunction sets
forth that the Iowa law is unconstitutional and in
conflict with the Interstate Commerce law; that 1t
does not sufficiently define the offences for which 1t
undertook to impose enormous penalties OH common
carriers for charging unreasonable rates; that 1t
makes the railroads guilty Of eXtortlon for making
rates. for which penalties are prescribed OF not less
than 81 900 nor more than 600 for the first offence
and not less than $1,000 more than 10000 for
each and every subsequent offence. AS each ship
mcnt IS considered separate offence, the penalties
would so accumulate TO the coniscatlon Of
every railroad I'm Iowa. 1t IS further averred that
the law, I'm addition to tho above penalties, gives
shippers the right to recover three times the amount
Of excess charges every shipment and the at
torncy's fees Another objection IS that tho Com
missioncrs schedule IS made prma facle evidence Of
reasonable rates. which would raise the arbitrary pre-
sumption Of guilt tho part OF the railroads. without
giving them opportunity To prove their innocence
1t IS also said to interfere with tho Interstate Com
merco law because tho State rates affect the Inter
state rates. Tho proposed schedule OF rates, IL Is
charged IS unreasonable and unjust and amounts
practically TO coniiscaon OF the railroad properties
in Iowa. The bill also claims that the rates adopted
by tho railroads on May l, were reasonable and Just
