Cooley presiding, and the first case
called was that of s. A. Riggs of Law
renee against the Chicago, Rock Is
land & Pacific Railway company. The
complainant claimed that the company
occupied q leased line between Kansas
City, Missouri, and Topeka. Kansas,
and that it refused to stop either its
freight or passenger trains at Law
renee or intermediate points, or to ac-
cept any business from that city
over its line in any direction.
In its answer the defendant railroad
company admitted that its train ran
between Topeka, Kansas. and Kansas
City, Missouri, over the Union Pacific
company s tracks, and that it refused
to stop its trains at Lawrence or ac-
cept business from that city. The
Rock Island. however, denied that the
contract with the Union Pacific was q
lease. it was simply q traffic arrange
ment by which the defendant was en-
abled to run its trains between Kansas
City and Topeka and the west over the
Union Pacific tracks. a route
materially shorter than the defendants
route, which was by the way of st. Jo-
seph. The Rock Island introduced the
contract with the Union Pacific, to
show that the agreement prohibited
the stOppage of trains at intermediate
points between Kansas City and To-
l'peka. or the acceptance of business
originating in them. Decision re-
| ferred.
The next case was that of Lehman,
Higgins & Co., wholesale grocers of
Humboldt, Kansas, against the Texas
Pacific and Missouri. Kansas & Texas
railroad companies. The complainant
alleged that these companies charged
them forty-two cents per hundred
weight on car load shipments of sugar

Missouri river points, greater dis
/ lance by III miles was, only thirty
cents. The railroad Representatives
admitted that the rate of forty-twC
cents had been charged six months
ago, but they introduced their tariff
sheets to show that the rate since theT

SmOkelesa Powder q Great Success.
BERLIN, Sept. 21.-The Post pub
fishes a military report on the military
maneuvers at Hanover. which is con-
elusive as to the necessity of smokeless
powder hencetorth for both artillery
and infantry. The corps using the
smokeless powder got within 200 yards
of the enemy without the latter being
able TO determine the distance. The
latter were often taken on the flank
and were unable to GUESS whence the
fire came, ana If it had been a real
battle they would have been annihil-
ated. The reports dilate upon the de-
moraliZiDg and bewildering effects of
the smokeless IRE upon the enemy,
and also refer to the increased certain
tainty of aim. The war Office is pre-
pairing to supply smokeless powder 70

smokeless powder leaves no sign after
