The decision of Judge Caldwell was the
subject of good deal of unfavorable COM
ment in business circles yesterday. it
was the opinion OF all that he went out OF
his way to administer slap to Wichita
and to the state for having an ambition to
make railroad corporations subject to the
sovereign law of the state. If Judge
Caldwell could hear the estimate placed
upon him yesterday by the ambitious
business men of Wichita. and the things
they said about him, he would have 10
hold court longer than the term of his
natural life, to punish them for contempt.
The following from the Capital will
more fully explain the subject:
Judge Caldwell of the United States
court has ordered the receivers of the
Santa Fe to ignore the action of the Kan
sas railroad commissioners in reducing
the freight rates Oh lumber and coal to the
city of Wichita.
Judge CaidweH's action was based on the
ground of superior jurisdiction That is,
the receivers are acting under federal au-
thority, and federal authority is higher
than state authority. The rates
on lumber and coal were ordered after the
receivership began, but the rate on agricul-
tural implements was ordered and en-
forced before that date. The Santa Fe,
however, announces that the agricultural
implement rate VIII be wlthoraWn April
S0th.
The Santa Fe's refusal to put in these
rates will be taken a inst cause for the
refusal of the Rock Island and the Missouri
Pacific to comply. They hold that it
would be manifestly unfair to compel
them TO do business for less money than
the Santa Fe receives. Their position is
recognized by the railroad commissioners
as correct.
George L.Douglass, who was the attorney
for Wichita when these cases were before
the com missioners, believes that the city
still has remedy. He wants it to bring
action in the state courts against the two
roads not in the hands of receivers. If the
rates are upheld by the state court, and
the Rock Island and the Missouri Pacific
are compelled to put them III, the Santa
Fe will necessarily have to come down or do
d losing business.
The three decisions in this case were
probably the most important that the
present board of railroad commissioners
has given.

Also Kicked High, but she was a Picture and
Nobody Cared.

In order 10 test the real facts in the case
of the bill-boards, over which such muss
has been stirred up, a reporter for the
EAGLE stationed himself near one of these
offensive and public picture galleries on
North Main street yesterday afternoon.
His business was to observe all who passed
along and see how they treated the litho-
graphs.
The Autographs are in public place
very near the sidewalk, and the most
prominent one portrayed a maiden with a
breathless brevity of skirts, throwing one
of her limbs upward until her toe was very
near the timber line.
The first person to come along was
county official. The reporter watched
him eagerly as he swung nearer the gym
nastlc female. But he was disappointed.
The county official never turned an eye to
the picture.
He was followed by two colored men
who also neglected to feast their eyes on
the human form divine.
A little later two stylishly attired ladies
tripped up, and made it interesting for q
moment.
They both stopped and looked at the girl
in tights.
THAT is one of the pictures they are
making a row about. What do you think
Of it,"
81 never thought much about it"
w ell, L think Its vulgar to nave
thing stuck up that way; now just look at
her."
"Of course II got to thinking about
it suppose it would seem bad, but its so
common. Pm used to it,"
Just then the two women caught sight
of local minister humping along to-
wards them and they fled.
The minister was innocent of the BILL
boards apparently, for, as he came up. he
glanced carelessly at the females. A Sec
ond later, his head fairly snapped around
straight and he went on at quickened
pace, with his eyes neither to the right nor
TO the left.
Crowds passed the place for hours, but
nobody, save those mentioned, took any
notice of the gaudy Autographs, and the
reporter went away in despair.

PAY Up GENTLEMEN.
Hands OF Auditorium Committee are Tied TIL
Subscriptions are Paid.

A meeting OF the stock holders OF the
auditorium association is called for Tues
day night at the council chambers in the
city building for the purpose OF selecting
site tor the building providing sufficient
progress is made in the collection OF the
subscriptions. If the subscriptions are
not paid up by that time nothing will be
done. This is movement principally or
business men, at least it is a movement IN
business interests. and the committee con-
slider it bad business on their part to un-
dertake a matter of this kind without first
having the funds upon which to proceed
with the matter of getting the site.
1t is hoped therefore that subscribers
will pay in the money promptly. 1t has
TO be paid and they might as we'll do 1t
early SO that the site may be secured and
the auditorium built in time to accomo-
date conventions that would like TO hold
sessions in this city early in the summer.
On Monday afternoon at O'Clock a
meeting of the directors will be held at
Harry Gordon's office, when the organiza-
ton will be completed. Ii is hoped that
the meeting will be well attended.
