THE FRENCH BILLIARD EXPERT


Edward FOurniIs Kill Pleases the East
ern Critics Immensely.
An interesting. personality in the
billiard world just now is NJ. Edward
Fournil, champion of France. He ar
rived in this country a month ago with
the scalps of Vignaux, Plot, Cave and
Gay dangling from his belt and on the
warpath for Slosson, Ives or Schaefer.
So far no match has been arranged,
but he will be accommodated very
soon. Ives has two matches on with
Schnefer. and Slosson also has engage
ments. The Americans are us eager
for the fray us the Partisan and some
great billiards is bound to ensue.
Fournil is 0 30 years old, of ath-'
lctic build, and prepossessing in ap-
pearance and manner. He seems rather
too phlegmatic for a typical French
man, but in u close game exhibits IL
tenacity and qnickness in arguments
over disputed points which shows all
his nations viyacity. In playing Four
nil is a model of style, his strength
giving him power to make dazzling
round ,h" table plays without appar-
ent exertion, and in gentle, nurs-
ing play he fondles the balls
vi h a cue touch as soft us swans.
Gown. A good test of his quality has
been shown i'll the pending series OF
5n0-point balls line games Mt Days bill
lard academy with Maurice Daily. The
Frenchman has turned off nightly runs
of 10Y, loo, l05. lea and 135, showing n
high average play and winning the
games, although DAILY has been in good
form. In II game with %lieiser, Fonrnil
won by 500 points to las, making runs
of $50 md 10s. The prettiest sort of
play has been shown by fournil, many
of his gathering shots being entirely
new in their principle and execution.

An IMPORTANT DECISION
South Dakota Cannot Tax Foreign
Merchants.
Decision in the Case of Gr,ggs, Cooper .
Co. VS. Minnehaha County Suit
Against City of Huron-Other
Matters of Interest.

Sioux FALLs,S S. D., Oct. 22.-This morn.
ing in the United States court Judge
Edgerton handed down an importaht
decision in The cnse of Griggs, Cooper
& Co. VS. Minnehaha county. This case
has been mentioned in these dispatches
before, telling how the plaintiffs, d
Wholesale grocery firm of st. Paul,
Mimi. shipped to this city, Aberdeen
and Wntertown car lots OF groceries and
sold them from the car, both to retailers
and consumers. The county assessed
the goods for taxes and an injunction
was secured stopping the sale OF the
goods. The goods were levied upon and
have been sold for storage. The plain.
tiffs sue for the value of the goods
claiming that the county had no right
to levy upon them.
Judge Edgerton in his decision re-
cites the claims of 10th sides, giving
the law under which the levy was
made, and also giving excerpts from
the constitutions of this state and OF
the United States in support of the
plaintiffs position. He says the de-.
PENDANTS claim that the plaintiffs fall
within the class ''itinerant aud tran
sient' is unjust, as their business ia
both Substantial and permanent" He
mentions that the state law says the
assessment shall be made May l of each
year and that tho plaintiffs should
be assessed at tn ut time, il
at all, the same as Sioux Falls
merchants are. 1.-The dry goods and
grocery merchant ure assessed in May,

assessed that amount and no more
During the year he turns over several
times $40. 600. If it were not SO ht
could not do business. but he is not
assessed but once The plan proposed
by the defendants amounts to the worst
kind of discrimination and If carried
out would exclude from business ali
dealers who are subject to this rule.
The defendants urge with great
earnestness that this property will cs
cape taxation il they are restrained in
this proceeding. That does not follow

say they cannot escape, but even il

Of the plaintiffs embrace these goods in
the yearly business and return the
same to the assessor annually in May
as a part of their average stock IL
trade. The relief asked for in the
plaintiffs bill must therefore b,
granted"
The court holds in short hat the Law
taxing itinerant traders does not apply
in the case at bar and further that il,
would be unconstitutional if it did.

THE NEW RAILROAD POOL.
Western Executive Oficials Confident of
It's Succnss.


Western Executive officials Confident of
Its Success.
CHICAGO, Oct. 22.-Western executive
officials are supremely confident that
freight rates in their territory will be
maintained under the operations of the
new pool. Certain it is hat western
lines have never been more hurmoni-
Gus. The one thing necessary in any
railroad agreement is belief in the good
faith of the members. This belief is
shared universally, and the main rea-
son is that it will be for the best inter-
ests of each line to absolutely maintain
it's agreement. All the details have
been SO worked ont as to make it in
every case Il losing game for any line
to cut rates.
The business will be decided among
oil lines upon percentage carefully fig
urged out and satisfactory to all. Each
line is certain of its share at the tariff
rates. If it takes more than its share
it must promptly turn over an amount
equal to the excess to its less fortunate
competitors The traffic SO turned
over must, of course. be at tariff rates,
thus destroying all incentive to get
business at cut rates.
~ iui we pOol seems To Ul1ter put
little from any other tonnage pool. But
back of it are instructions to form it on
the part of each board of directors,
and the agreement of the latter to
absolutely maintain good faith with
each other. Herein is the
difference between this and Other,
pools. In oil other cases the executive
officers are responsible to their direct
ors. in this case the officers are work.
ing under instructions, and tho direct
prs themselves ere responsible.
Pools are almost invariably broken
by outside competition and ut
tenpts of pool lines to meet it. When
such competition is met in the case of
the new pool, its members will meet it
as n whole. One line or more will be
delegated to meet the competition, and
the loss or gain will be shared by all.
1t will be fought exactly as if there
were but one management, us in real
ity will be the case.
