MUST KEEP CARS RUNNING,
Judge Gaynor Lays Down the Law to
Brooklyn Companies.

BROOKLYN, Jan. 26.-The following is
a synopsis OF Judge Gaynor's opinion
handed down Thursday morning in the
matter of the application of Joseph
Loader for a mandamus to compel the
Brooklyn Heights Railroad company
to operate their lines. He decides that
a writ shall issue and has set 10 o'clock
to-day as the time TO hear counsel of
both sides as to whether the writ shall
be a peremptory or an alternative one
Judge Gaynor says:
THE railroad company is not In the posi-
ton of a mere private individual or company
carrying on business for private gain, which
may suspend business temporarily or per-
mnnently at pleasure. On the contrary,
II has q dual relation: a public relation
to the people OF the state and a
private one TO its stockholders. II must
not be forgotten here. though IL may seem to be
growing dim if not wholly forgotten elsewhere,
that IN its chief aspect it is a public corpora
ton. having duties to perform TO the public
which transcend any obligation which In it's
private aspect II owes to It's stockholders. II
has received franchises Of great value from the
state, and has conferred upon 1t the states
transcendant power OF eminent domain. In
return 1t took upon itself the performance OF
puDlIC uuIltS dUu luuCltOuSs III IL pcElOEl II
ance Of which II is, in law and in fact. not an
independent individual or entity, but
the accountable agent OF the state.
Though these principles are very old
and inherent in the idea OF the
sovereignty Of the people, 1t would seem that
In the recent rapid growth OF corporate power
and OF the tendency to use public franchises
for the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Of individuals first,
and for the benefit OF the public second, they
have come TO be somewhat overlooked and
eed TO be reStated."
Judge GaynOr goes on to define the
rights of the company to employ labor,
but says if they cannot obtain men at
wages which they set it is their duty
to employ them at any price in order
to operate their roads and discharge
their duty to the public. The decision
says:
In respect to the question OF hours and o.
wages between the employees, its duty was
to have gone on, and now is, TO go on with it,
full complement OF employees having the right
gradually and from day to day to supersede its
employees il it can, by new employees
who will work on its terms or to supersedt
them all at once when it has obtained a sum
cient number OF new employees for that pur'
pose; but in such controversy 1t has
not the right to stop its cars while
it is thus gradually getting Other
men. II the people of the state
were running these roads they would not thu:
incommode and damage themselves and /
must not be forgotten that this corporation Il
entrusted with the running Of these roads q
the servant OF the people Of the state"
Loader, upon whose application thu
mandamus is granted, is a merchant
who alleges that his business suffer
by the failure of the company to oper

An Indian Suicide.

The sensational suicide OF Black
Bonnet, a Sioux, belonging at Lower
Brule agency, is reported. For years
himself and another Indian named,
Mexican Tom have been warm friends.
Mexican Tom was a strong and healthy
Indian, and had never been ill until
recently, when he contracted pneumo-
MIA and died in n very short time.
Black Bonnet had been a sufferer from
consumption. and was steadily failing
in health. Upon hearing of the death
of his friend he evidently concluded
there was no possible show for his own
recovery, SO he procured a rifle, placed
the muzzle under his chin, and sent a
ball through the entire front part Of
his head.

Stronger Divorce Laws.

Senator Aldricb, Of Minor county has
introduced a bill changing the divorce
law and practically r~e-enacting the
law which existed prior to two years
ago. Under the old law the plaintiff
must have resided in the state three
months before bringing action. Two
years age Bishop Hare made a deter
mined fight to drive out what he called
the divorce iniquity, and under his
leadership the legislature increased the
time Of residence to six months. SEN
ator Aldrich's bill provides that no de-
cree of divorce shall be granted until
the plaintiff has had n bona tide resi-
dence in the state for at least six
months and that personal service can
not be secured. The decree shall not
be granted until the residence reaches
at least a wear. Under this statute a
man or woman from outside the state
who wishes to get a divorce must re-
side here six months before beginning
action, and under some peculiarltles OF
the law from three to six months are
required before the papers are signed.
Should Senator Aldrich's bill pass, an
even six months will be required, and
this will make the time somewhat less
than it was even before 1893.

siders rescue from premature death. Her
narrative is as follows:

me about the case Of Mrs. Thurston, of Ok

had been afflicted much the same as l had.
