The usual number of bills are being
presented 20 remove the charge Of de-
sertion standing against men when the
war closed. That was over thirty years
ago. Since that time there has been a
tribunal to straighten out the records of
all those against whom injustice had
been done. Moreover, there was ample
time to have applied for the removal of
the odium of desertion before June q.
1890, when the disability pension bill
was passed. Under these circumstances
1t is better that more than nine-tenths
of the applications for the removal of
the charge of desertion thirty years after
the war should be rejected. In cases
where the prayer of the petitioner is
granted it would be well that the bill
contain a provision that he be denied a
pension. A number Of such bills have

The Attorney-general Of Illinois and
other members of the State government
are in st. Louis for the purpose of TAX
ing final steps preparatory to filing suit
against the two bridge companies and
the ferry company which handle the
transportation between st. Louis and
East st. Louis, for entering into and
maintaining a pool. The action is taken
under resolution passed by the last
Illinois Legislature calling for a thorough
investigation of the alleged combine
and the report of a committee recon-
mending that suit be brought. The
United States Encouragement is kept
advised of the proceeding, and has noti-
fed the district attorney that If a case
of pooling Is made out against the COM
panies the Secretary of War would prob
ably take possession of the bridge COM
pany, and it's rights and franchises
would be forfeited to the government.
The case is Of general interest as show
ing the growing disposition of State and
national authorities to enforce anti
trust laws against transportation COM
panies and in the interest of the public.
