IMPORTANT RAILROAD DECISION


The Great Northern Cannot Consolidate
with the Northern Pacific.
WASHINGTON. March 3l.-Justice Brown
delivered the opinion of the supreme court
yesterday in the cases of Thomas pcarsall
VS.. the Great Northern Railway company,
and also of the Louisville and Nashville
Railway company VS.. the commonwealth
OF Kentucky, as TO the right Of parallel
and competing railroad lines to consoli-
date, holding in the case of the Great
Northern that it could not under its
charter, and in opposition to the act Of the
Minnesota legislature of 1874, be consoli-
dated with the Northern Pacific, as was
sought to be accomplished. Justices Field
and Brewer dissented i'm the case. In the
Kentucky case IA like opinion was rendered.
Justice Shiras handed down the opin-
ion of the supreme court yesterday in the
case of the Texas Pacific railroad VS.. the
interstate commerce commission, appealed
from the circuit court of appeals for the
StcOnd circuit and known as the import
rate case The opinion of the supreme
court reversed the opinion of the circuit
court, which held that it was illegal to
charge less ON imported goods than ON do
mcstic articles. The effect of the opinion
is to continue the alleged discrimination
in the interest of foreign shippers.
A decision was rendered by the supreme
court yesterday in the case known as the
long and short haul case, involving the
validity of the provision of the interstate
commerce act prohibiting higher charge
for a short than for u long haul, appealed
from the decision of the circuit court Of
appeals for the Fifth circuit. The appeal
was taken by the railroads. The decision
of the court below was affirmed in the
main, the opinion holding that in cases of
shipments from one state to another on
through bills of lading railroad compan-
les could not exempt parties and give
them special riftes.

Electric Bitters is medicine suited for any
season, but perhaps more generally needed in
the spring, when the languid exhausted
feeling prevails when the liver is torpid and
sluggish and the need of tonic and altera-
tive is felt. prompt use of this medicine
has often averted long and perhaps fatal
bilious fevers. No medicine will act more
surely in counteracting and freeing the sys-
TEN from the malarial poison. Headache,
Indigestion, Constipation, Dizziness yield to

of Mrs. stone.
AKRON o., March 3l.-Anson B. Strong
was arrested yesterday at Ravenna Port
age county, and charged with the murder
of Mrs. Alvin n. Stone at Tallmadge on
Saturday night. The evidence on which
the charge is based is largely circumstan-
tial. Thirteen years ago Strong was sent
to the penitentiary for horse stealing, his
conviction being secured by the testimony
oil stone Several years later after his
release from prison, he was arrested again
Tor the same crime, and again convicted
on the testimony of Stone. He gained his
liberty the second time about three weeks
ago, and was at once suspected of the muir
der of Stone and his wife.
When taken into custody Strong said
he was at the home of his sister in Ra-
VIENNA all of Saturday night, and that he
had gone to church Sunday morning. A
search of the sisters house, however, re
suited in the discovery Of a suit of clothes
and an overcoat which had been placed by
stove to dry There were no blood stains
on the clothing, but Strong's sister said
she had washed the garments yesterday.
In one of Strong's pockets was found a
railroad ticket from Ravenna to Kent, the
latter place being within two miles of the
scene of Saturday nights tragedy
Strong was brought here at o'clock
last evening and placed in Jail. A big
crowd assembled, and, while there was no
disorder, Mayor Harper decided to pre-
vent an outbreak by ordering u militia
company to assemble at it's armory and
await developments.
