STOCK YARDS LAW VALID
Application for Temporary Injunction Denied
and the Temporary Restraining
Order Revoked.

Judge Foster, of the United States
District court at Topeka, holds the stock
yards law passed by the last Legislature
constitutional and has dissolved the tenn
porary injunction against the operation
of the law.
When the injunction suit was brought
by two of the stockholders Of the stock
yards company it was done on the ground
that the law was unconstitutional for
the reasons that it was claimed that it
had not been passed regularly, that the
business Of the stock yards company was
interstate commerce and could not be
regulated by State Legislature, and the
schedule Of charges was unreasonable
and unjust. Foster holds the claims Of
the stockholders in error in all of the
three points.
In reference to the first question, as to
whether the bill regulating the stock
yards charges was regularly passed by
the Kansas Legislature, the contention
of the stock yards people being that the
title was imperfect because the substi
tute had a different title from that ex-
pressed in the regular bill, Judge Foster
decided that the Journals of both houses
mentioned the substitute and the law
was therefore regularly passed.
The second contention, that the bust
ness of the stock yards company was in
terstat in character and could be
regulated only by Congress and was be-
yond the power of the State to control,
was discussed at great length in the de-
cision. In making summary Of the
decisions quoted and arguments offered
Judge Foster said:
From the best consideration l have
been able to give this subject, reason
ing from analogy and applying princi-
pies announced in decided cases. l am
of the opinion that the stock yards COM
pany performing duties for mixed
traffic, interstate and local, is such an
incident to commerce as may be re-
stricted in it's charges by acts Of the
Legislature in the absence of Congress
sional action"
AS to the third point, the Judge anal
yzed the masters report on the value of
the companys property and it's income,
and said: -
while this question is not entirely
free from doubt, am not willing to say
that the percentage of profit which will
be realized upon this property under
either of the valuations above referred
to is so unfair and unjust as to make
the law unconstitutional.
"The application for temporary in
junction is denied, and the temporary
restraining order is revoked"

AS Viewed in London.

London, October 4.--The newspapers
here generally pay much attention to the
New York campaign, publishing long ar
ticles dispatches and editorials ON the
subject.
The Globe says: Judging from the
Times dispatch, Henry George will be
the next Mayor. The Americans do not
exceed quarter of the whole population,
and the European anarchists, Socialists,
Italians, Poles, Hungarians and Rus
slams, all the very lowest Of their race,
will support the man whose childish
economies and wild theories are detested
in every capital in Europe. These being
the people who sway public opinion, it
is the height of absurdity to rave about
blood being thicker than water"
The Pail Mall Gazette's article is writ
ten by an American and concludes by
stating that Tammany will win.

ing that he was about to forward $4,000,
the amount Of duty collected from pros
pectors who took American goods over
the Skaguay and Dyea trails on their
way to the Klondike.
Alexander TraynOr, who has been with

men passed Telegraph creek, bound for
Kl0ndike by all the Canadian routes.

New YOrk Democrats Stand by Tammanz

New York, October 1.-The Democratic

candidates for offices of Greater New

Manhattan; Comptroller, Bird S. Coler,

The ticket had been agreed upon by
the Tammany Executive committee be-

Virginia Republican offce-seekers were
very much in evidence here to-day and

Kent has however, lately enlarged the
scope Of his ambition and would not OBJ
ject 10 succeeding Hon. Alexander Mas
donald az Minister at the court OF the
Shah. Mr.. Kent did not exactly re-
ceive the Executives promise OF any
early appointment but was courteously
and kindly received by the President.
General Walker afterwards presented
him TO Secretary Sherman. who pron.is ed
to talk the matter over with the Presi-
dent.
Shortly after the departure of these
gentlemen. National Committeeman Bow
den called on the President with Hon.
Robert J. Walker, OF Shenandoah.
These gentlemen presented Mr. Mayer,
Of Frederick county. Va, who desires TO
enter the foreign service Mr. mayer
prefers TO be located in one OF the South
American Republics and some time ago
filed an application at the state Depart
ment for the consulate at Valparaiso.

preceded them these gentlemen did not
retire from the Executives presence
with q draft on the Secretary OF state

the Richmond cbarmer will not charm our
beloved O'Kelley from Georgia. Somehow
we feel that he belongi to Georgia, and
wa believe that his h\uence for good
in this State is so great, and promises TO

head and loving heart to help TO lead her

she is now entering. OKelley must not
