COURT ovERRULEs COMMISSION.
Case Of Discrimination on Railways Comes
Before the National Jurists.


Before the National Jurists.
Washington, Nov. Am opinion Of
the supreme court was handed down
yesterday by Justice Shiras, in which
the interstate commerce commission is
overruled. The action was begun before
the interstate commerce commission in
1892 upon petition from the board Of
trade Of Troy, Ala, alleging a dis
elimination by the roads against that
town in the interest of Montgomery and
other places. The roads defended their
rates as necessary to meet water trans
portation. but the commission decided
against them and also held that
preference in rates should not be given
except upon authority of the commits
sion. The court overruled the commits
sion on both points, holding first that
competition is one of the most obvious
and effective circumstances that make
the conditions under which a long and
short haul is performed substantially
dissimilar
Upon the other point as to whether
railroad companies can be relieved from
the operation of the long and short haul
clause of the interstate commerce act
without first invoking the consent of the
commission, Justice Shiras said: I'VE
are unable to suppose that congress in
tended to forbid common carriers in
cases where the circumstances and con-
ditions are substantially dissimilar from
making different rates until and unless
the commission shall authorize them to
do so.''
Justice Harlan dissented from the
opinion. remarking: 1T not only min
imizes the power Of the interstate COM
merce commission far below the inten-
ton OF congress with reference to it,
but it puts into the hands of the rail-
road companies the power to SO ar
range the transportation business Of
the country as TO destroy the business
of intermediate points"

iIgs of brother succor the unfortunate,
zealously watch at the bedside of the sick,
soothe the dying pillow. perform the last
sad rites at the grave Of brother, offering.
consolation to the afflicted, and caring for
the widow and orphan. Having these prin-
ciples in view, they endeavor to exemplify
them by practice, and feel that the mis-
sion of Odd Fellowship has not been in
vain.
