The State Rates Upheld.

Judge Foster on Monday handed
down his opinion 10 the Kansas City
stock yards case, in which he decided
against the company on every legal
question raised. The opinion is very
sweeping and the decision is a COM
plete victory for Attorney General
Boyle.
The stock yards company will ap.
peal to the United States supreme
court.
The Kansas City stock yards case
grew out of the efforts of the stock
yards company to prevent the enforce
ment OF the law passed by the last
Kansas legislature reducing yardage
charges. The taking Of testimony in
the ease was begun in Topeka on
April 30 last, George W. Clark, assis-
tant attorney general OF Kansas, act
Ing as special master. The purpose
of the stock yards was to prove that
the present charges were reasonable,
that the prices fixed by the Kansas
legislature were ruinOus, and that in
attempting to fix the rates the state
interfered With interstate commerce
The yards lie in both Kansas Citys,
being situated on the MisSouri.Ka
line. To the company, which is the
second largest in the country, the re-
suit OF the case means thousands il
not million OF dollars.
The case was brought in such a
shape as to make Boyle and not the
state defendant, although it was an
attack on the state law passed by the
last legislature to regulate and reduce
charges on live stock at the yards.
and an application for an injunction
to restrain Boyle as a state officer
from enforcing the law.
There were three points on which
the stock yard owners relied. Judge
Foster said that none Of them could
stand. His decision, boiled down to
a few words, is:
The law governing stock yard
charges was regularly passed BY the
Kansas legislature. The stock yards
company is only an incident of COM
MERGE and, in the absence OF action by
congress. is subject to the state laws.
Congress has not acted tc tx regula.
lions governing it. The charges fixed
by the legislature would give a rea
souahIe return on the capital in
vested.

More Trouble for Brann

Waco, Tex. Oct. 6.-This afternoon
W. c. Brann, editor of the Iconoclast,
was publicly beaten by Judge ]. B.
Scarborough, George Scarborough and
r. Fl. Hamilton. The difficulty be-
gan 10 the Provident building and
was continued for half block On the
street, until Brann fell in heap 90

bleeding from dozen savage cuts on
the head and face.
In less than five minutes q thous-
and excited citizens had gathered o.
the scene and there was every indica-
tiOn Of trouble. Six.shooters were 10
evidence and for a time it looked az II
nothing could avert row, but the
sheriff and his deputies were on the
scene and forced the crowd back and
restored order. Brann's assailants
were arrested.
Judge Scarborough is trustee OF
Baylor university and has daughter
In the university. He says BranD's
recent attack in his paper on the unl.
versity is what caused the trouble
this afternoon. Young Scarborough
and Hamilton were students in the
institution and say that Brann's at
tack was beyond endurance. After
the affair Brann made this state.

Paying the Taxes.

A short time ago a Deputy Sheriff OF
Letcher County, only a short distance
from here, had a claim for taxes
against citizen of Mill Creek, amount
ing to eighty cents, and as the citizen
was a desperate character the deputy
induced a brave man to go with him
both being armed to the teeth. Arriv-
ing at their destination, the Deputy de-
manded his money, but the citizen in
formed him that he did not have it. The
deputy proceeded to levy ON a COW, and
started to drive the "critter" off, when
the citizens wife prevailed on him tC
stay and take dinner with them. After
dinner, being in a happy and kindly
mood, he invited the citizen and his
wife to make him visit, and as he
was about to take his leave the gentle
wife told him she had a settlement to
make with him.
''Wha-what settlement do you refer
to, madam"
you have not paid for your dinner
SIR she replied.
ooh! why, certainly; wh-what's my
bill, my good woman?"
"One dollar, If you please"
He wrote a receipt for the taxes and
gave it to her, with twenty cents. and
returned home a sadder, but wiser
