AS noted in The Herald some time
ago, it is not absolutely certain that
Los Angeles will set the next conven-
ton of the National Education associa-
ton, because the proposition is meet
ing with a good deal of opposition
from many of the western roads.
When the Christian Endeavor con-
vention was held at San Francisco two
years ago, round trip rate Of $50 was
made and the result was a serious de-
mOralization of passenger rates to the
Pacific coast. 1t also killed a good deal
of the seasons tourist business to Colo
RADIO and Utah. California lines have
again offered a $50 rate. which other
lines claim to be insufficient
When the association has held it's
meetings in the east, railroads have
made a rate of one single fare for the
round trip. plus 81, which has gone to
the Golfers of the association. WGStern
roads refuse to do this now, because
it will seriously affect the Pacific coast
excursion business.
Under these conditions, it is not I'M
likely that Salt Lake may still secure
the meeting, as the arguments would
not apply so forcibly if this city is Sc
lected.

MRS. coDY'S ANGER.
She Was the "scapegoat For the
Whole Dirty Crowd"

Albany, n. Y, Dec. 5.-The fifth day
of the trial of Mrs. Cody on the charge
of blackmail was resumed in the county
court today. with Mrs. Cody again on
the stand under the cross examination
OF Delaney Nicoll, counsel for the
Goulds. Mr.. Nicoll handed Mrs. Cody
a book containing the baptismal record
of a church in Cooperville, Clinton
county, in which was a record of the
baptism of child, the parents of which
were alleged to be Jay Gould and Mrs
Angel, under her maiden name of
Sarah Ann Brown, and asked her if
she had ever seen the book. She re-
piled in the negative.
Counsel stated that the names of the
real parents of the child had been
erased and those of Jay Gould and Mrs.
Angel substituted.
asked by Mr.. Nicon before the court
took a recess was:
Did you not promise Mary Ann
Shields that you would give her $4,000
if she would swear as a witness to the
marriage of Jay Gould and Mrs. An
gell?" to which Mrs. Cody replied: II
never did"
During the afternoon session, Mrs
Cody was subjected to a severe cross
examination by Nicoll, and lost her
temper, for the first time since the trial
begun. She exclaimed, pettishly:
You put all the questions to me,
don't you, and I am the1scapegoat for
the whole dirty crowd?" On redirect
examination she swore that she had
never had in her possession at any time
d marriage certificate showing that Jay
Gould was married to Mary Ann
Brown.
The case will no doubt go to the jury
tomorrow, as Mr.. Dugan has but one
witness to call, and Mr.. Nicoll two in
rebuttal. The prosecution expects to
prove some startling things by Mr. Car
valho. an expert in chirography, rela-
tive to the baptismal record in the
Catholic church in Champlain, which
looks very much as if it had been tam
pered with.

Decision Ia Taxation case.

Washington, Dec. SIN the United
States supreme court today an opinion
was entered by Justice McKenna in the
case of the territory of New Mexico
against the United States Trust COM
pany and the receiver Of the Atlantic
& Pacific railroad. The case involved
the right of the territorial authorities to
tax the Improvements of the railroad
company on it's right of way without
the taxing the right of way itself. The
decision did not sustain this contention,
but it affected the decision of the ter
ritorial supreme court adverse to the
taxation of the concession.

ANTI-scALPTNe LAW.
Ticket Brokers Taking Great Interest
In the Bill.

Ticket Brokers Taking Great Interest
In the Bill.
Ticket scaIpers all over the country
are taking a great deal of interest in
the anti-scalping bill now before con-
gress. The fact that the anti-seaIping
law Of New York was declared uncon-
stitutional does not lessen their IN
easiness to any great extent, although
the prospects for any adverse 1egisla-
ton to the brokerage business seem
slim.
The railroads are working industri-
ously to push the passage of the bill,
and it's central committee at Chicago
is sending out carloads of literature
bearing on the question. The anti
scalping committee announces that it's
organization is composed Of leading
merchants in all the chief cities of the
country. Scalpers say the organization
is nothing but a railroad combination
and that the merchants" are interest,"
ed railway men.
Oscar Groshell, one Of the leading
brokers here, yesterday received a let
ter from George NJ. Mckenzie, secre-
tary of the executive committee Of the
American Ticket Brokers association,
in which he says:
II am glad to inform you that on
yesterday. at Indianapolis, the Mer-
chants club unanimously rejected a
proposition to recommend the anti
scalping bill before congress. They
granted me the privilege of addressing
them at a banquet. which was given
in order that I might be able TO reply
to the statements made by A. NJ. Comp
ton, who poses as a merchant in Chi
cagO, but in reality is employed by the
railroads to make the fight. The rail-
roads, after twenty five years of con-
test, have doubtless concluded that
they cannot win, so they have resOrted
to a subterfuge and secured the serv-
ices of some so-called merchants to
pull their chestnuts out of the fire.
The above only serves to illustrate
the manner in which railroads and
ticket scalpers are fighting.
