hesitate to stop him.
"You are wicked boy" she said.

RAILROADS WON.
The Nebraska Freight Rate Case De-.
cided to Be Unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court.

Washington, March THE Supreme
Court to-day rendered an opinion in
the Nebraska maximum freight rate
case. The opinion was handed down
by Justice Harlan
Justice Harlan's opinion held the Ne
braska law to be contrary TO the four
teentn amendment in that it authorized
the taking of property without due
process Of law and was therefore in
valid. Hence the railroads won.
Justice Harlan's opinion affirmed the
opinion Of the Circuit Court Of APP
peals for the eighth circuit which was
against the minimum freight rate law
and favorable to the railroads.
This case was instituted to test the
validity Of a law passed by the Ne
braska legislature in 1893. prescribing
the maximum rates for the transport
tation of freight by railroads within
the State. The act applies specihcal-
" 70 freight whose transit begins and
ends in the State. and there was no ef-
fort in its enactment TO conceal in
terstate freight 1t affected all the
railroads in the State. and the rail-
road companies instituted the proceed
ings which were terminated by to-
days opinion by filing bill in the
the Nebraska circuit court soon after
the law was enacted The object of
the bill was TO secure an order re-
sgraining the State officials from put
ting the law into force.
The law was attacked on the ground
Of its constitutionality. 1t was charg
cable with a discrimination against
them and therefore antagonistic to the
spirit of the fourteenth amendment to
the constitution. They contended that
the maximum fixed was unreasonable
and runious TO the roads. Il was also
asserted that the act interfeTed with in
terstaJe commerce. The State met
these allegations with argument in
support OF the validity OF the law and
also with the counter charge that the
case was one OF which federal courts
could not properly take jurisdiction.
The decision in the circuit court was
delivered by Justice Brewer. Of the
Supreme Court, who sustained the con-
tenticn OF the railroad companies and
held against the validity Of the Law.
His opinion was based largely upon the
charge Of unreaSonableness He made
4 computation showing that the reduc-
ton affected in freight rates amount
ed on an average 10 291e per cent.
which he held was too great z change.
The case has been twice argued in
the Supreme Court. Hon ". J. Bryan
appearing as one OF the counsel for the
state Al the last hearing. Much inter-
est has been manifested in the decision
ever since the case was dccketed be-
cause Of The probable influence : r.
suit favorable to the LAW would have
