The Extinction of the Beaver.
From the Springfield (Mo) Leader-Dem

oCrat.
The beaver is now almost extinct in
southwest Missouri, where once the in
dustrious and cunning animal could be
found in every stream. The presence of
this interesting creature, whose fur has
always been so much priced throught the
world. caused the early settlers of the
OZarks to give it's name to many
streams that feed White river, South of
Springfield the creeks were full of beavers
a generation ago. and now and then a
survivor of the disappearing family may
still be found but trappers have ceased
to expect such desirable catch The
otter has also about vanished from the
waters of this country, and Springfield
fur dealers make a special display of Il
hide when they secure one.

AGAINST THE RAILROADS.
The Joint Traffic Case Reversed by
the supreme Court.

Washington Oct. 81 - The United
States supreme court today decided the
Joint Traffic Association railroad case in
favor of the United States and against the
railroads. The case was considered one Of
the most important that has ever come be-
fore the supreme court, not only to the
railroads, but to the general public, and
because of the vast railroad properties rep
resented by the Traffic Association.
The association was formed November
10, 1898, by 81 railways, representing the
great trunk lines. The purpose of the as
ISOLATION, as stated in the agreement, was
to establish and maintain reasonable and
lust rates, fares, and regulations of state
and interstate traffic. a similar associa-
ton, on a smaller scale, was formed
among the southwestern railroads, known
as the Trans Missouri Association, and
the supreme court, in a notable opinion,
declares the association illegal.
Justice Peckham announced the decision
today. He said the court could distin-
Trans Missouri case decided a year ago.
He said the only new point involved was
as to the constitutionality of the trust act.
The court had reached the conclusion that
as railroad corporations performed duty of
a semi public character, it was within the
power of congress to regu-
late them as provided by the antitrust
act.
The opinion, which was very brief, was
concurred in by Chief Justice Fuller and
Justices Harlan, Brewer, Brown and Peck
ham; Justices Gray, Shiras and White
Justice McKenna took no part
in the case.
Under the decision today the decisions
of the United States circuit court for the
southern district of New York and of the
United States court of appeals, both of
which were favorable to the Joint Traffic
are reversed.
