WRIT OF CUSTER RECALLED.

Insurance Companies to ContinCe In
Business on Payment of 1000 Fine.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, July 15.-The
state supreme court in banc yes
terday overruled the motion for re-
hearing made by the seventy-three
fire insurance companies effected by
the recent decision of the court. As
soon as the announcement was made
Given Campbell and James R. Waddi1,
counsel for the companies, filed a mo-
ton to modify Judgment
The motion set out that the COM
panies doing business at st. Joseph
did not intend to violate the law, and
they asked the court to set aside the
order for custer and to grant them
authority to again be licensed and to
continue business in the state of Mis-
souri, along such lines as the court
may deem proper and just in the
premises.
The court in banc ordered the sus-
pension of the writ of custer against
the companies and entered fine of
81, 900 each against them. These fines
must be paid to the clerk of the SUI
preme court within thirty days from
this date and the companies will then
be permitted to be relicensed and to
do business in Missouri again.

every day life of the people. Their

those found about Manila, and the ma

cultural implements, will here be
found. There are also Cuban villages,
Hawaiian villages, and natives Of Por-

goes to show the daily life and habits
of these people. There is reprodec-
ton of the famous MORO Castle at
Havana, scenic theaters, streets of all
nations, and all the various attractions
which go to make up that great amuse-
ment resort known as the Midway.

beautiful, unique and novel attrac-
lions of the exposition. The heavens

Greater America Exposition manage
ment is determined to bring this show
up to the demands of public opir.ion

All counties in the United States are
invited and solicited to make a dis
play, no charge being made for space
in the agricultural building, and
every assistance possible being oc-
corded exhibitors in getting their ex-
hioits in place.
The amusement features surpass
those of last year, both in point OF
numbers and in the quality of the at
fractions. The Midway is; as usual,
fantastic, unreal, and bizarre, and yet,
withal, instructive and entertaining.
The principal features OF the Trans
Mississippi are seen, but there are nu-
merous new attractions of more than
ordinary interest. Among the latter
will be Filipino village, with a num-
Der of native men, women and child
