AN OPINION OF THE LAW
Attorney General Believes Wage Contracts
Can Be Made
WITHOUT VIOLATING THE ANTITRUST LAW
Changes at the Arkansas Pass station.
Rates to Various Points---Huntinw-
ton Party Went West.

The conferences between General Man
ager Van Week. representing the South
ern Pacific company, and the general
board OF division No. IS, representing the
Order OF Railway Telegraphers, have
been suspended for several days on ac-
count Of q pressure OF other business
which has occupied Mr.. Van Weeks
time.
In the meantime the members OF the
board have secured an opinion from At
torney General Tom L. Smith regarding
the antitrust law and It's relation TO con-
tracts between employer and employee. 1t
will be remembered that The Post stated
several days ago that W. R. King, repre-
senting the board, called on Attorney
General Smith at Austin and asked for
an opinion The document has been re-
ceived but the members of the order de-
cline to give It out for publication. 1t is
understood, however that the attorney
general states that the antitrust law OF
tions from its operations. and that the
law of 1899 being cumulative, the same
exemption will apply The attorney gen
eral further says. II do not believe
there is anything in the antitrust law
which viii prohibit the making Of con
tract between employer and employee, so
that the hours of labor or wages to be
paid may be agreed upon"
The members of the board consider
that they have fair legal basis in this
decision upon which to work, and they
expect to secure all they are asking for
with possibly minor amendments TO the
contract as drawn, They decline to state
however how far they have progressed
with the discussion. but admit that they
are being fairly treated by the officials
Of the company in the matters now being
presented

A WELCOME ANNOUNCEMENT
"The Little Minister" To be Seen
Here.

In connection with the engagement
of 1.-THE Little Minister" to be seen
here on Tuesday night, Nov. q, at
the Grand, it is hardly necessary to
more than announce its appearance.
The play has been such phenomenal
success, that it has become household
word. 1t is remarkable the large num-
Der of people who keep in touch with
matters theatrical. If play meets
with great success, it is not long before
the fact is generally known. There
was so much talk here regarding "The
Little Minister" that Managers Chas.
Weiser and Ben Bear, after its long run
of 300 nights i'm New York Immediately
took steps to secure it for their theatre,
and after great deal of difficulty they
have finally been able to do so. The
great pride they take in announcing
"The Little Minister" is certainly par
donable. The play has done phenom-
email business and it will be many years
before another play is produced that
will equal it as drawing attraction.
Mr.. Charles Frohman, whose company
presents the play here, has had to use
extreme care in getting together east
that could properly portray the pecu-
liar characters that appear in "'The
Little Minister" Those who have
read the novel will doubtless under
stand this fact. We strongly advise
those who intend to see this famous
comedy to be on hand early as from
the common talk the engagement has
caused, it is doubtful if there will be
seat left at the close of few days
sale,
