BY JUSTICE BREWER.
Opinion Handed Down in Missouri
Railroad Case.

Washington, Nov. ia decision was
rendered by the United States supreme
court today IN the case of the Missouri,
Kansas & Texas Railway company VS.
the Board of Railroad and Warehouse
commissioners of the state of Missouri.
The case came to the supreme court on
writ of error from the supreme court
of the state of Missouri and the decis-
ion of the lower court was reversed
The opinion was handed down by JUS
tice Brewer. The principal point at is
sue was on the question of the removal
of the case to the federal courts. The
case involves the legality of the charge
made by the railroad company for
across it's bridge over the Missouri
fixes the rates for carrying passengers
seems that the railroad company at
transportation across the bridge and
that an extra charge was also made for
freight crossing the bridge The prac-
tice was attacked by the railroad COM
missioners and suit brought in the state
courts to enjoin the railroad company
In the supreme court of the state the
law was sustained. Application was
made to remove the case to the federal
courts on the ground that the railroad
company is a citizen of Kansas. The
motion to this effect was overruled by
the state supreme court and it is this
decision that is overruled. The case
goes back for further proceedings.

Department of Commerce and
Industry Asked For.

Washington, Nov. 11.-Elliot Durand,
Laverene Noyes and several other Chi
cagoans representing the National Bust
ness league today presented to the pres
ident memorial urging him to recon-
mend in his message to congress the
establishment of a department of COM
MERGE and industries and also the re-
organization of the consular service on
a civil service basis.
Representative Boutelle of Illinois to-
day arranged for a future conference
with the president on the subject of the
abrogation of the treaty of 1917 with
Great Britain by which the building of
war vessels on the great lakes is in
hibited. Mr. Boutelle is much interested
in this subject. He says there are q
dozen or more ship yards on the great
lakes and that the antiquated treaty of
1917 prevents them from sharing the
work of building smaller vessels OF the
navy with the seaboard ship yards.
President Roosevelt has not been able
yet to find a team of horses to his liking.
He has examined at least a dozen pairs,
but all of them have had some defect.
The hostler of the White House stables
returned yesterday from a trip to Bal
timore where he visited the horse mar
ket, but reported that he had found no
suitable horses with long tails. The
president is opposed to the practice of
docking the tails of horses and will not
consider the purchase of bangtailed ami
mails, no matter what other qualifica-
lions they may have.

WASHBURN TEAM AT HOME.
Football Players Back From Western
Trip.

The Washburn football team returned
home from the western trip Saturday
afternoon here. The team comes back
with two defeats and one victory to it's
credit The two defeats by the Denver
Athletic club and the Denver Wheel
mans club are the only defeats Wash
burn has suffered this year. In the two
games referred to their defeat is ex-
cused on the grounds that they were
simply overpowered by force of weight.
The remainder of this week will be
spent in resting up and training for
the game Saturday with the Kansas
Medics In the short space of time
since the team was organized at the
Medical college a formidable line has
been mustered. In this fact the OBJ
stacle the Washburn team claimed
stood in the way OF game with this
team early in the season, is overcome.
In view of the two victories by the
Kansas Medics recently over the KAN
SaS City DentalS and the semi profess
sional team of the Atchison Athletic
club there is considerable doubt as 10
the outcome of the Washburn- Medics
game Saturday.
No little amount of protest has been
made on the score that Washburn IS
not keeping up the schedule of games
arranged for and advertised before the
season tickets were sold. Holders of
season tickets think they are
not being treated fairly. The two
games cancelled are the ones that We're
to have been played with Manhattan
and Texas here.
The game Saturday with the Medics
is arranged to substitute for the Man
haitian game, for the holders of season
tickets. It will be without question a
much better game than the one sche-
duled with Manhattan would have been
and there can be objection that
score.
1t remains to be seen however, wheth-
ed another game may be arranged that
will attract as much interest as the
Texas game.
Washburn will line up as follows in
the game Saturday: Center, Ritchie
+. e., Dadisman; l. g., Steele; +. t., Max
we'll; l. t., Cunningham; 7. e., Cave; l. e..
G. Anderson; a., Worsley; r. h., Mehl;
l. h., P Anderson and f. b., Gill.

"ABSOLUTE" SYSTEM.
Union Pacific Putting in the Soma
phore Signal System.

The Union Pacific is putting in the
block systems on its main line from
Kansas City to Denver. The system is
known as the absolute" system and
semaphore signals have been erected at
the stations along the line. 1t is ex-
pected that the work will be completed
by December l, and the new method
will do away with the present train
order system. The block system pre-
vents more than one train on a track
between stations at a time, and the
responsibility is partly taken from the
chief dispatcher and borne by the indi-
vidual operator.
During the past two years the Union
Pacific has done much toward improV-
ing its line through Kansas, and the
block system is only one of the many
improvements.

Sonora oranges are ripe this two
weeks earlier than ever before The
first shipment was made over a week
ago and went to Kansas City over the
Santa Fe That was only one car, but
least half dozen more have followed
over that line. 1t is expected that the
crop in the vicinity of Hermosillo this
year will approximate 300 car loads of
shipping fruit. The quality is also far
better than last year.
The acreage planted to oranges in
Sonora is being increased yearly and
the growers are beginning to care for
their orchards and to pay more atten-
ton to the proper methods of gathering
and packing.

GAMING AND GAMBLING.
Dr. Adler Thinks Civilized Life Is Least
Given to This Form Of Vice.

NEW YORK. Jan. 21.-Dr. Felix Ad-
Ter In Carnegie Hall, during the course
of an address on The Gambling Pas
sion and Its Consequences" made a
distinction between gaming and gamb-
ling. The former might BE- for recre-
alton but when the element Of gain is
widened It becomes gambling.
The savage and the child are natur-
al gamblers" he said. The streets Of
this city swarm with gambling children.
crap Is prevalent species Of gambling
among them. The Chinese and the
Italians are passionate gamblers. On
the whole. civilized life is the least CIV
en- TO gambling and particularly the life
which is orderly and regular is apt to
be free from II.
1t is sometimes said that all busi-
ness is speculative ana to a considera-
bic extent this is true. Every man. al
most, vino attempts to carry out any
great work is speculating and such
speculaling is productive Of the great
est good to the world. But the differ
ence between him and the gambler Is
that his success depends upon toll and
foresight The gambler wants wages
without working. He wants TO live
well without effort For this reason
he is anti-social in his aims.
Much is said nowadays about the
produce and stock exchange. 1t is un-
loubtedly true that they offer chan es
for gambling excelled by no faro bank
anywhere. Yet a careful examination
will show, l think, that they are a
valuable element in progress.
What we need to do in this day is
to lend our influence to the unspecula-
tive side Of life. In spite of some i'm
provements this city is still wide open.
Give me what is squandered at the
card tables in this city and l viii
change the face Of New York"
