BEGINNING OF THE SUIT
TO TEST THE REVENUE LAW

Pueblo, Colo, July S-Without form
ally making his ruling on the states
application for a change of venue in
the proceeding brought TO test the
new revenue bill, Judge N. Walter Dix
on Of the Pueblo District Court indi-
Gated so clearly that he will deny the
motion in the morning that attorneys
for the state and for the various rail
roads entered into an agreement by
which the arguments on the states de-
murrer will be taken up next Monday.
Arrayed on the side of the state when
court opened this afternoon there We're
in addition to Attorney General Post
and Assistant Attorney General

pearance in the case was entered after
formal opening of the proceedings this
afternoon. Representing the petition
ing railroads We're Willard Teller,
Charles Il. Cast, c. T.. Harrington, Ii.
A. Dubbs and G. w. Waterman.
As preliminary to the argument on
motion for a change of venue to Arap-
ahoe county, Attorney General Post
filed with the court n demurrer pro-
testing in the first instance against as
sertion of jurisdiction in the case by
the District Court of Pueblo and de-
nurrlHS 10 tne proceedings on nve sep

the grounds that the court has no
Jurisdiction of the persons OF the re-

the action: second, that the court has
no jurisdiction of the person of the re-
spondent, James b. Orman, governor
of Colorado, since the governor is
made party respondent in his official
executive capacity; finally, in general
terms that the writ does not state suf-
ticient cause for action.
Attorney Morrison opened the argu-
ment for the state on the motion for a
change of venue, contending for the
allegations set up in the motion filed
last Saturday. Judge Dixon speedily
made it clear that under the law his
view was that the question of change
of venue depended on construction of
the statutes permitting the bringing of
mandamus proceedings in county in
which the whole or n part of the cause
OF action arose. Judge Dixon then

WONDERFUL GROWTH OF OUR

a dozen countries in 1900 to each of
which the United States exported over
$1OOOO,OOO worth of domestic products.
The United Kingdom purchased $4OS,-
100000 and Germany $134,OOO,OOO
worth.
Our agricultural exports to the Unit
ed Kingdom We're the largest on rec
ord, excepting those of the extraordin-
ary year of 1893, when value of
$439, 100000 was attained.
In our trade with Germany, the ex-
ports for 1900 We're decidedly in excess
Of any previously reported, and show
an increase of nearly 100 per cent. in
the five years period.
Next in order to the above named
! countries in 1900 We're the following:

dozen other different countries.
The total exports of domestic farm

DRIVEN INSANE BY
HEAT IN NEW YORK

New York, July with a record of
over thousand deaths due directly to
the heat and three times that number
of proStrations, the week Just passed
has been anything but happy or COM
Portable one for New Workers. The
conditions here have been simply ter
rifle, and unless one has experienced a
real New York hot spell" it is hard to
realize just what it means. If it had
not been for the thunder storms which
tempered the hot wave during the lat
ter part of the week the deaths, sui
cides and insanity cases would have
been more than three times the number
now recorded.
Driven mad by their terrific suffer-
ings scores have committed suicide. A
woman, insane from the terrible con-
ditions, took her three little ones to
the river side and threw them from the
pier into the water below and then
jumped after them. The woman and
two of the children We're rescued and
are now in hospital, but the other
little one fell victim to her mothers
insane delusion.
Only once before In the last ten years
have so many dead horses been seen in
the streets. So many died in the streets
that it was impossible to keep the thor
oughfares clear and short ride on n
street car would bring to ones eyes
eight or ten dead horses awaiting the
dead wagon.
The conditions In the tenement Sec
tions We're terrible. The five and seven
story double deckerS were literally ov-
ems, with their teeming. perspiring pop
ulation. 1t was impossible to live In
the tiny rooms and the families moved
to the fire escapes and roofs. In the
daytime the streets were practically
deserted, only those stirring abroad
who were obliged to. At night all was
changed. The cars carried three times
their usual number of passengers, peo-
pie who We're trying to gain respite in
the open air from the terrible heat. In
all the parks and along the water
fronts and on the recreation piers hun
dreds of thousands of people gathered
and slept on the ground. thus escap-
ing to certain extent the terrible con
ditions In the tencments.
