. fB7 Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, y. c., March 1o.-The
United States Supreme Court to-day de-
cided he Illinois antitrust statute to be
unconstitutional because of the provision

ucts and live stock from the operations
of the law. The decision was rendered
in the case of Thomas Connolly and
others against the Union Sewer Pipe
Company, of Ohio, and was delivered by
Justice Harlan.
The decision of the court in effect de-
clares unconstitutional the antitrust laws
of Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana.
Michigan. Mississippi, Montana, Ne
braska. North Carolina. South Dakota,
Tennessee. Texas and Wisconsin. In each
Of these States there is an exemption in
favo rof live stock and agricultural prod
ucts in the hands OF the raiser or pro-
queer or of labor organiZa tons Under
the rulings OF tle court an antitrust
to be unconstitutional must apply indls-
crim!nately to all commissions with no
exemptions or exceptions whatever.

SHORT ON CARS
And the Oil Mill Men Are Raising
a Howl.

The Clarion Ledger of yesterday
contains the following concerning the
shortage of cars:
"A number of oil mill managers
appeared before the railroad commits
sion this afternoon and asked that
some steps be taken to relieve the
shortage of cars on the various rail-
roads operating in the state.
The mill managers hope that the
commission will be able to grant the
necessary relief by issuing orders to
the various roads relative to the
handling Of the empties, and that
they will be directed to employ more
cars in local traffic instead of sending
all empties north to haul export grain
1t is claimed by the managers that
they have thousands of tons of cotton
seed at the various stations and in
seed houses awaitiang to be moved,
while it is an absolute impossibility
TO get the desired number of cars As
a result the seed are rotting and
losing value each day.
Some of the mills have offered to
exempt the railroads from all damage
claims if they will move the seed in
coal cars, but the companies, with but
one or two exceptions have refused to
do so. All empties on the southern
divisions, Immediately after being
unloaded are hurried back north to
the expert grain business, and the cot
ton oil mill business is being seriously
crippled as a result. The matter was
thoroughly discussed at the afternoon
session of the commission, but thus
far no action has been taken.

SENSATIONAL CHARGES
Prevented by the Resignation OF
Warden Parchman.
,ial to the Daily Progress.

Jackson, Dec. 3-To prevent the
introduction of fresh charges of a SEN
sational nature, Warden j. NJ. Parch-
man has rendered his resignation and
will not serve the remainder of his
term, which is only of one month du-
ration. He retired from Office yester-
day, his resignation being promptly
accepted, and J. J. Henry, the warden
elect, instructed to fill out the unex-
pired term.
The charge that would have been
preferred against Warden Parchman,
had he not resigned, was the working
of one hundred of the state convicts
on his own plantation and making no
report thereof to the board of control.
Commissioner May was in possession
of the evidence, and by resigning the
warden virctually admitted his guilt.

to the ground, barely missing the
