CASE HUNG FIRE TEN YEARS.
Supreme Court Has Just Handed
Down important Decision.

Yesterday the Eagle contained an ac-
count of the decision of the supreme court
regarding a case brought by the United
States against the Missouri Pacific for
determinations in freight rates against
Wichita and in favor Of Omaha, Neb
This case has been pending for nearly ten
years. IT was on Juy 26, 1893 that the
case was filed in the United States cir
cult court here by q. w. Ady, then
United States district attorney.
The bin OF complaint stated that from
St. Louis to Holden, Mo, distance of 232
miles all freight hauled by the Missouri
Pacific to Wichita, Kan. and Omaha,
Neb., passed over the same line. At this
point one road ran northwest to Omaha
and the other southwest TO Wichita. The
distance from St. Louis to Wichita is ass
miles, and from st. Louis To Omaha it
is sol miles with physical conditions OF
the territory practically the same TO both
points, ana the cost of operation could not
b. much more 70 Wichita than TO Omaha
IL any more. as the distance is nearly 50
miles shorter.
The freight tariffs at that time gave the
following schedule of rates to both points
from st. Louis

Rut Nant Wichitans to Buy
Some Stock.

The Chamber of Commerce is working
tory for this city. Mr.. Koehler. real
estate man, laid the proposition before
the organization and it has been taken
up and considerable corresponding is
being done at present looking toward a
definite announcement from the COM
pany what they need and what is asked
for.
The firm is the George H. Arthur Plane
Manufacturing company of Terre Haute,
Ind. The company is not large one but
their goods are good and the product
has quite a reputation throughout the
country. The company has found condi-
tons not what they desire TO increase
their business in Indiana. and want to
get into some western city with good
railroad facilities, and have given Wich-
ita the first chance TO secure them.
The company does not ask for a bonus
more than a suitable site, and this they
will pay a reasonable price to own, but
they will not come here unless some of
the citizens subscribe to their capital
stock. The company guarantees that the
investment will pay 10 per cent. They
say it has done so for years and is in
creasing all of the time. If they move

capital stock and work on a larger scale
than formerly. The company has been
established a number of years and is
given good ratings in business circles.
