AGAINST THE COMPANIES
Garland of Federal Court De-
Cides Against Companies in
Anti Case.

Judge Garland, of the federal court
at Sioux Falls, has just made his de-
cision in the case instituted by the
thirty insurance companies, repre-
sented by Preston g. Hanneut. as at
torneys, seeking to establish the un-
constltutionality of the anti compact
law, and causing the state insurance
commissioner to hold in allegiance
the putting. of that law into.execu-
tion. The state demurred o the
complaint of the companies and the
court sustained the attorney general
in his contentious. The concluding
portion of Judge Car!and's decision in
the case is as follows:
Clearly these compliments have the
option either to cease business in the
state Of South Dakota or comply with
the law in question. They have no
constitutional. rights that are in
fringed by it, and if they have not
they cannot be heard to say that 9th
er corporations have.
The attention of the court has been
called to the cases Of the Niagara
Insurance company VS.. Cornell, ITO
federal report 816, in the United
States circuit court for the district
of Nebraska, and the Greenwich In
surance company VS.. Carroll, in the
circuit court Of the southern district
of Iowa.
The opinion Of the presiding judges
in those cases have been examined,
and from such examination this court
cannot adopt the reasoning which
led to the result reached in said
cases.
In conversation with j. L.. Han
nett, of the firm Of Preston & Han
nett, he was asked what would be
the next move Of the insurance CON-
panles in the matter He stated that
when the firm accepted the case it
was with the understanding that if
defeated it would be taken to the
highest court for a decision, but he
was unable to say at this time what
would be the definite action Ut the
thirty companies represented in the
case. One of the firm, he said, would
very likely GO to Chicago, the latter
part of the week for a conference
with the managers oftthe case for the
companies, and it would there be de-
termined whether the case will be
taken to the circuit court of appeals
at St. Louis, or the United States
supreme court, or whether the CON-
panies would withdraw entirely from
the business in South Dakota. The
talk is somewhat strong OF with
drawing from the state, as the COM
panies claim that it would be next to
impossible to transact the business
under the law, inasmuch as it would
require too much expense to look af-
ter the actual value of the risks to be
written. Mr.. Hannett said that the
companies feel that they are being
imposed npcn by the passage Of a law
which .IactS their business after
havir :. to the expense Of estab-
lishi , .gencies throughout the
| state.

widow OF the Late Car Magnate Gets
a Severe Jolt.
A well known Cambridge (Mass.)
doctor, in the meeting of a society
held at his house a short time ago,
to Mrs. George Pullman, widow of the
late car magnate. A friend or mine
(the name might have been Anderson)
was i'll with shaking palsy. He was a
western man and had many peculiar
tiles. One was that when he went into
a place where it was warm he would
take off his jacket. He came to me
for advice, and | referred him to a
New York specialist. He called upon
the doctor one day and, taking off his
coat, sat down in a chair.
Shortly afterwards two well dressed
ladies entered and both looked at
him in establishment One was about
to leave. The other said that she
would send in her card and have tbs
man removed. They evidently thought
he was intoxicated. The doctor came
out in response to the card, with
smiling face. He bowed to Mrs. Pull.
man and then to Mr.. Anderson. He
then introduced the latter to the great
lady.
When Mr.. Anderson caught the
name Pullman" he asked If she was
the wife of George Pullman. She an.
swered affirmatively. He said: We'll,
am glad to meet you. I remember
George when he used to work for
me for $3.50 a day"

Oh, He's All Riqht.

OF coarse, every young mother

This is not intended as a startling

boys at home, met in one of the large

chases about the same time. AS they
were all leaving the place, within
speaking distance of each other, a
fresh young assistant, in an effort tc
be pleasant, fired the stereotyped
question at one of them, How is the

In an instant four beaming faces
were turned towards him and four
pleased voices answered in chorus,
