and during what part Of the day.
In the program as arranged by Super.
intendent Benbow the whole Of the work
for each day is given on one page and
can be seen at glance. This arrangement
will be appreciated by the teachers, who
have heretofore had hard time to keep
in mind the place and hour when topics
which would be Of special interest to them
would be discussed.
The arrangement of the program this
year will facilitate matters and will re-
mind each teacher where any subject is
to be discussed. The institute will open
Monday morning, March 2S, and close
Friday afternoon, April |.
Among the instructors will be Dr.. r.. A.
Winship of Boston, Mass. The entire

GYPSIES ARRIVE

SEATTLE, March l4.-Gypsies, already
beginning their summers wshderings,
picked out Seattle as a temporary abiding
place yesterday afternoon and pitchdi
their smoke-grimed tents near Interplay.
Hundreds who wanted to get glimpse
into the future or had an eye TO tempt
fate by trading horses with itinerant sons
of Romany, visited the place before the
sun had set.
Half score Of NANCY dogs snarled al
the heels of these callers, and dirty y-faced
children hung about them like swarm Of
fies. The swarthy men and red and green
Glad women busted themselves in their sep
arate voeatio IS of traders and seers by
getting possession of many bright pieces Of
silver and the vagabonds began their stay

LOST THE cow,
WANTS HIS MONEY

Joseph Tilcinsky Of Wilkeson has
brought suit in the superior court to
recover the sum of $l25 from Frank Mar
Gus, from whom he bought a COW some
time ago. 1t appears from the complaint
that Vilcinsky purchased the COW from
Marcus, but that the real owner was Mrs.
Ella Woitolewicz. Marcus claims that
he did not represent to Vilcinsky that he
owned the animal but that he sold her
anyway. Not long after Vilcinslry bought
the animal, the real owner, through due
process of law, recovered the COW, and as
result the purchaser is out the price
paid and considerable amount besides.
The case comes up on an appeal from the
iastiee court at Wilkeson.

JAP SHELLS DID MORE EXECUTION
THAN RUSSIAN OFFICIALS ADMIT

YINK0W, March l4.--The facts regard
ing last Thursdays bombardment of Port
Arthur by the Japanese are gradually
leaking out.
The wives of Russian officers who have
arrived at Newchwang state that Ss per-
sons were killed and over 100 wounded.
One Japanese shell, which landed in the
lower fort, killed one officer and a large
number of men. The Russian fleet, which
lay in the inner harhor, took little part
in the engagement, leaving the forts to re-
ply to the japanese ships.
Considerable damage was done to the
forts and some of the buildings in the
town. All except the troops have deserted

Merger of the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern Railways Held TO be a Violation of the
Antitrust Law

WASHINGTON, D. c., March l4.-The
supreme court this morning rendered it's
decision in the case of the Government
VS.. the Northern Securities company. 1t
held that the merger of the Northern Pa
Cihc and Great Northern railways was a
violation of the antitrust laws.
The decision of the court was not unani-
nous, the justices standing five to four
against the merger. Those dissenting in
favor of the Northern Securities company
were Justices Holmes, Peckham, White
and Fuller.
"the evidence fully sustains the charge
The defendants were properly accused of
monopolizing, or attempting to monopo-
lize, trade between states. The Northern
Securities company was organized as a
holding corporation, or custodian, for more
than nine-tenths of the stock of the North
ern Pacific and three-quarters of the stock
of the Great Northern. Both lines were
held as if by one ownership, and the hold
ing company dominated both roads for the
exclusive benefit of stockholders. 1t be-

SULTAN MAY LOSE
A HUNDRED WIVES

WASHINGTON, D. c., March l4-The
treaty between the United States and the
sultan of Sulu, whereby that official and
the dattos under him enjoyed certain an
nuities from the United States government
and were allowed to continue the practice
of polygamy. has been abrogated, accord
ing to cablegram sent by Secretary of
War Taft to Governor Wright of the
Philippines today
The reason given is the failure of the
sultan and the dattos to discharge their
duties and fulfill the conditions imposed
by the treaty.
The Philippine commission is directed to
pass suitable legislation in the matter.
The disturbances on the island of Jolo
made this action speedier than was con-
templated. This action will forestall the
special bill which congress has under con-
sideration.

SETTLERS MAY
RETAIN LANDS

A dispatch from st. Paul says that Presi-
dent Howard Elliott, of the Northern Pa
cifc has decided that settlers who have
taken up land in the tract involved in liti-
CATION, known as the overlap" land case,
which was recently decided by the United
States supreme court in favor of the com
pany, shall be allowed to retain their hold
ings 1t has been announced that the com
pany desires to take up with the settlers
the question of the state of the lands occu-
pied, and that commission will be ap-
pointed to appraise the land.

rame one powerful corporation, so that
competition between constituent eompa-
nies might cease. Profits were to be dis
tributed on the basis of the stock held by
the Northern Securities company. The
combination is one in the shape of trust.
No scheme or device could more thorough
ly be combination in the form of trust
in restraint of trade
The court denied the sacredness of the
doctrine of states rights being trespassed
on by interstate law. "If state should
alloy railroads to do things which intes-
fere with interstate commerce. shOuH
congress be compelled to hold aloof on the
ground that it cannot invade state rights?
Such doctrine could not be given effect
without destroying the power of the ma
tional government. No state can give any
state corporation right to restrain inter-
state or international law.
The federal court cannot interfere with
the Northern Securities company and pre-
vent 1T from exercising interstate rights
justly given by a state, but it can prevent
1t from doing that which would DESTROY
an act of congress. The affirmation of
the decision of the court below only means
that no combination is stronger than the
law or can avail itself of any pretext, even
II states rights are attacked in the enforce
ment of lawful act of congress.
No combination can be so powerful as
be beyond the reach of the supreme court
II 1t undertakes to restrain commerce."
