freight passed over but one railroad.
There once was a provision IN the
Iowa law that when a shipment passed
over two roads they should have but
so per cent of the total of the local
charges. The courts knocked out this
provision But the railroad commits
sion has power on hearing to fix an
equitable Joint rate and that is what
is in view in this case.
Governor Larrabee lives at Cler-
mont.
The courage which Governor Cum
MINIS manifested in refusing to com
mute the sentence of death in the case
of two women murderers, to life int
prisonment has been highly commend
ed during the past week by almost
every one, though there are those in
Iowa who oppose capital punishment
Louis Busse of Bremen county killed
his Wife With a club, cut her throat,
disembowcled her, though she was
about to give birth to his child,
and tried to burn her body along
with her child by a former hus-
band. Joseph G. Smith lived off the
bounty Of a coored woman at Buxton
for four years and then shot and killed
her because she had had him arrested
for annoying her with his attentions.
Smith is colored and Busse is white,
in color.
The courts decided they should hang
and they asked the governor for elem
ency and the mercy which they denied
their victims, though women The
governor considered the cases care
fully. Had there been a shadow of
doubt as to their guilt he would have
committed the sentences, but there
were confessions in both cases. The
governor issued the death warrants
because he found nothing in the cases
to justify clemency.
Under the laws of Iowa, however,
after the governor has passed on per-
sons condemned to death, they may
appeal to the legislature, whose adj
vice in such matters the governor may
receive and consider and act upon II
he wishes to do so. Therefore Buses
death was fixed for April 10 and
Smiths for April 20, so that their APP
plications to the legislature may be
heard.

Railroad Legislation.


Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Sept. 1s.-In an interview
here Senator Allison said he believes
in legislation to control the railroads.
He is confident that the senate COM
mittee will report favorably on bill
which will be accepted by the senate.
He declares the present laws more
drastic than in any other country and
that the need is more efficient enforce
ment. He heartily supports the presi-
dents policy because it is general. He
believes in no cut and dried" bill, and
thinks that the rate question will be
given precedence of all pending mat
tiers before the senate. He declares
that the public misjudged the senate
in terming it a railroad body. He
explains it's failure to take action last
spring to the desire of it's members to
give the matter most careful consider
alton.
