TO BIND THEIR ACTION.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, Aug. 5.-The plan of execu-
tive officers of western railroads to stop
the decentralization in rates due to the
giving of passes or reduced rates to
shippers, and to persons controlling
party or convention passenger business,
has been thwarted by the refusal Of
several roads to become parties to an
agreement.
In accordance with the instructions of
their executive officers, the passenger
officials of nearly all the western rail-
roads met yesterday at the headquarters
Of the Western Passenger association.
Among the roads not represented were
the Milwaukee and the st. Louis.
WIN a resolution was offered to stop
violating the interstate commerce law
by giving passes and reduced rates in
order to secure traffic, all the roads rep
resented voted for it except the North
Western and the Great Western. The
North Western withheld its vote pend
ing action by the Milwaukee. The
Great Western said it thought the pro-
posed arrangement should have the sup.
port Of all the roads, and could not be
successfully carried out otherwise.
The other lines agreed to stop giving
passes and reduced rates to secure traf
fc, regardless of the action of theil
competitors, and also to file at once with
the chairman of the Western Passenger
association copies Of contracts already
made, binding them to give certain
concessions to parties controlling party
or convention business.

Old Hymns Missing.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, Aug. 5.-Rudyard Kipling
has been given official recognition as
hymn writer by the Methodist Epis-
copal church. His Recessional'' is
one of number of recent-day poems
I which have been placed in the new
church hymnal, which has Just been
issued. From now on its well-knowp
words, "Lord, God of hosts, be with
us yet, lest we forget, lest we forget, -
will be chanted in the Methodist
churches of the country north and south
at regular service.
Kipling is not the only living writer
who has been honored by the commits
sioners who have prepared the new
hymnal. Richard Watson Glider, editor
of the Century Magazine, is also given
recognition. One Of his poems, 10
Thee, Eternal Soul, Be Praise, - has
been placed in the book issued by the
revision commission Other less widely
known poets have had their poems Of
fcialIy declared "hymns.'
The recognition of the modern, poets
by the inclusion of their poems IN the
hymnal has necessitated the leaving out
of over four hundred old hymns. The
old hymnal contained LILY hymns, be.
sides occasional pieces, doXologles and
chants. The present one contains but
TT. The number of old hymns left out
exceeds the difference between the two
numbers by more than one hundred, as

could not be duplicated anywhere as a

The falls will be Illuminated by a
series of colored lights underneath the
falls, the reflection of the light being
strong enough to light up well down the
glen. If Aladdin could see it he would
consider his ideals as very truth. Those
who have seen it state that the mag
nifcent effect of the cascades at the ST.

in beauty and attractiveness. A free

and evening by the A. o. U. w. band.

MILEAGE LAW VOID
Attorney General Finds the Act of Nc
Effect.

Attorney General E. T. Young holds
that the new transferable mileage law
is void. The law provides that mileage
tickets shall be transferable, except
the interchangeable mileage. AS all
the tickets in use are of that nature,
the law has no effect. Mr.. Young says:
This act was evidently intended to APP
ply only to mileage tickets, as distin-
guished from tickets good between desig-
mated stations. The phrase, except in
Interchangeable mileage now in use''
should, in my opinion, be read except in
Interchangeable mileage of the form now in
use." The language referred to must
have been intended to mean something.
1t cannot be contended that it was in
tended to protect the mileage books then
in the hands Of purchasers and either
wholly or partially unused, because it
must be assumed that the legislature
knew that such tickets could not be in
validated by law passed subsequent to
their sale.
In my opinion the law must be held to
apply only to mileage books or tickets is
sued subsequent to July /, 1905, which
are not interchangeable in their char
acter.
