ier Two decisions of considerable
Importance We're announced. Joseph

of murder In the second degree III
killing Ephraim Root in Rochester.
October IL. 1903, and sentenced to
Imprisonment for life In the state
prison at Windsor, makes nothing by
his exceptions. and must serve out
his sentence. The exceptions related
wholly to the admission OF evidence
regarding a rifle given by Martel
boy and others, which the state
claimed showed that the respondent
intended To kill Root some time. IN
the case of A. =. Blanchard VS.. the
City of Barre, the contention OF GER
tain citizens of Barre that an assess
ment for granite paving was illegal,
was sustained, the court holding that
the proceedings were irregular ana
the levy was invalid. The city eoun-
ell left the decision as TO whether the
pavements were needed TO the street
commissioners and 1t is held that a
city council cannot delegate such
power to others. The city VIII be
obliged to pay the costs and start over
again.

At a dinner given at Washington
Tuesday night, May 9, by the Ameri-
can Railway association TO 800 rail-
way men, members of the interna-
tional railway congress, Secretary
Taft emphatically declared that rail-
way rate legislation must come, so
that if the railway men of the coun-
try were wise they would aid and not
hinder it: that the sentiment of the
country is such that failure of prop
er regulation meant a campaign on
the subject that would do no good to
the railroads. He was positively
against government ownership he
said. believing that nothing so dele
FERROUS could come to the country as
this solution of the question. But"
he continued. you cannot run rail-
roads as you run a private business.
You must respond to the public de-
nation, then you must allow the es-
adjustment of some tribunal that
will remedy that discrimination"
The secretary saw no reason why n
tribunal properly constituted should
not be competent in every sense Of
the word to fix maximum rate.
