Madison. Oct. 5.


The ready cash Of the state is run
ing SO low that it has been found
Necessary to draw upon the state de-
,osiJories and the probability is that
additional extensive drafts will have
O be made upon these depository
banks to meet the running eXpend1-
lures of the state government. The
sources of revenue to the stae are NOT
rich at this time of the year, but the
expenses are not materially different
or lower at this season than at any
other time. The various state in
stitutions have to be maintained ami
the salaries of people in the en-
plOy of the state are practically the
same for one month as for another.
While the cash on hand in the treas
ury office in the capitol is running
low, the situation presents no e1e-
ments of alarm, as there is large
balance in the general fund, but it is
preferred whenever practicable to al
low the deposited money to remain in
the banks. where it earns interest
for the state.
The balances in the largest and most
important state funds for the first of
the present month were as follows.

LATEs NEW RATE STATUTE.
IMPORTANT RULING MADE
Letter From Attorney Generals De-
partment to Secretary of Superior
Commercial Club by A. C. Titus
Contains Advanced Views-Coming
Flat Reduction Suggested.
Madison, Oct. 5

Madison, Oct. 5.
That it is unlawful for the railroads
to give transportation free OF charge
to individuals, although the individ-
uals may be secretaries of CONNER
cial clubs or similar organizations, is
the substance of an opinion contained
in an unofficial letter sent yesterday
by Assistant Attorney General A. G.
Titus to G. A. Russell, secretary OF
the Superior Commercial club. Mr..
Titus makes what may be an initial
ruling of the attorney generals de-
partment upon the right OF railroad
companies to issue free transportation
to individuals other than public Off
GERS, railway employees or others with
in section Of chapter 1862 OF the laws
of 1905, the railroad rate commission
law. He holds that the issuance OF
such transportation by railroad COM
panies is preferential and unlawful.
The letter states that it would not be
a violation on the part OF the secretary
of the commercial club to receive such
transportation, as he is not in any
sense a public official and does not,
therefore come within the provision or
the anti-pass law. But Mr. Titus
holds that with the railroads it is diff
ferent, as they are the great public
highways of the state, and although
constructed largely by private capital,
they are quasi-public corporations over
which the state properly assumes con-
troll, manifested in the rate commission
act of 1908.
To Prevent Determinations.
This control is exercised, or at
tempted to be-" says the letter, for
the benefit of all the people OF the
state. Its principle objects are to Sc
cure reasonable rates in freight and
passenger traffic, and to prevent re-
bates an determinations and prefer
ences between shippers and indiv1d-
uals''
"You do not come within any OF the
excepted cases or conditions, class OF
classes of persons to whom special
privileges may be granted, hence this
department is compelled to hold and
does hold that it would be unlawful
for railroad companies to issue free
transportation to you. Issuance Of
free transportation in your case would
certainly be a preference in your
favor and a discrimination against
oters equally entitled thereto it it be
refused them. No doubt almost any
person may present reasons why some
preference in rates should be extended
to him, but as there is now a state
statute regulating the issuance of such
transportation, this department will
be constrained to hold that it may only
be issued to such persons or classes
of persons as are specially mentioned
in the act"
