JUDGE RULES FOR RAILWAYS
Holds That They Cannot Be Forced to
Serve Private Switch

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, June 19.-Judge
Kennedy of the district court handed
down a pioneer decision when he ruled
that railroads cannot be required to
serve a private switch, and that they
have the right to withdraw the service
at any time for any reason satisfactory
to themselves.
This is the disposition of the suit OF
the Mystic Milling company against
four railroads here and the Western
Car Service association, a case which
has attractive wide attention because
of testing the rights of railroads to en-
force demurrage charges. The milling
company refused to pay demurrage
bill of $26, claiming a cOuntercharge
against the railroads for delaying the
shipments. The Car Service associa-
ton refused to consider the counter
charge, saying it should go to the rail-
road direct
The milling company refused to pay
and the association instructed the rail-
roads to Withdraw service. This was
done for five days, when the milling
company secured a mandatory order.
Later the railroads were sued for $l5O,-
900, and it was in these cases Judge
Kennedy decided that the railroads do
not serve private tracks in the capac-
ity of common carriers, and therefore,
that the milling company cannot re-
cover damages.

CLAUDE HAYNES MISSING
SON OF WEALTHY WHITMAN
COUNTY FARMER LAST SEEN
IN WAlLA WALLA.
Father in the City Seeking Son-Stu
dent at State College Starts Out
to See the World.

Seeking his son, Claude Haynes, who
left his nome week ago yesterday to
see the world, D. M. Haynes, a wealthy
Walla Mr.. Haynes arrived in this
city four days ago hoping to find some
trace of his son, but up to today the
only information he had been able to
CLEAN was that the boy had registered
at the Valley House last Tuesday. He
stayed one day at the hotel and then
left without leaving any information
as to his destination.
Claude is 20 years of age and if I
do say it myself he is one of the best
boys in the world Mr.. Haynes said
this morning. He has been attend
ing the Washington Agricultural col
lege at Pullman and was getting along
fine in his studies. When out of
school ne helped me on the farm.
own 1000 acres of wheat land near
Pullman and this spring rented Claude
300 acres, furnishing him with the
necessary farming implements to do
his work. He had just finished sum-
mer following the land and llad every
prospect Of getting along in the world
MY wife and 1 visited a married
daughter near Pullman week ago
Sunday and when we returned home
We found a note from Claude stating
that he had gone to PalOuse City on
an excursion and would probably not
be back that night. We thought moth
ing of the matter, although it was the
first time he had ever stayed away
from home. The next day we got
letter from him saying that he had
decided to make his way alone in the
world and was going to Walla Walla
to see if he could not get a job in the
Hudson Bay country. He said he
never realized what a good home ne
had until he went away. He said he
was not angry and asked for our for
giveness.
Claude is a boy VINO never uses to-
bacco or liquor and is of a serious
turn of mind, preferring good substan
tial books and newspapers to trashy
reading. I do not expect to find him
hanging around saloons, but think he
has struck a job on some ranch as he
is used to farm work."
Mr. Haynes is very anxious to find
his son and take him back home with
him. Mrs. Haynes is greatly worried
over her boys strange disappearance
and is in frequent communication with
her husband to see if he has heard
anything of his whereabouts. Mr..
Haynes haunted the postoffice for sew
eral hours yesterday thinking that
perhaps his son would call for his
mail, but he failed to put in an ap-
pearance.
Young Haynes is described by his
father as a boy about five feet nine
inches in height. He weighs about 155
to 100 pounds and has dark hair. Any
information regarding his whereabouts
would be greatly appreciated by the
father.

GREAT MEETING OF W00OMEN
BIENNIAL NATIONAL CONVEN-
TIoN TO BE CONVENED TO.
MORROW AT MILWAUKEE.
Hundred Uniformed Teams Will Par
itcipate in the Big Parade-RoyaI
Neighbors Present.

MILWAUKEE, June 19.-Estimates
of the number of visitors in Milwaukee
today for the biennial national con-
vention of the Modern Woodmen of
America range from 10000 to 10000.
During the last 4S hours trains have
rolled into the city at brief intervals
each bringing it's quote of delegates to
the mead camp meeting, to the conven-
ton of Foresters, camp clerks and 9TH
ers. Practically every state and ter
ritory in the Union is represented
among the visitors.
The business section of the city pre-
sents a holiday appearance in honor of
the occasion. Public buildings, hotels
and many business houses are sWatned
in bunting with the various Woodmen
insignia as the center figures of the
decorations. Prominent street inter-
sections are spanned by magnificent
arches which blaze with hundreds of
multi -colored electric lights at night.
Though the meeting of the head
camp. which is the chief feature of the
convention, does not formally open un-
til tomorrow morning, there was much
to keep the visitors busy today. The
camp of the uniformed rank at Lake
Park was thrown open this morning.
Here are quartered scores of uniform
ed teams which are to participate in
the grand parade and prize drills and
other spectacular features of the week
The meeting of the camp clerks which
opened Saturday was continued today
and will be concluded this evening"
The Royal Neighbors Of America, the
ladies' auxiliary to the WOOdmen,
meets here during the week and hun
dreds of delegates are on hand to at
tend. The society is now in it's four
teenth year. and has a membership
running into thousands and extend
ing throughout the country.
Several important questions will
rome up for consideration and action
at the present meeting of the head
camp. The law committee will recon-
mend the admission to the society's
jurisdiction of portions of Texas, Ar
kansas and Tennessee. The recon-
rnendation will also be made to admit
ali persons to membership not directly
engaged in the manufacture or sale of
LIQUOR as a beverage. Under the by
laws of the society at present, no per-
son engaged in the manufacture or
sale of malt spirituous or vinous liq-
ors to be used as a beverage, in the
of proprietor, stockholder.
agent or servant" can become a men,
her of the society, and if he is a MEM
her and engages in the liquor traffic
IN any of these capacities, his member,
shin at once becomes void. The law
committee proposes to modify these re-
strictions so as to make them conform
in general to those imposed by most
life insurance companies. The moral
hazard is to be ignored and the purely
physical hazard recognized.

The shop is situated in narrow al

it was necessary for the jurymen to
file past a long row of "soiled doves
who f1Ocked to the doorways to see
what was going on. To the credit of
the jurors, however, it can be said
they attended strictly to the business
in hand and viewed the little barber

SUEZ CANAL LEFT IN REAR.
Value of Freight Carried THROUGH
Michigan Canal Is $334,5 900.

SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich, June
19.-The annual report of the 500 ca
nails for 1904, has just been issued
by the government While "a per cent
of the business of the lake was carried
through the American canal, the fig
ures are a combination of both the
cover the entire musiness of Lake Su-
perior to and from all American and
Canadian points. 49,
The figures for this waterway run to
vast proportions. In the first place
there was three time as much freight
carried through the canal in the eight
months of navigation in 1904 as was
taken through the Suez canal for the
full year period corresponding there
to. This freight amounted to 31.546,-
106 tons, and there were total mile
tons for ships passing the canal of
nearly 27,000,000. This is equivalent to
the statement that the average dis
tance that freight was carried was
S43& miles.
There was total value of the
freight carried through of 1894 SOB 900
and there were paid to shipowners
for moving tais amount the sum of
$21. .553, 900. This male freight charge
a ton mile of all goods carried
through the lakes. including high
priced as we'll as cheaper commO1i-
ties. of 8 mill InIded, for some low
cost freights tie charge a mile was but
$0.00040. This latter figure was for
coal, commodity carried by millions
of tons the whole length of the lakes.
Vessels OF the value of $69, 166, 444
We're engaged in the Lake Superior
traffic, in addition to the value placed
on whatever unregistered craft were
using the canal. There were $50 of
these vessels, including everything of
all classes, and their average value
was. therefore, about SS0,000 each. This
is not alone for the big freighters, that
are worth up to $500. 900 and 100000.
but the tugs and small craft that are
worth a few hundreds. The American
canal was operated 224 days of the
year and the Canadian canal 241 days.
The American canal passed "a per cent
of the commerce, but American ves-
sells handled "a per cent of the COM
merce, thought but 81 per cent of the
$500 passengers carried during the
season.
