MR.. MOODy's OPINION.
Attorney General Thinks There is Nc
Constitutional Obstacle to Rail-
road Regulation.

Washington, May 9.-Attorney Gen
nral Moody's opinion on tie subject OF
the power ofacongress to regulate rail
road rates has been made public. His
conclusions follow:
1. There is a governmental power to fix
the maximum future charges of carriers
by railroad. vested in the legislatures OF
the states with regard to transportation
exclusively within the states. and vested
in congress with regard 10 all other trans
portation.
.. Although legislative power, property
speaking, cannot be delegated. the law
making body having enacted into the law
the standard of charges which shall con-
troll, may intrust to an administrative
body not exercising in the true sense Ju-
licial power the duty TO fix rates in con-
formity with that standard.
3. The ~rate-makins power is not a judi
rial function and cannot'b be conferred con-
stitutionally upon the courts of the United
States, either by way Of original or appel
late jurisdiction.
4. The courts, however, have the power
to investigate any rate or rates. fixed ~
Legislative authority and to determine
whether they are such as would be confis-
catory of tho property of the carrier. and
IL they arc judicially found 10 be contlsca-
tory in their effect, TO restrain their en-
forcement.
5. Any law which attempts TO deprive
the courts OF this power is unconstitu-
tional.
6. Any regulation Of land transportation,
however exercised, YOU seem to he so
indirect in its effect upon the ports that it
could not constitute q preference between
the ports Of different states within the
meaning Of article i, section 8, paragraph
S of the constitution.
I. Reasonable, just and impartial rates
determined by legislative authority are
not within the prohibition of article !,
section 9, paragraph G of the constitution,
even though they result in a varying
charge per ton per mile to and from the
ports of different states.

abroad in one of the smartest French
hotels, living there with her father, and

I am quite sure that Miss Grant dances

That evening, after the children had
gone to bed, Lady Northampton
went up to the schoolroom, and found
the governess sitting by an open win
dow, with her glasses off.
Instantly the loo opened she sprang

AS for the dress. she would wear her

thc children could not help seeing that
she was excited about something, though
they had no inkling that their mother had

Happily it is not often tina titled
women find themselves in such straits
as did Lady Marion Grant on the
death Of her father. She was barely
10, and the earl had left her penniless,
having lost his whole fortune gambling
at Monte Carlo.
He had quarreled with every membe
of his family; he had changed his
name, and, III selfish anger, had refused
to tell even his only child what his
true name was.
That he was a peer he admitted, that
she was entitled TO the prefix of
Lady he allowed, but she knew that
Grant was not her real name. did
her father leave any papers that en-
heightened her on the subject Of her
birthright.
There she was, a girl with few kind
friends. who knew her as Miss Grant.
and We're ready to give her a home
till after she had recovered from the
first shock of her grief; but then she
must so out into the world and find
for herself.
One thing at least her father had
done for his motherless child: he had
given her an excellent education. She
could speak four languages, sing, play
both the piano and violin, and was,
besides, thoroughly we'll read.
