TEN HOUR Law KILLED
CANNOT LIMIT BAKERS TIME.
Decision of United States Supreme
Court-Nothins in Character of
the Work to Warrant
Restriction.

Washington, April 1S.-In an opinion
by Justice Peckham the Supreme
Court of the United States held to be
unconstitutional the New York state
law making ten hours days work and
sixty hours a weeks work in bakeries
in that state.
Justices Harlan, White, Day and
Holmes dissented, and Justice Harlan
declared that not more important de
cision had been rendered in the last
century.
The opinion was handed down in the
case of Lockner VS.. the State of New
York, and was based on the ground
that the law interferes with the free
exercise of the rights of contract be-
tween individuals.
The Court of Appeals of the state up.
held the law and affirmed the judg-
ment of the trial court, holding Lock.
ner guilty. Judge Parker wrote the
opinion of the New York Court of Ap.
peals supporting the law, and the court
divided four to three on the question
of validity.
The law involved In the case is sec
tion 110 of the New York state labor
law, prescribing the hours Of labor in
bakeries in the state. Lockner is a
baker in the city of Utica, and was
found guilty of permitting an employe
to work in his bakery more than sixty
hours in week and fined $50. The
judgment was affirmed by the New
York appellate court.
Yesterdays opinion dealt entirely
with the constitutional question in
volved. Justice Peckham said that the
law is not an act merely fixing the
number of hours which shall constitute
legal days work, but an absolute
prohibition on the employer permitting
under any circumstances more than ten
hours work to be done in his establish.
ment.
The justice referred to the excep-
tions coming under the head of the po.
lice powers of the state and, after con
sidering that point at length, concluded
that the present case did not fall
within the police powers.
He quoted statistics to show that the
trade of baker is not an especially
unhealthy one, and said men could not
be prevented from earning a living for
their families. He concluded:
ut seems to us that the real object
and purpose was simply to regulate the
hours of labor between the master and
his employees, all being men sui juris.
in a private business not dangerous in
any degree to morals, or in any real
and substantial degree to the health Of
the employe. Under such circum-
stances the freedom of master and en-.
ploye to contract with each other in re
lation to their emuloymenr and in de.
tining the same cannot be prohibited or
interefed with without violating the
federal constitution"

Second Bear Killed.

Denver, April 1S.-The Denver
News claims to have a scoop" on
news from the presidential party in
northwestern Colorado, giving detailed
accounts of its doings, while the other
morning paper stoutly asserts that no
authentic report has been received.
The News this morning prints the fol-
lowing by Roy O'Connor:
Camp Roosevelt, via Messenger to
New Castle, April 17.-Great is the re-
joicing at Camp Roosevelt. Like iubi-
liant schoolboys glorying in track or
field victory, the dignified President of
the United States, the sedate DR.. A.
Lambert, one of the famous physicians
of New York, and suave and almost
portly Phil Stewart of Colorado
Springs, the college chum of the Pres.
ident, are clapping each other on the
back and joyously congratulating the
guides on the luck that has been theirs.
For an unparalleled fete has been ac-
complished. In two days of hunting
two monster black bears have been
slain. The second trophy to the re-
lentless dogs and the unerring rife of
the President was secured to-day. The
first one, as told exclusively in the
News, was killed Saturday, even before
the President had reached camp.

GASOLINE MOTOR CARS.
Success May Revolutionize Suburban
Traffic.

Omaha, Apfil 1S.-Railway officials
who on Sunday made a 200-mile trip in
the Union Pacific gasoline motor car
which was placed in commission by
that road yesterday, expressed the
opinion that the success of the car will
result in a revolution of suburban and
branch line railroad passenger and
freight service.
Sundays test of the Union Pacific
car was the final one before placing
it in practical service between Grand
Island and St. Paul. Nebraska, where
it will make two trips daily as branch
train.
The car, which was built purely in
an experimental way, seats twenty per
sons, and in the forward end, where is
located the gasoline motor. is a space
reserved for baggage. The regular
service cars, construction of several OF
which will begin at once, will be fifty
feet long, will seat fifty-ive passengers
and accommodate their luggage.
The cars VIII have motor of suffi-
cient horse power to haul one or two
trailers when it is found necessary to
use extra equipment.
officials OF several of the large rail
road systems of the country already
witch will be exploited at the coming
railroad congress at Washington
Probably the greatest feature is the
small expense of operation. This, it is
believed. will be about one-sixth the
cost of operating regular passenger
trains. The idea of railroad motor
car service was conceived by Vic.
President Mohler of the Union Pacific
and the development of the car has
been under the supervision of Super
intendent of Motive Power McKeen OF
that road.
An official Of the road to-day said the
motor car would place railroads in fair
competition with electric suburban
lines and give small branch towns
service equal to that of the main lines.
Several of the cars will be placed in
service on the Pacific coast as soon as
they can be built.

LeadvilIe smelter Strike.

Leadville, Colo, April 19.-Armed
deputies in charge of Sheriff OMaho-
ney last night succeeded in maintain
ing quiet at the Arkansas Valley plant
OF the American Smelling and Refining
Company here, where forty weighers
and wheelers went on strik yester-
day for shorter hours and succeeded
in keeping nearly 800 employees from
working. The fires Of six of the eight
furnaces have been drawn and tn
other two are banked. The mines in
the district have been ordered to cease
shipping to the smelter until further
notice. No disorder is looked for and
settlement is expected within a few
days.
The wheelers struck when the smelt-
er management put into effect the re-
cent eight-hour law which does not
include them. They demanded the
same hours as the other workmen.
which was refused by the manage
ment.

RAILROAD MAN TALKS
EXPLAINING FREIGHT RATES.
Santa Fe Agent Before Interstate Com.
merce Communicable Rebate to
Colorado Fuel and Iron Co.

Washington, April 20-Victor Mora
wetz of the Atchison, Topeka and San
ia Fe railroad told the Senate commit
tee on interstate commerce today that
the executive committees and boarda
of directors never know anything about
the details of traffic management. They
give directions to the president of the
road, and the president directs the
other officers.
In reply to a question by Senator
Dolliver. Mr.. Morawetz explained the
charges regarding the granting of re-
bates by the Santa Fe to the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Company. He said that
the alleged rebate grew out of confu-
sion Of the cost of transportation and
the cost of coal. The Santa Fe filed
with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission a rate of $4O5 from the mine
to the point Of intersection with a road
which was controlled by Phelps, Dodge
& Co.. the coal consignee. AS a mat
ter Of fact, he said, the rate was 81. 80
per ton and the difference. $1.15 per
ton, was paid to the Colorado Fuel
and Iron Company for the coal. The
road collected the price of the coal
and the cost Of transportation at the
point of delivery
1t was alleged that the payment OF
$1.15 to the Colorado company was
rebate when, as matter of fact, he
said. no rebate was paid. No interest.
he stated, suffered by the act of the
company and nobody connected with
the Santa Fe system had any interest
in the Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany.
No other shipper could be affected,
because Phelps. Dodge & Co. had to
have the coal which was supplied by
the Colorado company. The whole
case arose over confusion Of the cost
of coal with the cost of transportation

Will Close Land Offices.

Washington, April 20.-Commission-
er Richards of the general land office
will be Obliged under the law to dis
continue several land offices in Colo
rado at the commencement Of the COM
ing fiscal year, on account of lack of
business transacted by them.
1t is provided by the statute that
whenever the quantity of public land
remaining in any land district is re-
duced to less than 100000 acres, or
whenever the cost of collecting reye-
nue. from sales of public lands in a dis
trict Is one-third of the whole amount
OF revenue, it may be lawful to discon-
tinue such land district and annex 1t to
an adjoining district.
Five land districts in Colorado come
within these restrictions. They are:
Hugo. where the receipts for the last
nine months were $4,S76, and the ex-
penses $3,249.
Lamar, receipts s3,O25, expenses ST.
S12.
Leadville. receipts 1854, expenses
s2,SO9
Akron, receipts $4,000, expenses s2,-
$50. .
Del Norte, receipts $6,5S2, expenses
s2,403.
Commissioner Richards has written
letters to the registers and receivers
of these offices calling for a report as
to what portion of their districts the
existing business comes from and
whether they see any prospects for an
increase. He also asks that these Off
cials recommend in the event the dis
trict should be attached to some other
district. with what district the combin-
alton should be made.

LoW-PRIcED POTATOES.
No Profit on Large Shipments From
GrecIey,

Denver, April 20.-A Republican spe-
cial from Greeley says: Potatoes have
moved more freely the last ten days
than at any time during the last six
months. The market price is Is cents
per hundred for Pearls and 20 cents
per hundred for Rurals.
Forty carloads is the daily output
from the Greeley district They go as
far west as Seattle, to Texas on the
south and east to Kansas, Missouri and
Oklahoma
At least 1000 carloads remain in the
district. Farmers are slicing the po-
tatoes and feeding to cattle and sheep.
A. w. Bronnell, who is fattening 1000
sheep for market, claims they are sl-
perior to beet pulp for fattening food.
The starch factory uses 500 sacks of
potatoes day.
The seed which will be planted for
renewal comes from the Divide district.
but two-thirds of the seed planted will
be of last years crop from this sec
ton.
The market price of Is cents a sack
is barely paying the farmer for the last
sorting, sacking and hauling. This
year he must count the cost of seed
and of labor in production total lost.
1t is said that on every carload shipped
out the producer loses $50 this year
Farmers could dump their stored po-
tatoes on their fields for fertilizing pur-
poses were it not that the weather is
now too warm for potatoes to freeze,
which they must do before they rot
sufficiently to make a good fertilizer.
The acreage planted to potatoes the
coming season will be cut down twen-
ty-tive per cent. from what it has been
in the last twenty-five years. The area
will be planted to sugar beets.

Holly SUGAR Factory.

Denver, April IA Holly, Colora-
do. special to the Republican last night
says: Construction work on the Holly
sugar factory is progressing rapidly.
The excavation for the main building
has been completed. and the fouRda-
tions for the sugar warehouse, ma
chine shop and boiler house are well
under way. The railroad has built a
track to the factory and material and
supplies are being rapidly received
and put in place. Over 100 men are at
work.
All orders for machinery have been
placed and deliveries of same will
commence at once and continue until
all machinery is received. The time
OF delivery of this machinery has
been figured so as to fit in with the
ing sugar factory the machinery Is
set up first and the building is erected
around it.
weeks between 300 and 500 men will
be employed on this work, which EN-
ployment will continue uutil the com.
pletion of the plant. The plant will
be finished in time to slice the 1906
crop.
The farmers are receiving their beet
seed and are beginning to plant. The
condition of the soil could not be bet.
ter for agricultural purposes, recent
rains having put the fields in splendid
shape as regards moisture for all
crops.
Kansas will raise some 1900 acres
of beets for the Holly factory this
year with a promise of more than
doubling the acreage for next year.

New Mississippi Bridge.

st. Louis, April 1.-THE new steel
bridge constructed by the st. Louis
Southwestern railroad over the Missis-
sippi river at Thebes, Illinois, will be
opened to traffic tomorrow. The
bridge was erected at cost of $780,
900 and three years of labor. 1t is a
double-track, high-level structure, the
plan involving what is known as the
fixed, through and cantilever spans.
There are five spans. The bridge is 23l
feet high and 3,SO7 feet in length.
The opening of this bridge to traffic
will cause the ferry boat to be aban-
doned and result in shortening the Cot
ton Belts schedule time.
