Judge Troup Friday rendered a decision
in the case of the Illinois Central against
the city and county treasurers, in which
he held that the tangible property of the
plaintiff Is subject to taxation in this state.
The railroad contended that inasmuch as
it has no tracks in this state, and used
the lines of the Omaha Bridge and Terminal
company exclusively and enters the state
only by virtue of other peoples lines and
is engaged exclusively in interstate COM
merce, the state has no right to tax it on

Judge Troup holds that, while the state
cannot tax it's interstate commerce BUSH
ness or its privileges, the state has a
right to tax It's physical property in use
in the state This includes the rolling
stock and all other forms of tangible prop

the necessity for this appropriation he
stated that the situation in China was

be wise to have troops near to be used

Before Committee of House.
SAYS INSURANCE is NATIONAL IN SCOPE
baltimore Lawyer Takes OppOsing
View, saying that Congress Has
No Power TO Regulate In.
surance Companies.
CFrom a stan Correspondent

.WAshlNGTON, Feb. Especial Tele-
gram. D-Ralph w. Breckenridge Of Omaha
appeared before the Judiciary committee
OF the house today in support of the propo-
sitiun that congress has power to regulate
insurance. There was an exceedingly large
attendance Of members present and the
room Of the committee was crowded during
the course of the hearing, both members
and Spectators evincing a keen interest in
the subject. In the course of his presenta-
ton, which covered almost an hour In
length. Mr.. Breckenridge said the American
people had come to distrust state super
vision OF Insurance and that companies ex-
pect from state insurance departments only
demands for money. He said there was a
demand for something that would forestall
improvident and improper investments and
extravagant management; that would
punish fraud and reduce the cost of insur-
ance by Immediately cutting off useless ex-
penditures.
The Bar association, by a vote of 113 to
q. sent to Its insurance committee for
consideration a resolution declaring federal
control Of insurance Illegal and unconsti-
tutional under the decisions of the SUI
preme court of the United States.
George Nhitlock OF Baltimore was the
author of that resolution and presented that
view today
Mr. Breckenridge presented statistics to
show that the insurance business was
national and not local in character. or
twenty OF the largest insurance companies,
he said, but 10 per cent of their business
was done in the states wherein they were
chartered.
Mr.. Whitlock contended that the Ameri-
can Bar association had not committed It,
self on the question and that II the SUI
preue court had ever established any doc
trine 1t was that insurance was not COM
merce. Three chief justices and twenty
associate. justices had all gone on record
to that. effect.
