SPOONER
Advises Senate on Rate Bill
Against Bailey's Court
1 Amendment

Washington, April 27.-Mr. Spooner
(Wis.) addressed the senate during
the day on railroad rate regulation. In,
beginning he announced his purpose Of
devoting himself largely to Mr..
Bailey's amendment prohibiting in.
ferior courts from restraining the or
ders of the interstate commerce COM
mission.
''The question is very grave one,"
he said IF adopted IT would almost
destroy the rate fixing provision OF
this bill" He went on to say that the
proposition was the most important
question that had been presented to
the senate in recent years-far greater
than even the rate fixing question it.
self. He quoted Mr.. Bailey's declara-
ton that, the power to create involves
the power to destroy and said that
when applied to the courts this axiom
was full of danger. He denied that
except in limited degree congress had
power to destroy the courts. He con-
coded that jurisdiction may be con-
ferred and withdrawn, but contended
that such power may not be extended
to the judicial power of court in
given case.
He then entered upon an effort to
draw the line Of distinction between
jurisdiction and judicial power and
said that Mr.. Bailey's necessities must
have been responsible for his sneers at
this distinction. The difference, he
declared, had been understood by the
trainers of the Constitution and by the
text writer's since Blackstone and had
been outlined by many court decisions.
F. ITO me it is plainly written in the
Constitution and no sophistry can con-
fuse it, he said.
judicial power is an indivisible
thing; while jurisdiction may be dis
tributed,"' he went on, contending that
In the Constitution the word ''jurisdic-
ton" had been used SO as to make it
apply to the beginning of suits, while
the words s'judicial power had been
used as applicable to the power of the
court over a case once instituted.

Prosecution Rests Its Case Agains
Minister.

Batavia, N. Y, April 27-The prose
cution has rested it's case in the trial
of Rev. Algernon S. Crapsey, rector OF
st. Andrews church at Rochester, N
Y, on the charge of heresy and viola
ton Of his ordination VOWS. Before
doing SO John Lord O'Brian, counsel
for the prosecution, filed with the
court for record a letter to Mr.. Alexan-
der, Dr.. Crapsey's assistant, from DR..
Crapsey, dated Jan. 5, 1906. He then
submitted as evidence the collect, epis.
tie, creed and gospel for St. Mark
day, as contained in the Book of Com
mon Prayer. Congressman Perkins,
counsel for the defense, admitted as
evidence that DR.. Crapsey had taken
all his ordination vows.
Briefly, the case Of the prosecution
consists of the original presentment
against DR.. Crapsey; the evidence
given by Mr.. Alexander; the book of
DIR. Crapsey's sermons, entitled RE
Hgion and Politics. the Book Of Com
mon Prayer, particularly those por-
tons to which the prosecution drew
especial attention; the canons of the
church and other such documents,

Decline in Stock Prices Caused by-
Forced Selling.

New York, April 27.-There was
acute pressure of liquidation in the
stock market at the outset The sell
ing was the general outcome Of the
conditions caused by the San Fran
cisco disaster and the losses growing
out of it and direct liquidation was
traceable to the account of the fire
insurance companies, which are driven
to provide means for meeting the
heavy losses. The sharp decline in
prices of the last few days has had
the result of reducing margins, in
some cases wiping them out The
forced character Of the selling was
easily perceptible and the bears helped
the decline and took advantage of
the necessities of those who were

REHEARlNG
Chicago Traction Companies
Ask Supreme Court for
Another Showing

Washington, April PA petition
for rehearing in the Chicago traction
cases was filed during the day in the
supreme court of the United States in
behalf of the street car companies.
/ Eleven reasons are given for seeking
an opportunity to again present the
case. The first reason given is that
the courts construction Of the words
"continued in force during the life
hereof in the second section of the
act of the Illinois legislature Of 1865
is contrary to the Interpretation given
to that act for forty years by the city
of Chicago. It is contended that the
court in arriving at it's construction of
the act has 'overlooked the grammat-
ical impossibility of assigning different
subjects to the verbs deemed and
held and continued said verbs being
coordinate in position in the sentence
and each qualified by the adverbal
phrases in force and during the life
hereof"
Another criticism of the courts &C.
tion is based on the statement that
in constructing the act in question
"the court has enormously assumed
that the power of the common council
to establish time limitations of street
occupancy involves not merely the
power to limit the duration of its own
contracts, but also the power to ex-
clude the exercise by the general as
sembly of Illinois of the plenary att
thOrity conferred upon it by the con.
stitution of the state"
