THE FAMILY IN AMERICA.
Opinion IL Sound and RiEht-The
Question of lIypOcrisy.

America, with its evils Of divorce.
has acquired an unfortunate reputation
from the point of view of the sacred
ness of the family-a reputation, on the
whole. which it does not deserve, says
the Century A singular and dramatic
International incident of recent occur
renee illustrates the fact that an over
whelming body of public opinion sus-
tains the family institution. This Incl
dent has been described by certain ma
tiyes and foreigners rs an illustration
of national pharisaism; as having ele
ments of hypocrisy. cowardice and
cruelty. 1t may possibly have had
touches of these unlovely vices, as far
as individuals are concerned. but the
action of public opinion in such eases
will always be in danger of faint and
error or hypocrisy in details.
1t is. however. not the minor aspects
of the incident So much as the larger
that interest us, and in the larger view
there is reason for deep rejoicing in the
existence of a public opinion in Amer

RATE Law IN EFFECT
FEDERAL STATUTE BECAME OP.
ERATIVE TUESDAY.
Applies to Interstate Commerce
and Gives Shippers Right to
Know Total Charges Before
Goods are Shipped.--Schedules
Not All Completed.

New York, Aug. 2S.-The new rail-
road rate law, which applies to all
railroads doing an interstate business
W mt into effect at midnight last night.
1t will be enforced by the interstate
commerce commission.
According to the law the roads were
to have filed with the interstate COM
merce commission by midnight all
their tariffs and charges, showing not
only the full cost of transportation
from point OF point, but also what
items go to the making up of this cost.
From today there can be no eek
tras," and the shipper is expected to
be able to obtain in advance final
statement of the charge he has to meet.
Not single company has been able
to comply fully with the provisions of
the law requiring them to have all
their sche Jules filed by midnight.
The schedule of switching charges
was the most difficult of completion
and no road has been able to finish it
in time to file as the law directed.
Coal Roads Want Ruling
Under the law every company which
fails to complete its schedules may be
fined, but it is understood the inter
state commerce commission will give
additional time in every case where a
road has given evidence of sincere in
tent to comply with the law.
To discuss this and other points a
committee representing the big East
ern roads is in Washington today in
order to meet the commission.
This conference will be attended by
representatives of the anthracite coal
roads, who are anxious to obtain a rul-
ing from the commission on that Sec
ton of the law which prohibits rail
road from carrying from state to state
any article manufactured, mined or
produced by it, except for its own use.
This would include coal.
Benefit for Shippers
1t is expected that shippers will find
themselves benefited by the provision
which requires the railroads to in
clude all charges of whatsoever nature
in their quoted rates.
Heretofore a shipper has had to fig
ure for himself on icing, refrigerator
and elevator charges and the dozen or
more other incidentals, dickering with
the separate companies which had a
hand in transportation or care of his
shipment.
Now the railroad must do that and
the shipper meets but one charge and
deals with but one concern. All the
sources of side charges are consolidate
ed, and private cars, side tracks, spurs,
terminals and elevators are made sub
ject to the law.
The new law also requires the rail
roads to establish uniform system of
accounting and to keep their books
open for inspection at all times by the
expert accountants of the commission.
This feature is expected to go far to-
ward abolishing the rebate evil of the
past.

RECORD OF COURTS

A writ of habeas corpus was argued yes terday before Judge Dan Greene of the criminal court, in the matter of George Wade held in the county jail on charges of robbing B. McCrosson and J. G. Hud- son, in Kress' store, Friday, December 22 last. After the matter had been thresh- ed by the examination of witnesses and argument by attorneys, Judge Ferguson returned Wade to the county jail, re- fusing to grant the writ applied for by his attorneys, Davis and Gibson. It was announced later in the day that the grand jury had returned true bill against Wade in one of the cases. Wade was arrested by Detectives Patton and Murphy the night the alleged robbery occurred.
 Owing to the great amount of business on the docket of the criminal court and because of the length of time consumed in some of the cases, Judge Weaver yes- terday announced that beginning today court will convene at o'clock a. m It is the intention of Judge Weaver to have the court catch up in the cases now be- fore 1t, and to start handling capital cases next week without being behind in the work.
 Nearly the entire day was consumed yesterday in hearing testimony in the two cases of forgery in the second degree against John William Lytle. It was al- legged that 1ytle presented his brothers bank book to the Peoples Savings bank and drew a sum of money on It. The verdict in each case was guilty as charged
 John Lanyau was tried on charge of violating the Sunday law, and was found guilty.

 It was also shown that the operation of the farm of 100 acres had been very profit able. Plenty of feed for all the stock was raised and much of the food for the boys Every boy in the school is forced to learn something of farming A foundry has also been added to the equipment, so that the time of the boys out of school work is taken up by the foundry, the laundry, the farm, the shoe shop and the printing shop, learning useful trades
 Money Needed.
 The ladies h we taken up with the eov ernor the qunstion of financial support and hope to nave sentiment built up that will lead the next session of the Legislature to provide literally for the only institution in the state which takes boys who have gone wrong and tries to win them back to rectitude and honor It has now from the state $90O0 a year. That does not keep 1t up. Last year the entire income was about $12,OOO. which IS not enough, though excellent work Is being done with that amount. It costs about $100 a year a boy. and this does not now leave anything for increased equipment and new buildings
 It is hoped that outside the state help there will be more generous response from the counties to the work. Last year the following counties contributed: Autauga, Dale, Pike, Colbert, Lawrence. Madison, Houston, Jefferson. However. Jefferson and Birmingham contributes liberally all the time, and has eyer since the institution was set up. It also hoped that the clubs and benevolent or ganizations will come to the help of the work and get it all the money that is needed to meet the demands upon it in the interest of young boys who have no other way to get out of the paths of sin and back into right living in many cases.
 A recent help to the school was leg acy of 5000 by the will of the late pr. Joseph R. Smith of Birmingham.
 Work of Women.
 The school was established in 1899, the charter having been given in 1898 by the legislature. It Is monument to the good work of the women of the state, lead by those who are mentioned above and some others who were not here or have not been put to service other than in the ranks of the workers
 When seen after the meeting Mrs. Craighead said We are very much grat- flied at the progress made during the past year We have been told of boys who have gone out from the school and entered into useful calling I have the names of one at Selma, one at Birming- ham, three or four in Mobile, and others fin other parts of the state The per cent of reformations is large enough to make us quite sure that the work is do- ing great good to the very part of our population that needs itn
