tors. It was sworn to upon April IL before
a notary public. The other report giving
the condition Of the bank June Ii, 1906, was
signed and sworn to on June %. Examiner
Cunningham alleges that false entries of
overdrafts were made, notes and bills re-
discounted reported at $4,000 when they
amounted to $500, 900, and Sis, 30 charged
as coming from approved agents when in
fact only 10000 was due.

STATh'SRIGHTINVADED
QUARANTINE ORDER DECLARED
TO BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

In deciding the cases of the Illinois
Central Railroad Company VS.. T. G.. Ed
wards and J. u. McKendree of Kentucky
the Supreme Court of the United States
today held to be unconstitutional the
Agricultural Departments quarantine order
because the line fixed by it was made ap-
plfcable to the state as well as the in
terstate movement OF Cattle The courts
opinion was announced by Justice Day and
reversed the finding of the circuit court
of Carlisle county. KY, from which the
case was appealed
The case grew out of a claim for dam
ages made by Edwards and Mckendree
against the railroad company. on account
of the contraction Of Texas fever by cat
tie owned by them through contact with
cattle brought into Carlisle county by
the railroad company. The suit was in
stituted under the act OF Congress of 1903
authorizing a national quarantine to pre-
vent the spread OF infectious disease
among live stock.
The Carlisle court awarded damages.
and the railroad company appealed the
case, claiming the law to be unconstirr-
tonal in that Ii delegated too much power
to the Secretary of Agriculture In allow
ing him to fix lines. The case was origi-
nally. during the last term, submitted TO
the court on printed briefs. and did not
at first appear to be anything more than
an effort to secure small damages but
when the court discovered the attack upon
the constitutionality of national statute
1t ordered rehearing With an oral argu-
ment, and called the attention of the At
torney General to the matter.
The result was decision distinctly hold
ing to be Invalid the act of the Secretary
because OF its interference with state com
merce. The findings applied only to the
one feature, but the court held that the
order could not be divided and, therefore
decided the entire act to be unconstftu-
tional. The effect was to compel a re-
versal of the verdict of the court below In
the cases at bar Notwithstanding they were
based on interstate shipments.
