STATE GAN REVOKE
ALL INSURANCE
PERMITS
Is Upheld by U. S. Supreme
Court in Case of the Trav-
elers Life Co.

Associated Press to The Evening Times.
Washington, May 14.-Justice Peck
ham today delivered the opinion of
the supreme court of the United States
in the case of the Travellers Life In
surance company vs. the insurance
commissioner of the state of Ken
tucky in favor of the state. The case
involved the constitutionality of the
state law authorizing the revocation
of permits given to foreign Insurance
companies to do business in the state,
when such companies remove to the
federal courts cases brought against
them in state courts The court held
that such law covers the right which
the state may properly exercise. JUS
tice Peckham said that state may
refuse to permit an outside company
to do any business whatever within
its borders. He therefore held. that
the state law is not in conflict with
the federal constitution. Justice Day
read the dissenting opinion in which
Justice Harlan concurred.

SUCCESSFUL TOUR ENDS
WITH BIG MEETING AT
POMONA IN THE EVENING

Mr. Bells only formal speech Of the
day was delivered at Pomona last night
and 1t was listened to by an audience
which more than filled the opera house.
Pomona is the hotbed of antagonism
to the Southern Pacific, by reason
of the fact that it has become neces-
Sary for the city in years past to fight
the railroad almost continuously in
order to protect the city'S rights from.
encroachment by the railroad and also
because the fruit growers and shippers
generally for years were at the abso-
lutte mercy of the Southern Pacific.
AS a result Mr.. Bells reception was
hearty in the extreme, and his denun-
citation of tie Southern Pacific for it's
usurpation of the powers of the ex-
ecutive, judiciary and Legislature was
cheered time and again.
Another cause for the successful
meeting is the fact that Pomona is the
home of Robert G. Loucks, the NOM
inee for congress from the Seventh dis
trict. Mr.. Loucks Is the city attorney
of Pomona, and in his official capacity
he has successfully defended Pomona
in suits brought against the Southern
Pacific.
The Audience with Bell
Mr. Bell had the audience with him
from the start. He devoted the greater
portion of his speech to showing that
the Southern Pacific was in full control
of the machinery of the Republican,
party In California and had usurped
all the functions of the state govern
ment.
He said that leading Republicans, in
cluding former Governor Gage. adj
mitted that the Santa Cruz convention
was controlled by the Southern Pacific
bosses and that Mr.. Gillett virtually
was nominated by Mr.. Hartman at a
banquet last winter.
He declared that fully ninety per
cent. of the delegates to the Santa
Cruz convention travelled ON passes.
and, as one delegate from Orange
county declared, were fed and watered
during the trip as the railroad cared
for its four-footed cattle. Continuing,
he said:
"The Southern Pacific heretofore has
been content to remain behind the
scenes and pull the wires of the party
organization, but at the Santa Cruz
convention 1t threw discretion and de-
cency to the winds and proceeded to
lash men into line behind its pro-
gram wherever they could not be per-
suaded to sell their birthright for a
mess of pottage. Originally built with
the subsidies of the people, and after
fornia for nearly forty years, the
Southern Pacific is placing itself
squarely In the gateways of the state
and denying to other railroads the right
to enter here, aud insolently demands
that the peoplesgo to the polls and
vote to lock the doors of California
against competitive lines and hand the
keys to the Hartman system"
Mr.. Bell closed with a declaration
that he did not wish TO DESTROY the
railroads, but that IL elected he would
see that they did not usurp the rights
belonging to the state, and the state
ment was heartily applauded.
Loucks Is Well Received
Mr.. Loucks was given a warm well

confined his discussion principally to
the San Pedro harbor issue. Among

pie.
The trip then continued to Pomona,
and after the autos had been driven up
and down the principal business streets
Mr.. Bell was conducted to the Palo-
mares hotel, where he dined and rested
until the evening meeting.
