The outlook for early passage Of the
bill giving the Government right 10 ap-
peal, on law questions, from decisions OF
minor courts in criminal cases Is very
much improved. Senator SpOOner has
given the President personal assurance
that he viii not hold up or oppose the
measure. It was reported some time
ago that the Wisconsin man would
stand In the way Of passage Of the bill.
1t develops, however. that trouble has
broken out in a new spot Organized
labor is fearful that the bill. has a joker
In it. with a barb that win get under
the CutiCle Of labor in times Of strikes
Unless these misgivings of labor are
entirely dissipated the organizations
viii refuse their support Of the bill, and
their opposition could easily be made
an excuse tor statesmen TO oppose it
who are willing 70 seek such preteNt.
Has White House Backing.
President Roosevelt and Mr.. Moody
when he was Attorney General, re-
garded this measure as Of utmost I'm
portauce. From the time of the Gov
ernment's defeat in the Beef trust case
Il was realized that there was need of
such an appeal provision, and 1t was
laid before Congress last session. with
the strongest White House backing 1T
was reported by the Senate Judiciary
Committee in the last days Of last ses-
sion.
At the very opening OF the present
session, however. 1t was sent back tOI
it was said. because Sen
ator Spooner wanted to learn more
about 1t. Immediately there arose re-
ports that il was either TO be smoth-
cred or else held back until after Judge
Landis, at Chicago. should rule on the
Standard OPs demurrer to the rebate
indictments against IT, II such a ruling
should be made, and should be favorable

be passed. a long list of rebate actions
would be knocked out without right of
appeal.
Obstacle in House.
Senator Spooners assurance that ne
viii not stand IN the way of the bilPs
passage is believed TO remove the only
serious obstacle IN the upper chamber, /
but the House is by no means easy to
manage. The Judiciary Committee of
that body IS not regarded as very
friendly. and. as the measure is likely
to require some time for debate its
early passage is by no means certain.
H r. Fuller, legislative agent of the
railroad employees organizations. has
taken squarely the position that until
his interests were given convincing as

PHILADELPHIA, Dec 29-The Phila,-
delphia MIX Exchange stands as a COM
mon Iaw-breaker and eXtOrtiOnist This
close ana secret combination OF 500 milk
dealers has forced the farmers, with
whom its members deal. 10 give them
forty-six and one-half quarts. for which
the farmers are paid on a basis OF forty
quarts.
This form Of extortion is unknown in
any other part OF the United States.
Oppose Federal Laws.
IT is fatly and specifically opposed TO
the spirit and letter OF the Federal stat
utes creating certain weights and meas
ures for the measurement of liquids and
solids. Under these statutes milk must
be measured by the liquid gallon, which
contains 23l cubic inches.
The Philadelphia Milk Exchange for a
long time compelled the teUaers to sell
to its members milk measured IN gal
Ions Of dry measure. each OF which con-
talns 252 cubic inches. while the dealers
sold 10 the public in the smaller liquid
quart measures,
Long and Short Of It.
Measurements iu dry gallons did not
yield enough loot, so the exchange gave
another twist 70 the screw, another inch
10 the 'fOrty-quart' can, and insisted
that milk should be sold 20 them by
the pound and that there should be 100
pounds of milk ia each can
As the result Of this ingenious swiudle,
the farmer is paid Sl.60, OF at the rate OF
4 cents a quart for every '-forty-quart'
can, and the consumer pays for the milk
taken from this can $500, being forty
quarts at 5 cents. plus six and One-half
extra quarts at d cents each, OF - cents,
