beforehand, the soldiers warning all

killed and 1000 wounded.

Horsemen Arc Interested

One of the most interesting fca-
lures Of the Western Stock SHOW
which will open in Denver January
"A next. will be the exhibition Of
western bred horses. 1t is but q few
years since tho well known broncho
was about the principal thing raised
in the way Of horse flesh, and the
ranges were covered with them,
small ugly, evil-dispositioned combi-
nations Of horse flesh and devilish-
ness. Between the wars of South At
RIGA and China and the American
war with Spain, the demand for
horses has gradually absorbed this
old broncho stock until there are
but few left and their places are be-
ing taken with better bred animals.
Hundreds Of pure bred stations have
been brought into the West during
Tie past five years and the Western
$ ock show will provide the first OPP
ortunity to show what the change
a5 really been. 1t is predicted byI
horse growers that there will bel

IN Mattcr OF Discharge OF Emnl0Yc


Louisville, Ky, Oct. 23.-In the
United States circuit court today
Judge Walter Evans in the case of
the United States VS.. J. w. Scott, q
train dispatcher for the Louisville &
Nashville railroad on trial for allcg-
ed violation OF the Erdman act which
seeks to prevent the interstate car
riers from keeping employees OF the
labor union, held that section 10 Of
the act was void because It is not the
regulation Of commerce within the
meaning of the commerce clause Of
the constitution and therefore beyond
the power of congress to enact such.
The court sustained the demurrer
to the indictment against Scott and
discharged him from custody.
The suit was brought in the lower
court on the instructions from the
attorney general of the United States
and an appeal was taken. Scott was
discharged as operator in the en-
ploye of the Louisville & Nashville
railroad and the railroad telegra-
piers union took the matter into the
courts.
