A. 0. U. ". SUED
Suit for Premium Money Paid by Policy
Holders in Durham.

Affairs of the Ancient Order
| United Workmen are now to be
aired in the courts of this county
and state, this litigation begun
being much on the order of the
litigation that has cost the Mutual
Reserve Fund Life association of
New York a great deal of money.
Preparations are being made to
bring a suit against the Ancient
Order United Workmen by Mr..
H. A. Reams, of this city, the
matter having already been
placed in the hands of Mr.. Sidney
c. Chambers, attorney, who is
preparing the case.
Mr.. Reams had a policy for
$1,000 in this company or organ
ization and he kept the policy up
for eighteen years. Last fall the
rates were nearly doubled, so that
he had to drop his policy with
the company, losing all the pre-
miums that he had paid into the
company during all these years.
His suit is for $500. this being
the premiums and interest.
This is a test case and a number
of other suits will be brought in
this city if this is successful.
Among others who are preparing
to bring suits are: Messrs. w.
H. Holloway, c. w. Ezzell, J. H.
Berry, Louis W. Highsmith. R.
F. Morris, w. L. Johnson, T. E.
Darlington and D. W. Andrews.
All of these had policies in the
organization and had to drop
them on account of the extra high
rate charged.
AS an example of how greatly
the rates were increased Mr..
Reams' case tells the story. He
had been paying S.. 40 per month
for his insurance and the rate
was increased to S14.84. 1t was
then that he refused to pay fur
Their, dropped his policy and in
stituted this suit that is soon to
be docketed in the court here.
When the rates were increased
a great per cent of the member
ship in this state refused to pay
further and expecting litigation

withdrew from this state and /:

HARRIS NOT GUILTY.

ness ana TO take WITHOUT re-
senting a vile name that was ap-
piled to him. On the night of
the homicide, said the lawyer,
Goss came into the store and got
between Harris and the rear
door. He had chased Harris out
that very door on one occasion.
This time he would head him off.
Then he commanded him to come
back and then to come out OF the
house. Harris told him he did
not want trouble and that he
would not 60 with him. The
threatening manner of Goss fol-
lowed and then Harris, thinking
! that the time had come in which
he either had to kill or be killed,
had fired the fatal shot. The
last words of Goss, said Mr..
Bryant, photographed the
thought that were passing though
his mind: Il was not going to
shoot YOU" who had said that he
was? 1t was the thought that
were passing through his own
mind after the ball had passed
through his threat. 1t was an
able effort.

TIE Governor s message which
he read to the Legislature last
week, was an able one, and the
fact that he read the message
himself added to the effective.
ness Of what he wanted to say.
1t was very comprehensive Of
the needs in the line of new laws
to be enacted, and plainly stated
what the governor thought best
to do in most cases, the excep.
ton being his position on the
question Of the establishment of
a reformatory for youthful crimi-
mails. Along this line while he
agrees that such an institution
would be a good thing, he does
not provide the way that many
believe to be the best way to
care for these youths. Of course
his plan is good as far as it goes.

Washington, Oct. 15.-Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Lane, who
went to California In response to re
ports from the agent Of the commits
sion declaring that the Southern Pa
cihc railroad company was giving re
bates and that proof could be obtained
has returned to Washington.
The commissioner believes that
fragrant violation Of the law can be
proved, and II is the present under
standing that as soon as the facts col
lected are submitted to the full com
mission, certitlcation of the illegal
operations of the railroad will be
made to the department of justice
with a request for prosecution OF
those responsible. The law, as II now
stands, provides two-year imprison'
ment for each offense.
Whether Mr.. Hartman can be In.
dicted will depend upon whether his
responsibility for the alleged viola,
lions of the law can be demonstrated,
Members of the interstate commerce
commission believe ii can. They say
that as the president of the Southern
Pacific company he either knew or
should have known what his subordin.
ates were doing.
According to Commissioner Lanes
Investigation. rebates were being paid
as late as September "a of this year
and during that part OF September
up to the cath the road paid out in
rebates to favored shippers $4,000,
The evidence upon which the inter,
Estate conlmerc" commission VIII base
their charges was found in the books
of the compsdy itself.
II is stated that upon the last day
of Commissioner Lanes stay In San
Francisco. freight official of the
Southern Pacific offered himself as a
witness for the government, 1t is
asserted, with the hope OF obtaining
immunity.
In nearly every case in which re-
bate charges were made the shippers
involved are said to be rich and
powerful corporations. A partial list
OF these includes the Union Ice com
pany, the California Development com
pany, the Colorado Fuel and Iron com
pany, the Eldorado Lumber company,
the California Sugar and White Pine
company, the California Pine Box and
