AN IMPORTANT CASE.

Washington Special to New York Sun
 The question as to whether the In- terstate Commerce Commission has un- der the provisions of the Hepburn Rate Act exclusive control of the opera ton of railroads, is brought squarely to an issue in a case just appealed to the United States Supreme Court by the Missouri Pacific Railroad Company. The railroad takes the position that under the new rate act, common car riers are Federal agencies under the exclusive control of the Interstate Com merce Commission, and that the States have no jurisdiction over their opera lions.
 This case will attract widespread attention as a question of State rights is involved and the highest court in the land is called upon to mark out where in the world of transportation inc authority of the Federal Govern ment begins and ends.

 New York Special to Chicago Tribune.
 The biggest shakeup in the his- navy is now in process of arrangement by the Secretary of the Navy, who has the appreciation of President Roose- vent in the plan. outlined.
 Of the officers now commanding. the eighteen battleships to make the long voyage from the Atlantic to the Paci- fic, for .world-beating cruise. only four captains now commandfhg ships will make the trip. The President and Secretary of the Navy have agreed to forward the long desired plan of ad- and send their elders to the rear, and of the eighteen captains who will com mand and be responsible for the $loo,.ooo. 900 worth of armsment fsrars and and Strait of Magellan to the Pacific four teen will be young men younger than the captains now in command,
 The shakeup will occur wholesale just after the finish of the target prac- tiee and maneuvers off Cape Cod this month. The work of the battleships in these maneuvers will be the ffrst of it's kind ever ordered by the depart ment. Naval officers are waiting for this practice with the keenest interest. New range finding apparatus has been only recently the target practice of the United States battleshfps at 1000 yards was considered almost without equal on the part of the ships of any other navy, Uncle Sam's present proposition is to make world records at 5000 yards under full speed and under conditions that promise to test the limitit of ca pacity of maneuvering and gunner ship of the American man and officer,
 The present captains of the big new ships will engage in these maneuvers and will then be relieved to make way for the younger ones. Just who will take the places of the captains to be sent ashore no one knows outside of the department. By the time the fleet is ready to start on it's long voy- age there will be plenty of men of the rank of captain, younger men with plenty of eagerness to engage in the responsf1blo task.

 Political diversity seems to have been of some use to MT. William Ran dolph Hearst, after all, His speech at the Jamestown Exposition yesterday with many of his former written and spoken utterances. His defense of the working men of San Francisco against the charge of eXtortion and of taking advantaEe of calamity to exact tn- Hated prices for labor was well put. He showed that the laboring classes were confronted with sudden increases In the prices and cost of living and that they were compelled, in self de- fense, to demand more money for their emergency services.

Car Lost From Train.

Rochester, Minn.-A remarkable
story of a lost freight car is vouched
for by officials of the Northwestern
A freight train arrived in this city
Thursday night with one car missing
and search failed to locate It, Word
was photographed all along the road, anG
yet no trace was obtained of the miss
ing car. The next morning the car,
which was loaded with -four was found
pitched near Olmstead station.
There is a steep grade near Ohm
stead, and it is the verdict of the train
crew that drawbar broke and dropped
on the rails, under the wheels, thereby
causing the car to leave the track.
The car was wrenched loose and hurled
a rod away and the train proceeded to
Rochester.
Shortly after the engine and front
part of the train arrived the rear cars
rolled into the yards, impelled by their
own momentum. The train men
thought the train had merely broken
in two, and after coupling the two parts
together the schedule was resumed
without any knowledge Of the car be-
ing lost.

"Dan," Thirty-fi Years Of Age, Dies
On Farm Near EIdon.

Special to IimeS-Republican.
Ottumwa, Feb. 11.-"Dan," for TWEEN
ty-three years the property of Patrick
Rourke, living three miles west of Ell
don, is dead. He was thirty-five years
of age and said to be the oldest horse
in Iowa. Dan" was brought to Ottum-
wa almost thirty years ago by a
stranger He was offered for sale to a
local dealer, together with the bride
and saddle which he bore, for $15.
The unusually low figure aroused the
suspicion of the dealer, who, fearing
the animal was stolen property, refused
to purchase him. However, the owner
finally succeeded in selling Dan to an
other dealer. From one hand to an
other the horse passed, Mr.. Rourke fin
ally purchasing him in 1884. For two
years now, he has lived life of ease
doing no work.
Tho nothing definite is known con-
corning Dams breeding, his master is
confident that he was thoroughbred.
He was bay horse with white
touches on his forehead, nose and right
hind foot. In build he was small, never
weighing more than 900 pounds. In,
endurance it was that Dan excelled.
He was not as speedy as some horses
but, his master says, he could start in
the morning, keep up a good stiff pace
all day long, and finish in the even
ing fresh and strong. His. mate Bill
tho still an active animal, must soon
follow him, since Bill himself, Mr..
Rourke states, is 30 years of age.

Mr.. Gates made it very plain that
the influence OF the oil kings endow-

of centralizing education in the great
cities.
With the ammo lncement OF Mr..
Rockefeller's plans the public gained
for the first time some comprehension
of the size and efficiency of the great
machine-the general education board
which he has quickly and noiselessly
assembled to do his work. Now that 1t
has come SO suddenly into possession
of the largest money gift ever made by
man, it looms as large on the educa-
