Argue Rebate Case.

Argue Rebate Case.
Des Moines.-The fact that the
Rock Island railroad granted rebates
to other shippers is no reason why
the Agar Packing company should re-
cover damages against 1t, declared
Attorney Carroll Wright in arguing a
demurrer to the packing companys
damage suit before Judge McHenry.
In his argument Mr.. Wright gave
three reasons why the suit brought by
the Agars to recover S44S,000 damages
from thS railroad company for alleged
rate Determinations. should not stand.
First, he said the petition does not
show the extent of the rebating. Then
he declared that the fact that the road
had performed services for nothing
Cid not entitle those who had paid
fair and reasonable comps sensation
to collect damages. AS third rea-
son he asserted that the petition
proves no discrimination against the
Agar Packing company because 1t
does not show that the shipments In
any case were shipped to parties in
competition against the Des Molnes
concern.
N. T. Guernsey In answering the
attorney for the railroad declared
that the giving of rebates does dis
criminate against those to whom no
concessions are made. He also as
serted that the Agar Packing com
pany Is in competition with Chicago
firms. Judge McHenry asked to have
briefs submitted and announced that
he would take some time to rule on
the demurrer.
The Agars In their petition claim
to have paid out $116,949 to the Rock
Island road in freight rates which
was rebated to shippers to Chicago
packing houses.
The statute provides that II dis
elimination is shown the party dis.
eliminated against can collect from
the railroad an amount. equal to three
times the amount Of damages.
Mr.. Wright argued that damages do
not necessarily mean the recovery OF
money paid in on rates, which he
said were absolutely fair. Mr.. Guern.
sey replied that the payment Of money
In freight rates which were not charg-
ed to competitors could be consid.
cred nothing but damages.

Smiths for April.

Charles Battell Loomis, in the April number of Smiths Magazine, has some thing to say on the subject of enthusiasm which is well worth cutting out and pre- serving It is contained in q little half humorous and wholly worth while essay which the editors call "a sermon," and which is regular feature of the maga- zine.
 The novelette, in the present number of the magazine is "Bellegardes Girl" by S. Carleton. The author Of "'rlle Ribboned Way" and "The Inn of the Long Year has told more absorbing and fascinating tale of love and adventure in this story than in any previous effort. It is a story of the Canadian northwest. Accompany ing this is serious of pictures by George D'Arcy Chadwick of Canadian types of beauty. These paintings are printed on heavy tinted paper, and in form suitable for framing.
 There are a number of short stories worthy of notice. "The Return of the Colquhoun," by Robert Barr, is one of the best things he has written in a long time.
 Among other contributors to the maga- zine are John H. Mclean, who writes in- terestngly of the work done by the civic federation; Holman F. Day. who appears with another funny story of Maine life i; Charles de Kay, who writes on the work of Bryson Burroughs, the artist, and whose article Is illustrated with repro ductions of a number of paintings with which the general public is not familiar; Wallace Irwin, and Rennold Wolf, who furnishes an interesting interview with Margaret Anglin, the actress.
