NORTH CAROLINA
SUPREME COURT
uPHoLDs NEW STATE LAW FIX
ING RAILWAY RATES.
ORDER OF FEDERAL COURT
Forbidding the Entering of Suits
Against Railroads Is Declared to
be In Violation Of the Fed
eral Constitution.

Raleigh N. c., Dec. 5.--The state
supreme court I'm a decision last even
ing reversed Judge Long, Of the su-
perior court, In the matter OF the $780,
600 fine imposed on the Southern
Railway Co. for selling passenger
tickets at a rate I'm excess of 2N
cents, the state rate. At the same time
the decision affirms the act of the
court and the cOnstitutionality of the
legislative act prescribing punishment
of agents and any officials of the road
for selling tickets at an excess rate,
the bringing of penalty suits of $500
each by individuals against the cor
poration for violation of the law, and
holding that tho federal court has no
authority to issue an Injunction
against bringing suits, criminal or
civil against the railroad. as it
would, in thus enjoining criminal ac-
ton, be bringing a suit against the
state, which Is forbidden by United
States laws, as the act of the legisla-
ture was self-operating as to passen-
ger fares and required no action on
the part of state officials.
The opinion sets out the following
four points: That there was no error
In Judge Long compelling trial of
the case; second, that the federal
court injunction was no defense t. a
criminal action, no power lying in tho
federal court to enioln n criminal
prosecution third. that the rate was
self-eyecuting in effect and that no
suit against the state will hold In de-
fiance of the Eleventh amendment to
the constitution; fourth, that where a
civil penalty is prescribed against a
corporation, followed by the creation
of criminal offense against the
agents of the corporation, the civil
penalty first prescribed relieves the
, corporation of punishment by indict-
ment under the criminal ofYense Gre
ated against the agent.
The court holds that the defendant
received absolutely fair trial before
Judge Long, but that there was no
criminal offense charged in the bill of
indictment against the Southern rail.
way. the offense of selling tickets
above the 2h rate being charged
against Ticket Agent T. e. Green, who
was punished by fine,
The act of the legislature prohibits
a charge above 2A cents per mile and
then provides that any railroad COM
pany violating the law shall be liable
to penalty of $500 and the agent be
guilty of u misdemeanor.
