MUST ACCEPT COTTON
When Offered for Shipment Railroads
 Must Issue Bill of Ladng

Little Rock, Oct 22-The most inn portant decision of the supreme court Monday was the case of the Iron Mountain Railway company against the state, from Izard county, which was affirmed.
 The railroad commission brought suit in Izard county against the Iron Mountain for failure to accept cotton for shipment and give bill of lading for the same.
 The railroad contended that there was no room on the platform for stor- ing cotton. The lower court rendered verdict in favor of the state for a penalty of three times the value of the cotton, amounting to $500. The railroad appealed to the supreme court
 The case has attracted more than ordinary attention as testing the power of the railroad commission in the premises.
 The case was one in which cotton was offered the company's agent al Calico Rock for shipment, when there were no cars and no place to store cotton, and he refused to accent the same and issue bill of lading.

over his shoulder and saw her sitting behind him as on former occasion. Although taken by surprise, and some what embarrassed, he lost no time in laying before her the proposition he was empowered to make. She accept ed at once, and the contract was soon closed; but not until he had re- venged himself upon her for some of the follies she had, unconsciously led him to commit by the following ma licious catechisation: Does tobacco smoke make you sick?" Do you scream if you chance to see mouse?" Do you think it necessary to convert all the reporters into train of spe- cial admirers?' Do you make en- gagements with your dressmaker to take effect during office hours?"
 She knew he was exceeding the linn it of his inquisitorial duties designed to determine her fitness for the place, but she bore herself humbly, con- vinced of the certainty of future re- prisals.
 'All things come round to him who waits"-and her. When, year after ward, the editor-in-chief received an uplift to metropolitan journal and the city editor was promoted to the position he formerly occupied, he made second proposition to the proof-reader. and this time, she did the catechising: Do you stay out later at night than business strictly requires?" Do you come home sober?" Will you stop smoking cigars and put the money In the say ings bank?" Will you build the kitchen fire?" Shall you think 1t nec- essary to make invidious comparisons between my cooking and your moth er's?" And, last but not least, may your mother-in-law live with us?"
 To all these questions he gave sat isfactory replies, adding as he kissed her lips and prevented her from pro- pounding more: If the proof isn't clean, you shall be the one to cor rect it, dear.'

He had succeeded in forgetting all about the young woman behind him, when her high clear voice broke in upon his consciousness, saying: Dear me. I've forgotten how to make the mark for transposing."
 Don't bother!" was the curt reply He was just ripping councilman up the back, and was afraid some of his vituperative adjectives might get away
 "Sir?" was the indignant rejoinder, in tone crisp as celery and cold as well-frozen sherbet But the city ed itor went on scratching, and paid no attention.
 But, by and by, when the corruption had all been exposed, and the story was complete, this terrible male rep resentative of Nemesis, who shares with her in this age the duty of chas- Using all offending malefactors, sub- sided into his proper person of meek gentlemanly young man, and in his suavest tone addressed her, saying: Now, madam, what can l have the pleasure of doing for you?' as he turned on his swinging chair, in her direction.
 But To and behold! the black hat and silk waist with the young woman under and inside them, respectively had vanished.
 There were the proof-slips duly cor rected; even the mark for transposing was all O. K. If it had not been for the pencil marks on these slips, he might have imagined the entire affair only the astounding hallucination of an over-worked city editors brain. Could she, after all, have been a female Pixie? But no! He had never heard of Pixie with whole nest of black birds on his or her head. He con- cluded, upon reflection, that she must be genuine bona fide woman who had gone away in pet because he was not sufficiently polite to her. And that was where he hit the nail square ly on the head
 Day after day went by but she did not come again and as the city editor
 
 the trolley cars, it annoyed him to find himself peering anxiously into the face of every young woman who wore big black hat On more than one occasion he had chased after silk shirt waists that bore some gen. eral resemblance to his hazy idea of what hers might have looked like, only to discover that they were not the one which he sought What impelled him to this search, or what would have been the result had he found her, he could not explain, even to him. self. Day after day the sick proof reader and typewriter girl failed, as the devil expressed it, to show up"

Word reached the office that she was down with pneumonia. Everybody and nobody read the proof, and rival papers perpetrated jokes over the fearfully-and-wonde head lines that got locked up in the forms and came off the press. The editor in-chief gave notice that there would be one vacant chair" if this state of affairs wasn't speedily remedied. Then, with heart beating with mingled hope and fear, the city editor insert ed in the paper this "ad:"
 "PERSONAL.-If the young lady in black hat and silk shirt waist who read proof for the city editor in the office of the -, two weeks ago last Monday aft ernoon will call at this office immediately. she will hear something to her advan- taRe."
 Next morning, the city editor looked

The prospect that the issue would be placed, however, indicated progress in the fix ing of the new standard of return on investment and a promise of the break ing of the deadlock which has existed between capital and its employers. A forcible reminder on the other hand of the difficulties which still remain In se- curing adequate capital facilities was offered by the decision of the Erie di- rectors to offer scrip instead of cash in the payment of dividends to their preferred stockholders in spite of large surplus earnings over dividend require ments shown. by the years operation. This determination to conserve cash re- sources for outlay in required better ments was regarded as so far sympto-
 matic of a general condition as to cause some renewed weakness in stocks of companies known to be similarly sit uated. E whence was at hand also of

FOOT GUARD CELEBRATE.
Major Weed Sets September 16 as
 Day for First Drill.

Major Smith c. Weed has sounded a call for the members of the Second company Governors Foot Guard to report for the f-rt drill of the season at the Second Regiment armory on Monday evening, September 16, This is about two months earlier than is customary for the "Feeters" to start drilling. The reason Major Weed has ordered the drills earlier than usual is that he wishes to have the company in fine trim by the time that the orr ganizaton leaves Connecticut to go to the Jamestown exposition as an escort to Governor Woodruff in October
 Major Weed fears that some of the men may need some brushing up in military tactics and the call is also for the benefit of new recruits who will appear in the ranks publicly for the first time on the Jamestown trip.

permanent change for fhe better in the stock market, but hardly before

Corey, Mtlliken & O., Boston: New York Central at the present price of about 1O4 is selling at the lowest level in ten years. It is even selling lower than when it paid only per cent. dividend. The lowest quotation record ed in 1899 was 105 while a few days ago it sold as low as 99 1-2. This not withstanding the fact that the dividend is now per cent. The rumor that New York Central will cut its divided rate is unworthy of a denial It may be true that on account of various causes, such as severe operating conditions, lack of freight equipment. which natur- ally caused congestion, and the higher cost of labor and material, the surplus applicable to dividends of the New York Central proper may be quite as large for the 1907 fiscal year as for the previous year, but the fact must not be lost sight of that the road has many -Yaluable equities concealed in subsid- iary companies. These equities when added to the earnings of the New York Central proper total nearly $27,0OO,OOO, or over 15 per cent on the $17S, 100000 of stock.
