HUGHES VETOES BILL
INNOCENT RAILROAD RATE IS
 DISAPPROVED.
New York Governor Declares Injustice on Part of Railroads Does Not Justify Injustice by the
 State.

Albany, June 11.-Governor Hughes today vetoed the bill instituting flat rate of cents a mile on every railroad in the State more than 150 miles long.
 In the course of his veto message. the Governor pointed out that the passage of the bill was not preceded by Legislative investigation or suitable inquiry under the authority of the State; nor is the fixing of this rate predicated on reports or statistics of ffcially collaborated which would per init a fair conclusion as to the justice of its operation with reference to the railroads within it's purview."
 The Governor said also, in part:
 Injustice on the part of the rail- road corporations toward the State does not justify injustice on the part of the State toward the railroad cor porations. The action of the Govern ment should be fair and impartial and on this every citizen, whatever his in- terest, is entitled to insist The fact that those in control of railroad cor porations have been guilty of grossly improper fnanciering and of illegal and injurious discrimnations in charges, points clearly to the necessity of effective State action, but does not require or warrant arbitrary repri- sals.
 "In dealing with these questions. de- mocracy must demonstrate it's capacity to act on deliberation and to deal iustlY"

HOLDS FOR COMPANY
DECISION FOR WESTERN UNION BY
 SUPREME COURT.
Opinion That No Punitive Damages May He Secured for Failure to Deliver Telegram Before
 Arrival of Train.

In handing down a decision in the case of the Western Union Telegraph Company against Patty Westmoreland yesterday the Supreme Court held that for failure to deliver a telegram in which the appellee requested her broth CT to meet her at trains arrival, the appellant could not be held liable for punitive damages.
 The action was brought by the ap- pellee to recover damages on account of mental pain for punitive damages on account of the telegraph company s failure to deliver the telegram in ques- tion. The Supreme Court held that damages for mental pain and punitive damages were not recoverable, because they were not and could not have been in contemplation by the parties at the time the contract for the delivery of the telegram was made.
 The Supreme Court yesterday hand ed down the following decisions:

IL Food decayed in the body

as food decayed before being eaten.
Food nourishes or poisons. just accord
ing to how long it remains in the Bowels
undigested.
Most of the Digestion occurs in the
thirty feet of intestines.
They are lined with a set Of little
mouths, that squeeze Digestive Juices into
the Food eaten.
The Instestines are also lined with millions
of little suction pumps. that draw the Nutri-
ment from Food. as it passes them in going
through.
But, when the Bowel-Muscles are weak,
the Food moves too slowly to stimulate
the little Gastric Mouths and there is
flow or too little flow of Digestive Juice.
to change the food into nourishment.
Then, the food decays in the Bowels,
and the little suction pumps draw Poison
from the dccayed Food, into the blood, in
stead Of the Nutrition they should have
drawn.
