MARINE

| Captain c. II. Larsen of the lost ship
Eclipse hopes to be able TO finish up
his business here and get away On
the Korea today. 1t looked at one time
as though he might be delayed by the
refusal q the sailors OF the crew 10
sign. the protest concerning the disaster
10 the Eclipse. Protest is the tech
meal term describing the written state
ment concerning the disaster which is
required by law To be drawn up and
signed by the master, the mate and
two seamen- 1t is the official account
OF the disaster 1t IS the basis OF the
settlement of insurance losses if there
Is any Insurance. either on vessel, cargo
or freight There is no insurance on
the vessel in this case, but there may
be on some Of the cargo; Captain Lar
sen does net kmow.
CAPTAIN Larsen prepared the protest
last Monday, and read II over TO the
Mr.. Cameron, the mate who was on
watch a the time the ship was struck
by lightning He approved the state
ment and agreed to sign it. Then the
two sailors who were on watch at the
time were called up and 1t was read
over TO them, and they agreed that it
was a correct statement of what hap
pened and that they would sign it.
Captaia Larsen desiring TO have a
clean copy made for signature, the type
written copy was made. and then the
sailors refused to sign it. They would
give no reason, but finally, Captain
Larsen says, they agreed to sign it
If So each were paid TO the ten men
Of the crew, $3.50 in. all This the
Captain refused point blank, consid-
ering # an attempt at blackmail- The
men, however, insist that as they lost
everything by the disaster they ought
to have that much to pay them for
their clothes and their gear, although
the maritime law does not provide for
any such payment.
Mate Cameron. of course, signed
without any question, and after awhile
the two men who were on the mate 5
watch at the time Of the lightning
stroke also signed It, and the matter
was settled.
The men are al getting along well
at the hospital and most. if not all Of

Mrs. kitcat was expected by the last

band broke has leg and she postponed
her trip on that account. The Aoran-
Fl lid not get out for Victoria and

RICH WOMAN MURDERED
Battling Crime in suburb of the City
of Chicago.

Chicago, Oct. 24.-What may
prove a haffling murder mystery de-
veloped Thursday night when the
body OF woman found in a drain
age canal near Summit H., was
identified as that of Mrs. Hannah
Kaiser, a widow seventy-one years
old, who disappeared from her home
October 10 with s156G in her pos
session.
The police obtained from p kis-
temmacher information that Mrs.
Kaiser had received a large sum of
money. kistemmacher is a nephew
of the victim and resides in apart
ments above those formerly occu-
pied by his aunt. He told Policeman
Simon, who accompanied him to
Summit where he made identifica-
tion, that Mrs. Kaiser recently sold
property for which she received
$500.
According to kistemmacher she
had no faith in banks and carried
her money sewed up in her clothing.
This habit was generally known
among the neighbors.

Federal Court Refuses Petition
Of Railroads for Writ Of
Injunction.
INTO EFFECT NOVEMBER |
Texas Stockmen viii Reap Substan-
dal Benefit Through Decision Of
H. S. Court at ST. Louis--Is
Not Coniiscalory.

st. Louis, Oct. 24.-The United
States circuit court with judges
Adams, Nandeventer and Hook sit
ting, yesterday refused to grant ar
Injunction asked by the Missouri.
Kansas and Texas and fifty other
railroads to restrain the interstate
commerce commission from enforc-
ing an order reducing rates on cat
tie from the southwest to st. Louis,
East St. Louis Chicago. Kansas
City and other points.
The petition asking for an injunc-
ton, filed two weeks ago. alleged
THAT the rates established by the
commission were confiscatory and
that the railroads would lose nearly
81, 100000 year if they were put
into effect. 1t also alleged that the
order was prejudicial to the shippers
of other classes of reight than cattle.
The court ruled that it had a per-
feet right to go into the evidence
and determine whether the rate was
confiscatory, but that before it could
do so. there must be a sufficient
showing that the interstate com
merce commission had exceeded its
authority or had acted beyond its
| right. This had not been done, the
topinion said, and the failure to
make a sufficient prima facie show
ing caused the court to refuse the
| in junction.
The case is considered important
because of the holding that the acts
OF the commission must be shown to
| be without authority before the
courts will take up a question in
! volving the reasonableness of an
ORDER. 1t is expected the case will be
Appealed to the United States SUI
pIt me court.
When the injunction suit was
brought, the companies also sought
to enjoin the order fixing S as a
maximum charge for switching a
car of cattle to the Chicago stock
yards. An injunction had previously
been issued against the commission
on account of this charge, and when
the judges called the attention of
the commission to the fact that ii
had violated an injunction in max
ing the second order, the commission
revoked its action. That matter was
not discussed in the opinion because
the order had been revoked
