COMMISSION ENDOWED
Judge Vandeventer of Federal Court Grants Temporary Restrain.
 ing Order.

States Circuit Court today granted the injunction request ed by the St. Louis, Iron Mount am x Southern and other rail- roads operating in Arkansas. against the Arkansas State Rail- road Commission. The injunc- tlon restraints the commission from enforcing the two-cent fare law and from interfering with the railroads in raising their freight rates on interstate traffic.
 W. E. Floyd, secretary of the railroad commission, shortly after noon today received a tele gram from Hon. J. w. Crockett. member of the commission who is in St. Paul. This message states that freight and pas senger rates were enjoined. but did not give any of the details of the ruling of the court.
 Mr. Floyd, in speaking of the Associated Press report regard ing the interfering with the in terstate freight late, said:
 The railroad clalmed that the state railroad commission was making rate, on rough materials which should properly be under the interstate rate. This rough material rate applies mostly to lum Der. and the railroads claim that 90 per cent of the lum Der traffic is out, hauls to points in othes states and therefore should come under the inter- state rates. 1 would infer that Judge Vandeventer has so held in his opinion. Of course you understand this is only specula- tion on my part, not having any knowledge on the mat ter other than the press report"
 The supposition is that the State and the shippers, who have been making a hard fight against the railroads in their effort to en- join the enforcing the 2.cent rate law and the commission tariff of freight rates have lost their whole contention. If, however, only the interstate rates are en- joined, it means partial victory for the commission, since it's right to continue the making of rates for State traffic remains unquestioned.
 It is believed, however, that it will not be long before the rail- roads have resumed the Scent passenger fare which prevailed before the last Legislature pass ed the 2-cent rate act. It is not known when the hearing is set to make the injunction perma- nent.
 The State was represented at the preliminary by Attorney General w. F. Kirby, Hon. Geo. B. Rose and Hon. Morris M. Cohn, and Col, John M. Moore and Attorney Tom Buzbee rep resented the railroads. Com missioners Crockett and Allen, Hon. George w. Donaghey and Rate Clerk Swain were present.
 The temporary injunction is to preserve the status quo pending the suit and not to change the status.
 The rates are unreasonable, non compensatory and unlawful. The railroads must give bonds of $2OO,OOO each, to keep records of the difference in rates charg-
