Indianapolis. March 9O-The union min

tracts have been made nor have the
miners and operators yet entered into dis

ton of the mines after April l, pending
agreement.

Washington March 3O.-The government
will not prosecute railroads for failure
to comply with the commodity clause"
of the railroad rate law, pending a deci-
sion of the supreme court. This decision
has been arrived at, it is understood,
after careful consideration by the Presi-
dent and that he has accordingly direct
ed the department of justice to bring a
test case as soon as possible after May
l. the day when becomes effective the
law forbidding any railroad to transport
any article or commodity other than tim
ber, manufactured, mined or produced
by such road, or in which 1t is directly
or indirectly interested.
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1908-03-31
GOVERNMENT WILL NOT
PROSECUTE RAILROADS

Thus any railroad that owns coal mines
would be liable to prosecution should
it carry its own coal to market. The
President, it is stated, has no desire to
increase the embarrassments which sur
round the railroads in their efforts to
comply with the law. AS the question Of
the validity of the commodity clause"
has been seriously raised by competent
legal opinion, 1t was thought best for
all interests involved that a prompt de-
termination of the question in the su-
preme court should be sought.
1t is understood that the railroads have
given assurance to the government that
if the courts decide against them they
will Immediately in good faith comply
with the law.

Hack Also Gives Out Excuses
for His Defeat.
LEAVES FOR ENGLAND
Worlds Wrestling Champion
Denies Use of Oil.
Says Every Time HeWas Rubbed
Several We're Present.

Chicago, April S.--George Hacken-
schmidt. dethroned wrestling cham
pion, sore in body and mind. yesterday
changed his mind about going to
Minnesota farm with w. w. Wittig,
ana instead departed at once for Eng
land. ~.
1t Is said that he cabled a long dis
patch to London, declaring that Frank
Gotch's body was oiled and that the
American continually gouged him in
the eyes and that he was unfairly
treated by Referee Ed Smith. This was
carried to Gotch, who said at once:
every time 1 was rubbed was at the
Illinois Athletic, club, and it was done
in the presence of seven and eight peo-
pie. On the day of the match I was
not rubbed at all. Had Hackensch1nidt
thought I was oiled he should have ap-
pealed to the, referee at any stage OF
the game to settle it at once. My wrists
were not oiled. 1 purposely trained
lightly so as to perspire much early in
the bout and that made me slippery.
One of Gotch,s representatives sald
"Hackeuschmidt said that his thumbs
were practically numbed after the nfsr
few minutes with Gotch, as the Arnerl-
whenever he caught Gotch's hand, ne
said. Frank would twist it suddenly
and bring all his weight upon the
thumb. 1t was not an effort ON HACK.
enschmidt's part to get a. flying mare
hold, as 1 see Gotch thinks, that made
Hack use both hands on one OF ms at
various stages. 1t was Hackenschmldt' $
effort to break away from the grip
Gotch had on his thumb sH.'
Up in Hackenschmidt,s training
quarters Rudolph Unholz. the hghter,
who was Hacks second, listened to the
comment on gouging by Hack anu
said, in a kidding way:
did he gouge you? Then why oio
YOU not gouge him? There was ms
law: why didn't you swing on IT! we
German fighters will have to make up
for YOUR record Papke is the greatest
of his class and will surely peat the
negro" He meant Cans. f.
Referee Ed Smith says that Hacken-
schmidt at no time made any declara-
ton that oil was used He did COM
plain of gouging and Gotch soon stop
ned this of his own accord, AFTER the
crowd began to hiss.
Notwithstanding will return TO Eng
land and then depart for Cairo ana
Constantinople. where lie will give pos
ing exhibitions.
