quaint views and old.world cities. One

fan pave. but the towns are SO close
together that the journey need never
be monotonous. And the lace-like
architecture of Brussels, the mystery
that enfolds antique. Bruges, or the
historic associations 81 Dordrecht and
the dead cities of Zuyder Zee, are
sufficient 'recompense for the slight
discomforts Of the route. But once
east Of Namur the pave ceases, and
one can travel in the delights of speed

TO SUE PULLMAN COMPANY
ATTORNEY GENERAL eYERs WILL
DEMAND s74,o15.oo.
This Amount 10 for Filing Fee and
Penalties Would Run up to
Million or More.

Des Moines, Dec. 16.-Attorney Gen.
eral Byers expects this week to sue
the Pullman company for $74,015 filing
fee and huge penalties for failure to
file articles of Incorporation.
The Pullman company has been op'
Grating sleeping cars in Iowa ever
since they were invented The attorn.
ney general has discovered that il
has never filed articles of incorpora.
ton with the secretary of state. I'm
der the Iowa law such corporation
1t is claimed is required to file arti.
cles with the secretary of state.
Its capital stock Is now $4,000, 900.
The Iowa law fixes fee OF 81 thous
and on the capital stock for filing fee
when the articles are filed with the
secretary of state. Therefore the
company, it is claimed, owes the publ ,
treasury $4,000, and it costs SIS to
record the articles, which makes the
total claim on this account STOOLS.
In addition the Iowa law provides
that when corporation fails to file
its articles of incorporation with the
secretary of state it becomes subject
to a penalty of S100 a day for each
day until 1t does So if 1t does business
in the stata in the meantime.
The exact date of the formation of
the Pullman company is not known,
nor the date when it started to do
business in Iowa. The attorney gen
eral is investigating with a view to
finding out the exact date. If a cor
poration were to have neglected for
thirty years to file it's articles, the
penalty accruing would amount to
$1,095,000, counting nothing for the
six or seven leap years VIII an an ex-
ira $100 accrued. o.
The question Of whether the full
penalty in such cases can be recover
ed has not been determined by the
courts yet. Several cases involving
the question are in the courts. The
attorney general has brought suit
against several large corporations
besides the Pullman.

TOBACCO TRUST
| MUST DISSOLVE
so RULES FEDERAL CIRCUIT
/ COURT IN FINAL DECREE.
BAN ON NINE COMPANIES
Defendants and Government Both Will
/ Appeal, and Meanwhile the
Combine May Continue to
! Do Business. Et&,

So New York, Dec. 16.-Nine compa
MES, with their subsidiaries, are
named as constituting an illegal com
bination in the final decree, filed Tues
day in the United States circuit court
putting into effect the judgment re
Gently obtained by the government In
it's suit to dissolve the so-called
tobacco trust.
The companies named are the
American Tobacco Company, the
American Snuff Company, the Ameri
can Cigar Company, the American
Stogie Company, MacAndrews
Forbes Company, P. Lorillard & Co.
R. ]. Reynolds Tobacco Company
Blackwelps Durham Tobacco Company
and the Conley Foil Company. Each
of the first five of these companies the
court declares is in itself a combina
ton in violation of law.
Must Restore Competition.
The order enjoins these companies
from continuing as parties in the com
bination and restraints them from en-
Gaging in interstate or foreign trade
until reasonable competition" be-
tween them is restored. Nor may the
companies named, or their subsidi
aries, acquire by conveyance or other
wise, the plant or business of any
other defendant corporation wherein
any one of them now holds stock, OF
exercise any control whatsoever over
it's corporate acts.
Both the government and the de-
PENDANT companies will at once take
appeals from the decree. Such action
on the companies part will make eff
fective one highly important clause
that which provides for suspension
of the Injunction during the tendency
of an appeal. As the matter stands
therefore, the companies may continue
business as heretofore and until an at
firmation of the Judgment is obtained
in the supreme court. Twenty days are
allowed for the appeal to be filed. The
government will appeal on what it
considers errors and omissions in the
decree, and the defendants will appeal
from the general decision of the court.
Why Government Appeals.
1t Is understood that one ground of
the governments appeal will be the
failure Of the court to declare that the
American Tobacco Company, the
American Snuff Company, the Ameri,
can Cigar Company, the American
Stogie Company, MacAndrews &
Forbes Company and the Conley Foil
Company have each attempted and are
attempting to force a monopoly. An,
other ground for the governments ap'
peal will be the denial of its demand
for receivership for the defendant
corporations.
AS indicated in the original finding,
the complaint of the government was
dismissed as to the Imperial Tobacco
Company of Great Britain and Ireland
limited; the British.American Tobacco
Company, w. s. Matthews C Sons, T.
c. Williams Company, David Dunlop
incorporated, and the United Cigar
Stores Company.

DISEASED CATTLE
WORTH VAST sum
ALL AFFECTED ONES IN IOWA
| VALUED AT 100000.
MUST HAVE TUBERCULOSIS
Preventive Measures Under Discus.
sion-Dr. J. W. kimme of Fort
Dodge Urges Cities To Re-
quire Tests of Herds.

Des Moines, Dec 16.-Six million
dollars is the value of diseased cattle
in Iowa, according to DIR. ]. w. Kimme
and DR.. p. o. Koto. And the bulk OF
these diseased cattle are afflicted with
tuberculosis. What disposition should
be made of them, and what measures
taken to prevent further spread OF
the disease was the object of a meet,
ing of Des Moines physicians and
members of the board of control to,
gether with officers in charge of all
Iowa institutions, which was held at
the Slavery last night.
DR.. Kimme in lengthy address ad.
vised the more perfect enforcement OF
the laws now in effect, making the sale
of disease affected milk, cream, butter
or cheese unlawful. He strongly in
dorsed the adoption of an ordinance
in Des Moines, requiring all dairy cows
to be tested for tuberculosis before
allowing any of their milk to be offer
ed for sale.
DIR. E. e. Dorr, presided at the meet
Ing, and after brief statement as to
its object, he urged the cooperation
of the state with the city officials and
members Of the local tuberculosis as
ISOLATION in the execution of the
health ,aws,a nd the adoption of city
ordinances to place impure milk under
the ban.
A Success In Fort Dodge.
One strong argument which DR..
Kimme put forward in favor of city
control of the milk supply, was the
experience Fort Dodge has just had
with this measure. Five years ago
the city council of Fort Dodge adopted
such an ordinance and during the per.
iod which has elapsed since there has
been a decrease of twenty-three and a
half per cent in the number of cases
lof sickness originating from impiire
milk, he said He stated that one hun
dred other Iowa cities and towns had
adopted this system of protection
against tuberculosis with gratifying re.
|sults.
DIR. kimme also recommended that
Iit penalty after January l, 1910, for
any person to sell milk from a dis
eased COW. He placed the time year
in advance in order that the state vet,
Urinary department may have an OPP,
portunity to test all dairy herds in the
state, and this, he said, should be done
free of expense to the owner of the
herds. He also protested strongly
against reimbursing any owner for the
loss arising from the slaughter of dis.
eased animals.
DR.. H. E. Kirschner, who has charge
of the tuberculosis colony at Iowa
City, said that out of the eighty-seven
Inmates of the hospital, he discovered
the larger number of them were farm,
ers. When tracing, back to ascertain
the origin of their disease, he found
to his establishment that they believed
it came from working among cattle
afflicted with tuberculosis. .
