Campaign.

CHICAGO, March 25.- rhe Record-Herald
says this morning thai a conference of
presidents of railroads centering In Chi
cago is to be held soon to consider plans
for attacking a number of state rate laws
which present faults similar to which
caused the supreme court of the United
States to declare the Minnesota state rate
unconstitutional
The error which attached to the Mime
sofa and North Carolina laws, also is found
in a majority of the statutes passed by
various legislatures during the past two
years it is said. II is claimed by the rail-
road interests that excessive penalties
within the meaning Of the supreme court
decision are provided for in most of the
new acts and that others fail because of
indeflniteness or other faults.
The statutes which will be attacked. ac-
cording to the report include those of
Arkansas, Iowa. illinois, Colorado, Kansas
Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico. South
Dakota, Tennessee, Texas and Indiana. It
is said to be the plan OF the railroad pres
idents to make up test cases on these laws
and rush them to the court of last resort

misbehavior in office brought against him
by Lorin Andrews and other American
lawyers resident in Shanghai. The report

cary
This report is in the nature of a verdict
holding Judge Whitley guiltless of the bad
motives necessary to a legal cause for inn
peachment, but finding him guilty-though
more by forceful inference than by direct
accusation-of high-handedness and harsh
ness and some serious mistakes in the
conduct of his court.
The investigation by the special commit
tee followed the Introduction in the house
by Mr.. Waldo Of New York of a memorial
comprising twenty-nine distinct charges

WASHINGTON. March 25.-Because of the
practical disappearance of scab disease
among cattle in the eastern portion of Ne
braska the federal governments quarantine
against cattle infected with the disease in
that part of the state will be modified.
This decision was reached at conference
here today between Governor George l..
Sheldon of Nebraska and Secretary Wilson
and DR.. Alonzo ID. Melvin chief of the
bureau of animal industry OF the Depart

for several years, owing to the prevalence

fact that there are only few isolated cases
OF the disease in the eastern part of the

heretofore its inspection of cattlo in that
part of the state.

CHINESE PLoTTERS IN PRISON
Government Imposes Penalty Worse
Than Death Upon Prominent
Men Implicated.

PEKING, March 25.-seven men arrested
recently, charged with trafficking in gov
ernmental secrets, have been found guilty
and sentenced to long terms of imprison-
ment. This punishment is generally con-
sidered to be worse than death. Ma Tung
and Liang Tun Yen, members of the For
eign board. were on the court that handed
down the sentences.
1t would appear that the conspiracy
against the government is fairly wide
spread and the revelations within the last
few days have considerably alarmed the
court and the administration. No less than
thirty important prisoners are now being
held in custody, and It is reported that the
chief of police of the Forbidden City is
among this number. The Department of
the Interior and the secret service police
are cooperating to run down the plotters.
Certain men at present in the government
service are Thought to be acting as spies
against the dynasty, as we'll as trafficking
in state secrets. and other arrests are ex-
pected.
