PERJURY CASES AGAINST FEEDER.

cution of tho men charged with the
murder OF Ex-Governor Frank Steunen-
berg, with the exception of the cases
of Harry Orchard and Jack Simpkins.
came Saturday with the acquittal OF
George j.. Pettibone.
Charles Fl. Meyer, president OF the
Western Federation OF Miners, was
formally released Saturday afternoon
at 4 O'Clock and will return with Pet
tibore in a few days to Denver.
The case of Orchard, the self-Con-
fesscd assassin Of Steunenberg, is In
the hands of Prosecuting Attorney Van
Duyn, Of Canyon county. No state
ment as to the future procedure in
that case has been made, but it will
be called during the next term of
court at Caldwell, when it will prob
ably be finally disposed of.
Simpkins, a member Of the executive
board of the Western Federation of
Miners, who IS charged with compile
ity in the crime, is a fugitive from JUS
tice, and the charge against him will
stand.
When the Meyer case was called by
Judge Wood Saturday afternoon, James
H. Hawlay, representing Prosecuting
Attorney Van Duyn, signified the de-
sire of ;he state to have an order OF
dismissal entered
81 am satisfied" said Judge Wood,
that the course taken by the district
attorney and decided upon by attor-
neys for the state, is the proper course
to be taken in the matter. l have
watched the evidence carefully, so far
as the connecting and corroborating
evidence under the statute was con-
cerned in it's application to this defen-
dant, and there has certainly moth
ing developed in the two cases that
would justify the court in submitting
the case against him to a jury, un-
less there was considerable additional
connecting testimony to that which
which has been shown in the two cases
that have been tried, and for that rea-
son the case will be dismissed and an
order eXonerating the bail of the de-
fcndant'
In addition to dismiSsing the case
against C. H. Meyer, the state dis
missed the perjury case against DR..
McGhee of Spokane and G. w. Alley
Of Cripple Creek, both of whom were
accused OF giving false testimony in
the Haywood case. 1t is understood
the case against Yost, charged with
tampering with talesman during the
Haywood trial, will also be dismissed
Although the Pettibone Jurors
agreed that their deliberations should
be kept secret, it is stated that on the
first ballot the vote was to 4, the
majority being for acquittal
The second ballot resulted in n votn
o. to 3.
The third stood 10 to 2 and SO it re-
mained all through the night The
two holding out for conviction were
finally won over.

Virtually sustaIns Judge Lewis.

shington.-Unusual significance
is attached to a decision rendered by
the United States Supreme Court Mon
day in the case Of former Congressman
John N. Williamson of Oregon, who
was convicted of subornation OF per-
jury ander the timber and stone act,
in that the decision is expected to ap-
ply 10 practically all of the prosecu-
tions brought in the arid land states
by the department of justice for al
legged violations of the regulations OF
the Interior Department in timber and
stone and coal cases.
The decision virtually sustains the
recent decision of Judge Lewis of the
United States Court for the district Of
Colorado, dismissing the indictments
brought under the timber and stone
and coal land laws. Today's decision
recitcs:
"It is provided by section Of the
timber and stone act that effect shall
be given to its provisions by requisi-
tons prescribed by the commissioner
of the General Land Office. But this
power must be construed as authoriZ
ing the commissioner to adopt rules
and regulations for enforcement of the
statute and can not have authorized
him to virtually adopt rules and regu-
latioHs destructive of the rights Con
gress had conferred.
LAS there is no requirement concern
ing making Of final proof of particular
affidavits referred to, and as the entry
men who complies with the prelimi-
mary requirements is under no 0Dlisa.
ton to make such affidavits and has
full power to dispose. ad interim, of his
claim, upon final issue of patent, We
think the motive of the applicant at
the time CT final proof is irrelevant and
therefore that error was committed
not alone in instructing the Jury that
the indictment covered or could cover
procurement Of perjury in connection
with final proof and that the jury
might base conviction thereon, but in
admitting final proof as evidence tend
ing to show an alleged illegal purpose
in the primary application for the pur-
chase of lands"

Washington.-The report of First
Assistant Postmaster General Frank
Hitchcock has been made public. The
revenues collected through the post
Offices during the fiscal year 1906
amounted to about $1GS, 700 900, gain
of more than 81 .000, 900. and the report
states that this growth was continued
in 1907. when the aggregate was $780,
100000. In order to meet this continu-
Gus growth of his bureau Mr.. Hitch
cock makes an appeal for larger ap-
preparations.
"The present policy of reappointing
presidential postmasters who have con-
Quoted their offices to the satisfaction
OF the public and department has re-
suited in decided benefit to the SER
vice." says Mr. Hitchcock. He adds
that about siXty-tive per cent. of tho
presidential postmasters have been re-
appointed.
Increased salaries for various
classes of employees of the depart
ment are recommended. In order to
relieve third class pOstmasters OF the
necessity of paying for assistants out
of their salaries, a recommendation Is
made for an increase to $2,000,000 Of
the allowances for that purpose.
Thirty instead of fifteen days annual
leave Is raised for postal employees.
An extension of the city delivery
service to smaller towns than are in
cluded under the present law, is rec
commended. Under the amendment to
the law he suggests free delivery
would be given to over 1,4O0 towns
that do not now enjoy that privilege.
The total number of postmasters Of
all classes appointed during the year
was 1875, as against 14,535 for 1906.

LIABILITY Law
DECLARED VOID
UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT
HOLDS 1T TO BE UNcON-
STiTUTioNAl.
FELLOW SERVANT ACT
DECISION APPROVED BY FIVE
JUSTICES, FOUR MEMBERS
OF COURT DISSENTING.

Washington.-That the congress
sional act known as the Employers
liability law" is not in accordance with
rhe constitution OF the United States.
because it goes beyond the bounds
permitted in the regulation of inter-
state commerce, was ,he conclusion
reached by the Supreme Court of the
United States in deciding two damage
cases coming to the court from the
federal courts of Kentucky and Ten
nessee, which were brought under the
provisions of the law
The decision was announced by JUS
ice White, the court standing five to
four against the law.
Even among the five who voted not
to sustain the statute there were diff
ferent shades of opinion
Following are the principal points
from Justice Whites opinion:
The act being addressed to all com
mon carriers engaged in interstate
commerce, and imposing a liability
upon them in favor of any Of their en-
pioyes without qualification or restric-
tion as to the business in which the
carriers or their employees may be en-
gagged at the time of the injury. of
necessity includes subjects wholly out
side Of the power of Congress to reg
ulate commerce.
Concluding as we DO, that the sta
tute, while it embraces subjects within
the authority Of Congress to regulate
commerce. also includes subjects not
within its constitutional power. and
that the two are so lnterblended in
the statute that they are incapable
of separation, we are of the opinion
that the courts below rightly held the
statute to be repugnant to the consti-
tuition and uncomfortable and the
judgments below are, therefore, af-
firmed."
The decision was in suits for dam
sges-one being the case of the widow
of Will Howard. man who was killed
IN an accident near Memphis; the
other that Of the mother of Morris S.
Brooks, fireman killed on the South
ern Pacific in Nevada.
The Howard case waL tried in Ten
nessee with Judge Mccall presiding,
and the Brooks case in Kentucky,
with Judge Walter Evans on the
bench.

Topeka Factory 80 Days Behind
With Orders.
PEOPLE WANT AUTOS.
Number of Cars Used in Topeka
Now III.
Vary From Little Runab0uts to
Powerful Touring Cars.

The metropolitan papers of the east
and north have printed many serious
articles as well as cartoons and jokes
about the Kansas farmers buying au-
tomob biIes, but when it comes to the
real facts about the increase in the
number of automobiles placed in COM
mission in Kansas every year they
bear out the supposed exaggeration
of the many jokes over the matter.
Topeka has an automobile factory
with a capacity of $50 high grade cars
a year and this plant is now thirty
days behind with it's orders. From
every town in Kansas come reports in
its papers of how many autos they
can boast of, and the number is re-
markably large when the size of some
of these places is considered.
Kansas is western agricultural
Wall street, but when it comes to au-
tomobiles the Sunflower state answers
present to the roll call with about as
many big red "chu chu cars as any
state in the union when the machines
in the great cities or some states are
excepted. The demand for automo-
biles is increasing the world over. The
farmer and business and professional
man are buying as many machines as
are the millfonaires and sons of mill
lionaires. Every well-to-do citizen now
days has ambitions to own an auto
and he is gratifying them as fast as
the factories can fill the orders. A
good and serviceable machine is now
in reach of every successful business
man even though his affairs are on
modest scale.
An idea of the extent and growth of
the automobile habit may be gained
from a list of the number of machines
in Topeka last year and the number
here at the present time. According
to the records of the city clerk twen-
ty-five new automobiles have been
placed in commission in Topeka al
ready this year. These bring the to-
tai number of machines in use in the
city up to III. This is an unusually
large number of autos for a western
| city of this size, and represents an in
vestment Of about $4,000. If all
the machines in the city could be
gathered in one procession they would
| make an impressive parade a mile
long. The machines listed in the city
| clerks books represent every make
| from little runabout to the power
4 full roadsters and seven passenger
| touring cars. The average machine is
the two seated touring car Of the bet
ter grade.
