Gunners on the lower Niagara
river almost annihilated a flock Of
wild swans that visited that section
late Sunday afternoon.
Most Of the swans we're brought
down with fowling pieces as they
hovered over the lower river. but not
few OF them were taken alive. The
birds that settled into the water
seemed to get caught in the ice and
eddies and could not rise and the hunt
ers went after them in boats.
The capture OF swans at that point
is not an unusual occurrence. though
such big catch as that Of Sunday
has never before been recorded here.

RAILROADS WIN.
INJUNCTION SUIT
Judge Vandeventer Restraints
Arkansas Commission From
Enforcing Rates.
INTERFERENCE UNREASONABLE
Court Holds That Laws of Congr. y
Take Precedence Over State
Regulations.

St. Paul, Sept. 5.-Judge Vandeven-
ter, in the United States circuit court
at ST. Paul, yesterday granted the in
junction requested by the st. Louis,
Iron Mountain & Southern and three
other railroads operating in Arkan-
sas against the state railway commits
sion.
The injunction restrains the COM
mission from enforcing the new
2-cent fare law and from interfering
with the railroads in raising their
freight rates on interstate traffic.
Rates Unlawful.
In his decision the court held that
the testimony in the present hearing
had demonstrated to him that the
rates proposed by the Arkansas rail-
way commission were unreasonable,
non-compensatory and unlawful and
could not be enforced against the rail-
road companies. The court directed
that each defendant give bond,
which will probably be about $1OO, 900
each, that they would keep a distinct
and accurate account showing the diff
ference between the tariff charges of
the railroads and what would have
been charged if the rates of the Ar
kansas commission had been applied.
In an eX-cathedra discussion explain
ing the order from the bench, Judge
Vandeventer held that the laws Of
congress should take precedence over
the laws Of Arkansas in rate matters
where the interstate regulations in
fringed on the intra-state regulations.
Should Be Set Aside.
The court made condition to his
order that if any individual or passen-
ger, meaning the sovereign people.
suffered by reason of the rates TO be
applied during the tendency OF the
order and that on final hearing the
order should be set aside, the penal
ties for violation prescribed by the
laws might be enforced as if no in
junction had been issued and due
preparation made. The enforcement
of these penalties however, should
not cover a period preceding the be-
ginning of this action.

sembled On the Central Maine fair
grounds here late yesterday Charles
oliver Jones, the we'll known aero.
naut of Hammondsport, N. Y, fell
distance of 500 feet to his death
Among the witnesses of the frightful
plunge were Mrs. Jones and child, and
they were almost the first to reach
the side of the dying man. The aero,
naut died an hour and half after the
accident.
Jones had been at the fair grounds
with his dirigible balloon Boomer
ang," known as Strobel airship.
since Monday.
Gas Bag Takes Fire.
Yesterday he arranged to make a
flight between 8 and 4 o'clock, but
such high wind prevailed that a de.
ay was necessary. At 1880 conditions
had modified and he gave the word to
have the machine released.
When the aeronaut reached a height
Of more than 500 feet the spectators
were amazed to see small tongues of
fame issuing from under the gas bag
in front of the motor. At this time
the balloon had passed out of the fair
grounds. Many persons in the great
crowd endeavored to apprise Jones
of his danger, but several minutes
elapsed before he noticed the fire.
Falls to His Death.
Then he grasped the rip cord and by
letting out gas endeavored to reach
the earth. The machine had descend
ed but short distance when a sud-
den burst of fame enveloped the gas
bag, the frame work immediately sep
arating from the bag. Jones fell with
the frame of his motor and when the
spectators reached him he was lying
under it. The gas bag was completely
destroyed
The physicians who were in the
crowd found that Jones had no chance
to survive, as he was injured internal
ly and his spine was broken.

WOMAN OF STREET INVOLVED
Police Get Her Story of Events Leading
Up to Hour When Physician
Was Shot.

Omaha, Neb., Sept. S. = The princi-

case yesterday was the absolute proof
that for months DR.. Frederick T. Rus
tin, who was mysteriously murdered
as he was about to enter his own
home at an early hour Wednesday
morning, had been leading double
life, and that while he maintained
an expensive establishment out on
Farnam Hill, the best residential sec
ton of the city, he also maintained a
suite of rooms on lower Douglas
street
The Farnam Hill district residence
was maintained by Rustin for his
wife and two children and was very
extravagsntly furnished. In the low
er Douglas street district he main
tanned a woman, common woman Of
the streets, with no redeeming quail
ties of person or of mind. This wom-
an went under the name of Mrs. Rice,
Miss Leona Bonnill and several other
aliases. She was brought into the po-
lice station yesterday morning and
lHere maze anu signed a statement
telling of the events of the evening
during which the murder was commit
ted.
Woman's Story Of Night.
According to the story, Mrs. Rice
spent part of the evening with Rustin
in his Office. Towards II o'clock Rus
tin determined to go home, although
he had not been in his own home for
a week. The woman went with him.
Within half block of the Rustin
home, Mrs. Rice. according to her
statement, halted and told Rustin to
go on home, get the thing she wanted
and return to her, after which they
would go back to his Office. She saw
him enter his gate. After waiting an
hour for his return Mrs. Rice took a
street car and went to her rooms,
from where she telephoned the Rustin
home and asked for the doctor. She
was told that he had not yet reached
home, and within the next two hours
she three times telephoned the Rus
tin house, each time being told that
DR.. Rustin was not in.
She did not know of the shooting
until the next morning.
