by the federal court to take evil

decision of the lower court was af-
firmed.
If the contention of the Great
Northern is sustained by the su-
preme court all the indictments
against the Standard Oil, including
those under which Judge Lands i'm
posed the fine of 29,240,000, will
fall. These indictments were re-
turned between June 90 and August
20, 1906, the indictments in the
suit before Judge Landis having
been returned August 2S, 1906.
The suspension for two months of
the operation of the Hepburn rate
law was due to the desire of the
under the Elkins act as evidence
that had been secured covered that
period. The Hepburn act could not
be retrospective, and unless such
indictments were secured under the
Elkins act, all offenders indicted in
the period named will go unpunish-
ed
The case is recognized by the
government law officials as one of
the most important of its kind ever
argued before the supreme court,
and Attorney General Bonaparte,
his chief assistant, Milton E. Pur-
dy, and other officials of the de-
partment of Justice have been pre-
pairing for weeks to fight the con-
tention of the Great Northern at
torneys.
Another important case now be-
fore the supreme court is the appli-
cation of the state of Nebraska for
writ of mandamus, preventing the
federal court judges of the district
of Nebraska from interfering with

FAMOUS GREAT NORTHERN RE-
BATE CASE BEFORE THE
SUPREME COURT.
VALIDITY OF THE LAW
Attorneys for Great Northern At
tempt to Show That Elkins Act
Was Repealed by Hepburn
Act Of Later Date.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The United
states supreme court today heard
argument by counsel for the Great
Northern railroad company in sup
port of contention that the penalty
clause of the Elkins act was repeal
ed by the Hepburn act on the date
OF the passage of the latter, June
20. 1906. The Great Northern re-
bate cases have been fought bitter
ly through the lower courts, not be-
cause of the amount involved, but
in the hope that the Elkins act may
be declared void by the highest tri-
bunal of the land. If the contention
of the railroads attorneys should be
upheld by the court, the decision
would render ineffective all indict-
mcnts for rebating returned from
June 20, 1906, when the Hepburn
act went into effect This would in
validate the Standard OILS big

The Great Norther- was fined
$4,000 for rebating under the Ell
kins act, the indictment having been
brought during the two months

in force providing a penalty for the

AFTER RESTING THROUGH THE
HOLIDAYS LAWMAKERS
RESUME WORK
a LONG GRIND AHEAD
Matter of Reorganization of Navy
Department VIII Attract At
tention-RaiIroad Legis-
lation Is Urged.

Washington, Jan Gaining
strength from its holiday of rest
for the strenuous work of averting
and postponing desired legislation,
congress resumed it's session today.
Nearly all of the senators and repre-
sentatives who spent the Christmas
period in the bosoms of their fam
lilies have returned to Washintg gon,
prepared for the long grind ahead
of them.
The road ahead of the solons is
not now so rocky as when they ad-
journed, with a great sigh of relief
for the holidays. The worst of the
financial panic is now apparently
past and the demand for financial
Legislation and currency tinkering
weeks ago. The republican mem
bers look with dread upon the pass
ing of any exceedingly important
measures in the face of a presiden-
tial election, and the acrimonious
comments of their democratic col
leagues upon the "do-nothing' poll
cy was as gall and wormwood to the
republican palate. Now that pros
perity has returned, in a measure,
the solons of both parties are look
ing forward to an interesting and
wordy period of debate. The orators
on both sides have spent their holi-
days in priming with verbal fire
works, which will soon be let loose,
to the end that the great American
voter may be educated as to the
best means of disposing of his suf-
frage in the coming election.
| OF chief interest as a topic of con
versation among the returned legis
| lators, particularly those of the
lower house, is the presidential
boom of Uncle joe Cannon
Friends of the speaker in the
house of representative he
ihdHy puppOitCio' al lht bods
over which he presides-have been
quietly working for the last few
days on plans that will bring Can
non forward as the biggest gun
among the republican aspirants for
Roosevelt's place. 1t is likely that
these plans will eliminate shortly
in definite launching of the Can
non boom. Many central and western
states are already looked upon as
being in the Cannon column. Hi
nois will undoubtedly stand solidly
back of her favorite son, and Michi-
gan, Minnesota and other northern
states have given evidence of con-
siderable Cannon sentiment.
Among the important legislative
matters now prominently before
congress, that of reorganization of
the navy department. is attracting
the most attention. Recent strict
ures on the conduct of the navy,
coupled with the resignation of
Rear Admiral Bronson because of
internal dissensions, has made the
matter of readjustment of naval
affairs pressing one.
Congress will also have a hard
time to dodge the question of addi-
tional railroad legislation. Many
important organizations of the COM
mercial interests of the country, in
cluding the Trans Mississippi con-
gress and the National Live Stock
association, have demanded legisla-
ton on the subject of furnishing
cars to shippers and on other mat
ters. 1t is unlikely that any such
bills will be passed, as the con-
gressmen do not consider this the
proper time.
