the apparatus the sexophone, and dc

The seXophone was shown TO be a

of highly mdgEetiZed steel, ending in
a pith ball. Ii was held above the
subject by means OF a wooden handle
with copper core.
Various tests were made at Mr.

COMMISSION RULES
AGAINST RAILROADS

WASHINGTON. March 1.-THE in
terstate commerce commission in an
opinion handed down today by Com
missioner Harlan. held IL to be un-
lawful for railroads to 80 adjust their
rate schedules as To force commod-
ities into 2 particular city or port.
The case was that of the chamber
OF commerce az Milwaukee against
the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific,
and the Chicago, Milwaukee and st
Paul railroad The complainants
charged that cheaper rates were given
on grain from the west and north
west To Chicago than to milwaukee,. IN
deciding that the joint through rate ON
corn. rye and oats from such points
ought not FOR the future to exceed
the through races on those grains To
Chicago. Commissioners Harlan said:
The defendant overlooks. the right
OF the shipper TO chose his own mar
ket and to 10 business where he pre-
fers or finds IL more advantageous 20
carry IL on. II cannot lawfully compel
the shipping pJDli9 to contribute to
its revenues on any such grounds.

Fly NM EXPELLED
BY |NGERSOLL
ENCAMPMEAT
GRAND MASTER OF ODD Eel
LOWS ABLE TO MUSTER ONLY
FEW FRIENDS IN SESSION LAST
ING MOST OF NIGHT.

William III. Flynn. grand master OF
the Independent Ordef oi add Fellows
for Michigan. was expelled from In.
gersoll Encampment No. 29. after a
session that began early Wednesday
evening and lasted until $50 Thurs
day morning.
This expulsion does Lot alter
Flynn's title TO the rank OF grond mas
ter, but prevents his election as grand
representative TO the sovereign grand
lodge OF the order, which meets IN
Seattle in the summer. IL is under
stood that Flynn is considering an APP
peal 10 the grand cncampment of
Michigan.
They did everythin TO Flynn but
throw him out of the window" Is the
way one man expressed the situation.
The vote was very strongly against
Flynn, only 30 out OF nearly 200 being
in his favor.
The principal charge against Flynn
came from the making OF loan OF
$500 to Thomas Robinson. who was
found asphyxiated IN his Office yea-
and a half ago with circumstances
pointing To suicide. Robinson put up
bond was found. after his death, TO be
vameless.
. Flynn was one OF the trustees who
accepted the bond. II was alleged In
his defense that precautions had been
taken to inquire into the validity of
the security. and that note had also
beeh given by Robinson. There was
Il mass Of testimony amounting to
nearly 200 pages bearing upon the dis
cussion. Col o. A. James defended
Flynn.
In addition to reading all the testi-
mony. which included minor charges
rejecting upon Flynn's sobriety and
conduct, arguments were made on
both sides. One Of Flynn's defenders
argued that the grand master should
be given special consideration. but he
was told that this would not be the
case.
IL has been claimed, on behalf OF
the trustees accused, that the estate
of Robinson would have paid the loan
II the claim had been pressed. Evil
dence was produced Wednesday night
tending TO show that Robinson left no
estate worth mentioning.
The meeting was more and more
noisy as the members became tired
with the passing OF the hours. Oppon.
ents Of Flynn say that he left the hall
some time before the final vote was
taken. T. C. Grove. another former
trustee. was tried some time ago and
suspended for term OF years.
Flynn is more TO blame than Grove
because he Is an attorney and should
have known better how TO protect the
lodge" was the statement made Ill
the arguments. III Grove was sus-
pended, Flynn should be expelled"
The grand master had no comment
to make on the case Thursday morn
ing. Having been up most OF The
night, he vas in bed until lat. hour
in the morning.
FLYNN would not be grand master
except for the bad workings OF the APP
pointive system" declared one OF the
grand masters opponents. after the
meeting "A man Is appointed to a
minor Office and works up through Sc
niority until he becomes head of the
order. no matter whether he is fitted
for the place or not"
Flynn's action I'm revoking the char
ter of Olive Branch lodge temporarily
d,d much To stir up feeling over the
trial. as Olice Branch members are
prominent in the encampment.

ENGLISH AND FRENCH
NOT BUYING BOOKS

LONDON, March 12-Both London
and Paris are In the throes of what Is
called book crisis. Publishers in
both cities have had an extremely bad
season.
In Paris the reason given for the
crisis is that there is no criticism and
no means OF guiding the public taste.
Literary criticism In newspapers has
become lost art. The only mention
OF books In journals Is contained I'm
the paid puffs OF the publishers. Crit
cism has died because praise had be-

MAYOR FISCHER ON STAND.
Defense's Most Important Witness
"Meservey Five Trial.

"SSOISCJ GtS0 tiats
Special to Times Republican.
Mason City, Feb. 26.-That Consta-
BILE Peters threatened to shoot down
anyone who should interfere with him
in the performance of his duties as an
officer of the law, was the testimony
of Mayor Herman Fischer of Meservey,
in the "Meservey Five" trial here to-
day. Mayor Fischer went to the Brown
Gobeli auction sale, and saw Peters
there in the act of making an attach
ment levy on the goods to be sold.
Peters asked the mayor if he was to be
arrested. Fischer testified that he said
he knew nothing about the matter.
Then he said Peters stated that he
knew papers for his arrest had been
Issued According to Fischer's testi-
n1ony, 1t was at this juncture that
Peters made his threats about shooting.
Peters himself, on the stand for the
state, denied that he had made such
a threat.
Justice Stauffer, who with Peters
was the leader of the Meservey faction
opposing the Five was the last wit
ness for the state. He is very weak
from a long illness, and had to be sup
ported in his chair while on the stand,
even then almost fainting at one time.
Attorneys for the defense then opened
their case, and Mayor Fischer was the
most important witness.
