NO CONTEST HERE
ON 2-CENT FARE
OVERTURNING OF LAW BY MIS-
SOURI, DECISION WON'T AT
Feet WISCONSIN,
BADGER STATUTE DIFFERENT,
Accurate Valuation by Tax Commission
During Prosperous Times Prevents
Attack in Courts.
DATA SOON 70 BE MADE PUBLIC

MADISON. Wis, March 9.-[Spe-
ciaI. THAT the overturning of the =
cent fare law in Missouri by Judge Nc
Pherson yesterday will in no way lead
to a contest on the 2-cent act in WiscOn-
sin is the general opinion of legislator
here. From the beginning the Missouri
law was contested in the courts, while
i'll Wisconsin the law was permitted to
go into operation without contest OF
even the suggestion of a contest since it
has been in operation.
At first the railroad attorneys said
they would give Wisconsin six months
trial with the law and if the earnings
were not sufficient they would then take
the matter into the courts. The law
local traffic, managers report an increase
in the earnings and in the number OF
persons carried in spite of an Intervening
period of depression.
Wisconsin Law Different.
The law in Wisconsin is different in
many vital respects from the Missouri
act The "Show me- state passed q
law designating certain roads upon
which the 2-cent fare would be effective.
In this state the law designated no roads
specifically but said that mo corporation
operating railroad in this state the
gross receipts of which are or exceed
$500 per mile per annur, shall demand,
collect or receive a greater compensa-
ton for the transportation of persons
than cents per mile" This created a
class out of the railroads, whose earn
ings were high, including the North
Western, Milwaukee and Burlington
roads. Immediately the Wisconsin Cen
trail voluntarily placed itself in the same
class by ordering a 2-cent rate on its
owl. lines although its earnings would
nc. place it within the jurisdiction Of
tie act.
Commission Is Justified.
IF the Wisconsin tax commission and
railroad rate commission ever Justified
their existence, they have today" said
enc Of the legislators. while the 212
cent fare law was in operation by or
der of the railroad commission, sufficient
information was gathered to justify a
2-cent rate. With the accurate valua-
ton of railroads made by the tax com
mission considered with the details of
information for cost of service cOmput-
ed by the railroad commission the rail
roads would have a hopeless task over
turning the Wisconsin 2-cent fare law.
In Missouri the attack on the law was
made during a period of DEPRESSION but
in Wisconsin nforma ton in great detail
as to the cost of passenger traffic was
gathered long before the depression
came and the 2-cent fare law went into
effect"
The data gathered by the railroad
rate commission under the opera ton of
the 2-cent fare law is not in such shape
As to be made public at this time, said
one of the commissioners yesterday. He
said that this information would be tab
ulated soon and the results would be
announced,

Little Johnny. who had been praying
for some months for God to send him a

ACQUISITION IGNORED.

Little Rock, February 26.- Upon the express condition that no underhand methods be em- p.Oyed and that the prisoner shall not be spirited away from the jurisdiction Of the state Gov ernor Donaghey yesterday af- ternoon granted a provisional re- quisition for J c. Mabray, alias Mayberry, alias Gordon, who ii allegations be true has well earned the title "Prince of Swind lers" his alleged victims being ing only men Of wealth and sup posed sagacity.
 The announcement of the Gov ernor followed a lengthy hear ing in his office of the applica- tiOn of a Council Bluff Detec- tive, P M Groneweg for a re- quisition for the supposed min ing expert who was arrested with three companions Tuesday in a fine residence which they had rented furnished, where they were living in luxurious style with iveried servants carriages and automobiles.
 After listening carefully to the attorneys representing the detective and the defendant Gov ernor Donaghey announced that in the event that the charges of using the mails to defraud were for any reason dropped by the federal authorities, that he would honor the acquisition with the understanding that Mabray was not to be spirited out of the state without his law yers having ample time to take legal steps to secure his rights as citizen by making due ap- plication for a writ of habeas corpus. The Council Bluff of ficer willingly acceded to the condition.
 A new and mysterious Mike" arrived here yesterday, but the authorities refuse to reveal his identity. In the parlance or the gang arrested, according to their note book in which they kept a record of their alleged victims the latter were termed Mikes"
 Mabry and his companions are still in jail being unable to make the bond of $15,OOO required in his case and S1O,OOO in the oth- CTS.

Carlisle will be well represent ed at Little Rock next Saturday, when the Barnum & Baileys greatest shows on earth exhibit there, for a great many of our citizens have alrerdy expressed themselves as having made up their minds to attend. A glance at the list of wonders to be seen with this big show would lead one to believe that the limit in tremendous size as well as num- Der of novelties to be seen has finally been reached. Barnum & Bailey present this year under their city of II acres of tents, more things new than have been offered by all other shows in years. The big menagerie has
 been augmented by the addition of many new strange beasts and is larger than all the zological gardens in this country com oined. The street parade so gorgeous and so tremendous in size, beggars description and in all is fair index to all the won derful performances that follow.
