conclusion that all OF the other gas
companies in New York city are bound
BY the decision OF the highest court.
THE United states Supreme Court
with reference 10 the Consolidated Gas
Company says that there must first be
fair trial under the S0-cent gas Law
before the company seeks to set the
statute aside" said high legal author.
~ to an Evening World reporter to-
day. He added:
1.-THE Supreme Court opinion does not
apply alone to the Consolidated Gas
Company. It reaches them all. The
other companies are parties to othe-
suits brought to test the validity Of the
ao.cent rate. Those suits are still
pending, but as the highest court has
said that there must frst be fair
trial. under the so-cent gas law, 1t
naturally follows that these other
suits are voided by the decree Of the
United States Supreme Court"
What the Supreme Court Said.
As to the proprIety OF tie United
States Circuit Court first granting an
injunction to the Gas Trust lawyers, the
| United States Supreme Court says that
| the lower court cannot be truthfully
spoken Of as precipitate In its conduct"
and. further. that its action in taking
and hearing the case cannot be sub.
jet OF proper criticism"
While the law Is held TO be constitu.
tional and 81 cents Is made legal rate,
because the Gas Trus, belongs to a
class Il corporations which Is subject,
to regulation by the Legislature in the
matte. Of rates, the highest court has
knocked out two features Of the law a.
follows.
First, the provision that the pressure
OF the gas in the service mains at any
distance .rom the place Of manufacture
shall not lie less than one inch nor
more than Two and nalf inches.
SecuuG-The heavy penalties watch a
violation OF the law may render the Gas
Trust liable to.
They are not necessary or insep-
traule part OF the acts declared the
court. When the Objectionable part
OF statute is eliminated. II the balance
- valid, and capable OF being carried
cut and II the court can conclude /,
/ would have been enacted II that portion
which is Illegal had been omitted, the

Dr. Cook Is LiO1ized By
 People Of Copenhagen

Washington. September 6.-'Special.)- What Is looked upon as a failure of At torney General wickersham to properly eraw the corporation tax feature of the Payne bill is giving treasury officials, charged with it's enforcement, no end of trouble. It will probably be some days before the officials are able to announce instructions to corporations for reports from them. In the meantime officials of corporations are busy going to the treasury department with queries upon the manner in which returns shall be made. reading of the law discloses a careless use of technical terms, which has confused the accountants of corporations which will soon be cailed upon to render their returns. It may be that many cor porations will be called upon to set up special accounts in order to meet the de- mands of the law.
 The principal difficulty appears to be which accounts shall be stated. Whether upon a movement of cash through the hands of corporations, or upon an earn ings and expense basis through which commercial and industrial accounts are generally stated. It has been pointed out to the treasury department that a cor poration under the indefinite terms of the provision could with intent of a mis- understanding materially reduce the tax paid by it. For instance, a corporation. under the terms of the act, can include

PEARY FINDS NO
 TRACE OF COOK

St. Johns, N. F., September 6.-Com- mander Robert E. Peary, who an- nounced today that he had discovered the north pole on April of the present year. found no trace of pr. Frederick A. Cook of Brooklyn, who reported to the world five days ago that he had made the same discovery in April of the preceding year. This news reached here tonight through Capt. Robert Bart lett of the Roosevelt, Peary's ship, en route to Chateau Bay, Labrador.
 Captain Bartlett telegraphed to rela- lives that Peary had found nothing to indicate that Dr. Cook had reached the pole. While Peary does not express ly repudiate Dr. Cooks contention in so many words, has statement may have an important bearing upon determining the extent of Cooks explorations.
 The Roosevelt was in good condition and the crew all right wired Captain Bartlett in addition, and he reported that the schooner Jeanie, carrying sup plies for the expedition, had met them off the coast of Greenland. Coming south the Roosevelt passed Etah and Upernavik. Greenland, where Dr. Cook had preceded Peary. The Roosevelt tonight is bound for Chateau Bay. Labrador, with Peary and party on board, where she is due tomorrow.

Detroit, September 6-All day Sheriff Gaston and his deputies have dragged Ecorse creek and quizzed the residents in the downtown river district in hopes of finding some clew to the identity of a decapitated, armless and legless body Of a young woman found in a sack in the stream early this morning, but their eff forts have as yet been in vain.
 The county physicians feel certain that the body had only been in the water a few days, and the age of the victim is estimated to be between 20 and P years. After examining the body both physicians gave it as their opinion that the torso IS that of a married woman whose height was about five feet six inches.
 The officers learned this afternoon that a similar sack was found containing q dead dog in Ecorse creek a few days ago. The dog was sewn in the sack and weighted down in the same manner as the womans body. The officials believe both sacks were thrown in the creek by
