WEATHER FORECAST.

Walla Walla and vicinity: Fair to-
night and Sunday.
Washington: Fair tonight, except
showers along the coast. Sunday fair,
east: showers, west portion.
Weather Conditions.
A barometric depression is moving
slowly eastward north of the Dakotas
and strong high barometric areas
overlie most of the United States. AS
a result, fair weather is general over
nearly all of the whole country. Light
showers occurred in eastern Montana
and on the New England coast. There
has been a considerable fall in temper
allure in the inter- mountain states, the
low temperature causing frosts at sew
eral stations. The morning temperature
at Walla Walla was the lowest since
last spring. The indications are for
fair weather in this vicinity tonight
and Sunday

decided demurrer in the case OF Pine
Bros. against the c., B. & Q. railway
company constituting for the time Sec
ton 90 Of the Hepburn rate law, which
is practically an enactment by con-
gress Of Section 2,o74 of the Iowa law
regulating railroads. The law prohibits
the making of contracts by common
carriers limiting their liability for neg
ligence in the porting and deitv-
er!ng OF freight.
In the case here. Pine Eros. of
Diagonal, purchased a stallion at Bush
nell, H., and accepted bill Of lading
valu:ng the stallion at 800. They
paid the freight on that basis and the
stallion worth $1,000 died because Of
the negligence of the defendant IN
Transporting it from Bushnell to dag
onal.
The suit Is to cover that sum ard
the defendant pleaded the contract as
complete defense to the action. The
plaintiff deulu-red 10 the answer.
Judge Townerf ruled that the Hep
burn law applied to the extent that the
company could not control 10 exempt
themselves entirely from liabilities but
that the agreement fixing the value at
500 for the purpose of obtaining a
cheaper freight rate stopped the plain
tiff from now claiming q larger liabil-
:ty. unless they could prove thai it was

pany. and not made by them for tho
purpose Of Obtaining the benefit of a
