ports from Kansas prompted active COW
ering by shorts in the wheat pit today.

lingering illness, California has lost
one of her stanchest citizens, one of
the virile men who came to the west
when it was little more than wilder

made the state what ii is. The de-
cedent was such a man as was the late
Jacob Hart Neff-a man of action, who
was at the same time gentle and who
found time. in the rush OF work, to be
kind to his fellow men.

ness, becoming one OF the highest au-
thorities on the Pacific coast in that
line.
Thomson constructed some of the
largest bridges and Eharyes in the
state He did extensive work for the
Southern Pacific and Santa Fe rail-

Court Decides Interstate Com.
merce Act Has No Force
Over Foreign Cargo

United States District Judge j. ]. de
state commerce act could not be ap-
piled TO steamship lines carrying
freight from foreign ports to the
United States This is the first ruling
on the point in the federal courts and
was handed down in the suits brought
by the United States against the Pacific
Mail steamship company and the South
ern Pacific company. in which the de-
murrers OF the steamship company was
sustained and those of the railroad
overruled.
There wereseveral indictments brought

forth in joint tariff OF rates and

merce commission, and then in force
The court held that the interstate act
does not apply to a common carrier
OF freight on the ocean, although the
freight is carried 10 some inland point
of the United States.
The Pacific Mail steamship company
contended that even though the COM
pany had eoncurred in the rate pub
lished by the Southern Pacific COM
pany and filed with the interstate COM
merce. commission on mating from
Kobe, Japan. it was not bound to OBJ
serve 1t, because the interstate com
merce act could not be held TO apply
to ocean shipments. This point was
sustained by Judge de Haven on the
authority of a decision rendered by the
interstate commerce commission in
what is known as the Cosmopolitan
shipping company against the Ham
burg steamship company.
The demurrers of the Southern Pa
cif1c company in the same cases were
overruled by the court Judge de
Haven held that the railroad having
filed unitary rate with the steamship
company II could not depart from it
although it applied in part to the ocean
