Measure Will Affect Every
State in Union, Claim
Railroads

KANSAS CITY, March S.-Missouri's
2 cent passenger and maximum freight
laws were nullified by decision
handed down here today in the United
States district court by Judge Smith
Mcpherson. AS a result ii is believed,
there will be a quick return in Mis-
souri, to cent fares. Frank Hager-
man. counsel for the Is companies in
volved. declares the courts ruling
sounds the death knell of the 2 cent
rate in every state in the union.
Judge Mcpherson held that both the
commodity and passenger laws were
confiscatory and unconstitutional
The state, on the other hand. declared
emphatically that Missouris fight for
lower rates would continue Attorney
General Major said an appeal would be
taken and that the present legislature
would be asked to pass a new rate that
would stand the tests of the courts.
Governor Hadley made similar state
ment at Jefferson City.
VICTORY FOR RAILROADS
The decision was a notable victory
for the railroads and sweeping in it's
effects. Eighteen railroads were in
volved in the litigation, basing their
appeal on the cent fare and ma ximum
freight rate statutes enacted by the Mis-
souri, legislature. The railroads con-
tended that the rates fixed by the
statutes of the state were not remun-
erative but confiscatory and asked that
the enforcement of the statutes be en-
Joined The state brought proceedings
to have them enforced.
The decision says:
GIsT OF DECISION
MY opinion is that a railroad prop
erty, properly built and properly man
aged. should over and above expenses
make a return of 6 per cent per annum
And considering all the evidence, the
evidence fairly shows there is less than
per cent of returns and not more than
3 per cent, upon any OF them, and as to
some of them deficit, taking the prop
erty as above stated within the state of
Missouri at its fair valuation, and this
is so without reference to bonds"
