We hear that there was a good fall of rain
in the Western part of the island on We'd
hesday.
Mr.. Jean Petersen writes us That 2 lines
of rain were measured in Frederikstod on
Thursday morning, and that the fall for Sep
tember had been 30 IS lines, which had fallen
on 10 days. Here in Christiansted the fall
for the month was 334 lines, falling on Is
days from the 18th to the 10Th inclusive
no rain fell. The long period average for
September is At lines.
We are informed that the Chrisfiansted
Gendarme Band viii play in Frederlksted
tomorrow afternoon from 4-6 o'clock.
The s. S. MuRou arrived at Frederiketed
at 5 O'Clock on Thursday afternoon, grounded
on coming into port, but was got off yes
terday morning and sailed for Windward
at noon.
II lines of rain were measured in Chris
tiansted this morning.
Since reading the account in the Herald,
which we print this morning, OF the last hur-
ricane in the Southern States we are
strengthened in our view that it was the
same cyclone as left the Caribbean sea on or
about the 10th ult. 1t will be seen that it
arrived at the Mississippi coast in the early
morning Of the Goth. so that it had ample
time to reach the coast, while or the other
hand the time is not so long as to make the
theory unreasonable.

pARALYZED But HELD ON.
Engineer Stuck to His Cab Despite
Serious Condition.

CUMBERLAND, Md, March s.
Engineer George Piper. of Mt. Saw
age. who runs freight train on the
Cumberland & Pennsylvania railroad,
sustained paralytic stroke while
running his train between here and
Mt. Savage yesterday afternoon, and
although his entire right side was ar
fected. he took his train into the sta
tiop at Mt Savage and turned 1t over
to the trainmen, before he would give
up his work.
His condition was such when he ar
rived there that he had to be lifted
from his cab. At Kreigbaum, where
he first reported his condition. he had
great difficulty in making himself un-
derstood by the operator, who wished
to have Mr.. Piper relieved at once.

BIG FIRE HAD
IN OGDEN
AUDITORIUM RING BURNED
DOWN-POST OFFICE AND
OTHER VALUABLE BUILDINGS
SAVED By HARD WORK.

OGDEN, March S.-Early this
morning Ogden was visited by de-
structive confiagration, as a result
of which the Auditorium Skating rink
on Grant avenue, between Twenty
fourth and Twenty-fifth streets. this
morning is a mass of charred ruins.
The building was practically gutted
by the fire, nearly all of the wood
work of the building having been
burned.
The fire was discovered by DR.. Rob-
inson at IL O'Clock, he being occu-
pied in his Office In the Lewis block
on Washington avenue. Hearing a
crash and peering from the rear win
dow of his Office. he witnessed a blaze
of fire leapins from the roof OF the
Auditorium and part OF the roof
had then fallen In. He Immediately
sent In an alarm to station number
one and within ten minutes after
that time three streams of water were
being poured into the burning build
ing. The firemen fought the fire
from the postoffice side so as to pro-
tect that building, together with the
Ogden Automobile garage, the Con-
gress dancing hall and a number OF
residences near there all Of which
were threatened with destruction.
The entire fire force of the city
was brought into action. Their work
saved the adjoining buildings and
the valuable contents of the same
The postoffice building and the ga
rage contained thousands of dollars
worth of property, none of which
was damaged. The loss to the Audi
torium Skating rink is very consid
cradle and 1t will have to be virtu'
ally rebuilt before IL can be used
again.

MANY NEw BILLS LIKELY.
Postal Savings Banks During Special
Scssion-also Change of In
augural Date.

WASHINGTON, March S.-When
congress meets March 15. to consider
tariff revision there will be no con-
stitulonal restrictions upon the ma
ture of business that may be trans
acted IL is generally conceded that
at least two months will be required
for the house to conclude considera-
tion OF all the schedules involved in
this case. The house will not re-
ceive the bill. The committee on
ways and means will take considera-
BILE time to consider the measure.
During this period the senate will
have nothing to do In respect to the
tariff and even after the bill leaves
the house IL will be In the hands of
the committee on finance for some
time before the senate actually gets
possession of IL. Then will begin a
long wait by the house until the SEN
ate amendments can be known and
conferees appointed to bring about an
agreement upon them.
This procedure will result in hay
ing 10 remain in session with moth
ing TO do in relation to the tarin Gov
ering period of a couple of months.
Three days is the extent of a recess
that may be taken by either body.
Senator's. therefore, are consider
Ing the advisability of entering upon
other legislation. The advocates of
the postal savings banks have talked
of the possibility of such policy be-
ing adopted ever since they became
aware of their inability to secure
legislation in the late congress.
There are many earnest advocates
OF a change of a date in the inaugu-
ration from March 4. Action on tnls
question may be taken.
Advocates of statehood for New
Mexico and Arizona were greatly dis
appointed that no progress could be
made toward the enactment of an en-
abling act during the session and
they are restless over any proposi-
tion to delay action until the regular
session of congress because they fear
the mass of legislation which will
then come up will crowd out their
claims.
The presidents veto of the census
bin makes mandatory some action to
provide for the enumeration of the
18th census. Legislation might be
delayed until early next winter, but
some believe that the extra session
will give an admirable opportunity
to dispose of It, The extra session is
sure to bring forth deluge of bills
in both houses.

TIED
TO WHITE
SUCH SEEMS IMPORT OF TESTI-
MONY GIVEN BY DEPUTIES
YESTERDAY-WHITE WOMAN
REPEATS HER ACCUSATIONS

In the case of the Riepetown Off
cials and William Terry. adjourned
from Saturday. there was a series of
arguments between the opposing
counsel during the whole of the fore
noon session and at times 1t was very
heated.
The Judge did not like the way
things were going and Informed the
counsel, both for the pros icution and
defense, that If they did not nave
a care he would impose a fine. At
torney Murphy is making a hard up-
hill fight In behalf of his clients and
II the case goes against them they
will not have him to blame.
The testimony of Belle White was
very much the same as that of White
and in many ways substantsated
what he swore to on the stand Her
story was In keeping with the depcsi-
tion she made following her arrest.
Deputy Sheriff Fulmer testified
that ne was suspicious of the actions
of White while the latter was in East
Ely and telephoned to Deputy Sherih
Jackson to that effect. Later Con-
stable Sheard came to East Ely and
told Fulmer that he did not want
White.
Deputy Sheriff Jackson testified
that Fulmer called him up on the
telephone and told him that there
was a party In East Ely who was act
ing suspiciously and thought he
might be from Riepetown. Jackson
told Sheard about 1t and Sheard said
he would go to East Ely and see
about 1t.
At this juncture the case was ad-
journed until 8 o'clock this morning.
at which time the prosecution will
put Judge Flannery on the stand.
This will be the last witness for the
prosecution. 1t Is expected that the
defense will have several witnesses
besides the defendants, who are to
go on the stand at this time, or al
least such is the report.
The strongest point made yester-
day is considered to have been In the
testimony of Deputies Fulmer and
Jackson, which would seem TO link
Sheard very closely with the con-
fessed hold-up man.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, March S.-A
notable decision in favor of the rail
roads was handed down today by
Judge Mcpherson, of the United
States district court, In the 2-cent
fare freight rate cases, involving
Is Missouri lines. The railroads
contended that the rates fixed by the
statutes of the state were not re-
munerative but confiscatory. and
that the enforcement of the statutes
be enjoined. The state brought pro-
ceedings to have them enforced.
1.-The question" said Judge Nc
Pherson in his decision. rs whether
the traffic wholly within the state of
Missouri generally referred to in the
evidence as local traffic, can be car
ried under the freight rate statute of
1907 and the passenger fare statute
of 1907 at such profit as will give
reasonable return after paying ex-
penses upon the investment, or
whether such traffic is carried at
profit. The court has
reached the conclusion that upon this
question the statutory rates fixed by
either and both statues are not re-
munerative."
In giving the reasons for such con-
clusions the decision says THE ur-
questioned and undoubted rule is
that there is a presumption both of
fact and of law In favor of the valid
ity of every legislative enactment.
The railway companies have the bur
den OF removing this presumption,
and showing that the statute clearly,
or as some courts say. palpably. and
others say, beyond a reasonable
doubt, that the statute is invalid
In these cases the court has recog-
nized this rule. The authorities
upon this question form a long and
unbroken line. with the single ex-
ception of the majority opinion in
the Pennsylvania case decided a year
ago. t6S Ati Rep. s76.) And that
one authority is not persuasive.
'All testimony and argument bear
ing upon the question as to what con-
sideration the legislature of Missouri
gave to these enactments, Is utterly
immaterial. Much was said In ar
gument as to the message of Gov
ernor Hughes. of New York, two
years ago in declining to approve
the 2-eent fare statute of that state.
Governor Hughes had the moral
courage to veto a measure OF popu-
lar favor because as ne believed the
question had not been fully consid
ered But the relations of a gov
ernor to proposed legislation. and
those of a court to legislation con
summated, are entirely different.
Most OF laymen and many law
yers believe the question is whether
the railway company as system Is
earning sufficient revenue upon the
value of the property of the system.
They believe that II the Burlington.
Santa Fe, Wabash, or any other rail-
road system is earning snch money

he must obey his wife implicitly for
two weeks or go to the workhouse

Jansen readily consented to the ar
rangement. glad to get of so easily.
Mrs. Jansen told the court her hus-
banl was tyrannical and had threat
ened to strike her. but above all. he
persisted In doing just the opposite of
what she told him. Mrs. Jansen was
instructed to inform the court IL her
husband should fail to live up to the
