 By the certiorari the Court of Ap- peals will be ordered to submit to the Supreme Court the records and pro- gress of the Alabama rate case, that the big court at Washington may re- view and determine, finally, the legal ity of Alabama's legisiative-made rates.
 If the Supreme Court of the United States holds with the Court of Appeals that phase of the case will be done with. and the scene of activity will be shifted again to the court of Judge Thomas c. Jones. The railroads will establish the new rates. The attorneys Akr the Railroad Commission will have to make answer to the supplemental bills filed by the attorneys for the railroads.
