AUTO MEN. NOT PROTECTED
CANNOT INSURE AGAINST SUITS
FOR DAMAGES.
Auditor Bleakly Holds That Such
Insurance Would Encourage
Reckless Driving. ".

Des Moines, June 23.-Auditor OF
State Bleakley in a recent decision
has settled the question as to wheth-
er or not liability companies may
write liability insurance protecting
automobile owners from suits result
ing from injuries inflicted by their
machines. The auditor maintains
that the practice is contrary to pub
lie policy in that it encourages care.
less driving. He directs that llabil-
ity insurance may be taken to cover
only such automobiles as are used
in transporting merchandise.
Under subdivision S, section 17O6
of the code, liability companies are
permitted to write employers liabili
ty insurance. Through the privii
ege thus accorded them, about ten
companies operating in the state
assumed that they were permitted
under the law to write any kind OF
liability insurance, and began issu
ing policies to automobile owners,
which protected them from being
held for damages resulting from &C.
cidents inflicted by their machines.
Acts of careless chauffers elected
considerable criticism of the plan
and resulted in the auditors examin.
alton and decision regarding the
right of the companies to issue such
policies Under the decision the poi
icies already issued win be allowed
to stand till their expiration. The
further issuance of policies of this
nature will result in the companies
forfeiting their licenses

Austria has had her way in the contro-
versy with Servia. The latter was aban-
doned altogether by the other powers, in
Guiding Russia, on whom she had de-
pended in her extremity. The differ
enees resulted over Austris's recent coup
in taking Bosnia and Herzegovina, over
which Servia exercised some claim, and
annexing the PROVINCES outright. con-
gress OF powers was suggested to consider
this and other recent developments in
the Balkans, but Austria would not sub
NIT her case unless it was agreed that her
own action should be accepted as beyond
its scope. Servia prepared vigorously for
war, but fruitless struggle appeared to
be the only prospect for her and she has
acceded with much bitterness of feeling.

via and head of the war party, has re-

Col1on States League
NIL BEGIN to P>ucuce
For Com1Mg Season

JACKSON, Miss, March 17.-Trans-
portation is being sent to the players
who will compose the six teams in the
Cotton States league this year. and
the men have been instructed to re-
port for spring practice on next Mon
day.
Owing to the fact that the opening
of the season will be. somewhat later
this year than usual it is not likely
that the practice work will be delayed
by cold or unfavorable weather. The
managers will have just four weeks in
which to get their teams in shape, and
this is regarded as sufficient time in
Southern climate.
President P. s. Merrill is now ar
ranging with Mike Finn, manager of
theh Little Rock team, and the most
noted schedule maker in the South, to
arrange the playing schedule. Mikes
task this time will be one of consid-
cradle difficulty, owing to the fact that
the circuit is not so compact as in
former seasons. incidentally, this is
going to require the expenditure of a
larger portion of the gate receipts for
railroad mileage, but the formation OF
the circuit is the best that could be

Advices received here state that the

in time for the opening date. The gen.
eral belief around the circuit is that
the Algiers team will play in New Or
leans on dates when the Pelicans are
away from home, although no authori-
tative announcement to this effect has
been made.
Owing to the fact that her reserve
list was awarded to Algiers, Columbus
is going to have hard time perfecting
organization, but the men who COM
pose the organization at that place
are game sports, and, with the Vicks-
burg reserve list as a nucleus, it will
not be a difficult matter to get team
organized. Alexandria gets the Gulf
port reserve list, and it is believed
that all of the players on the Gulf

waive their right to demand releases
