ARE TIRED OF new SULTAN
Young Turks Fear Mehmed Is Under
Bad misunderstanding Public
Executions.

Constantinople, May 5. - Fearful
that Mehmed v. the new sultan of
Turkey, is too much under the influ-
ence of former Grand Vizier Kiarnll
Pasha and his reactionary party. the
Young Turks are already tentatively
discussing another change in rulers,
according to a we'll founded report
that spread through the city yester-
day.
The formal execution of the plot
ters of last months uprising began
yesterday morning in the Stanbou
quarter. Several of the soldier lead
ers were publicly shot and their civil
ian accomplices hanged in conspicu-
Gus places.
About a hundred have beeen SEN
fenced to death in Constantinople
alone, and a number in the provinces.
Thirteen were executed yesterday
morning.
The hangings were the most shock
ing ever seen in Constantinople, the
victims being suspended from gallows
that resembled tripods. There was no
drop, the victims being lifted from the
ground by pulleys and slowly stran-
gled to death.
The police took special pains to pro-
hibit the photographing of the grue-
some scenes and smashed cameras
wherever they found them.
Thousands witnessed the h%angings,
as the gallows were hoisted in the
open streets and in conspicuous
places.
Further evidence was found that
Abdul Hamid plotted the Adana mas
sacres. He sent a number of the pal
ace fusiliers to Adana, which started
the trouble.

Holds That Clause of Hep=

way FOR ROADS TO ESCAPE
Government Loses on All Points Except
in SustentatiOn of Prin.
ciple Involved.

Washington, May 5. - It has been
many a day since a decision Of the
Unied States supreme court has beer
received with as much interest as
was manifested yesterday in the de-
cision in what are known as the
commodities clause cases, affecting
the anthracite coal carrying railroads.
In a decision written by Justice
White the commodities clause of the
Hepburn law, which prohibits inter
state railroads from carrying oommod-
tiles manufactured, mined Or produced
directly or indirectly by the roads,
was declared constitutional. thus re-
versing the United States circuit court
at Philadelphia. The only dissenting
opinion was by Justice Harlan, who
stated that he did not follow the con-
clusion of the court on the point that
that the law does not prohibit the
railroad ownership of stock in com
modities-rroducing companies.
Can't Ship Stuff They Own.
Az S'ttS', II 10 HSlu lhal toil-
gress did rot transcend its ccnstitu-

is Favorable to Railroads.
The effect of the decision under eX-
listing conditions is favorable to the
railroads. and the government lost on
practically all points except in the
sustentation of the principal involved.
In holding that congress had not gone
beyond it's authority in enacting the
law. the court comedies the right to
regulate, and it is believed that if so
disposed congress might enlarge and
extend the scope of the provision.
Hence, while the railroads gain a prac-
teal victory. the government is not
confronted by a constitutional bar
from further acting in the direction of
control of the roads in the matter of
the shipment of their own commodi-
ties.

200 Dead in South.
Memphis, Tenn, May 4.-The latest
reports from the storm-swept districts
in the South place the number of dead
| at 200 and the number of injured at
over 700. Complete statistics will
probably show a death list of $50,
with nearly 1000 persons injured. At
least forty towns have been devas-
tated. The property loss will amount
o many million dollars.
Some SECTIONS in the pathway of the
storm have not yet been heard from,
and they will, in all probability, add
| their quota to the list of casualties
and of property loss. Tennessee bore
| the brunt Of the storm, and the cas-.
| ualties in that state are very heavy.

growing out Of the adverse decision
on the constitutionality of the Mis-

freight rates and prescribing a 2-cent
passenger rate for all railroads oper-

day when Representative A. r. Muir
ply of Missouri presented a resolu-
ton bringing serious charges against
Federal Judges Smith Mcpherson
and John E. Phillips of the Western
district of Missouri. who rendered the
decision, and asking an investigation
looking to their Impeachment.
Fishing Trip Mentioned.
The resolution charges that during
the litigation between the state and
the railroad companies the two judges
were the guests Of railroad lawyers
on a fishing trip, and that this asso-
citation affected their judgment ad-
versely to the state.
Other charges are made of failure to
attend arbitrary rules in court and I'm
justified criticisms of jury and coun-
sci during their occupancy of Office.
The speaker is directed by the res
olution to appoint a special commit
tee Of three members of the house to
investigate the charges made with a
view to impeachment of the two
judges. The speaker referred the res
olution to the committee on the jul
dietary. AS there is no such commit
tee at the present time, the charges
will go over to the December session
for consideration.
