EFFECT ON RAILROADS.
Expected They Will Now Organize
Separate Coal Companies.

Intense interest was manifested by the
Interstate commerce commission in the
decision rendered by the Supreme Court
on the commodities clause. The decision
did not come as a surprise. because It
had been anticipated. on the basis of the
debate in Congress. that the court would
hold that ownership of the stock or bonds
of coal companies did not constitute a vo-
lation of the act.
No member of the interstate commerce
commission. in advance of the reading
of the opinion of the court, would ex-
press an opinion to Its effect. The
concrete situation is that only two of the
anthracite roads own. operate and mar
ket their own coal. 1t Is regarded under
the decision of the court the law applies
to those roads-the Lehigh Valley and the
Delaware. Lackawanna and Western. The
effect Of the decision. II is believed will
be 10 induce those lines 10 organize sep
ara;e coal companies and conduct their
operation through them. because the mere
holding Of stock in such coal companies
is held by the court not to be a viola
lion Of the law.

WORCESTER CURES HIMSELF
FOUNDER OF EMMANUEL MOVE

Physician Who Attended Him Gives
Great Credit to Psychopathic
influence Of Patients Mind.

BOSTON, May 3.-The Rev. DIR. Ell
wood Worcester, rector OF Emmanuel
Church and founder Of the so-called EN-
manuel movement for cure by psyche
therapy in conjunction with medicine. Is
rapidly recovering his health.
The most striking feature OF it all IS
the testimony Of the physicians and sur
geons attending him that DR.. Worcester
rapid recovery from an ailment that
would have e--~ade most men helpless in-
valids has been due, in the major part, to
his own efforts-to his faith in himself
and his faith in the doctrines which he
has been preaching.
Last November DR.. Worcester injured
his spine In attempting to. lift heavy
weight" said his physician. THE fact
is, he tried to lift a heavy trunk and
dislocated one of the smaller bones at
the base Of the spine.
THE injury was excruciatingly painful.
and to most men would have meant inn
mediately an important surgical opera
tiOn There was pressure on the spinal
cord and intense suffering. but DR.. Wor-
cester hung on. 1t was magnificent eX-
hibition OF grit.
IN response to our inquiries, when We
saw that something was wrong with
him-We thought 1t was overwork-he told
US the circumstances. We advised him to
retire and be treated.
"He said that he would simply SO
through Lent, but agreed that II he was
able to do that he would take rest
after Easter. He made a grand, game
fight.
'After Easter We made a small opera

is now practically cured
do you consider that DR.. Worcester
has helped to cure himself?" was asked.
..As a medical man and the physician
in charge during the last few weeks.
do say that, and unreservedly," was the
reply.
would you say half of the cure. or
what proportion might be attributed to
your surgical skill. what to the psychic
influences drawn by the doctor himself?"
1T Is impossible. obviously. to say what
we're the proportions. I know that were
It anybody else and were another patient
to have depended wholly on our medical
skill We should hardly have had the
happy termination Of our efforts that has
resulted In this case"

SURPRISE To LAWYERS.
Counsel for Railroads Decline to Dis.
cuss Supreme Court Decision.


PHILADELPHIA. Pa May 3.-The de-
cision of the United States Supreme Court
In the commodities clause was a surprise
to lawyers and others in this city inter-
ested in the case. 1t had been con-
fdeItly expected that the court would
affirm every point in the lower court s
decision. which was written by Judge
Gray and concurred In by Judge Dallas.
Judge Burlington dissented from the MI
jority decision. Judge Dallas has since
retired from the bench, having reached
the retiring age.
1t is not yet clear what the Reading
companys position is under the decision
Of the Supreme Court. While the Reading
company was made defendant when the
suit was brought against the coal-carry-
ing railroads. its case was passed over on
certain legal grounds by agreement Of
counsel for the government and the de-
PENDANTS when argument was heard last
June.
j. ID. Campbell. counsel for the Reading
company, said he would not discuss the
decision until he had read il. Neither
would he express an opinion as to what
further action will be taken.
john G. johnson of this city, who made
the principal argument for the railroads.
and Francis I. Gowen. head Of the Penn
sylvania railroad legal department also
declined to discuss the case. Former At
torney General Bonaparte and L. Allison

sistants to the Attorney General. argued
