New York, Feb. r.-The question Of
competition between the Union and
Southern Pacific railroads for freight to
and from points in California was taken
up again to-day before Examiner VII
liams in the suit to dissolve the so-called
Hartman merger. 1t is part Of the gov
ernments contention that such competi-
ton existed prior TO the merger.
John A. Monroe, freight traffic manager
for the Union Pacific. with headquarters
at Omaha. testified He said that aside
from the prohibitively longer haul to San
Francisco via Portland there was the
fact that any inducements, such as
change of rates, which would have been
necessary to attract business. would have
been suicidal. since the Southern Pacific
would have retaliated by DETECTING busi-
ness from the Union Pacific TO the Den
yer and Rio Grande, and could have done
so In such bulk as to have brought the
Union Pacific TO terms.
Boat Route TO Cut Rates,
Counsel for the railroad asked Mr.
Monroe about the suggestion that had
been made that the boat route between
Portland and san Francisco was used as
club by the Union Pacific TO get better
terms from the Southern Pacific. The
witness replied that since the arrange
ments between the two roads prior 10
the merger had always been satisfac-
tory. there had never been an occasion
10 consider the use OF a club, but that
/ II the Union Pacific had used the boat
route as q weapon il would have turned
out TO be a boomerang. since the South
ern Pacific could have DETECTED from the
Union Pacific a much greater percentage
Of traffic than could have been gained
through the Portland route.
Mr.. Severance. Of counsel for the gov
ernment, wanted 20 know Il the rate war
would not have caused very heavy loss
10 the Southern Pacific on the tonnage
over the Sunset Route. and so have beer
a club IN the hands Of the Union Pacific
Mr.. Monroe replied that while such would
have been the case. the situation would
have provided the Southern Pacific with
a much heavier weapon against tht
Union Pacific. 1T was a weapon" h
| said. ''in the same sense as q razor viii
which I might commit suicide"
Couldn't you slash the other mar
hrst?" asked Mr.. Severance, and the re
ply was. Yes, he'd be cut and I'd bt
! dead"

AUTO RACER
IS KILLED

Atlanta, Ca, Nov 2.-Al Livingstone,
known to enthusiasts of the automo-
bile racing game as the dirt track
king died in a hospital here last
night as the result Of injuries received
at the Atlanta motor speedway yester-
day afternoon, when he was hurled
from the big National racing car which
he was driving in practice.
Livingstone was going at what was
estimated a 90-mile-an-hour clip when
suddenly he was seen to rise into the
air % feet or more and fall face down
ward in fropt of his cal, which had
whirled completely around on the
track after having smashed the rear
right wheel to pieces. Other drivers
who were on the track at the time
went at once to Livingstone's assist
ance. They found him unconscious.
One side Of his skull was crushed and
he was otherwise mangIed and bruised
The injured man was hurried to a
hospital, but he died at 1926 ocioeh
without having regained conscious
ness.
Livingstone had been ordered from
the track before he started on his
final ride in order that workmen might
make some necessary repairs to the
speedway in preparation for the races
which begin Thursday, continuing
three days. He asked, however, to be
allowed to make one more trip in or
der that he might try to beat the time
made by Howard Wilcox, one of his
teammates, ON a lap just completed by
the latter This leave was granted
him, and he was making splendid time
when the accident occurred Il was
Witnessed by the drivers of number
Of cars and by those IN the grandstandt
including Liyingstone's wife and sister.

RHEUMATISM
WEAK KIENEYs & THIN BLOOD

Not only is the blood the great
nourishing source Of our systems, but
equally as important is its work Of
removing the waste of oxodized tis-
sues which have been consumed in
force and bodily heat. This waste Is
filtered out through the kidneys.
When, however, the kidneys become
weak and unable TO perform their
regular duties, the waste is allowed
to remain in the circulation, soon
forming uric acid which destroys the
greater portion Of nourishing elements
Of the blood and leave it weak and
acrid. This imperfect blood deposits
into the different muscles and joints
the uratic impurity with which it is
contaminated Then the pains and
aches Of Rheumatism commence. The
gritty formation which uric acid
causes collects in the joints and pro
duces the aches and stiffness which
always accompany the disease. Like
wise the muscles are coated and lose
their elasticity, while the continual
irritation to the nerves produces swell
ing and Inflammation Of the flesh.

Pedestrians AND MOTOR CARS

PEDESTRIANS AND MOTOR CARS
Editor FL Paso Herald
Speaking of the right of automobiles
and other vehicles IN the public streets.
you say in a recent issue the streets
belong to pedestrians and vehicles are
allowed to use the streets only by suf-
ferance."
I haven't at hand any Texas decisions
on this point but in a new York case
and in another recently decided in a
Pennsylvania court Of appeals, the court
held rather the opposite view.
In the New York case a man getting
off q street car saw an automobile COM
ing in the street. Now this man prob
ably believed with The Herald that the
streets belong to pedestrians" and that
vehicles had no right to use them ex-
cept on sufferance. At any rate, he
started deliberately across in front OF
the motor car. was struck and injured
In the language of the court che placed
himself in a position of danger expect
ing the driver (Of the autOmObile) 10
avoid p collision. Even if he has shown
any negligence on the part of the
driver, he has certainly completely
failed to show an absence Of cOntribu-
tory negligence en- his own part" The
case was decided against the plaintiff
In the case of Kaufman VS.. Nelson.
in front of an automobile, whit, she
saw approaching some so or 60 feet
away She was struck and Injured,
sued for damages and got Judgment in
the lower court, which was reversed by
the supreme court
The supreme court in reviewing the
case, and after dwelling upon the duties
of drivers of vehicles TO exercise eau
ton said: But others are not relieved
from the obligation of attention and
care There rested also upon the plain
tiff the duty to look where she was go
ing and not TO rush blindly into danger.
The duty to look and TO exercise care
and vigilance rests at all times upon
everyone in the use OF the street. An
instruction that relieves the plaintiff
from the duty of looking and holds
him responsible only in case he saw,
cannot be approved
In an Indiana case (SS y. E, go the
court said: ''The rights of pedestrians
and vehicles upon the highway are
equal, and drivers are required to ex-
erciSe such care and prudence as the
circumstances demand in proportion to
the danger or risk in each case" In
this case the motor car seems TO have
been on the wrong side OF the street,
and verdict was rendered for the pedes-
trian who was injured and il is there
fore TO be presumed that the above Is a.
strong a presentation of the right OF
the pedestrian as can be made
Whatever the law may be. Mr.. Editor.
I venture TO say that the man who de-
liberately walks in front OF q moving
vehicle expecting the driver to protect
him from injury. will get mighty little
satisfaction in our courts.
Enforce the law on scorchers but
don't publish misleading statements
