MANY BARS N MEMPHIS
trOpOlia Openly Defying the Law
Of the State

Memphis. Tenn. Oct 2s.-The clash
between the federal and state liquor
laws will be decided within a few days
by Federal Judge Mccall. who has been
hearing the plea for a perpetual in
junction restraining saloonkeepers in
the city from operating under federal
license when state license denied. A
temporary injunction is now in force.
and until it is dissolved. a, least. the
ia saloons named in the Injunction
must remain closed. They have been
closed for a number OF days past.
while a number Of other saloons which
are not named in the injunction pro-
ceedings 90 merrily on with the SELL
ing of their wares. despite the state
law to the contrary.
The plaintiffs contend that the local
and state officials will not heed their
complaint. and thus an appeal to the
federal courts is necessary. The de-
fense alleges. and is supported in It's
contention by the officials. that the
state and local authorities have done
their part. and that it is not matter

ATTACKING THE tLK|NS ACT
In ResistinE the Law to Create m
lnterstafe COmmeree Tribunal

New York. ~ Y, Oct 29.-It has
been decided that the railroads and
express companies of the .ntire eoun-
try will unite in an attack through
the courts on the Mann -Elkins act
passed by Congress at its last session.
providing for an interstate commerce
court TO which railroads and shippers
alike may appeal.
This decision was reached yesterday
after a conference Of railroad lawyers
from all parts of the United States.
which has been in session here for
several days under the Craftsmanship
Of Col. Henry L. Stone, general coun-
sci for the Louisville and Nashville
road.
The exact course of procedure to be
followed is in the hands of a COM
mittee Of lawyers to be appointed by
Colonel Stone 1t is supposed the
roads will attack the law the
ground Of unconstitutionality. 1t seems
there is little real objection to the
newly established court of commerce.
But there is strong opposition to the
extension of the powers of the inter-
state commerce commission.

MARRIED LADIES MAY

Washington. D. c.. Oct. 29.-Married
women in the government employ who
have husbands able to support them
will be in danger of losing their po-
sitions, if a recommendation which is
about to be made by the various de-
partmental economy committees is ia
vOrably received.
Many unmarried women. who have
lost their positions through the intro
duction Of recent economics. in MAX
ing applications for reinstatement
have suggested that they be given
places now held by married women
whose husbands are able TO support
them. 1t is understood such a recon-

There is only one way to cure deaf

inflamed condition Of the mucous lin

this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing.
and when it is entirely closed. deaf
ness is the result, and unless the in
fammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to it's normal condition.
