He said: "At q vet recent date,
learned men, their eyes Oh the micro

among the various kinds Of living
creatures they had studied, war was
the rule; that when struggle ceased,
life ceased; and that, since more be-

world could feed, the destruction Of the
weakest was both D necessity and Il
condition of progress. Struggle, war,
violence, meant development; peace
meant decay. And bold generaliza-

er to adjust its tracks in the Durant
yards to permit the rival to cross on
grade at the point designated by the
M. 0. & G.,
Under the terms Of the order the
Missouri Oklahoma and Gulf is re-
quired to pay all costs of re-arsange-
ment Of the katy" tracks and m
making the crossing and for maintain
ing the crossing.
The order is not effective until the
M. 0. G. G. tenders the damages
agreed upon.
The commission refuses TO consid-
or the request of the Katy" to re-
Quire an overhead or an underground

er entertain such a proposition, as
the order made is for only a temper
airy crossing.
Under the order the two railroads
are required to maintain gates on the
streets adjacent to the crossing.
