HAAS AND PECKHAM FINED
ThSy Plead Guilty in Cotton Leak
Case.

Washington, June 24-Moses Haas. of
New York. and Frederick A. Peckham, of
Cincinnati, after fighting for five years in
dictments against them in the cotton leak
case in the Department of Agriculture, to-
day entered pleas of guilty to the count
in the Indictment charging conspiracy to
effect misconduct in office. On the recon-
mendation of the Department of Justice,
Justice Gould imposed fine of $500 on
Haas and 5000 on Peckham, which they
paid and were released from custody
The other indictments against them were
dropped. The lawyers for Edwin S.
Holmes, jr., the former associate statistf-
clan, were taken by surprise when HAAS
and Peckham pleaded guilty, and were not
prepared to say what course they would
take for their client. Holmes was tried in
1866 and the jury disagreed. 1t was hinted
from unofficial sources that the govern
ment would be satisfied with the same pun
ishment as was imposed on the other two
men.
Charges are still pending in the New
York courts against Theodore Fl. Price. the
cotton operator who was implicated in the
scandal, The indictment against him in
the District of Columbia was recently
quashed on a teGhnicality.

NO CONTROL IN ALASKA
Commerce Commission Without
Jurisdiction Over Railroads.

Washington, June 24-The Interstate
Commerce Commission announced in de-
cision handed down that it had no iuris-
diction or authority over carriers engaged
in the transportation of freight or passen-
gers in Alaska.
The question of Jurisdiction over Alaskan
railroads has been before the commission
for more than year. 1t is regarded as of
immense Importance. not only on account
Of the interests involved but because as
Commissioned Clements, in his dissenting
opinion. says. the refusal of the commits
sion to attempt to exercise authority over
the carriers in Alaska leaves those who
would appeal TO the commission for the ex-
ercise of such authority i'm Alaska no
means of getting the question before the
courts for authoritative determination
since there is no appeal to the courts from
q refusal of the commission to make an
order"
The commission holds that Alaska rs
not territory of the United States in the
sense in which the phrase is used in the
act to regulate commerce. The general rule
that special tribunal ought not to en-
large its jurisdiction by intendment, but
ought to exercise only the powers clearly
conferred by statute. applies with special
if not controlling force 10 the exercise by
the commission of jurisdiction in Alaska
IN view of the fact that under the act of
May IA. 1898, power to regulate the rates Of
railroads in Alaska was conferred on an
other branch of the government.
In announcing this opinion Commissioner
Harlan. for the majority, said: I'VE are
not unmindful of the fact that Congress
may readily confer that power upon US
under clear provision of law. if that has
been or is now it's desire
