braska Fights for 2-Cent Fare.
Lincoln. Neb.. Feb. 1s.-The states
side of the two cent act and the maxi
mum commodity act was heard again.
The attorney general is attempting to
lay a foundation for a complete de-
struction of the position of the Rock
Island, which has attacked the validity
of the acts, but in doing this he is
not using large material. The founda-
ton is being built like a coral reef,
hundreds of little facts being adduced,
" hicf, separately, might not be of much
consequence. When the thousand and
more details are mortared together,
however, the attorney general and the
men who have aided him in the pre-
paration of his case expect to abso-
lutely destroy the contentious of the
road and leave the two cent act and
the Aldrich act in unimpaired force
and operation.
The Rock Island. which is merely
leading the fight for the other roads in
terested, has contended that the divis-
ion of expense for state and interstate
business should be on revenue basis
1t has also commended that it costs
from four to eight times as much to
haul freight within the state as 1t does
interstate shipments.
Both OF these contentious the state
Is preparing to demolish. The theory
of the state as to the proper basis for
apportioning expense between state and
interstate business has not been an
nounced. That will appear later. Right
at present, however, the Witnesses for
the state are showing that it actually
costs less for the Rock Island to han
die it's state passenger business than
it's interstate and that it costs only
very little more to haul freight locally.
These assertions are based on the work
that has been in progress in the state
railway commission ever since the pres
ent litigation was begun.
AS soon as the state has presented
it's case and the plaintiff roads have
completed their cross examination
briefs will be prepared which will pre-
sent the entire matter in zuccinct form.

THREE CENT FARE AT LAST.
Fight Begun Fifteen Years Ago il
Cleveland Is Ended

Cleveland o., Feb. 1s.-Turning out
to vote in a bowling blizzard the people
of Cleveland ended the fight for low
street car fares begun Is years ago and
latterly made famous by Tom L. John
son in his four terms as mayor. The
new franchise proposed by Judge Rob-
ert w. Taylor Of the federal court, was
approved in referendum election by a
majority of 800. the largest majority
ever given to a public measure in
Cleveland.
The basis of the franchise is that
street car service under control of the
city must be furnished by the Cleve-
land railroad company at cost plus 6
per cent return to the stockholders on
their investment.
For the first eight months. the fare
will be 8 cents with penny charge for
a transfer, this fixed rate being made as
a test. The maximum rate of fare all
lowable during the term of the grant
% years-is 4 cents cash or seven
tickets for 25 cents.
A street railway commissioner to be
paid out of the company's earnings acts
as the adviser of the city in the regula-
ton Of services and fares and is given
access to the company's books.

MCPHERSON HEARS q. p. RUMOR.
Additional Train Service in Central
Kansas Planned.

Mcpherson, Feb. 18.-There is an
unofficial rumor that Mcpherson may
get the service of another passenger
train, beside the Missouri Pacific pas
senger that will be put on about
March 1. This time it is the Union
Pacific.
Up to the present time Mcpherson
has had the service of two trains on
that road daily. A passenger leaves
Mcpherson at 1920 in the morning,
returns at noon as mixed train, go
ing north as such in the afternoon
and returning in the evening as a pas
senger.
Owing to the fact that the other
roads are making such a strenuous
effort to secure both the freight and
passenger traffic, out of Mcpherson,
the Union Pacific is waking up, to the
fact that it can present to the people
not only excellent accommodations to
the north part of the state. but also
to make connections with long dis
lance trains on their main line at Sa-
lima.
Rumor has it that they will put on
an additional passenger train to run
between Mcpherson and Salina. This
will give the Mcpherson and Salina
branch the service of a freight and
two passenger trains and would make
ideal service for the people of Nc
Pherson county.

THE RIGHTS OF MAIL CLERKS.
Claim for Injuries Received in a Col
Iision Is Sustained.

Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 1s.-That men
in the employ of the United States
government mail service have the
same rights upon railroad trains as
other passengers, and that railroad
companies are bound to exercise the
same care as regards their protection
from injury or accident, the supreme
court handed down an opinion in the
case of w. E. Barker against the Chi
cago, Peoria and st. Louis Railway
company.
Barker, who was mail clerk be-
tween Springfield and ST. Louis, re-
ceived injuries as a result of COLI
sion, and sued the road for $4,000.
The case was tried in the Sangamon
county circuit court, where the COM
pany set up the defense that a mail
carrier was not a passenger and was
not entitled to recover. Judge Creigh-
ton held that mail clerk was pas
senger and jury gave a verdict in
the sum of $4,000, on which Judgment
was later rendered for the sum of
$4,000. The case was taken to the
appellate court, where the decision of
the Sangamon county court was sus-
tanned. From there the company ap-
pealed to the supreme court, which
up held the findings of the lower
courts
