STEEL MEN GET FORECAST
OF COMMISSIONS VIEWS.

PITTSBURG, Oct. GIT is an
nounced here that important inter-
ests in the steel trade nave received
advices that an understanding has
been reached with regard to higher
freight rates, whereby the Interstate
Commerce Commission will permit the
various railroads to advance tariffs to
the extent of one-half of the rates
specified in the applications. 1t is UNI
derstood here hat the decisions of the
commission in detail will be made pub
lie early in February.
As a result the railroads are ex-
pected to become heavy purchasers
of steel. IT is believed that while
formal orders will not be placed in the
near future large orders will be given
in February.

SUPREME COURT so HOLDS
In Deciding Test Case High Tribunal
Declares Penalty Is Not Pro-
vided by Statute on Which
State Sued.

Madison.-The twenty-odd life in
surance companies which left the
state following the enactment of
laws which in their judgment prevent
ed them from doing business in Wis
consin profitably, need not make any
reports to the state insurance COM
missioner. Such will be the effect OF
the decision of the supreme court in
the case brought by the department
against the Columbian National Life
Insurance Company, a test case to
decide this question.
The state brought suit to collect a
penalty of $500 day as provided for
under section 1854, revised statutes.
A total of over $11, 200 was involved.
The supreme court holds that section
1854 cannot be made to apply to Sec
ton 1953N, revised statutes, the sec
ton dealing specifically with the filing
of reports to the state insurance de-
partment.
This section provides for no penalty
and the court holds that section 1854
provides for a penalty for failure to
comply with the insurance laws in
general. If the legislature had SO de-
sired it could have added penalty
provision to section 1953N, but fail
ing to do so, the court holds that for
that reason the action of the state
is to be dismissed

AS an indication of the force of the
crusade against tuberculosis, the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis, in bull
letin issued recently points to the fact
that while 53.5 per cent. of the ex-
penditures for tuberculosis in 1909
were made from public resources, ap-
preparations made for 1910 indicate
that over rs per cent. of the money
to be spent this year will be from fed
eral, state, city and county funds. In
1909, out of the $S,1SO,621.5O spent for
the prevention and treatment OF tu-
berculosis, S4,362,750.03 was spent
from public money, and S3,S17, S71.47
from funds voluntarily contributed
For the carrying on of state, federal
and municipal tuberculosis work in
1910, over 100000 has been appro-
priated. OF this sum, the state legis-
latures have granted $4,100,000, the

''As there has been some misunder-
standing in regard to the relations of
the authorities of the University of
Wisconsin to Miss Emma Goldman on
her recent visit to Madison, 1 desire
to make the following statement in
regard to the facts" said President
Charles r. Van Hise of the University
of Wisconsin.
THE university authorities had
nothing whatever to do with Miss
Goldman's coming to Madison. None
of her meetings were held in build
ings over which the university author
tiles have any control. None of the
university authorities have taken any
action which can fairly be construed
as approving Miss Goldman's doc
trineS.
I'm view of these facts a great in
Justice is done the university by the
implication that the university au-
thorities sympathize with or give en-
enlargement to the doctrines advo-
