THE EMPLOYERS
LIABILITY LAW
A Decision on the Question
Is Expected From the
Supreme Court

Washington, Oct. 5.-A decision by
the supreme court of the United
States on the constitutionality Of the
so-called empowers liability law Of
1908 is expected October 16. Several
cases raising the constitutionality Of
this law were argued last spring and
have been under consideration all
summer. It is generally believed that
one of the justices has prepared an
opinion in the CAKES and that his as
sociates will have lapproyed it in time
for publication on, the first day Of
business in the term. Because the
first employers liability law passed
by congress was declared uncon-
stitutional by the supreme court and
because the court has taken so long
to consider the present cases the opin-
ion is awaited with much suspense.

yellow Hand (Nah-hat He yo-ve), which was mar
ratorially depicted a modern Goliath Of Gath and
David episode; the Indians side, the Fifth
cavalry the other, with Buffalo Bill and Yellow
Hand battling to the death between the lines. The
facts are that when Cody started out with Colonel
Carr and the Fifth cavalry in 1863 he did not
know foot of the country and couldn't tell a
Cheyenne from a shaved-head Usage On that trip
Old Man Otterby and Ed Geary along as guides
and interpreters but they threw up their hands in
disgust when Colonel Carr made Cody his main
scout
when Cody and some of the best shots Of the
Fifth cavalry out scout they came across
Yellow Hand and little band of his Indians which
they attacked with the result that Yellow Hands
pony shot and he wounded. His band rode away
and he was quickly shot to death by the soldiers
