over his right eye. where his forehead

A slight fracture of the frontal bone

THE ANTHRACITE
CASES COMING
Brief Filed by One Defend
ant Today and Cases Set
For Early Hearing

Washington. Oct. 3.-The legal con-
test in the supreme court of the Unit
ed States over the antitrust proceed
ings against the principal Pennsyl-
vania anthracite coal carrying rail-
roads and coal owning companies
opened today in earnest when the
Temple Iron company. one of the de-
PENDANTS filed a brief presenting its
side of the controversy. Oral argu-
ments of the case are expected to take
place shortly after court convenes next
Monday.
The Temple Iron company became
involved in the case as result OF the
Reading company. the Lehigh Valley
Railroad company, the Central Rail-
road company of New Jersey. the
Delaware. Lackawanna and Western
Railroad company. the Erie Railroad
company and the New York. Susque-
ham and Western Railroad company.
purchasing its stock and the Temple
Iron company in turn purchasing
eight collieries of Simpson and Wat
kins. independent operators and the
United States circuit court for Eastern
Pennsylvania in which the case was
begun, found that only the Temple
Iron company violated the law.
The government claims that the
purchase of the Simpson and Watkins
collieries was made at an eXorbitant
price and was planned for the purpose
of preventing independent operators
from building a new railroad from the
coal fields to tide-water. The gov
ernment charges that the defendants
intended to shut out competition in
the transportation of anthracite coal
and the sale thereof.
In the brief today this was denied
and il was declared that the transac-
tions were for the purpose of retain
ing to the carriers the tonnage of the
Simpson and Watkins collieries they
then enjoyed. "heyond the hazard of
a threatened. or supposedly threatened
diversion"
One point particularly emphasized
in the brief is that the projected road
was an intra-state road and nothing
else and If it were assumed that the
purchase of the colleries
defeated its construction. the purchase
did not have any effect upon interstate
trade or commerce. 1t is argued that
Simpson and Watkins were not the
principal supporters of the projected
road.
The brief declares the governments
case rests solely on the Thought and
purpose" of the transactions. In this
it is argued that more
to violate the law is not
because you cannot pun

JEWS HOPE FOR
BETTER TREATY
New Russian Ambassador
May Have Power to Re-
wise Treaty of 1882

washington, Oct. 3-Baron Rosen,
the retiring Russian ambassador, left
washington last night for New York
to ship for Europe on his return to
ST Petersburg. where he is to assume
the portfolio of minister for foreign
affairs. The entire staff of the em-
passH accompanied the retiring am
oassador as far as New York.
NJ. Bakhmetieff, Baron Rosen's sue
cessor. is expected in Washington
within a fortnight. High hopes are
entertained by the Jewish element that
the new ambassador brings with him
powers conferred by his government
TO open negotiations with the state de-
partment for the revision of the old
treaty of 1882 between Russia and the
United States which will admit Jews
OF American birth or Russian Jews
naturalized in America to full and un-
restricted rights of travel and resi-
dence in Russia.
1t is said at the state department
that there has been no assurance on
this point from the Russian govern
ment Which has all along insisted that
the matter was one of internal econ
omy and that nothing could be done
to ameiiatorate the conditions of the
Jews of foreign birth seeking to enter
Russia until the Russian douma had
ject
There is some reason to believe.
however. that dependent upon the re-
port which Baron Rosen makes to his
government when he returns to st.
Petersburg, his successor in Washing
ton will be able to enter upon negotia-
tions for revision of the existing
treaty with an understanding that the
imperial council is preparing to make
a recommendation to the douma for a
change in the law to meet the desires
of the United States and other ma
tions that are seeking fair treatment
in Russia for Jewish citizens.
The Russian embassy in Washing
ton has gone as far as it dared to-
wards recognizing the rights of Ameri-
can Jews and has not hesltated to wise
passports issued by the state depart
ment to any reputable American Jew
who desired to visit Russia. But in a
question of residence it was found that
the internal laws of Russia prohibited
Jews from living outside of certain
we'll defined zones. When the United
States protested that the treaty Of 1882
in its first article recognized thn right
of Americans regardless of religious
tests. Russia replied that the tests
were not religious but racial
and pointed to the American Chi
nese exclusion legislation as iustifica-
ton for the Russian law excluding
persons of the Jewish race regardless
of nationality. 1t is hoped that the
mark the beginning of change In the
policy which would eliminate the pos
sibility of action by the American con-
gress in the direction of abrogating the
existing treaty between Russia and
America.
