be legal, inasmuch as 1T was not
made directly TO the railroad com
pany."
EFFECT OF RULING.
The effect OF this ruling, unless it
is set aside by the supreme court will
permit any railroad in the country,
if it desires to discriminate in favor
of certain shippers, to do so simply
by organizing an investment company,
through which the payments TO the
favored shippers can be made. In
other words, the old system of T.
batting, say those who have studied
the decision, would be restored in the
full bloom of all its old evils.
This decision by the commerce
court, coming on the heels of the
one setting aside the ruling of the
interstate commerce commission that
railroads shall not charge more for
a short than for long haul, has
stirred the resentment of what is
openly predicted will be a majority
of the members of congress. and the
fight to do away with the commerce
court is almost sure to begin on
the opening day of congress.
FOR ABOLITION OF COURT.
Judge Thetus w. Sims, the mill
tant congressman from Tennessee,
already has a bill prepared for the
abolition of the court and he Will
ask his democratic colleagues in the
house to pass this bill when con-
gress cOnyenes. Mr.. Sims was one
of those who vigorously opposed the
creation of the court in the first
place and as he is conceded to be
one of the most thorough students
Of interstate commerce law in con-
gress, it is regarded as more than
probable that he will have an active
part in leading the fight to dethrone
the judges of the commerce court.

Special Correspondence of The Argus.)
Washington, Nov. ga well de-
fined movement is on foot looking to
the adjustment of the commerce
court. The same members Of con
gress who bitterly opposed the crea-
ton Of the court in the first place have
been reinforced by many others. who,
when the law to authorize the court
was under discussion, either were in
different, or, at most, willing TO give
the new court a chance to demonstrate
its usefulness.
The court has been in operation
something over a year, and in every
important case it has decided, its de-
cision has been in favor OF the rail
roads and against the people.
THE PARTICULAR DECISION.
The particular decision which has
crystalized opposition to the further
operation of the court was the recent
ruling reversing the verdict of the in
terstate commerce commission that
the Chicago Junction railroad, con-
trolled by the beef trust. has paid a
rebate TO Pfaelzer & Sons, a packing
firm, in the form Of a $4,000 donation
toward the improvement of the pack
ing company's plant. This money was
actually paid by an investment com
pany owned by the owners of the rail
road, and was paid TO induce the pack
ers 10 build on land owned by the
same owners. The purpose of the
payment was to insure larger ship
ments from the packing concern over
The lines OF the railroad.
The interstate commerce commits
sion held that the payment was OBJ
viously a violation of the Sherman law
and constituted a heavy rebate.
The commerce court, in reviewing
the decision, declared the payment TO

And have a little change to spare.
Oh, no, one cannot do It now!

But now the cheap and early lay

They must command a fancy price
Or they are put to rest on ice.
The early butter came to town.
AS grass came up the price came down
