WASHINGTON, Dec. with the hope
of impressing upon the Sixty-second

the policy of an annual rivers and
harbors appropriation bill as adopted
by the last congress, the hackers OF
the waterways movement have nocKed

Harbors congress, which began three

Decision Is Final Step In Long Con.

ment Was Unex.
pected.

Washington, Dec. 6.-The supreme
court of the United States refused to
grant stay of the beef packers trial
In Chicago until the court would be
able to pass on the constitutional
question raised by the packers in
habeas corpus proceedings.
The packers are cited to appear at
once in the United States district
court at Chicago for trial on indict-
ments alleging criminal violations Of
the Sherman antitrust law The &C.
ton by the supreme court will per-
nit the trial to proceed.
The courts decision was the final
step in long legal contest to avoid
trial at this time.
Shortly before they were first cited
to appear for trial, Nov. 20, nine of
the indicted packers sought to have
the United States circuit court of Chi
cago release them from custody on
the ground that the Sherman anti
trust law under which they were in
dicted was unconstitutional as Grim.
inal measure, particularly in view of
the recent Interpretation of the law in
the Standard Oil decision.
The circuit court refused to release
them and an appeal was taken to the
supreme court.
Chief Justice White individually re-
fused to grant stay of trial until the
supreme court coulu review the pro-
ho ciro1it court r..
torneys for the beef packers asked
the full court to grant the stay and
to realese the defendants on bail.
Announcement of the courts deci.
sion in the case was somewhat I'M
expected. Ordinarily the court would
not have taken the matter under con-
sideration.

overland limited train, the Olympian,
was derailed at Java Junction, west of
her. The locomotive and every car
left the track in a deep cut just out
side the town, the three rear sleepers
turning over. John Foster, the con-
ductor, was the only person hurt, and
his injuries are slight. Spreading
rails are believed to have been re-
sponsible for the accident. An official
of the road says the fact that it was
a solid steel train prevented loss Of

WABASH EY. is REOcGAa.zED
FINANCIAL READJUSTMENT OF
RAILROAD DETERMINED,
Believed In Wall Street That Control
Of the Road Has Been Wrested
From the Goulds.

New York, Dec. 6.-"Financial re.
adjustment and reorganiza tion' of the
Wabash railroad was determined upon
at meeting of the directors. The an.
nouncement caused something of a
surprise, it having been generally be-
lieved that the reorganization plan of
the Wheeling and Lake Erie-Wabash
terminal roads would be accepted,
thereby materially reducing Wabash's
financial burden.
Winslow S. Pierce, once prominent
figure in all Gould projects, returned
to his early affiliations as chairman
of the Wabash board and reorganiza-
ton committee, succeeding e. T. JEFF
frey, who continues as director
Other new men on the board are Ed
win Hawley, who comes in not because
Of any interest in Wabash, but as a
practical railroad man; Robert Goelet
and Alvin w. Krech, president of the
Equitable Trust Co., which is trustee
of the first and refunding and extern
sion mortgages of the Wabash road.
One of the unexpected incidents of
the proposed reorganization is the
naming of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., as syn.
dictate managers. That firm owns the
greater part if not all of the $8,OO0,-
900 notes for which the Wabash is
guaranteed, but it's introduction into
the reorganized company is believed in
Wall street quarters to have some
deeper significance. Relations be-
tween Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and the
Goulds have not been especially friend
ly since the unexpected withdrawal Of
the bankers from Missouri Pacific fin
ancing early in the year.
Although one of the leading inter-
ests in the Wabash reorganization Is
authority for the statement that the
REIMBURSEMENT will not involve receiver
ship, that point is yet to be settled.
It will not be definitely decided until
those who are to assume control of the
property have made careful examin-
alton into it's physical and financial
condition.
Semi-annual interest on about SAL.
100000 Of four per cent refunding
bonds falls due Jan. ], 1912. Repre-.
sentatives Of the road say every pro.
vision to meet this interest has been
made and the recent course of the
bonds in the stock market reflected
these assurances.
However, on the news of reorganiza
lion, the bonds as we'll as the common
and preferred shares, broke sharply
with only partial recovery. Dealings
In the bonds we're unusually heavy
constituting the feature of trading in
that division Of the market.
Conjecture as to the future of Wa
bash became rife as soon as announce
ment of reorganization was published
1t is generally believed in financia
circles that control of the property has
been wrested from the Goulds and the
fact that Chairman Pierce occupies g
similar position with the Western
Maryland, once Gould line, but nov
owned by the Rockefellers, gave rise
to the thought that it might be &C
Quired by these interests.

series Of enactments dealing with

Maintenance of aims houses" and

state to which the masses had fallen
in the miscalled SMerrie England"
Petty offences against property
increased amazingly both in number
and boldness, even though the death
penalty was invoked for the pettiest
larceny. T his of course availed
nothing In the face Of an irresis-
tible economic necessity no human
enactment however terrific has the
slightest force. To steal pen north
meant day more of life, but to re-
frain from theft meant fer many, the
ditch by the roadside.
How many English vagrants in
those days must have said to them
selves, at any rate Til die with q
full belly" Most of the vagrancy
and much of the crime against prop
erty can be shown to have had it's
inception in the wool legislation of
Edward the fourth. and every sub
sequent restraint on the freedom of
necessities made matters worse, un-
til at, last the eyes of the people
were opened, and under the leader
ship of Golden they threw down the
bars and let the food of the whole
world flow freely in to feed the Eng
lish people. With bound England
sprang at once to the foremost place
among nations and crime decreased.

Iopenly Admitted the necessity Of

Then will crime be at its ebb.
