times. Ill health resulted in RiXey's
trial being postponed from time to

fed himself with a brilliant array of
legal talent The news a week or so

and shipped to an asylum did not come
as a big surprise.

Of the defunct Virginia Safe Deposit and

WILL Be BUSY TERM
Intricate Questions to PerpIex
Supreme Court.
AWAIT IMPORTANT RULINGS
More Than Twenty Cases Involving
Interstate and Intrastate Com
merce Will Be Argued.

Many intricate questions of interstate
and intrastate commerce promise to per-
pick the Supreme Court of the United
States during the first month Of its APP
preaching session. More than twenty
cases involving such problems have
been advanced by the court for hearing
as soon after the opening of the term
as possible. and the decisions are await
ed with concern among transportation
interests.
Two exceeding hard-fought orders of
the interstate commerce commission will
come up for review probably within the
first two weeks of the term. The extent
of the powers exercised by the commits
sion is challenged in both instances.
The first OF these involves the so-called
grain elevator cases." A long sefies of
these cases is expected to bring forth
a decision from the Supreme Court on
the much disputed question as to whether
the interstate commerce commission pos
sesses the power to prohibit railroads
from paying to operators of elevators all
compensation for "elevating grain in
transit. The commission issued orders
embracing such a prohibition.
Missouri river cities are principally. af-
fected by the orders. and the boards of
trade from these points have Joined with
the railroads terminating there to test
the validity of the commissions action.
The United States circuit court for west
ern Missouri has decided that the COM
mission is without the power it sought
to exercise.
Rates on Lumber.
The second order of the commission to
be questioned will be that providing for
the reduction of the rates on lumber from
the northwestern states to cities in the
Mississippi valley and east to what they
were before November l. 1907. In this
case is involved the point of whether the
federal courts may examine an order of
the interstate commerce commission only
when it is urged that it is confscatory in
its operation. or also when it is urged
that the commissions rates are in them
selves unjust and unreasonable.
Another issue that will he fought out
early in the term Is whether the stock
yards in the big cities are common car
riers within the meaning of the inter-
state commerce laws The question arose
in suit by the government to collect a
penalty prescribed by the twenty-eight-
hour law regulating the care of live stock
during interstate transportation. This ac
ton was brought against the ST. Louis
National stock Yards The United States
circuit court of appeals for the seventh
circuit held that the stock yards was not
a common carrier. and approved a. ver-
dict in favor of the yards.
Transportation of Sheep.
One case pressed by the government
against the Baltimore and Ohio South
western Railroad Company is expected to
lead to a decision as to whether rail-
road may transport sheep through state
into another state when the state through
which the sheep pass is under quaran-
