FIGHT ON HEPBURN LAW.
Carmack Amendment Regarding Liza.

law. by which initial carriers of inter-
state commerce were made liable for
damages to a shipment even when occur

The point Is now urged that the car

for through rates i'm order to make the
initial carrier liable, and in cases where
there Is no such agreement 1t is claimed
the law would be confiscatory and un-
constitutional.
The present attack is made by the Nor

courts, in which it was held responsible

Of young desperadoes. and the man was
dragged from the house and into a field
some distance away. where he was soundly
beaten with hickory sticks and switches
1t has been reported that La Toilette
did not provide sufficient food for the
family, but friends of the man declare
that he has been taking good care Of
his wife and children. After being severe
" beaten by the whitecaps, La Toilette
was left in serious condition, suffering
from large welts and bruises all over his
body Before leaving the scene the ring
leader Of the crowd knelt down and Of
fered q prayer that La Toilette may re-

alone has aroused the resentment Of the

A hearing was held here today. and
nine Of the young men recognized by La

KINGS TRIP TO INDIA

LONDON, March % 1911
r OYALTY to the king is so ingrained
a characteristic of the English char
- acter that there will be little or no
expression given during the next twelve
months to the feeling that royalty is
. pretty expensive institution. after all.
And this despite the fact that the corona
ton. the investiture OF the young Prince
OF Wales and the trip of the king and
queen to India for the durbar promise
TO make an ugly hole in the British
purse.
Just how much the Indian trip will run
away with it Is impossible TO say, except
IN general way. An estimate OF s.. 800. :
600 would not be an excessive one, all
things considered, although a large part
OF that will come from Indian sources.
The present king has more appreciate
OF the value OF money than had his OPEN
handed father, and there probably will
be an effort TO keep the expenditure down
20 a reasonable figure. But at the same
time there are various large OUTLAWS that
cannot be avoided. considering the dignity
and position of the royaI travellers
The visit 10 India OF the late king when
Prince OF Wales. in 1915. gives some hint
OF the amount OF money that will prob
ably be burned when King George goes
TO receive the homage of his Indian sub
jects. The total cost of King Edward s
trip was $l,50O.OC0. But he was not king
and emperor. and there was no corona
ton durbar to suck up the golden SOW
ereigns. Parliament voted $:i1UoGO for
the general expenses of the trip, but Sir
Bartle Frere, who had the arrangements
In hand. protested that the amount would
hardly buy the presents IL was considered

He asked for SJ0O.OH. but parliament had
It's own ideas OF economy. and refused to
raise its donation. In the end SIR Bart 8
was compelled to go to Lord Northbrook
who induced the Indian treasury to yots
10000 toward the fund for the buyins
of presents.
Feeling in England ran pretty high
against the princes extravagances espe

HAVANA, April 5, 1911.
Although the presidential elections are
still nearly two years away, campaign
ing on behalf Of various candidates is
already active. Whether Gen. Gomez will
seek a second term is the most important
point at present. Backed as he is to
very considerable extent by public
sentiment. and with the support of the
army OF civil employees and the complete
control of the rural guard, the regular
army, the national police and the secret
police, there is little doubt that the presi-
dent can succeed himself If he wishes
Despite the fact that on more than one
occasion he has declared himself opposed
to a second term. his own organ, FL
Triunfo, continues to. advocate his re-
election, and throughout the whole island,
especially in the presidents own province
of Santa Clara, enthusiastic organiza
tons of re-electionists have been formed.
Zayas Would Succeed Gomez.
Whatever happens it is believed to be
certain that the president will oppose to
the utmost the election as his successor
of Vice President Zayas. DIR. Zayas. by
far the most astute politician in Cuba,
may not be very easily disposed of. He
has always maintained that the election
Of Gen. Gomez was only made possible
by the support of the Zayas faction of
the liberal party, given on the express
understanding, which the president is
now DESTROYS to repudiate, that Gen
Gomez's faction should support DR.. Zayas
for president in the following election.
DR.. Zayas has a strong following and
If he should effect an alliance with the
conservatives might seriously imperil the
presidents chances of reelection.
Conservatives Would Resist Fraud.
At a recent convention of the con-
sentative party no presidential candidate
was selected, it becoming practically as
sured that Gen. Mario Menocal. the
party standard bearer in the last cleo
ton, would decline to run again. An i'm

Grief Drives to INSANITY.

The death Of three Of her children from
typhoid fever has caused Mrs. James
Sargent, member of an old Frederick
county family. to lose her mind, at least
temporarily, and she was taken to the
Western State Hospital this week for
treatment.
Because the supervisors OF Warren

struction OF seven miles of new turn
pixies in two directions from the town
Of Front Royal. instead Of building a
road from that town to the Rappahan-
mock county line, as the voters were led
to believe at the time Of the bond issue
election. 1t Is now likely that an injunc-
ton will be sought restraining the ST.

ed plans.

This. of course, will be King Georges
second visit to India. His trip to that
part of the world in 1905 is estimated
Parliament voted 100000. and the
journey was made in the warship Re-
nown, which had to be considerably
altered to make her comfortable for the
royal passengers The latter expense
was met by the navy department. India
settled the large bill for the ceremonies
that marked the visit. In this instance
the kings privy purse was used to
large extent, and for that reason the
actual total expenditure on the trip has
never been made public.
Aside from this trip. In when
ostentation and show and glitter were
important part, King Georges
travels seldom have cost the British
ratepayers much money. although he
has been great traveler-probably the
greatest Of European monarchs. The
most expensive was his journey TO Aus
tralia, which ate up about 100000. FOR
this trip a special steamer was char
tered, as will be the case in the COM

OF those who believe in throwing money
away, except on his beloved army and

that occasion the kaiser established a
link between himself and the man in
