NASHVILLE WINS
GRAIN RtSH|PP|NG
CASE DEC|S|vEly
COMMERCE COURT RENDERS A
DECISION REVERSING THE
COMMISSION.
QUESTION OF PUBLIC INTEREST
Result Means That Nashville Retains
Supremacy as Grain Center of the
South-No Discrimination Against
the Georgia Cities.

WASHINGTON, June S-The
commerce court today annulled the
orGer of the interstate commerce
commission which directed the Lou
isv.,le & Nashville railroad to cease
granting to the city of Nashville the
privilege of reshipping grain, grain
products and hay from Nashville so
long IS the asme privilege was denied
to Atlanta and other Georgia points.
The court gave the opinion that
there was no discrimination against
the Georgia cities in the Nashville
reshlpping privilege and no violation
of law.
Four other orders or the commits
sion in cases of lesser Importance
We're sustained by the court.
The court sums up the case in part
as follows:
"Oar conclusion in regard to the
whole case is that under the facts
appearing in the record the reship-
ping privilege at Nashville Is not in
violation of section Ill, nor dis.
elimination in favor Of. Nashville as
against Atlanta and other Georgia
points. and that the facts being undis-
pLted it is within the undoubted
power of this court to 80 decide as
matter OF law applicable TO such q
state of facts"
Judge Hunt alone dissented from
the opinion of the court. The case
was heard by the commerce court in
Washington on June I, 1912, Chief
Justice Knapp, presiding, and Judges

Crop conditions in Maury county
are regarded as most flattering.
Never in the same length of time has
the wheat crop improved more than
1t has during the past six weeks.
About May farmers generally agreed
that tne crop would not make over
fifty per cent of the average yield.
During the past six weeks there has
been a gradual improvement and
many fields promise Utmost a full
yield. Estimates have now been re-
vissd and it is the opinion of those
who have investigated the grain
closely over, the county that it will
MAKE a yield of not less than seven
ty-tive per cent of the average. The
cool dry weather of the past several
days has been helpful to the plant.
Oats are indeed promising. AL
though sown unusually late owing to
the continued rains or the early
spring, favorable seasons have caus-
ed AN exceptional growth. The
plant is we'll headed, the grains are
large and well formed and the yield

Germ is late, later than it has been

the corn sown the first part of May
has been plowed up and repIanted.

SAYS THE SHERMAN LAW
APPLIES TO LABOR UNIONS
Daniel Davenport Discusses Matter
Before Senate Committee on
Interstate Commerce.

Daniel Davenport one of the committee
of three prosecutors which framed the
charges against Samuel Gompers and
other officers of the American Federation
Of Labor. told the Senate committee on
interstate commerce this morning that
the Sherman antitrust law was intended
to, did and should apply to combinations
of labor as well as combinations of cap
ital.
In holding that it was the intention OF
Congress when it passed the sherman
law to have it affect labor organizations
Mr. Davenport admitted he took excep-
ton to quoted statements made by the
President of the United States and by
Senator Cummins of Iowa. The Presi-
dent, he said. has been quoted as saying.
i'm a speech in Minnesota that Congress
did not intend to reach labor organiza-
tons when it passed the ANTITRUST law.
"It was the specific intention Of Con-
gress to include labor unions he re-
marked land that is demonstrable.
In backing up his contention Mr. Daven-
port called attention to the debates In
Congress when the law was passed. to
the brief Of the employers in the Dan
bury hatters case and to the decision OF
the United States Supreme Court in that
case holding that labor unions were with
in the scope of the law.
Attorney Davenport also called the
committees attention to decision of the
United States Supreme Court in 1883, be-
fore the antitrust law was passed. in
case arising in the District courts holding
that boycott is by the common law IL
legal and criminal. This decision was
made in a case. he said. brought by union
men. and the court took the view that
the union men urged upon 1t at that
time.

Reason of Present High

While butter merchants are looking
confidently toward lowering in the
price of that table necessity. which has
scared almost to record heights in the
last week. and are telling customers that
lit is no fault of the merchants the
wholesalers and jobbers in many in
stances are blaming the last jump OF
4 cents a pound on the internal politics
of the Elgin butter board.
1t is hoped by butter dealers here,
they say, that the next quotation from
Elgin, which viii be made this after
noon, will lower the price by > cents,
and in the meantime the scare in the
poultry market is laughed at in this
city. The report from New York that
the poultry market is being cornered is
discredited here.
News dispatches of few weeks ago
told of an insurgent element in the but
ter board gaining the control, and the
uninstructed public imagined that the
new members would insurge toward low
er prices. Now, according to news re-
ceived by the men in the butter bust
ness here, the regulars who are new off
the board are pointing at the insurgents
and saying, 4 told you So
