INTERSTATE BODY HIT
COMMERCE COURT ANNULS ITS
ORDER. POWER Is REDUCED.
Decision Holds Reduction Of Freight
Rates In South UnIawfuI-Bia
Loss to Railroads.

Observation-Disclosures was added
to the controversy between the
interstate commerce commission
and the commerce court as a result Of
the courts annulment in a decision
handed down by Judge Archibald Of
the commissions order for reduc-
tion of certain class freight rates
from New Orleans to points in Ala
bama and Florida.
The court declares congress never
intended to clothe the commission
with the wide authority it has as
sumed.
1t is further asserted that the court
could discover nothing in the record
in support of the conclusions Of the
commission or to justify the reduc-
uons in rates that it ordered.
This was the first case argued be-
fore the commerce court after its es-
tablishment more than year ago
1t proved to be a stubborn proceeding,
and the court took full time for its
consideration.
1t was brought by the Louisville &
Nashville railroad in an effort to mod
ify or annul the commissions order
of reduction.
1t was declared in the record that II
the order of the commission fixing
what, in its opinion, were reasonable
rates, were enforced, the loss to the
Louisville & Nashville would be $780,
900 a year.

FRANKLIN is FINED $4,000
Mcnamara Detective Severely Scored
by Los Angeles Judge While
Passing Sentence.

Los Angeles, Cal.-Bert H. Frank.
lin, former chief detective Of the Nc
Namara defense, who confessed last
week to using money for the purpose
of corrupting jurors IN the celebrated
case, was fined $4,000 and given a
severe castigation by Judge George
Cabaniss here.
Before sentence was passed, Assist
ant District Attorney Ford informed
the court that the assistance Of Frank
lin as a state witness insured the con.
viction of the alleged ring" who for.
merly worked with him Ford stated
that Franklin had made a full and
complete statement Of his entire
knowledge of the inner workings Of
the Mcnamara defense several weeks
ago. and he said that fine Of $4,000
be imposed on the detective.
In passing sentence, Judge Caba,
Miss told Franklin he was sorry he
could not give him state prison sen.
tence, as the act Of corrupting jurors
was nothing short Of damnable How.
ever, he must be governed by recon-.
mendations from the district attorney
and therefore would impose fine OF
$4,000.
