DECISIONS COMING.
United States Supreme Court to Re-
convene October ii.

Washington, September 8.-The
early return to Washington Of men,
bers of the supreme court of the
United States is taken to indicate the
disposition Of important cases shortly
after court convenes October IA.
Justice Mckenna is now in New
York, on his way back from a trip
abroad while Chief Justice White and
three or four other members of the
court are expected to be in Washing
ton at least two weeks before the
court convenes.
over fifty cases were under ad-
visement by the court when it ad-
Journed in June. Many Of these prob
ably will be disposed of on the first
decision day. Others which have been
the subject of review and study during
the vacation may require further con-
slderatiOn in the conference room af-
ter the court begins it's regular ses-
sions.
Most Of the cases under advise
ment are State rate cases. On these
decisions rest in a large measure the
authority of the States over local rail-
road rates. For the first time the su-
preme court will pass on the validity
of two-cent passenger rate laws. Since
about 1907. when two-cent fares be-
came popular with legislators, the
railroads have complained that the
rates were conliscatory and placed a
burden on Interstate traffic which
properly belonged on Intra State
commerce. Objections Of the same
nature have been made to maximum
freight rate laws adopted in number
Cf States.
The decisions will affect directly
the rate laws in Missouri, West Vir-
e.nia Oregon. Minnesota, Kentucky
and Arkansas. Many other States are
concerned Indirectly.
Further far-reaching interpretations
tL tHe sherman anti trust law are
anticipated early in the term. During
the summer the court has had under
advisement a number of trust
cases. Among these is the hard coal
case" in which the railroads OF the
Pennsylvania anthracite coal region
are charged by the Government with
having affected an illegal combination
to monopolize the transportation and
sale Of anthracite coal. In the West.
the Union Pacific merger with the
Southern Pacific has been attacked as
a violation of the Sherman antitrust
law and this case may be ready for
decision in October

Editor Star; Since the local press
commenced the crusade against the
tenements, Honolulu has been in the
grip of building mania of small
shacksr-some of them not larger than
a voting booth or peanut stand
which are going up by the dozen in
all parts of the city, and in many In
stances so compact that their occu-
pants may shake hands with one an
other through the windows.
These shacks or boxes, whatever
you may call them, may from view
point of sanitation, social conditions
and morality meet the requirements
perhaps better than the common tene-
ment, but nobody can convince me
that they are ornaments and as such

ton and l don't imagine that much at
tention will be PAID to trouble makers.
LICENSE INSPECTOR FENNELL-
There is a legal point involved in the
question whether the residents or a
precinct can petition to have all sa-
looms banished from one district or
whether it is necessary to stipulate
the places desired to be done away
with. 1t will probably have to be put
up to the attorney general before such
a step can be taken.
