Suit was filed in the Circuit Court
on Saturday by e. M. Lake against
the Western Union Telegraph Com

the telegram failed to reach him in

claimed from the Hattiesburg Traction
Company on account of personal in

the bill declares, struck the plaintiff
two severe blows on the head with the
metal wrench used in operating his

charged, followed the protest made by
the Kelly woman against the motor

charged relative of hers, who had
just entered the car at its terminal
on West Pine street, as the plaintiff
in this suit had left the car. The
demand for the return of the fare be-

had never before been required to pay

CONTROVERSY LASTED
MORE THAN A YEAR
Teachers now Employed In indian
Schools May Continue to Wear In
sigma and earb Of orders-PrIvI-
Iige Hereafter Denied.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, Sept. 23-Secreatry
Fishers action last January in re-
voking the order of former Indian
Commissioner Valentine, barring re-
ligious garb or insignia from govern
ment Indian schools, was upheld by
President Taft, in an order made pub
lie today.
The decision of the President is
that teachers now employed in Indian
schools may continue to wear the
garb of their religious orders; but
the privilege is denied to any person
hereafter entering the service. This
ruling will enable the government to
fulfill its obligations, the President
says to the teachers who were taken
into the government service when re-
ligious schools were taken over
bodily as government institutions.
The Presidents ruling is the final
step in contriversary that has en-
engaged the Interior Department
with religious bodies more than q
year. Commissioner Valentines or.
der would have prohibited any teach
ers from wearing religious garb in
the Indian schools after the end oi
the last school year.
President Taft's order, and lette
, from Secretary Fisher to Mr. Vale
tine, which accompanies it, lay stres
on the fact that Commissioner va
entine issued his ruling without co
sulting the Secretary or the Pres
dent; and while the entire subjei
was under investigation. Mr.. Fisher
