PENNSYLVANIA RESULTS.

Philadelphia. - Colonel Roosevelt
carried Pennsylvania by tabulated
plurality Of 1907 votes over Governor
Wilson and Of 129,073 votes over Presi-
dent Taft.
The Washington party, the state
name for Colonel Roosevelt's Progress
sives, hold the balance of power in the
LEGISLATURE If they should combine
with the Democrats the two parties
might come together on some common
ground and send an independent DEM
ocrat to the United States Senate
The credit for the domination OF the
Roosevelt vote in Pennsylvania must
be given to ex-senator William Finn,
Of Pittsburgh, the Bull Moose leader
OF the State. 1t was the western END
of the State that rolled up the big
Roosevelt pluralities. In Pittsburgh
Senator Finn, with the assistance OF
Mayor William Magea. piled up a
Roosevelt vote equal to the combined
vote of Wilson and Taft.

Following is the ruling of Judge Thomas c.

Judge Jones ren- dered the opinion at Montgomery yes- terday and it is given below in it's en- 1irety. In view of the recent rate raises in both passenger and freight depart ments made by inc Louisville and Nash Vile railroad and it's allied lines the de- cision is of great interest all over the state of Alabama.

 HOW TO APPORTION VALUE OF
 PROPERTY TO EACH SERVICE. T. is obvious that tho property and equipment of a railroad, used indis- state commerce. cannot he divided or split up so that we may select any given separate part of the railroad and its equipment as devoted exclusively to inter or intrastate commerce. No such physical division Is possible. The only feasible way in which the value of the property devoted to the use of the intrastate commerce can be ascer- tained. is first to find the value of the entire property employed in com mon in both inter and intrastate com merce. and then 10 find by comparlson of the volumes of It's revenues in each business. or by some other measure, what proportion is used in each and thus to arrive at the value of the prop erty devoted to intrastate commerce.
