evidently marked their ballots as they

We think the reason however, was be.

IMPORTANT DECISION MADE
BY COMMERCE COMMISSION

Washington, March 26.-The Inter
state Commerce commission, in an
opinion made public Saturday, estab-
&tshed the far reaching principle that n
railroad must SO adjust It's rates that
Justice will be done between commune
tiles regardless of state lines. If a rail-
road makes a low rate upon traffic
wholly within a state, even when forced
to do so by a state commission, it must
accord the same rate to interstate traf-
tic moving under substantially similar
conditions.
The principle was laid down by a
vote of o to three. The minority
held that the powers of congress were
usurped by the majority opinion and
that the remedy for such a situation
should be applied through additional
legislation. The case Is the railroad
commission of Louisiana against the st.
Louis and Southwestern railway and
other carriers operating between Louis
lana and Texas.
The case practically precipitated a
confiict tive federal and state ALL
thority over the control of interstate
traffic. The opinion Of the majority of
the Interstate Commerce commission
prepared and handed down by Commits
sioner Lane is a definite assertion of
the supremacy of rational regulatory
authority over the powers exercised by
any state. 1t Is the first time this as
sertion has been made distinctly bv the
commission. In making it Chairman
Prouty and Commissioners Clark and
meyer concurred with Commissioner
Lane and Commissioners Clements.
Harlan and McChord dissented.

PUTS
OUT INCREASE IN
LIVESTOCK RATES
Commission, Holding That the
Burden of Proof Is On the
Railroads, Turns Down
the Advance.

Washington, March 26.-The Inter-
state Commerce commission today gave
a decision of much Importance to Iowa
and the whole live stock region when
it held the proposed increase or 33 1-3
per cent in the rates on stock cattle
and sheep throughout the western
states to and beyond the Missouri river
is not justified.
The increase was proposed by prac-
t;cally all the western roads. The COM
mission gives the carriers until April
permission is given to make the cancel
lation effective on one days notice. If
this is not lone by the date specified,
a suitable order will be entered.
Hearing Was Exhaustive.
The tariffs containing the proposed
rates have been postponed to various
dates as late as June Ii, 1912, upon pro-
Sioux City, South Omaha, South st
Paul, Kansas City, Chicago and of the
Corn Belle Meat Producers association
of Iowa, an organization of some 5000
feeders of cattle in hat state. The
state commissions Of Iowa, Missouri.
Kansas and South Dakota also were
represented at the hearing. An exhaus-
tive hearing was a and certain other
live stock records in previous proceed
ings before the commission have been
stipulated insofar as applicable, into
the present record.
In this case, George T. Bell and Nj.
w. Baldwin represented the Sioux City
Live Stock exchange, Judge J.. Fl. Hen
derson appeared for the Iowa commits
sion and Judge Henderson and A. Sykes
for the Corn Belt Meat Producers.
The decision, which is a great victor,
for the live stock interests, says:
What the Commission Says.
THE present relative adjustment Of
rates has been in effect for 25 years or
more, and the burden is upon the car
riers to justify Its discontinuance by
the proposed advances. We cannot ac-
cept the carriers contention that the
rs per cent rate on stockers and feeders
is a gratuity to be withdrawn at will.
The question is whether, under all the
circumstances and conditions, the pro-
posed rates are reasonable for the serv-
ice performed; and in determining that
question no particular factor should
exclude others of important bearing.
unless Of controlling force. Consider
ing all of the facts, circumstances and
conditions appearing, 1t is our conclu-
sion that an increase in the rates has
not been justified, and consequently
that the proposed increased rates are
unreasonable and unjust. 1T is our fur
Their finding that the rates on stockers
and feeders now in effect should not be
exceeded for the future"

LEADERS STILL
FLEEING FROM POSSE
sidna Allen Says That He Was
in No Way Connected
With the Murders.

Hillsville, Va. March 25.-No furthe
captures a been reported early to.
day by the posses ~endeavoring to round
up the Allen fugitives on the North
Carolina border. The arrest of young
Sidna Edwards yesterday, left four OF
the wanted at large-Sidna Allen, the
clan leader, who is supposed to have
fired the shot that killed Judge Massie
and his ncphews, Wesley Edwards and
Friel and Calude Allen. The massing Of
the hundred or more searcher. about
the hills south of this place indicates
that the officers believe the outlaws are
still secreted in that vicinity.
Sidna Edwards, who was found
alone, unarmed and hungry in a desert
ed mountain house, insists that he has
not seen his uncles or cousins since the
day of the court house tragedy. He
says he had no part in the shooting;
that he went to the court house and
later took to the mountains, only be-
cause he heard the posses intended to
shoot on sight any members of his
family.
Worn by hunger, fatigue n the pain
Of a scalded foot, Edwards slept last
night IN the jail here with two men
standing guard. He will be taken to
Roanoke today.
There Is much talk of the reported
offer of Sidna Allen and his nephews
to surrender on condition that they be
allowed to plead guilty to murder IN

Washington, March 26.-The real

sisted that all of it had been spent in
legitimate ways. The Senate investi-

Senator Hepburn, Of Idaho, and the full

WORK On
WOMAN, Her HEART
AND LUNGS Barred
Operators Able to Remove Can
cerous Tissue-Believe II
Will Probe a Great
Success.

New York, March 25.-Watching an
exposed human heat beat and the
lungs perform their functions of main
tanning life. a group Of surgeons bent
over the body OF a woman in the am
p~hitheater OF Bellevue hospital and OBJ
served events for 20 minutes. while the
combined efforts Of science and nature
won a triumph over death.
The triumph was described as all tho
greater becaus nature was assisted by
"a humanity devised continuance which
was tried for the first time in this city.
It is known as the Ellsberg apparatus.
It forces air Into the lungs and with
draws 1t, thus maintaining an artificial
respiration in a patient incapacitated
from breathing.
Mrs. Elizabeth Englenan, aged 81,
was h medium for the experiment.
She was admitted to the hospital on
March Ia, suffering from recurrent cam
Ger. Of an operation performed
nine years ago, the surgeons were re-
Iuctant to repeat the work Or IIIIcTra-
son Belts consulted with Visiting Sur
geon Rogers and 1t was agreed yes
terday that an immediate operation
was the only Of saving the
woman's life.
Prominent Physicians Present.
Mrs. Engleman was told Of the crisis
confronting her and eagerly consented
to an operation. Because OF the expert
mental value of the demonstration with
the Ellsberg apparatus, Invitations to
witness 1t We're accepted by several
prominent physicians, members OF the
faculty OF the Cornell University Med
ical school and the house stan of Belle

and Wood.
They assembled in the amphitheate.
at 3 p. M, and anaesthetics were adj
ministered to the patient.
1t was necessary to make an incision
which exposed the heart and left lung.
AS much Of our ribs as covered the
heart and lung was removed, leaving
the vital organs absolutely barred TO the
gaze of the surgeons. Because of the
removal OF the supports furnished by
the ribs, the lung would have col
lapsed without artificial assistance.
This was supplied by the Ellsberg ap-
paratus. which is electrically eQl,ipped
to supply air in the requisite quantity
and at the requisite pressure. The afr
was supplied to the lung through 9
silk tube which was placed In
the patients mouth n DETECTED until
connection was made with the direct
air passage to the lung.
Watch Heart at Work.
Extreme care had to be exercised In
applying artificial respiration at a time
when otherwise the exposed lung would
collapse. This was accomplished sd
successfully that the lung and there.

ions as If fairly normal conditions ex.
listed.
The deceased tissues were exposed
at h same time SO as to enable this
surgeons to remove them While THU
was being accomplished, those not act
ually engaged in the operation had
ample opportunity to watch a human
heart at work.
Mrs. Engleman came off Of the in.

dition was such that the surgeons felt
confident last night of her complete
