LABOR GAINS BIG POINT.
Kansas Supreme Court Decides EN-.
pIoyer Must Admit Union.

Topeka, Kan.-The Kansas supreme
court handed down two labor union de-
cisions recently. The first was the
state against T. P. Coppage, super
intendent of the st. Louis & San
Francisco railway at Fort Scott A. r..
Hedges, employed by the railway as
switchman in Frisco yard, was
member of the Switchmen's union. The
railway company requested him to
withdraw from the union, and he re-
fused. He was discharged from the
service of the company. In the lower
court Coppage was found guilty OF
violating the Kansas coercion law and
the supreme court sustained that deci'
sion.
In the suit of the state against AL
fred Ackenhausen from Leavenworth
county, similar questions were involv-
ed and the supreme court ordered
trial of the case in the district court.

State Bank Held for Shortage.

1t goes hard with bank in Kansas
when it assists defaulter in covering
up his defalcations, according to de,
cision just handed down by the SUI
preme court. The opinion was handed
down in connection with the case
against the Linscott State Bank OF
Holton. The late Albert Sarbach was
treasurer of the Masonic grand lodge
of Kansas and kept his funds in the
Linscott State Bank. Before his death
he began drawing upon the Masonic
funds for personal use. The court
holds that the bank knew of his trans
actions and that in order to allow Sar-
bach to cover up the defalcations the
bank gave him certificate showing
that all of the funds in his custody
belonging to the Masons were intact.
After his death the shortages became
known and the Masons brought suit
to recover. In the lower court the
Linscott State bank held for the full
amount of the shortage, $9,0S7.43, and
the supreme court sustains the district
court.
