SUPREME COURT UPHOLDS
MISSOURI RAIL RATES
Decision Of Supreme Tribunal Makes
State Victor In Six of Nine
Cases.

the rates fixed by the state of Mis-
souri, as to six companies, the Chi
Cage, Burlington & Quincy, the Santa
Fe, the Kansas City Southern, the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas, the Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific, includ-
ing the ST. Louis, Kansas City &
Colorado, and the st. Louis & San
Francisco. In three of the cases tho
rates were held to be confiscatory
the ST. Louis & Hannibal, the Kan
sas City, Clinton & Springfield, ard
the Chicago & Great Western. The
decision sustaining the rates as to
the six companies applies to the St.
Louis & San Francisco, the Missouri
Pacific, st. Louis. Iron Mountain &

kee & st. Paul and the Chicago &
| Alton.
The decision holding the rates to
be confiscatory applies to the Quincy,

eighteen suits and the rates fixed
by the state on Interstate commerce

held to be confiscatory, the railroad

son of a change in circumstances the
rates fixed by the state act are suf-
ficient to yield reasonable compensa-

WILL READ MESSAGE.
PRESIDENT FINISHES WRITING
HIS VIEWS ON CURRENCY
LEGISLATION.
URGES IMMEDIATE REVISION
Wilson'S Paper Will Follow the Intro

About Middle of the Week-Prompt
Action IL Predicted.

Washington, June 17.-President
sage personally to both branches OF
congress assembled in the hall OF the
house, as he did the tariff message.
He has finished writing the message.
II Is about 1,200 words long, and urges
immediate revision of the banking and
currency laws.
The president expects the currency
bill to be launched in both houses Of
congress some time this week. 1t
represents the administrators views,
and, according to Mr.. Wilson. will be
mo mans BILL" but the result Of COM
mon counsel among currency advo-
Gates whose suggestions were con-
densed and formulated by Secretary
McAdoo OF the treasury department.
Chairmen Owen and Glass OF the SEN
ate and house banking currency COM
mittees. respectively, with the advice
and assistance Of the president.
At Harmony With Leaders.
The impression prevails that the
bill will be introduced In both houses
by tomorrow or Thursday, and that
the president will pronounce his
views to congress about June %.
The president declared that there
were no essential variations among
the leading Democrats with whom he
had consulted concerning currency re-
form. AS to the intimation from the
capital that currency legislation was
not to be desired at this session, the
president declared no such informa-
ton had been conveyed to him.
His impression was that the need
of currency legislation was recog
nized, but that the only objection
raised against it's enactment at the ex
ira session was the approaching ho'
season.
Harmony of purpose, but perhaps
not harmony of opinion, is the way
the White House sizes up the currency
situation. With the feeling that the
trainers of the bill have been on SOUND
ground, the president and Democratic
leaders hope TO reconcile differences
so that there will be party agreement:
eventually. There is no disposition t
regard the currency bill as it II
launched as the final word of this ad
ministration on the subject.
Owen Predicts Prompt Action.
Mr.. Owen announced that the bill
practically had been completed
would be considered in committee this
week, and taken up and passed be
fore the extra session adjourned.
This talk of no currency legisla
ton at this session." said Senate
Owen, "is based on artificial senti
ment. IT is sentiment stirred up b,
persons who do not want currenc.
legislation"
Senator Owen believes in a plan
which the bill will embody, Of re
gional reserve system and a centra
board of control dominated by tn
federal government.
Personally" said Senator Owen, ''
believe that the bankers should &c
out of the governing business, just a
the bankers have argued that the gov
eminent should get out of the bank
