INSURANCE COMPANIES
RESTRAINED.

Jefferson City, Mo-, June 2S.-The
Missouri supreme court today over
ruled the demurrer filed by the fire
insurance companies that had an
nounced their intention to cease writ
ing business in this state and issued
temporary order restraining the
companies from cancelling poll
cies. This is victory for the attor-
ney general
The decision of the court in the in
surance cases allows the companies
to file an answer to the quo warran-
to proceedings of the attorney gen
eral who asked that they be fined for
combining to withdraw from the
state. After the answer is filed the
court will appoint a commissioner to
take testimony.
Judge Woodson, who wrote the op-
inion, made clear therein that the
attorney general had not sought to
prevent the fire insurance companies
from leaving the state
but that he sought to prevent them
leaving in a body by agreement.
On this point. the court held that
the companies had no legal right by
agreement to withdraw from the
state in a body in pursuance to said
unlawful agreement or to cancel their
policies on property in this state in
pursuance to said agreement

CUSTER VERDlCT
SUSPENDED IN
STANDARD OIL

Jefferson City, Mo, June 2S.-The
Missouri supreme court today an
nounced decision allowing the
Standard Oil company of Indiana,
which had been ousted rom the state,
to continue business in Missouri.
The decision does net revoke the
order of custer issued. some time ago,
us a result of proceedings instituted
by the state under the antitrust law,
but merely suspends the order for
SO long time as the company COM
plies with the laws of the state.
The suspension of the custer was
made after evidence had been taken
before special commissioner to sus-
tain the contention Of the company
that it no longer had a monopoly OF
the, oil business of the state.
The decision suspending the custer
provides that the supreme court
shall retain jurisdiction of the cases;
that the attorney general, if the com
pany violates the antitrust law, may
move to vacate the suspension of the
custer and that independent of the
attorney general the court evidence
may be taken to ascertain whether
the company is complying with the
laws

Louisville, KY, June 2S.--Chief of
Police Lindsey today issued blanket
order for the arrest of wearers of split
skirts without protecting undergar-
ments.

pearing on the streets of Louisville

forbid and ! believe this is without
doubt disorderly act says the

Il refer, to skirts which are split up

as an undergarment is worn beneath
the split dresses, it is all right, but
where a fragrant exposure is made, it
is the duty of the police to make ar
rests
Chief Lindsey said that women who
have the nerve" to appear on the
streets in split dresses will not mind
"a little thing like police court

WOODEN GOODS
WILL NOT GO
ON FREE LIST

Washington, d. G., June IS
Lively discussions developed today in
the senate caucus over the rate on
manufactures of wool. The low tariff
champions urged that manufactured
WoOlen goods for general use should
go to the free list. Woolen cloth,
dutiable in the bill at 25 per cent ad
valorem and stockings at 20 per cent
were among those items which some
senators declared should enter free
of duty to aid in reducing the cost
of living.
Senator Ashurst brought the de-
bate to a climax with an amendment
to transfer to the free list all wooden
such as blankets, cloth,
ready made clothing, stockings and
the like. The amendment was debat-
ed until | o'clock when all proposals
to place any woolen manufactured
goods on the free list were voted
down. No record vote was taken.
rhe action of the caucus last night in
putting cotton thread on the free list
vas not reopened and no further OBJ
lection to the change is expected.
