STATES LOSE OUT
IN RATE CASES
SUPREME COURT lNvALlDATEs
LOSS LIABILITY AND DE-
MURRAGE LAWS.

Washington, Jan. 6.-The power of
the states over railroads n express
companies suffered a hard blow today
when the supreme court held that,
since the passage of the Carmack
amendment to the interstate COM
merce law in 1906 the states had
ceased to have the right to nnu on
tracts between railroads and shippers
limiting the liability for the loss for
interstate shipments.
Another serious blow was delivered
when the court held that the states
since the passage of the interstate
ommerce act, and especially the Hep
burn law in 1906, had no power to
p~enalize railroads for failure to fur
nish cars fer interstate shipments. In
his connection the court declared UNI
constitutional the reciprocal demur-
rage law, authorizing the recovery by
day on which the railroad failed to
furnish a car for the removal of
freight.
The court pointed out today that
previous to the passage of the Cars
mack amendment, the court had up>
held an iowa statute under which a
CoIllIdCl llHlllluS inc ud1lldSeS Ill Case
of loss had Deer annulled and also
had proved q Pennsylvania case in
which it was held that the public poll
icy of the state was opposed to such
contracts. AS a result of the passage
of the Carmack amendment, however,
the court, speaking through Justice
Lurton, held that congress had mani-
tested it's intention to deal with the
subject of carrier liabilities for inter~
state shipments and, that being the
case, the state laws must give way
Consequently, it's decision at once an
nulled the Kentucky n Nebraska
laws holding such contracts void. The
court not only annulled state laws
which seek to regulate the liability,
but it held that the federal laws, as
expressed in the Carmack amendment,
dealt with the damage of railroad
shipments and that it did not prohibit
contracts limiting liabilities in return
on a low rate.
Justice Lurton said it was just as
reasonable to base rates on value as
on the character of the shipments.
Furthermore, he added, it vas not
conformable to plain principles of jus.
tice that the shipper might UNDER
state the value of his property to re-
duce the rate, and then recover a
large value in case of loss.
AS to the reciprocal demurrage law
for interstate commerce., the court
said that the Hepburn rate law ex-
pressly fixed the duty of carriers to
furnish cars and that precluded the
states from acting further on that
subject.

Lead production increased about 2

toward the end of the year, the price

duction of some of the large Occur
d'Alene mines, a greater increase was
expected, but shipments from several
mines at Mace and Wardner We're
much less than in former years. The

ord. Lemhi county was the source
of about $4,000, 900 pounds Of lead,
largely from the Latest Out and Pitts

near HALEY, but at Arco the Wilbert
Mining company operated a new con-
centration plant and produced nearly
100000 pounds. The lead smelter at
Hahn was burned in September, and a
lead furnace at Clayton, in Custer
county, was the only smelter operated
in the state. The ead production Of
Idaho represented 65 per cent of the
value of the total metal output in 1912,

lead production in 1912 from the out
put of nearly $500 600 pounds in 1911.
The East Helena lead plant was active
but worked largely on lead ore from
other states.
A decrease of about Al per cent, to
an estimated production of 25,520,0 900
pounds for 1912. was shown in the
spelter output, but interesting work
was done in metallurgical treatment
and construction. The Elm Orlu mine,
the concentration of which was lost by
fire in 1911, produced no zinc, although
experiments were made in direct
smelling of the ore, both at Butte and
in Germany. improvements We're
made at the Butte and Superior mine,
which somewhat retarded shipments.
A new surface plant and a 500-ton
unit of a concentration mill We're con-
structed. The latter began operations
in June, using an oil flotation process
in connection with concentration,
Small shipments of zinc concentrates
were made from Basin, in Jefferson
county, and of zinc ore from Troy, in
Lincoln county. Work at George
town, in Deer Lodge county, was slim
ulated by the building of the railroad
into the district, and construction was
continued on the road to Radersburg,
in BroadWater county.

In Idaho.

In 1912 the metal output of Idaho,
according to preliminary estimates by
c.. n. Gerry of the United States geo.
logical survey, was valued at nearly
$21, coo, 600, an increase of abou 10
per cent over the value for 1911. In
creases were made in the production
of copper, lea and zinc, while the out
put of gold n silver slightly de-
creased. The added value was due
partly to he better prices of silver,
copper and zinc prevailing in 1912.
There was q slight decrease of about
!. per cent in gold production, lower
ing the output for 1912 to about
$1,000, 600. This decrease is traceable
to lessened production from siliceous
ore and partly FRI m copper ore, as
gold from placers and lead ore in
creased. The Lost Packer copper
mine, the ore of which contains con
siderable gold, was unproductive, and
less gold came from the siliceous ores
Of OWyhee and Gilmore counties.
Ilacers, particularly those worked by
~dredges, had a greatly increased gold
output. Two boats in Boise county,
two in Lemhi, ana two in Clearwater
wei a
The silver output was nearly the
same as that of 1911. or approximately
$4,000 ounces. Silver production is
principally from lead ore, but the
amount of silver per ton is gradually
decreasing in the older mines. AL
though shipment of lead ore increased,
the total silver output slightly de-
creased Many Of the Occur d'Alene
mines marketed more than the usual
amount of silver, but others decreased
their output.
An increase of owe 46. per cent was
noted in the copper production, in spite
of the fact that the Lost Packer
smelter at 1vers was idle in 1912.
The estimated production of about
100000 pounds came principally from
the Empire Copper company in Custer
county INC the SnoWstorm mine in
