Railroads operating in Maryland
appealed to the Circuit Court from
the order passed by the Public Ser
vice Commission on July Is last cx-
tending from rs to 60 hours the time
allowed for loading and unloading
freight cars on country sidings in this
State. A preliminary injunction re-
straining the enforcement OF the Or
der was granted by Judge Harlan.
The Baltimore and Ohio, the Penn
sylyania lines, the Western Maryland
Railway lines and other railroads
brought the suit. 1t is alleged in the
bill of complaint that the order APP
pealed from is unreasonable, umlaw-
full and in violation of the Constitn-
ton of the United States and the
Constitution of Maryland. Among
the allegations are that the order dis
eliminates against shippers in Baltl,
more and undertakes to regulate IN
ter-State commerce.
The Court is asked to declare the
order void and to restrain its en-
forcement.

HARRY X. THAW ESCAPES.

Harry X. Thaw, the murderer OF

Matteawan Insane Asylum, N. Y,
early Sunday morning. 1t appears
that the gates to the grounds sur
rounding the institution were opened
to admit an autimobile, and Thaw
who was nearby rushed to the ma
chine, jumped in, and was quickl y
driven away by the man in charge
of the car. Evidently all necessary

Thaw has been captured at that place
and is being held for the New York
officials.
