Judge McPherson's Decision

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Dec. 20
Eighteen million dollars in excess
charges by railroads operating in Mis-

travellers of the state If Attorney -
eral Barger is successful in tht On
suits he will file in the circuit rt.
The first Of the series was f. iere
this afternoon following re &c of
news from Kansas City thS sederal
Judge Mcpherson, in obedi o. to the
United States supreme x't man

forcement of the. rates. Barker's

eral in each bill demanding an ac-
counting to determine the exact
amount each road obtained from ship

while the famous rate cases were
pending at Washington. He will ask
that master be appointed by the
court to examine the books of each

!. Judge McPherson's refusal to grant
the request of the roads that his de
cision include an order that the
liability of the roads for excess
charges should be limited by the $40,
900 bonds they put up when the in

, minimum freight rate law became ef
fective in 1907 said Barker, 'sbu
the railroads deprived the people 0
Missouri from enjoying the benefits Q

3 Arguing before Judge Mcpherson
the railroads expressed the fear tha
thousands of suits for small amount
would be started all over the state {

tonight that he believed he was til
a proper officer to sue in behalf of til
