JUSTICE HUGHES MAY BE
CHOSEN FOR A DECISION
Final Rulings in Railroad Cases
on Monday.

WASHINGTON. June finnish
ing touches to the Supreme Courts
decision in the railroad cases from
Missouri Arkansas, Kentucky Ore
gon and West Virginia are believed
to have been added today in secret
conference. The decisions, with those
in the other forty-nine cases before
the Court. are expected TO be an
nounced Monday.
Justice Hughes is picked by most
lawyers familiar with the court pro-
cedure as certain to announce the
conclusion of the court. as he did in
the Minnesota rate cases last Mon
day. In doing so he will review the
opinion of Judge Smith Mcpherson, of
the Western Missouri Circuit Court.
BY a strange coincidence Judge Nc
Phersen in that opinion commented
upon the moral courage of Justice
Hughes. then governor of New York.
for vetoing a two-cent passenger bill.
Mcpherson held the Missouri
freight rates and the two
cent passenger law confiscated the
property Of the railroads and enjoined
their enforcement.
THE relations of governor to pro-
posed legislation and those of court
to legislation to be consummated,"
held Judge Mcpherson, ARE entirely
different"

an open hearse drawn by four black
horses. The bands played dirges while
the members of the various womena
societies fell Into line behind the
hearse, each group headed by its
banner and all wearing mourning
emblems. Enormous crowds sur
rounded the station, making progress
difficult.
The parade was divided into eleven
sections. The suffragettes marched
in fours, all carrying flowers.
The coffin was in the middle of the
procession and the clergy of ST.
Georges Church. Bloomsbury,
marched at the head. The rector of
the church, DIR. Baumgarten, had is
sued a statement that he was not
a sympathizer with the women's mill

With the exception of Mrs. Emme-

today. and General" Mrs. Flora
Drummond, who is i'll. all the leaders
of militant organizations occupied
prominent places in the procession.

ing the establishment of a pension

feet until December 81, 1918.
The measure provides that the en-
ployees shall be taxed / per cent. of
their salary, but If the amount runs
under $4,000 the trustees are allowed
to tax any amount up to per cent.
Only two of the employees voted
against the adoption of the bureau

OPEN BREACH BETWEEN
DUMA ADMINISTERS

ST. PETERSBURG, June Il. 4
complete breach has opened between
the Russian government and the
Duma. Members of the cabinet an
nounced today that neither the min
listers nor the heads of departments
will appear in the house until con-
ditions are established under which
representatives of the government
will be secure from insult by the
members of the Duma."
The immediate cause of this de-
cision was remark by M. Markoff,
a reaetionary, during the debates on
the estimates. While the minister of
finance was speaking MarlSoff cried
out Stealing cannot be tolerated"
He added that his remark applied not
only to the minister of finance, but to
all the officials of the various de-
partments of state.
The ministers and officials present
in the House thereupon rose from
their seats and left in a body. Later
at a meeting of the cabinet the min
lister of the interior spoke strongly in
favor of the dissolution of the Duma.
He was outvoted

UNITED ON
TARIFF MEASURE
Clear Democratic Majority Pre-
dicted and Bill Will Be
Pushed to Passage.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Admin-
istration leaders in the Senate were
in a jubilant mood today over the
prospects for the tariff bill They I'M
hesitatingly asserted that the party
was ready for harmonious action and
predicted that a clear Democratic
majority for the measure, as it comes
from the caucus, will not be endan-
gered.
Admitting that the situation in the
Senate was anything but satisfac-
tory when the bill passed the House,
the leaders now contend that pro-
longed preliminary consideration Of
the measure has brought about IAN
ironing out of the rough places in
the party alignment, and that every
department has been in favor of the
administration policies.
Today the Democratic majority re-
sumed consideration of sub-commit-
tee reports, and Senator Simmons, the
chairman, asserted that he intended
to push the bill as rapidly as posi-
BILE.
There is evidence everywhere that
the country wants quick action on
this tariff measure" said Senator
Simmons. II have realized it from
the beginning, but 1t has been inn
possible to move faster and wisely
up to this time. Now. there is moth
ing to prevent rapid progress and the
bill will be pushed. 1t has been re-
oeived by the country with less ap-
prehension than we had expected. 1t
is fact that fewer protests have
been made than to any tariff bill
with which / ever had anything to
do"

CITY WATERSHED
TO Be PROTECTED
Federal Lookout Fire Stations
in Forests in Northern
New Jersey.

FOR protection from fires in the
forests in the northern section of the
state the Federal government has
appropriated $1,000 for the establish
nent of four lookout" stations in
that vicinity.
Sewarks watershed properties are
located within the district in which
the forest fire control work VIII pc
started within a few days, but ex-
cent for the initial cost for equip
ment. amounting to less than 500, 1t
viii cost the city not cent for the
nrotection. Even the salaries or the
slookouts" will be paid by the gov
eminent.
Several months ago the Federal
forestry department took up the
matter with the Board of Works. II
was explained at that time that New
ark would be expected only to furnish
telephone communication for the sta
ton on it's property and a few other
incidentals. Otherwise the service
would be free. The local authorities
Jumped at the chance and work on
the installation of the telephone lines
was Immediately started. Now 1t IS
complete.
The lookout" station on the water
shed property consists of a tower
about fifty feet in height. standing
on a ridge of the Nearport mountains
about 300 feet above sea level. This
tower. which was formerly known as
the observation tower, is located
about three-duarters of a mile from
Cedar pond and in the midst OF the
woodlands, in the Dream Park tract
It will be the duty of the lookout
who will be on duty day and night,
to keep a close watch on the sur
rounding country and Immediately
report the slightest semblance of ire
There have been several fires in the
section in question, and, while no
serious damage has been done. it is
feared that if a fire should get
Roadway the entire forest would be
wiped out 1t is for this reason that
the fire control work is being insti-
tuted by the government
The appropriation by the federal
authorities is made under the Weeks
law. which provides that sums of
money may be contributed for this
sort of work in States where work
of similar character is being done
by the governments In charge.
The allotment is made only with the
understanding that $500 will be ex-
pended in maintaining the lookout
.watchman. The money can only be
used for salaries of employees, and
the equipment must be furnished by
those benefited by the service.
other stations are being provided
at High Point. just east of Green
wood Lake, and in the vicinity of the

Henley's unsuccessful efforts to end

opened the windows and doors and
then ran to the office of DIR. Mitchell,

minutes the doctor arrived at the
house.

windows opened, as he had left them,
Holden found them closed and
fastened, and the gas was again
escaping. This time the jet had not
only been opened, but the fixture had
