KENTUCKY'S MAXIMUM
FREIGHT RATE LAW
IS APPROVED
UNITED PRESS lAAsuD wrnn.I

Washington, Dec. 1.--Kentucky's
maximum freight rate law was ap.
proved, in effect, here today by the
United States supreme court in test
suit brought by the Louisville & Nash.
vile railroad. The decision reaffirmed
the right of states to create railroad
commission with the power to fix intra.
state rates.
While the supreme court did not di.
rectly declare the maximum freight
law valid, it affirmed the decision Of
the Kentucky courts.
The Kentucky rate case was the last
Of the 40 so-called "railroad rate
cases" before the court, A Of which
were decided last June against the
railroads, beginning with the famous
Minnesota case. Justice Hughes framed
the decision in the former cases which
arose from Minnesota, Arkansas, Mis-.
souri,, Oregon and West Virginia. In
all the right of state railway commits.
sions to regulate intrastate rates, al.
though they incidentally affected in.
terstate rates, until congress acted 9th.
erwise was maintained by the court.
Authority Of state railway commissions
to regulate their intrastate rates was
squarely raised in tho Kentucky case
today. The Kentucky federal courts up,
held the Estates right doctrine in the
trial below. The state railroad com.
mission Of Kentucky was created un.
der the "McChord act,' a state law
passed in 1900 as drawn by Interstate
Commerce Commissioner McChord. It
gave the state commission power to
fix reasonable rates and enforce res.
titution Of overcharges upon strictly
intrastate traffic.
The test case decided today was
brought by the Louisville & Nashville
railroad which flady denied the con.
stitutionality Of the McChord act as
an interference with intrastate com.
merco and federal rate jurisdiction. On
August 81, 1910, the railroad sued to
enjoin enforcement Of an order Of the
Kentucky commission reducing rates on
liquor between Louisville, Covington
and Newport, KY, and 10 Kentucky
cities. The rates were declared to bo
confiscatory. The railroad also partic.
ularly alleged unconstitutional the
clause Of the MeChord act denying ap.
peal Of the railroads from any order Of
the state commission TO any other tri.
bunal. =.

Men Women and Children
Driven From Streets by In
dianapOlis Cops.
NIGHT STICKS ARE USED
Every Head in Sight Battered by Off
GERS in Effort to Prevent Street
Gathering.

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. with
Mayor Shank deposed as too friendly
to labor, and In his place as acting
mayor Comptroller Wallace, pledged to
uphold capitals cause, indianapolis em-
ployers were prepared to deal sternly
with the teamsters' strike, which be-
gan here today.
Mounted policemen surrounded the
wagons, manned by" strike-breakers,
which began starting out from scores
Of business houses after the short tie-up
Of teaming during the earlier hours Of
the forenoon. Crowds Of strike sym
pathizers surged about the wagons, try
ing to persuade the drivers to quit,
but the police charged recklessly
among them, hurling men, women and
children aside, knocking some down and
making many arrests.
Rap Them With Sticks.
Policemen on foot carried long night
sticks, with which they battered ever
head in sight in their efforts to prevent
street gatherings
Special deputies swarmed every
where, and Acting Mayor Wallace
served notice that his men were under
orders to shoot to kill as soon as they
de,med the use of firearms necessary
TO quell violence.
Nevertheless, there were employers
who showed signs Of anxiety. In sew.
eral instances non.union teamsters were
not allowed to unload coal at shops
where union men were employed, the
owners fearing they would precipitate
strikes Of their own forces. There were
business men, too, who would not al.
low their teams to be taken out, fear.
ing violence
Say 1t Is Unjustifiable.
The Commercial Vehicle Protective
association issued statement declar.
ing the strike unjustifiable, aad argu.
ing that majority Of teamsters in the
city were non.unionists, who, though
they failed to- report for work today,
did so only through fear.
Thomas FarrelI, the strike leader, an
nounced that tho teamsters' Indianap.
oils union numbered 5000 men, and said
more were joining hourly
The unionists demanded better pay
and improved working conditions.
