SUPREME COURT HEARS
RATE CASE ARGUMENT
Clash Of Federal and State Authority
Expected to Be Settled BY Tn
bunal's Forthesmins Opinion.
TRADE DIVISION is INVOLVED

Arguments were concluded in the
Supreme Court yesterday on the shreve-
port rate cases. These cases were ap-
pealed to the Supreme Court from the
United States Commerce Court. The
question involved is a conflict Of the
State authority with the Federal au-
thority, in the regulation of commerce
over interstate railroads between points
wholly within the State.
The Texas and Pacific Railway Com
pany. and the Houston, East and West
Texas Railway Company, ana other In
terstate carriers petitioned the COM
merce Court for an Injunction against
an order that had been made by the
Interstate Commerce Commission. The
order required the carriers named 20
eQualize rates between Shreveport, La.
and local points in Texas. with the rates
prevailing for like hsuls wholly within
Texas.
The railroads asked for the injunction
on the ground that the lower rates pre-
vaiIing wholly within the State OF Texas
were made in compliance with an order
entered by the Texas Railway Commits
sion.
The principal argument for the rail-
roads was submitted by H. N. Garwood.
while Assistant Attorney General Deni-
SON appeared for the United States, and
p. j. Farrell. solicitor for the Interstate
Commerce Commission. made the argu-
ment for the government State OF
Louisiana intervened and arguments
were submitted by counsel TO the Louis
lana Railway Commission In support
of the contention put forward by the
government in support OF the order
made by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
y. 4. a.. ont,ton ~ attorneys and
others interested in the matter that when
the court hands down its opinion In the
Shreveport case. II will decide the Vital
issue that vas involved in the Minnesota
rate case. namely, whether when an
order made by the Federal authorities
regulating the business Of an Interstate
common carrier conflicts with an order
made by the State authority the Federal
authority or the State shall prevail.
II Is claimed That the order made by
the Texas Railway Commission. by which
rates were lowered between Texas points.
was made for the purpose OF diverting
trafic from Shreveport, La, which is
near the Texas border, and had enjoyed
a large jobbing trade with local points
in Texas. and turn this commercial cur
rent to Dallas, In Texas. In the Mime
sofa case II was shown that the order
made by the Minnesota Railway Commits
sion lowering rates between points wholly
within the state OF Minnesota, until they
were below the interstate rate for like
fauls, had operated to divert business
from Superior, Wis, on the east, and
from points in the Dakotas, just across
the Minnesota border. turning such busi-
ness to Minnesota cities
The broad question is whether such
orders. when made for this, purpose by
the State railway officers. is a burden
upon interstate commerce that may De
relieved by an order CT the Interstate
Commerce Commission.

Replying to an attack upon his support
of Blair Lee in the Maryland Senatorial
fight made by the Anti-Saloon League
Of Baltimore, Secretary Of State Bryan

option in Nebraska several years ago
was was made during a fight concern
ing a state issue, but that his support
OF Blair Lee is In connection with a
national question.
Secretary Bryan stated that he is sup
porting Lee not in connection with his
stand on the liquor question, but be-
cause Lee is the Democratic choice for
the Senate.
II would consider Il grave mistake,

Work Under Way
For New Plant.

Work is already underway for the
generating plant at Holland brook, of
the Kennebec Gas and Fuel Co., which
is to supply Waterville, Fairfield
Winslow. Oakland, Vassalboro and
Skowhegan and intermediate points
with gas This territory contains the
largest population in the United states
as yet ursupplied with gas. There are
approximately $4,000 people in the
aforementioned area, which Is along
the banks of the Kennebec, in what
may easily be termed the busiest sec
ton of the State of Maine. This new
form of light and fuel will supply
Waterville with the only public utility
she now lacks.
The plant, which is about midway
between Fairfield and Waterville. sets
back somewhat from the main road
and almost borders on the west bank
of the RI ar. A Maine Central siding
makes = ible the delivery of coal.
oil, coke and other supplies at low
freight cost, obviating the necessity
for long haulage. The gas generating
apparatus is of the latest and most i'm
proved type of construction, and the
buildings will be of the fireproof type.
The mains of the company, between
towns and in rural sections, where
possible, will follow the lines of the
Electric Traction roads. which are also
the lines of the quickest development
in a heusebuilding way.
1t will be some time before the plant
is completed and the mains laid, but
it will mean a great BOOM to- tAe-eem-
munlty. The corporation that will OPP
crate the plant will do business under
perpetual charter granted by the
Legislature of Maine at its last SEES
The charter is liberal in character and
free from any burdensome restrictions.
