Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. 19.-The com

in the state supreme court by counsel
for William j. ScoWn of Chicago, who
brought suit to restrain the Coob

ers from mourning expenses in provid
Ing for the women to vote at the pri
mary election next month.
The bill was dismissed from the
Cook county superior court for want
bf equity and the present brief is on
appeal from that decision.
The phrase of the suffrage law per
hitting women to vote upon all ques
lions or propositions submitted to 9
vote of the electors" was attacked as
Violating the provisions of the consti

Commander Had No Warning
Of Danger.

st. John, N. B., Jan. 17.-The light
on the buoy that marks Trinity rock,
where the liner Cobequid was wreck
ed, was out, said her commander, Cap
tain John Hawson, who arrived here
on the government steamer Lans-
downe. He was the last man to leave
his ship. This statement was borne
out by the agent of the Canadian
marine department officers here who
said the department was notified late
Jan. z that the light was out. An an
nouncement of this was made in the
newspapers and the shipping fedora
ton at Montreal was notified.
A new buoy was placed on the
steamer Lansdowne last Saturday to
be taken to the ledge, but owing to
changes among the officers, she was
without her proper complement and
unable to proceed to sea. The Lans-
downe was ready to sail on Tuesday,
the day the Cobequid struck.
With the light buoy out of commits.

Strikes "RuIe Of Reason"
The amendment is designed to elm
mate the rule Of reason" laid down by
the supreme court in the Standard
Oil case.
The amendment also would invest
the circuit courts of the United States
with jurisdiction to restrain and pre-
vent violations of the act, irrespective
of the attorney general.
It was drawn to meet the wish OF
the president, expressed in his last
message to congress, to reduce the de.
batable area surrounding the Sherman
act.
Not Administration Bill.
The Kentucky congressman, WHIT
was chairman of the special committee
which investigated the United States
Steel corporation, does not offer the
measure as an administration amend
ment, but believes it would ce OF ser
vice to the committee which will draw
the antitrust legislation after the
presidents antitrust message is de-
livered.
The Stanley bill would amend the
second and fourth sections of the Sher
man law. In section two, into which
the supreme court injected the "rule
Of reason" the words Gin any degree
are inserted SO that the section would
read: Every person who shall have
monopolized or attempted to monopo
lie IN ANY DEGREE any part of the
trade or commerce, among the several
states, or with foreign nations, shall
