Denver, Feb. l3.-The mandamus
suit against State Treasurer NJ. A.
Leddy being prepared by Attorney
General Farrar on behalf OF State
Land Registrar Hoggatt has not yet
been filed but probably will be with
in the next few days. according to
Farrar's statement today. The ac-
ton is to be brought before the su-
preme court and is to determine
whether the state school funds not
already apportioned can legally be
loaned to farmers for use in develop
ing irrigation projects.
Should the court hold the law pro-
viding for loaning this money to the
farmers be declared constitutional,
some 100000 will be distributed
among the different counties of the
state through the county commits
sioners who must approve the loans
on the basis of school population.
Farmers using the money will pay
per cent interest and applications
for loans shall be placed with the
county commissioners. Not more
than $1,000 can, under the law. be
loaned to a single farmer A mort
gage will be taken by the commits
sioners on property worth at least
twice the amount of the loan and
free of all incumbrance.
Should the borrower default the
loan will be made good by the county
commissioners who will increase the
tax levy to reimburse the state.
Treasurer Leddy is still in New
Orleans for the benefit of his health
but has advised that he will return
to Denver Just as soon as the suit is
commenced. He declared before
leaving for the south that he did not
oppose the loaning of this school
fund, but that he wanted to know
he was acting wholly within the law
and for the protection Of his bonds
men before he turned loose the
money promiscuously. For this rea-
son he asked that suit be brought
to determine the legality of the act
which provides for loaning this fund
to farmers.

George A. Post, president of the
Railway Business association, has
come forth against the bill of Repre-
sentative Esch, which requires sub
stitution of steel cars for wooden
cars on all railroads. This work was
to be done in four years under the
provisions of the bill. But Mr.. Post
showed Mr.. Esch some figures to
prove that the cost of the change
would be $392, 100000, something
which could not be done without an
advance in the freight rates on all
roads.
The position is upheld by Newman
Erb. president of the Minneapolis
and St. Louis railroad. He insists
that it is impossible for the railroads
to increase their facilities out of
earnings or SURPRISES.
81 have reached the conviction that
rates must be increased to enable the
railroads to meet part of their re-
quirements from the surplus earnings
and improve their credit to enable
them to obtain the means necessary
to meet the transportation needs of

in Utica: and that that man on the very
next day chopped his sisters head on
81 do not say this as an attack upon

fessional men are apt to make mistakes
Judge Aldrich retorted: 'I shall rely
upon the finding of the commission with
regard TO Thaw's mental state and the
Thaw forces were elated. They believe
this marks a victory for their side.
When arguments were concluded today
Judge AIdrich gave Mr.. Jerome ten days
to file a supplemental brief. after which
Thaw's counsel will have ten days more.
Then a further hearing will be held.
