Jennings joins in the
Fight on Williams

Oklahoma City. Oct. l9.--John
Fields, through his committee, it is
believed, has at least made an open
alliance with AL Jennings and the
latter has agreed to postpone his show
trip for time and enter actively into
tho campaign for the Republican
party
AL has been flirting ever since the
primary campaign and there are now
many who believe he was procured
to run in the primary to help Fields.
Friday night AL Jennings made a
speech on the streets of this city, adj
dressing at least two thousand people.
He denounced Gov Cruce and Judge
Williams in particular and about
everything Democratic in eeneral. Il
Is understood here now that Jennings
will get actively into the campaign
for Fields and the Republican ticket

REHEARING
On RATES
IS OPENED
BY United Press.

BY United Press.
Washington, Oct. 19.-The rehearing
on the application Of eastern railroads
for five per cent advance in freight
rates was opened by the interstate
commerce commission this morning.
At the beginning Of the hearing
statements were submitted by Presi-
dent Willard Of the Baltimore & Ohio
and Vice President George Shriver,
tending to show that the war had
brought on such crisis in railroad
affairs that increases revenues were
imperative.
1t was brought out that the immedi-
ate effects of the war were demorali-
zation of the stock market and a pro-
lcnged rise in interest rates. When
foreign holders try to unload their
three billions in holdings of American
railroad securities, the possible effect
would be disastrous, it was claimed.
The railroad men claimed that the
net operating income of the roads in
1914 was the smallest in twenty or
twenty-one years.

SESSION OF
HIGH COURT
ISSTARTED
By United Press.

by united FreSS.
Washington, Oct. 19.--Meeting to-
day for the first time since the sum
mer recess for the purpose of handing
down decisions, the supreme court of
the United States has a docket of al
ready argued cases of great import
ance. None of the cases equal in in
terest several of those handed down
last season. But there are number
of knotty problems in the settlement
OF which there is the most intense in
terest in a number of localities
One of these is the Maryland grand
father case. This law would not pre-
vent negroes from voting for federal
officers, but in state and municipal
elections provides that. among other
things, man can vote if his ancestors
voted prior to January /, 1868, or be-
fore negroes were enfranchised. This
law was applied in Annapolis, capital
of Maryland, and four negroes have
appealed the case up to the supreme
court. 1t is one Of the most peculiar
grandfather" clauses ever brought up
TO the supreme court, in that it does
not bar negroes, even in its practical
working out, from voting for president
and congressman.
Another race question which will be
handed down in the near future, prob
ably,if not today, will be that on the
Oklahoma "Jim Grow" law, providing
that common carriers must provide
separate compartments wor white and
black passengers.
A case in which men connected with
big business are vitally interested is
the case of George G. Henry VS.. y. S.
Marshal Henkel OF New York. On this
decision hangs the power OF CON
gressional committee to force an un-
willing witness to testify before it.
Henry was a partner in the firm OF
William Solomon & Co., Wall street
brokers. He refused to testify before
the famous Pujo money trust" inves-
tigation committee.

Washington, Oct. 19. Undaunted by

ION growers in the house.
However, adjournment is possible
