STEAMSHIP COMPANY MUST
CARRY ALL PAPERS.
Opinion Handed Down by Public Ser
vice Commission.

An opinion was handed down Tues
day by the Public Service Commission
in the complaint of the Charles c. Full
ton Company, publishers of the Balti-
more American, against the Eastern
Shore Development and Steamship
Company. as to the shipment of news
papers from Annapolis to Claiborne at
certain hours Sunday mornings in ia
vor of the plaintiffs
1t was held by Mr.. Timanus, who
wrote the opinion, that the steamship
company was a common carrier, and
as such had no right to contract to
carry only the wares of one concern to
the exclusion of one of others. even
though the boat for this purpose was
ostensibly chartered by the one con
Germ in question.
The complaint showed that the Bal
timore Sun had chartered prior to
January last, small boat to carry its
Sunday morning papers for Eastern
Shore distribution, and that, while the
boat was free to carry passengers and
baggage, which it did, it could not ac-
cept Sunday papers published by the
Baltimore American and destined for
distribution throughout the Eastern
Shore section of the State.
IT is held by the Commission that
the company must carry for the Fulton
Company papers at the prescribed rate,
which is approximately that allowed
the Baltimore Sun, and at the rate of
so cents per 100 pounds in excess of
1900 pounds. Any other publisher is
given the right to avail himself of this
right. according to the decision of the
Public Service Commission
The steamboat company declared
that it had not renewed any contrac-
tural relations pending the decision of
the Commission and would not do so
unless allowed by this body. Under
the decision the service of the company
is open to all. and the wares of any
publisher or other producer must be
carried subject to the published and
legally accepted rates of the company

MAN AND DOMESTIC ANIMALS
Anthropoloaists Have Discovered
Many Interesting Facts That Have
Bearing on Their Relations.

At a recent meeting of the German
Archaeological society, Prof Ed Hahn
lectured on human races and proper
ties of domestic animals. dwelling es.
pecially on such relations as are found
TO exist between the outward appear
ance of human races and the races OF
mans animal companions. The hues
mainly occurring in the case OF man
as well as of domestic animals are
black brown, red. yellow and white.
remarkable feature being that these
external characteristics seem to be
connected with the whole Of bodily
constitution. A distinguished anthro-
pologist. Prof. Eugen Fischer OF Frei-
burg, Baden, on evidence afforded by
the eve OF mammals. considers the
Wilderness of domestic animals and
white man TO be kindred phenomena.
nor does he hesitate TO suggest many
other analogies of a similar kind be
tween man and animals According to
the lecturer, humanity as a whole. in
elusive of what are called primitive
peoples, has been subjected for some
time to conditions similar TO those OF
work in the case of our domestic ami
mails. The classification mainly based
on color may be replaced by a system
of darker and lighter strains within q
given race. Attention is drawn in this
connection to the Simmenthal oxen,
which, within memory Of man, have
become remarkably bright-colored. as
well as to the fact that the subse-
quent darkening of adults points to
the merging, in olden times, of bright
er and darker varieties of man.--Sci-

GOOD CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA
Former American Physician Testlfies
to Benefits That Have Followed
Doing Away With Vodka.

Fewer cases of insanity are being
received in the asylums and hospitals
of Russia today than before the war.
notwithstanding the brainracking ey-
periences which hundreds of thou
sands of people of that country have
gone through during the last year.
This indicates to my mind that prohi-
bition of the sale Of vodka has been
q great thing for Russia
This statement was made to a re-
porter by DR.. Philip Newton, formerly
a hospital physician of Washington,
now a brigadier general in the medical
branch of the Russian army. Doctor
Newton arrived here recently after
having served for fifteen months In
Russia-ffrst as surgeon of the
American Red Cross and since Octo-
Der 1915, in the Russian army.
THE prohibition OF the sale OF vod-
ka and other intoxlcants has made a
better citizen and soldier of the Rus
sian" Doctor Newton said. "Ie may
not be as smart as the English and
French but he can do harder work
and better withstand hardships The
Russians make ideal hospital patients.
The manner in which they endure the
most painful injuries is wonderful -

ADMIRAL FLETCHER
SENDS S. o. S. CALL.
The Atlantic Fleet is Short Of Sea
Cooks.

The bitter feeling of all seamen for
the son of sea cook probably reflects
their state of mind when contemplate
ing what they inelegantly term their
grub The meals of the forecastle
are far removed from anything sug-
cestiye of Lucullus. says the Philadel-
phia Record.
Yet they are food, and food is essen
tial TO the sailormen. even though the
coffee may afford him grounds of
complaint, and the paucity of chicken
in his feather soup may fill his soul
with hatred of sea cooks and their
progeny. The one important item in
Admiral Fletcher's wireless dispatch
regarding deficiencies in the personnel
Of his feet is the shortage of forty
four ships cooks.
Without cooks there can be no din
ners, and without dinners there is an
end of all things. And Admiral
Fletcher's fleet is short forty-four of
them. The seriousness of the situa-
ton cannot be exaggerated. Napol-
cons remark that an army moves upon
its belly is NOT literally applicable TO
the navy which moves on its coal
bunkers or oil tanks
But it is universally recognized that
the gun is of less importance than the
man behind the gun. What matters il
that there are pletny of shells TO put
into the gun when there is no lob
scouse or plum duff to put into the
man behind the gum
1t has sometimes been supposed by
landsmen. who know nothing about il
that there is rather an excess of Shout
der straps in both the army and the
navy. But the Admirals tell us that
this is not true; that the most serious
deficiency in the navy is the shortage
of officers.
Admiral Fletcher's dispatch. how
ever. in an incidental way, shows that
tire is more alarming deficiency
than that. The shortage of $40 coal
passers, 81 machinists mates. As
quartermasters, 80 gunners' mates, 80
boatswains, 62 electricians and so yeo-
men may be inconvenient, but it is not
vital. The shortage of "A ships cooks
threatens the effectiveness of the en-
tire fleet.
