FRANCIS JOSEPH REIGN
is LONGEST in HISTORY.

The death of Francis Joseph is a
remarkable climax to the long list
of tragedies in the Hapsburg family
a list unparalleled in any other
reigning house in Europe. He dies
in the midst of the worlds greatest
war. which he himself largely
brought about by his determination
to avenge the act of assassination of
his heir, the Archduke Francis Ferd-
nand, as the result of an alleged
Serbian conspiracy, while on state
visit TO Bosnia on June 2S, 1914.

ADAMSON ACT HELD
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
BY JUDGE ". {. HOOK
Test of Eight Hour
Will be Hurried to
Supreme Court
ORIGIN AL S UT
Brought By Missouri, Okla
& Gulf Line Decided to-
day in K c. Court

Kansas City, Mo.-The Adamson
"eight hour" law was held unconsti-
tutional here today by Judge Will
liam c. Hook in United States district
court. Judge Hook directed the re-
and Gulf railway, who brought the
original action to enjoin he operation
Of the Adamson law, to assist the gov
eminent to eNpediate the case to the
supreme court for a final decision.
He instructed them to invite repre-
sentatives of every railroad in the
country to participate in the hearings
before the higest court.
This was requested in the govern
ment's motion to dismiss the injunc-
tion petition of the railroad, the gov
ernment desiring to avoid prolonged
unnecessary and scattered litigation
through the hearing of the countless
similar suits filed by every rail sys-
, tenn in every federal district in the
United States, through which their
lines run.
1t is expected that the ultimate de-
cision al to whether the law will go
pinto effect January / will be handed
down before then. The transcript OF
the present case will be filed with the
supreme cour before it reconvenes
December a.
In rendering his decision, Judge
Hook took notice of the fact that the
government motion. which precipi-
,tated the action today in the injunc
tion proceedings against the law
brought by the Missouri Oklahoma
e Gulf railway, was filed only yes
terday and that a decision was de-
sired today. While declaring it far
from agreeable" for judge to rem
der a decision without the delibera-
tion which would stand in every cir
cumstance. the Judge, in order to
eXpediate the case, entered a decree
for the plaintiff railroad.
Neither the attorneys for many
large railroad systems nor the array
of government counsel present would
comment on the courts decree as to
whether ii was regarded as a victory
on one hand or a setback on the
other. Apparently both sides re-
sarded the case as a means of has
tening a decision by the supreme
court, which is the final arbiter.
