Proper Jurisdiction.

Dallas. Feb. 23.-The receivership
suit brought against the Texas & Pa
cific Railway company by the Bank
ers Trust company of New York, was
dismissed by Judge E. R. Meek in
the United States district court here
today on the grounds of lack of juris-
diction.
The dismissal order also applied to
the New Orleans Pacific railroad, a
co-defendant in the receiverShip pro-
ceedings. Decision on this phase of the
case had been reserved by Judge Meek
until the entire cause had been ar
Gued In dismissing The suit Judge
Meek acted on a motion of the rail-
road, answering The bill of complaint
as filed by the Bankers Trust COM
pany. Trial of the case on its merits
was never reached.
In announcing his decision Judge
Meek said he had grave doubts as to
whether the act of 1915, as contended
by the defendants, applied to this case.
The act of 1915 gave state courts jur-
iSdiction i'll suits against railways in
corporated under an act Of congress.

BLAMES WAR ON GERMANY

Petrograd, Feb. 23.-Addressing the
duma. Foreign Minister Sazonoff re-
viewed the war situation in a most
optimistic way. although he declared
it was more difficult now to foresee
the end of the world struggle.
1.-The imperial government remains
mistaken in its determination to con-
tinue the struggle to conquer the
enemy" he said.
This war is the greatest crime, of
high treason against humanity. Those
who provoked it bear a heavy respon-
sibility and today stand entirely un-
masked.
Germany Unmasked.
I'VE know who it is that let loose
the misfortunes without number wit
which. Europe is oppressed. Even
German public opinion is beginning to
realize that German people have been
duped by those who thought the hour
had come to realize the dreams of
plunder and rapine they cherished so
long.
when dealing with an enemy like
Germany we must take thought in
good time how best to prevent the
repetition of the events which occurred
so rapidly eighteen months ago. The
instinct of self preservation demands
putting an end to the ruthless egoism
and passion for plunder which are the

THE upper elementary grades are
being departmentalized and the

Within the high school there is also
urgent need for reorganization. The

the National Association of Teachers
agencies were warned by Professor
Judd that the rise Of teachers agencies

More than 1000 delegates have been
enrolled and prospects are that the at
tendance will pass the 5000 mark.
