GOVERNMENT HAS
POWER TO CONTROL
THE STOCKYARDS
u. S. Supreme Court So
Rules in Decision
TODAY.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The Pack
ers and Stockyards Act, passed by
Congress in 1891 to give the Govern
ment regulation over the Chicago
stock yards, was declared constitu-
tional by the Supreme Court to-day.
The law was upheld on the ground
that operations at the Chicago stock
yard form a part of Interstate Com
merce, and that Congress thus has
authority to pass laws supervising the
yards.
Agents of the big Five" Packers,
in attacking the legality Of the Stock
yards Act, contended that the trans
actions at the Chicago yards have no
relation with commerce between two
States but are purely local deals.

Argument. was closed ON the appeal
last week and the decision Of the hhsh.-
est court in the State has been ex-
pected any day. 1t was after the suit
was started that the attorneys OF the
younger Mr.. Croker learned that Mrs.
Croker sr. was in possession OF every
thing that had been owned by the for
mer 14th Street chieftain.
Mr.. Croker said Frederick II
Ryan. attorney for Richard Croker
jr.," transferred everything he owned
to his wife long before there was any
trouble between him and his children.
This is a matter of record. l have
heard nothing of will of Mr.. Croker
and would be very surprised II he had
made one. as he had nothing to leave
to any one.
-Four actions had been brought on
behalf of the children. in addition to
that which sought to have him de-
clared incompetent. The first was
for some shares of w bash Railroad
stock, involving 81, 500 and which was
lost by Mr.. Croker and is now on
appeal. The second was for the re-
covery OF 400 shares of Westinghouse
Electric stock. and Mr.. Croker, be-
fore the completion of the suit.
handed over the stock.
1.-THE third action was to have BET
aside the revocation ~ Mr., Croker
Of the deed of trust executed by him
and his first wife. mother Of the chill
dren, which gave the girls Ethel and
Florence and the son Howard $4,000
year. Mr.. Croker also declared
of the trust, amounting TO $685. 600.
He lost this suit and it is now on APP
peal.
THE fourth action was for $l55, 900
paid out by Richard Croker jr.. for
his father, and this had not been.
brought to trial. Only two days ago.
l was notified by Mr.. Nathans Mr..
Croker's attorney. that his client
would Yme over here in 0Ssebs
to defer d this action, instead OF roIa-
pelling us TO go to Dublin to take
his deposition"
The Florida property, Mr.. Ryan
said. was held by Croker and his wife
in joint tenancy, but the husbands
half passed automatically TO his
widow upon mis- death.
Lawyers were discussing to-day
the probable effect of the appeal
should the Supreme Court of Florida,
adjudge the dead man incompetent
when he transferred h holdings to
his Indian wife. Rumors We're rife

camping spot is found on the main
highway one mile below Hanging lake.
A little farther in the canon the
Colorado Power company has blasted
tunnel through the solid rock for
three miles, and the water of the river
's carried through this tunnel where
1t is let down through spillways to
operate the turbines which furnish
electrical power for a large part of
Colorado. The current is taken from
this plant, nestled deep in the canon,
y! means of copper cables suspended
from the rock walls and appearing like
antennae of huge wireless station.
Once clear of the canon walls these
stretch straightway to Denver and
Colorado Springs.
Near the foot of this canon are
found the orchards and truck gardens
which give promise Of the community
nearby. A mile or two farther We
enter the city of Glenwood Springs
often heralded as the coming tourist
sity of the Colorado Rockies. It may
boast not only the largest outdoor hot
mineral bathing pool in the world, but
convenient mineral caves, not alone
for pleasure but for the building Of
health, incompatible mountain scenery
and hotel accommodations which are
the equal of those found in the finest
eastern hostelries.
The region abounds in scenic at
traction. Short trips by automobile,
horseback, or afoot are many and va
ried. The Fairy caves are reached
horseback by climbing three miles Of
graded trail. Mt. Lookout is reached
similarly and gives an incompatible

streams and lakes of the Roaring Fork,

points except the lakes high in the
~auntains are reached by automobile
over excellent highways on grade.
Conveniences for travel abound every
where and numerous roads, trails and
camping places are built and improved
so that many thousands Of visitors are
already being received annually.
Above and below Glenwood Springs
the valleys between the mountains are
farmed intensively. The productivity
of the soil is materially enhanced by
