CIRCUIT COURT
 GIVES DECISION
 IN SOPHIA CASE
Federal Judge Neterer Up- held Relative to Funds
 to Estates

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct A. The United States Circuit Court of Appeals has affirmed the de- cision of Federal Judge Jeremiah Neterer, of Seattle, that estates of $50 persons who died in the wreck of the steamship Sophia, in Lynn Caapl, near Juneau, Alaska, in 1918, should receive but $643. 40 from the Canadian Pacific Rail- way.
 The appellants asked $350,000.
 The Canadian Pacific received insurance and this will be included in the amount paid the estates of those drowned when the vessel struck on Vanderbilt Reef, Lynn Canal, in blinding snow storm.
 The Court held the insurance money belonged to the company since the owners were not required to carry it for protection to the passengers.
 The court also ruled there were no defects in the lifeboats and they were not lowered until the ship began to break up because of roughness of the sea, winds and snow.

$40. In 1880. the two months re-
ceipts totaled $82,550, and compensa-
ton payments $80,389.
1T will be observed, therefore, !"
Wenzel explained, that 1892, al
though showing reductions in the
number of accidents, is continuing
to show losses over premiums.
Whether this is due to further let
down in business activity or to re-
duction in wages Is immaterial from
a compensation standpoint. The fact
is that we are not yet gaining an in
come sufficient to take care of the
losses, not to mention overhead and
reserves.
What is particularly noticeable Is
that June and July are worse than
the other five months of 1892 and
considerably worse than June and
July Of 1881 or June and July of
1880. Whatever efforts are being put
forth to check accident frequency,
they are not sufficient. Accident
prevention work must be stressed to
the utmost. If this is not done, there
are only two courses of action open
to the people of North Dakota: to
pay yet higher rates Of premium, or
to again reduce the benefit sched-
ules."

MISTAKES IN LOVE,

Intimate Experiences Of Mar
rage CounselIing Bureau
Are Unfolded

New York, Aug. 23.-P,-Mistakes
in love- making, bad home making,
and failure to use leisure time con-
structively" were blamed for Ameri-
can marriage failures Tuesday before
the third international congress of
eugenics.
The three points summarize the in
innate experiences of one of the few
marriage-counselling bureaus in the
world, the institute of family relations
of Los Angeles. Paul Popenoe, direc-
tor, presented the findings.
-. Not every love-making difficulty
leads to a broken home, he said, but
in 'our experience" almost every such
home is preceded by one And "sev-
eral studies agree in suggesting that
at least In the educated part of the
population" these difficulties exist
in Is per cent or more of marriages
at any one time"
Popenoe advocated more sound edu-
hood and said:
Unfortunately. the trend of educa-
ton during the last generation has
been unfavorable, because the domin-
ance of doctrinary feminist point
OF view has led to a depreciation of the
differences between the sexes and
frequently to ignoring them or deny
ing them altogether"
Note 'raralyzing Fears

"paralyzing fears" of desertion among
many women and some men, mono

Of this sort.
Repatriation of controversies and

up patterns of failure in the public
mind, and patterns of success are

RAILROAD TO
Fight FOR Rate CUT
Will Urge |. c. c. to Adopt Re-
mort of Examiner in North
Dakota Case

II the interstate commerce COM
mission accepts the recommendations
Of an examiner who proposed reduced
rates on butter, eggs, dressed poultry
and live poultry from North Dakota
to eastern destinations, shippers IN
the state will save approximately
5000 900, according to figures an
nounced Tuesday by the North Da-
kota railroad commission.
The commission will participate IN
oral arguments when the report Of
U. S. Butler, chief examiner for the
I. G. c., Is considered.
Reduced rates were published by
order Of the I. G. c., effective Dec. 8,
1881, but the railroads Immediately
filed petitions for restoration of the
former rates In some instances, and
for certain increases. The reductions
ordered amounted to as much as $2O7
q minimum carload, with the average
reduction about 500 a car, Ben G.
Larkin, chairman of the state COM
mission, said.
At hearings, representatives Of the
North Dakota railroad commission
opposed the increases.
"Mr. Buffers report is not final and
is subject to exceptions and oral ar
guments before the interstate COM
merce commission in Washington, y
Larkin said. Ordinarily, however,
an examiners proposed report is
given great weight by the I. G. c.,
and his recommendation are usu-
ally followed. The North Dakota
railroad commission will appear in
oral argument and follow this case
to the end that North Dakota dairy
products shippers will not lose this
100000 q year saving in freight
charges by restoration of the former
unreasonably high rates.
