. SIOUX FALLS. S. D.( Aug. 9. (Special
Telegram.) Judgo Garland of tho United
States court lato this afternoon filed hla
decision In tho cclobratcd South Dakota
railroad cane. Ills decision Is In substance
tin follows:
Tho Hchcdttle of maximum rates of
charges for the transportation of frelfsht
nnd passengers adopted, fixed and estab
lished by thn Hoard of Hallroad Commis
sioners of South Dakota Is hold to bo In
violation of tho constitution of tbo United
States, in this, towlt: That tho schedule,
If enforced, would oporato to tako tho
property of tho railroad without Just com
pensation, without duo process of law, and
would doprlvo It of tho cquaf protection of
tho laws".
It 1b hold that tho schrdulo adopted by
tho railroad commUsloners would not af
ford tho railroad companies reasonable
compensation for tho service performed.
Tho railroad commissioners nnd their suc
cessors, agents, etc., nro perpetually en
joined and restrained from putting Into
effect or attempting or claiming to put
Into effect t'ho schedule of freight and pas
senger rates adopted by tho board. It Is
ordered that tho railroad company recover
of tho commissioners Its costs, to bo taxed,
together with Its disbursements necessarily
incurred.
Judgo Carland further decides that when
circumstances have changed so that the
ratos adopted In tho schcdulo shall yield
tho railroad company reasonablo compensa
tion for tho sorvlco performed tho board
of Hallroad Commissioners, can apply to his
court by supplemental bill or othorwlso for
n further order In that behnlf.
The case has been In tho courts since 1897
nnd wns onco decided In favor of the com
missioners. On appeal to tho United States
Bupremo court, however, the cuso was re
manded to tho lower court with Instructions
to nppolnt h master In chancery to ascer
tain the railroad campantcs' earnings, In
order to nrrlvo at tho equities In tho caso.
This Investigation has been going on for
somo tlmo and a report of tho special
master was filed last June. It Is upon this
report that tho prcsont decision Is based.

CUMBERLAND, Wis., Aug. 9. The Chi
cago, St, Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha rail
way will tnp tho upper Michigan Iron
country. It has surveyed a line from hero
to Rico Lake, whero It will connect with
tho Birch Lake branch, now building. Thla
will be the western terminus for tho pres
ent. Tho lino will bo 125 miles long.
Another attempt Is to be made to open
N street to the river. This tlmo there Is an
entire change of tactics. A local attorney
stated yesterday that he had prepared pa
pers which ho expects to file with tho dis
trict court today asking that the city bo
restrained from using tho N street sewer.
It Is alleged In tho petition that tho
sewer, which empties Into a natural stream
at Nineteenth and N streets, Is a nuisance.
To verify this samples of the sewage havo
been bottled and will bo Introduced as evi
dence, Tho bottles show that the sewer Is
far from being a good ono and that disease
Is liable to spread by allowing this sewage
to run through portions of tho city to tho
river through a creek.
A number of damage suits aro already
on file In tho district court citing the city
to nppear and show cause why this nuisance
should not bo abated and reimburse prop
erty owners for losses Incurred by reason
of their Inability to rent houses on account
of tho open sower.
At least a dozen property owners havo
combined In this light nnd employed one at
torney to push tho case. Tho Idea Is to
compel tho city to not only completo tho
N otrcet sewer to tho rlvor, but to open tho
street ns well.
Tho N street sewer, which extends from
Twenty-fourth nnd N streets to Nlncteecnth
nnd N streets, wns constructed In 1893, the
purpose being to comblno n storm wntcr
nnd sanitary tewer. A couple of yenrs ago
there was a bad washout ot Twentieth and
N strcots nnd City Engineer Heal recom
mended that the aower bo extended to Nine
teenth street. This was dono and for a
tlmo there was no complaint, as tho over
flow from tho Curo mineral springs purified
tho stream to a great extent. When tho
Jungmann school was completed sewor con
nections wero mode, and nt tho samo tlmo
connections with two or three saloons on
Twentieth street. In addition to these con
nections several residents havo secured per
mits to mako sanitary connections, and now
tho overflow from tho springs Is not largo
enough to carry tho sewage to tho river.
The nttorney who Is attempting to forco
tho city to extend this Bewcr to tho rl r via
tho Injunction routo said yesterday that It
would bo useless to construct tho proposed
extension until tho street Is graded. This
really Is the primary object of tho Injunc
tion. Tlmo nfter tlmo attempts have been
mado to secure signatures of property own
ers for tho grading of N street from Twen
tieth street enst, but complications have
nlwnys nrlscn. Somo of tho proporty Is
owned by persons In California, while other
tracts nbuttlng aro In litigation. When
Jack Watklns was secretory of tho Com
mercial club ho worked for several months
In on endeavor to clear up tho titles and
secure signatures eo that tbo Btrcet could
be opened and a sower built. County Com
missioner Hoctor also took n hand In tho
deal, and for a tlmo It looked ns If ho
wotld bo cucccssful, but tho property was
at thnt time too much Involved and ho gnvo
It up as a bad Job.
Only In consideration of the grading of
tho street nnd tho construction of n sewtr,
said tho nttorney, will the prosecution be
dropped.
Tho city has in a measure forestalled this
nctlon by opening negotiations for the Halo
of bonds to construct this sower. Fresldent
Adklns of tho city council stated some tlmo
ago that he favored tho voting of $10,000 In
bonds for tho extension of tho sewer. Noth
ing, however, was said nt the tlmo nbout
tho grading of the Btrcet.
Engineers sny that a sewer cannot bo
successfully constructed until the street Is
graded. When tho grading Is completed It
will bo necessary to excavnto for a eowcr.
but when such a sewer Is laid In tho man
ner outlined It will bo good for many years
Oppnalupr Pnyiiirnt of Tnxcs.
Ofllclals of tho city Htated yesterday that
certain attorneys nro writing letters to tax
payors urging that certain taxes, most spo
clal, bo not paid. Tho reason given is that
tho ordinances under which these special
taxes wero levied aro not considered valid.
Even since W. C. I.nmhert hns bfen In
charge of the legal department of tho city
an especial effort has been mado to pre
paro ordinances' of this nnturo In such n
manner that the courts could not find n
flaw. Tho passage of theso ordinances has
also been looked after with care. It Is
tho Intention of the city legal department
to carry nil such contested special tnx
enses to tho supremo court.
Coplr of Chnrter.
A month or two ago tho public printers

1, The book Is not rendy nnd ndvlces re

effect that there Is no telling when tha ses
sion laws will be given to the public. City
officials aro anxious to secure a corrected
copy of the new chnrter In order that tho
samo may bo printed In pamphlet form for
distribution hero. It Is thought that quite
a number of copies of tho charter could ba
sold providing tho city plnccd the price at
not more than $1. This mattor Is to ha
taken up at the next council meeting.
