f the Missouri I'aclfie railroad against
the city of Omrtha was decided In favor
of the city by Judge T. C Munger In fed
eral court today. The railroad company
had sued to prevent the Omaha city coun
cil from compelling the construction of a
viaduct over t:.e Melt Line at Forty-fifth
and Dodge streets and asserted that their
property rights would be violated. The
company was willing to build a foot and
wagon bridge for street cars, which would
cost about t-AOno more. Evidence in the
hearing of the case showed that 90 per
cent of the trafflo of that point Is by per
ns In street rare going to and from
lnindee. and that 2K cars each day cross
the tracks at that point.
The court held that the Incidental ad
vantage from the viaduct atatute to the
at reel railw ay company Is nothing as
against the validity of the statute and
cannot be held against It. It Is held to
be a recognised principle that where sev
eral parties using a crossing are responsl
Llt for It and any one of them may be
made to take the responsibility.

WASHINGTON, Jan. H.-Speaklng In be
half of 2.'iO.OOo employes actively engaged In
railroading, P. It. Morrlssey, president of
the American Railroad Employes and In
vestors' association today made a formal
statement to the Interstate Commerce Com
mission In support of the proposed advance
In freight rates by the railroads.
Mr. Morrlssey Is the chairman of a com
mittee representing the employes, consist
ing of George Brophy, conductor; R. K.
Kllpatrlck, conductor; H. F. Smith, bag
gageman, and R. N. Bullock, locomotive
engineer; T. J. Dolan of Chicago, general
secretary-treasurer of the International
Brotherhood of Steam Shovelmen, also
Joined In the statement. Scores of favoring
petitions from various branches of the
organized railroad labor were submitted to
the commission.
In presenting the statement and petitions
Mr. Morrlssey said: j
"The petitons and other expressions were
secured without connivance or coercion.
They Include both union and nonunion !
men. They represent the free expressions
of the employes."
"It might be urged," suggested Mr. Mor-
rissey "that these employes, not having
made r close investigation of the financial
situation or an analysis of the rate question
are not in a position to pass intelligently
on the subject.
"This may be technically true, but the
employes have a good general Idea of In
dustrial conditions in our country and they
have observed signs and conditions which
have Impressed them In a common-sense I
way with the belief that the railways are
entitled to greater compensation.
In no other Industry In your country is
labor so largely employed as on the rail
roads and none In which so large a propor
tion of gross earnings goes' directly' to
labor. Labor got S1.(KI6.34!),8 from the rail
roads In 1UC9, about 41 per cent of their
gross earnings. It Is estimated that labor
will get at least JW.iMiO.ooO more when the
Increases for 1M10 are added.
"The right of the railway worker to a
voice on a question that vitally concern
his welfare cannot be denied, nor can he
remain disinterested when theories are be
ing exploited which Involve his relation to
his employer, his safety or the earnings
that are the reward of the activities of his
brain and muscles.
"These active operating employes fet In
a comparative laoor sense 'good pay,' and
they will cont'nuc to ask for more if the
economic cond'iioiib of the country con- I
tinue to develop as they have In the last
ten yeors.
"They know that transportation has not
been a serious element !n Increasing the
cost of living, because rates generally have
not been Increased. They have learned the
small perctntuge the freight rate bears to
the selling price of the commoditlee they
eat and wear, and they reason the freight
rate is not an important factor in influenc
ing the price paid by the ultimate con
sumer. "Employe are vitally Interested In the
earnings of the roads. It Is the concern
of every man to know that the Institution
which employs him is kept In condition to
meet every obligation to him. This may be
styled selfish reasoning, but It Is Intensely
human and practical."
Referring to the arguments adancrd by
Louts D. Brandels In support of the Intro
duction of methods of scientific manage- '
nient of railway properties, through which
Mr. Brandels believes Jl.tKKJ.OoO a day could
be saved by t lie railways, Mr. Morrissey,
as a practical railroad man, said he did
i nut believe lhal American workincnien I
would labor under such cotiilllliins as he
thought such a system would impose on
