telegram to Berlin, and although thli

likely sequel to yetserday's Informa

tatad from tha bench that while an
Injunction agalnat the road had not been
decided upon, he did not aea bow the
granting of a restraining order could do
aity harm.
There was a talk about the bond that
would be.requ'rcd. but no action was
taken relative as to what tha amount
should be. .Attorney General Reed and
the member ' of the commlaitlon ex
pressed the opinion that It Should ' be

Ing a ticket at any station, be given a
rtowlpt for tha exoeaa fare, and that an
account of this excess be kept In the
offices of . Receiver Bush In Bt. Ixjula.
This, however, was decided to be too
cumbersome .a plan, requiring too much
detail, and tha matter was left to be
dtterralnrd when action for or agulnst
granting the tejnporary order la deter
m'ned. Just why he aaked. no one seemed to

"1 cannot enter Into any such agree,

"That a right." replied tha court, "you

During the afternoon, much of the
time was devoted to arguments of whr
are fair ratea for hauling Intrastate
pa.eengera, and whether or not the Mla
urt factflc la losing money on doing
luauienRer business on tha basis of 1

cominuniifn. This, however, was not
Vouched, or pacwd upon by the Judgea

Tlie contention of Mr. Reed Is that ths

In support of their contentions attor
neys for the Mlsiourl Paciflo assert be
fore the court that on the Nebraaka
lines prior to 1907 there waa Icaa paesi.-n-ger
business than now, but then It was
handled at a profit, whereas now there
I a losa of revenue In the traffic. It
Is asserted that In 1914 th Nebraska lines
carried 10 per cent more pasaongora than
during 1907, the laat year when the i
cent per nilla rate waa In effect, yet the
revenue waa t per cent lesa.
Same ef the Fiaarea.
Dealing with reports, statements and
balancea attorneys for the Missouri Pa
cific contended that on the Nebraska line
for the fiscal year ending Juno SO, 1914,
the paasenger bualness showed a deficit
of 1108.111 and for the fiscal year end
ing 1915, a deficit of $1M,78.
It was contended that In Nebraska the
Missouri Pacific has an Investment of
approximately 112,000,000 and not only did
this money fall to earn Interest, but It
Inst ths company 128,000. In other words,
by 14 per cent, tha road failed to earn
operating expenses and Interest
For the railroad the claim la made that
the sroaa revenue received from Intra
state paaaengera Is an average of but M
cents, while from Interstate passengers
It Is $1.40, and that the actual cost of
carrying one passenger per mile Is 1.13
cents, gross, creating a deficit on each
passenger hauled.
While rates for carrying passengers
have been reduced one-third since tha
J-cent per mile law went Into effeot. It
la the contention of the attorneys for th
Missouri Paciflo that all expenses have
been Increased; for Instance, It Is alleged
that in 19U0 the Nebraska payroll of the
road was isw.000 and in 19 H it was In
creased to 1.M7.M0
An array of figures was presented, deal

Adoo, returning today from a trip to the

vinced that the country had entered upon
an era of the greatest prosperity In Its
history. Secretary McAdoo said tha in
dustrial and commercial activity of the
country was based prlmarty on the na

HASTINGS HERE IN FORCE
FOR STATE CONVENTION
Superintendent - Ever hart and fifty
teachers of the Hasting schools are here
for the stats convention. Last year the
Hastings school board declined to dismiss
the schools for the Omaha convention,
some of the buslnea men of that town
maintaining that the stats meeting of
the teachers meant only a shopping and
sightseeing trip.
The school board, however, became con
vinced that I lasting could not afford to
hold out and loae th many advantagsa
offered at thla great convention. At a
meeting of the board yeaterday the
schools, were ordered dismissed and the
teachers allowed to attend tha convention.
France Joins Its
Allies in Putting
Pressure on China
I'BKINO, China, Nov. S.-France has
given support to the representations made
to China by Japan, Great Britain and
Russia concerning the advisability of
postponing tha decision as to re-eatab-llshment
of a monarchy. Although the
French government waa not represented
In the original action, and accordingly
waa believed to have decided to abstain
from participation, today the French min
ister, A. H. Conty, called at the foreign
office. He gave verbal ratification of tha
requent of the other three powers.
Notwithstanding the declination of the
Chinese government to postpone the de
cision, on the ground that the matter
now rests In the hands of the people, It
is possible that the actual change In the
form of government If decided upon may
not be made for some time. There Is an
unverified rumor that If the election now
In progress results in favor of a mon
archy, coronation of the emperor will be
delayed until the conclusion of the Euro
pean war.
Discussing the refusal of the United
States to support ths Japanese represen
tations, the Peking News, which reflects
ths views of the government, says edi
torially: "Had America acquiesced to the pres
sure upon China at thla critical moment
the country bent upon predatory adven
ture under the never falling guise of
'maintaining peace fn the far east' would
havs been encouraged. America is evi
dently watching events attentively, which
may be disquieting to othe'rs, but Is a
source of comfort and encouragement to
China."
