SUPREME COURT
Q N LONG GRIND
Impsrtant Cases Goir.s

Enough to Consume Time of Court for
Two Years One of First Cases to
Be Taken Up Will Be Bath Tub
Trust Suit.
Washington, Oct. 14. The supreme
court of the United States began Its
annual eight-month term today, being
tho first of the governmental machines
to resume activity this fall.
Absence of President Taft from the
city will result in disappointment of
tne customary visit of the Justices to
the White House. Ordinarily nothing
more than this visit would occupy the
attention of the court on the open
ing day, but It is probable that Chief
Justice White will take advantage of
the opportunity to make a gain on the
docket by allowing attorneys to file
such motions as they may have pre
pared. There are now 800 cases docketed,
enough to consume the time of the
court for two years, If It did nothing
else.
Argument of a number of Important
cases will engage the attention of the
court after today. One of the first
cases to be taken up will be the so
called "bath tub" trust suit. After
that the court will listen to a second
argument of the "Inter-mountain rata
case," Involving transcontinental
rates to Spokane and Rocky mountain
cities.
A series of specially assigned cases
will test the validity of contracts by
nilroads and express cases limiting
the shipments of goods entrusted to
them for transportation In Interstate
cars.
For the second time the court will
hear late In the week or during the
following week the validity of the In
dlctments of James Patten and others
on charges of conspiracy to violate the
Sherman anti-trust law by running a
corner on cotton on the New York Cot
ton exchange.
No decisions will be announced by
the court In all probability until Mon
day, Oct. 21. A number of Important
cases havo been under advisement
during the summer. Among these,
forty-five "state rate cases," or "two
cent fare cases," the Union Pacific
merger suit and the "hard coal case."
Because of the vast nmount of work
Involved In the atate rate cases, a de
cision In them Is not expected until
later In the term.
ISTHM'AN TRAFFIC GROWS

Washington. Oct. 14 Commerce be

merce ,ind la'mr show that this tramc
has tie'Mrt !n value in tne last iour
years. Prior to 1007 all merchandise
passim between the eastern and west
em coasts of the United States by
way of the Isthmus utilized the Pan
ama railway. At the beginning of 1307,

since Unit date this trnfflc. on both the
Paiinnn and Tehuantepec railway
linen, has grown very rapidly and
amounted In the fiscal year 1912 to
$12.000.000 In value, against S3fi.000,
000 In 1908. These figures, which In
clude only domestic merchandise pass
lng by way of the Isthmus between the
eastern and western coasts of the
United States suggest that a still
greater growth in this traffic between
the eastern and western coasts Is like
ly to develop with the opportunity for
vessel shipments wjthout breaking

with the opening of tho Panama canal.
