W > tbo fact that the recent decision of the
United States supreme court perpetually en-
joints the board or the defendant companies
from reducing rates below what they were In

MANORRSON MOVES DISMISSAL.
At the afternoon session General Mander-
on filed the following motion :
Now como the defendants , Ihe Chicago
Burlington & Qulncy Hnllroad companj
find , the H. & M. Railroad company In Ne
tir . < ka. and move. the State Umnl of Trans
portutlon to illsmlfH tills complaint am
causi' , for the1 reasons follciAliiK :
" 1. That the State Hoard of Transportation
It without jurlnllc Ion or power to entcrtnlt
this complaint.
2. That the complaint nnd cause shouli
be dismissed because of facts aippearlni
upon the recor'i.
3. That the- State Board of Transportntloi
nml the defendants herein have been am
nru enjoined bv the mandate and decre
of the United States circuit court In nni
ifor the district of Nebraska , which orde
of Injunction has l > H-n affirmed by the su
prcmo court of the United State * , nnd o
which Injunction the State Board of Trans
portatlon hast full cognizance and know !
edge , and which paid Injunction la now I :
lull foioo and effect.
4. That the only jurisdiction and trlbunn
for hearing the complaint herein , or an
Plmllar complaint , Is In th United State
court according to the- effect and In th
manner prescribed by the supreme coui
ot the United Static In the case of Con
rt'nntlno J Smyth , attorney general , el n
constituting1 the Hoard cf Transportation c
Nebraska ct al. appellants , against Olive
Ames et al , decided ( it the October tern
1S97 , by the supreme court of the Unite
State" .
The entire afternoon was consumed In th
discussion of this mollon. The principal ai
gument WOB made by General Mandcrsoi
who said that under the mandate of the su
lirenio court It would be a farce to go o
with this hearing. The board had no authoi
Ity or power to act and any finding It mlgh
make would bo worthless. It would merel
consume the time of the secretaries of th
board , "and what was much more valuibh
the itlmo of the attorneys. " Ho said ths
there was no reason at this tlmo for an
u.ch complaint as hod been fllcd. At n
"tlmo In the history of the stale had th
relations between the companies and the pec
pie been more aa.lsfactory , and a worlhles
complaint , whether for pDllllcal purposes c
In good falt'.i , should not bo taken up whc
It could amount to nothing In the end. I
< bls opinion the "disturbances brought abou
by political malcontents wcro In the ercalcs
degree censurable , and should be elampe
under foot by the officers of the atate. " Th
mandate of the court pointed out the enl
manner In which a reduction of rates coul
be effected , and It was folly to go on wit
the present hearing. He said that none (
the companies would object > to an Inqulr
Into their affaire , and would offer every fa
clllty to the board , or to experts employe
Iby It. but that "thla Tibbies absurdity" wt
not the proper proceeding.
OFFER BOOKS FOR INSPECTION.
The other attorneys for the corporation
endorsed .General Mandcrson's remarks an
offered to open the books ot their companli
to the full examination ot the board , bi
they protested against the waste ot time c
the present fruitless proceeding.
Attorney G. W. Bcrgo for the complalnai
ergucd that the proper way would .be to s
ahead and ascertain whether or not the ratt
were too high , and then decide If the boat
ought to or bad power to act. He said the ]
was no disposition other than to bo fa'
with the companies' .
This seemed to be In accord with the pr <
gram mapped out , as Chairman Edgcrton i
the board of secretaries announced ttat tl
motion would bo overruled and the boar
. would proceed with the testimony. He , hov
ever , observed that It would be better to ni
journ over until tomorrow. This brougl
out a protest , from the attorneys , who pa !
that It was 'preposterous to go ahead \vl ;
the farce. If the officers of the ro.id wei
brought before the court to testify they coul
give very little Information , as they con
not bo expected to carry an accurate table <
figures In their he-ads. The only sensible wa
would be for the board to put Its queRtlai
