HILL ROAD GETS CAUGHT Burlington Fined for Violating Safety Appliance Law. KNOWING DETECT NO DEFENSE Rallagr of Joda-e T. C, Meager, Wkit Its oa This erlea of Cases la the Valte. States Coajrt, The trial of the safety appliance cases instituted by the United States against the various railway companies at Omaha for violation of the safety appliance act was concluded Saturday morning before Judge T. C. Munger In the United States district Court. 1 , The Intt case tried was against the Chi cago, Burlington Qulncy railway, two suits being joined, comprising four counts. The testimony In this case was finished Friday evening and on Saturday morning Judge T. C. Munger Instructed the jury to return a verdict for the government on the four counts. In his decision Judge Munger said: , "The court finds that knowledge of the existence of the defective appliance Is not an element of defense, nor can It so be recognized." The penalty for each offense Is $100 and under the Judgment given Saturday morning the Burlington will have to pay a bulk fine of 1100. ' There yet remains one case against the Burlington to be disposed of, which In cludes seventeen counts embodying seven teen separate offenses. This case has been continued until later In the term, or It may not be tried until the January term of the federal courts. Assistant Attorney General L. M. Wal ter, special attorney for the Interstate Com merce commission, and party, who have had charge of these cases, returned to Washington Buturday evening. He will next go to Cairo, 111., for the trial of sim ilar cases there. Cases Disposed Of. The cases thus far heard and disposed of at Omaha are: United Btates against the Missouri Pa cific, one count in favor of the government and one count In favor of the railroad. United Btates against the Chicago & Northwestern, submitted on demurrer. United States against the Union Pacific, defendants confess judgment; fined $100. United States against Union Stock Yards Company, South Omaha, case taken under adviaement of court. United States against Chicagn, Burling ton & Qulncy, two cases Joined; Judgment for government on four counts; fined, $400. United States against Chicago, Burling ton St. Qulncy, seventeen counts; case con tinued. The decision of Judge T. C. Munger In the Burlington case ts regarded as of vital Importance In this and like cases, as It disposes of the question of "knowledge of existence of defect" that has hitherto been 1 the favorite Issue of the defense. ' This, judge Munger holds, is no defense and 'cannot enter Into the consideration of these cases. Eight era Inspectors at Work. Thd Interstate Commerce commission has eighteen inspectors employed In the work of Inspecting the 2,000,000 freight and other oars of the railway systems of the coun try to establish the faot of defect of the car or engine during the movement of the train. These eighteen Inspectors are ex perts drawn from the railway service and are constantly engaged and must traverse the entire extent of the country and their work Is constantly colossal. The Interstate Commerce commission has already Instituted' over 1.500 suits against the, railway companies of the country for the violation of the safety appliance act and continues the inspection of moving trains. Assistant Attorney General Walter and his assistants carry with them elabprate and complete working models of freight cars, cars of all kinds, engines and railway tracks and such other models as may be necessary In the proper presentation of these , cases. Another question came up in the trial ef the cases at Omaha which relates to the standard, maximum height of drawbars . and coupling apparatus from the tracks. These, under the safety appliance act and according to the American Railway asso ciation, must be thirty-four and one-half Inches, with an allowance for a slight variation of not more than three Inches In loaded cars that may happen to be coupled with empty cars. It is on this question of variation that the undecided cases are now under advisement by the court. SUIT AGAINST I'.MOX PACIFIC Action Filed for Vlolatloa of Tweaty-Elgbt-Hoar Law.

This Is not tho first timo in history that Casablanca has been a storm center nor the first time that it haa been reduced to ruins. It has more than once been rebuilt after all but total destruction, and It is likely Ahot It will rise again whin the present' troubles are over. It has a true reason for existence. It is essential to the commerce of Morocco and it is capable of becoming an important port If the empire could only enjoy a few years of peace and order In which to de velop Ha trade. Not that the harborage is especially good at Casablanca. There Is, In fact, but a par tially protected roadstead. There are times when vessels lying there have to lift their anchors and put so sea for safety. But it la about as available as anything along that wild Atlantic - coant, and It has many, com pensating advantages for what It lacks in security. ' . The city was once called Anla, and Its antiquity runs back of Its recorded history. It was a considerable place when in 146g the Portuguese captured It, sacked it and practically wiped it off the map. In 1515. however, the Invaders themselves realised the Importance of the site. They rebuilt the town and it was they who called It Cas ablanca: the Arab name for It la Par-el-Beida. The Portuguese held It only a short time. As they lost their hold on . their African conquests It full once again Into the hands of the Moors, In 1755 it was devastated by, theS same earthquake which reduced Lisbon to ruins, and long afterward remained a pitiful fish ing hamlet, squalid and poverty stricken, but toward the end of the eighteenth century il attracted the attention of spine Spanish speculators and tliey secured concession from the sultan, 8idl Mohammed, to export cereals from It as well as from Fedala and Ma lagan. From this time It began to raise lis head again. It grew In population and wealth. It was gradually rebuilt and pres ently fortified. .As the outlet for the rich and fertile region of Craouia It developed a considerable trade. Just before the French bombardment it was, after Tangier, the most Important seaport of Morocco and It had a population variously estimated at from 30,uuo to 40.0U) Inhabitants, of whom from 600 to N0O were JCuropeans principally French, Spaniards. Germans and English. The city lies in the hollow of deep and spacious bay 'between rocky promontories upon which the swell of the Atlantic breaks unceasingly from year's end to year's end. Ships that anchor in the bay are well pro tected from westerly winds, but are com pletely exposed to those from the north. Jf the view of Casablanca from the sea Is grim and uninviting, the approach from Inland ts altogether charming, according to a recent French travelle. The place la bordered on the land side by a wide space The absolute necessity of raising over S100,00tf to nay off the estate of our late partner, Arthur C. Mueller, has brought about conditions which has forced us to inaugurate THE GREATEST Ever Conducted 1 & 1UELIM mew mi im mi i n 1 1 ' 11 """"" '" I I of gardens having the characteristic Orien tal, subtrophlcal charm. . Amid the palm trees the whitewashed houses and minarets glisten In the African ,sun., The deep green of the shrubberies rests, the eye and trees reduce the glare on the sandy roads as the travoller approaches, the city gates with their old time battlemented towers. The Inviting aspect of Casablanca, hqw ever, is altogether external." Within the walls 11 Is a maxe of narrow, crooked, more or less filthy streets. The houses are neither Spanish nor 'Mauresque, but a sort of characterless hybrid. Hundreds of them are mere hovels and large districts are given up to sheds in which sheepskins and goat kins, bales of wool and sacks of grain are stored to await shipment.
