When Mrs. Philips goes to see her boy she whispers in low tonea to him while the Jailer Is not near. - She seems to have something to tell blm about Jamea, and the sheriffs officers would like to know what passes between mother and son. 1 They discredit her story that she thinks her son has kilted iUmself. . They bUve Will and hla mother know a great deal k more about the accuaed murderer thau T anybody elae. " . The story the mother told about think ing her son dead Is the same one Will told ? when first placed In Jail. To the sheriff It looks as though the mother and son are trying to make the officers believe this i story with the expectation that the hunt , for Jamea will be abandoned. Mrs. Philips Is making a great effort ' to have her son Will released from Jail, but , the officers will hold him, for from him they expect soma time to get a confeaaion that will lead to the capture of the ac cused brother. ' Who red Philips f The officers pursuing the aearch for . ; Jamea Philips received another clue that led to the belief that he la still In the vicinity of Omaha. Former friends of Philips living near his home In Florence are said to have given him something to tat Friday.

LOCAL RATE CASE NATIONAL Nebraska Test of New Laws Attracts Country-Wide Attention. AGREEMENT ON THE HEARING Railroads aad State Decide on the First Week la September aa Tlate to Take the Teatlmear. Aa ag-Teriink haa been reached be tween Attorney General Thompson, rep resenting the state of Nebraska and Judge W. D. McHugh, representing the railroad, whereby testimony will be taken In the Nebraska rate cases the first week In September. Two years ago the Nebraska legialature enacted a 2 cent passenger levy and also reduced freight rates. The railroads put the S cent rate Into effect without much of a contest, although they have maintained their standing In court that they might con test the rates. During the last two years the railroads have been Keeping complete records of the comparative earnings under the 2 cent law and have these figures ready for the hearing In the case. Railroad men and statesmen all over the country are watching the outcome of the Nebraska rase with great Interest, as Judge McHugh will raise some points which will have a bearing on the rate situation all over the United States. In the coming fight Judge McHugh will contend that the reduction of rates by a state interferes with Interstate rates and thus Interferea with Interstate commerce and that a atate haa no right to make a rate within Its borders that will upset the Interstate rates governing some city across the border. The contention will be that the subject of rate making and rate control should rest entirely with the United States govern ment and that the States should not be permitted to make rates Interfering with the rates between the several states, f re claim will be set up that It la be end the power of the atate to make rates which will Interfere with lntt rxlate rales. - BRIEF CITY NEWS 909 AUOUST '909 Sun mon rue wed tnu mi sat l02 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 II 12 13 14 15 16 17 13 19 20 21 22 23 242526 27 28 293031 Matrimonial Insurance is New -ItO- ' t n ri - (I 1T !kv i UNIFORM LAWS FOR RISK MEN Insurance Committee of National Bar Association, Headed by Breek earlda.

Matrimonial Insurance," said John Steele. "Is a sort of tontine proposition. The ftrBt man to take the long leap gets the whole pot. There are no companies operating this game In Nebraska now that know of." Mr. Steele spoke In answer to a question prompted by a dispatch to Auditor Bar ton at Lincoln from a New Xoik paper, aakllng how many companies were en gaged tn this business iu Nebraska. Matrimonial Insurance?" echoed an other man in the risk business. "Never heard of It. What does It Insure, a man's domestic happiness? They would go broke quickly. It might be to Insure a man's getting a wife. 'The policy would call for a spouse of such and such qualifications, say a viva' clous brunette or a plump blonde, pos sessed of a certain income and a lovlug disposition. But that would not be much different from a matrimonial bureau. 'To Insure a man being happy would be dangerous. Many men have been known to smash a finger or to fall down In order to collect accident Insurance, and with the hymeneal kind all be would have to do would be to kick up a row, throw a plate as hla wife or something of the sort.
