Validity of the
Law is Attacked
Raili"oadrN"ot Satisfied with Carmack
Amendment to the Hepburn
Measure.
4 1 1 N' i TON'. Oct. Is The validity of
Hi Fri-VM "Carmack amendment" to the
Hepburn rat-1 law of IWM was today before
the supreme roiirt of the 1'niled States for
argument. Thia amendment makes the In
itial carrier of Intemtate commerce liable
for damages occurring in transportation,
rot only on Its own lines, but on connert
ins lines. The content Is probably the
greatest of all the legal controversies
which linve arisen nut of the passage of
the Hepburn rate law.
A Mac-king the const itutionality of the
law are the Atlantic (.'oast Line and the
l,niiis-lle Nashville Railroad company.
In addition to those claiming damages for
shipments over these roads,. Attorney Gen
eral Wloksrsham of the l'epartment' of
Justice has como forth to defend the con
stitutionality of the law. Briefs have been
filed in the case and the matter set down
for orjil argument today.
From two primary points of view do the
railroads attack the law. They claim the
iFuulrentf.ut that the initial carrier shiMI
issue a receipt, or bill of lading-, for the
property to be transported and be liable
fo ahy loss throughout the transporta
tion, compels one railroad company to be
responsible for another company' errors.
The other point Is that the proviso declar
ing I I'M no Contract shall exempt the init
ial carrier from this liability for loss on
the connecting carrier, destroys, or inter
feres VlK---ii()Hty' of' contract.
The anawsv.tof the .government to this
particular argument is that of 'public,
policy."

1 While the president Is considering both

the latter was to he appointed; but the
fact that he is seeking opinions both as to
Justice White and Senator Root ia taken
to Indicate Mr. Taft has not made up hit

None of the supreme court appointments
will be made until congress meets in De

Senator Root's participation in it and the
question of whether or not a democratic

after the New York couiuy urand Jury had

cused of having attempted to bribe Con
gressman Olto G. l'oelker, then a srata

would have carried the airship about 200
miles eastward of the banks of New Found
land. Tihue is the remotest possibility that the
America, relieved of the weight of the
crew and lifeboat, may in aomo unvarying
westerly blow, be wafted across to Europe,
though this Is regarded i unlikely, as the
dirigible, weakened by ... the pounding
equillbrator, was losing gas. The gas bag
may, find itself caught in aome tropical
gale, and be blow n , over the, Atlantic sea
board. The best belief among aeronauts
today la that It will never be seen again.
W rllman. Talks of the Yoyaare. .
Wellman says that after working well
to sea on Sunday the dirigible was caught
in a thirty-mile northwest blow, which
carried the America clear off her course.
Night came and the equillbrator Jerked
and bumped over the waves, threatening
the America with constant destruction.
The members of the crew were calm, but
greatly exhausted and one after the other
went to sleep, expecting to wake up in
the sea. Every effort was centered on
keeping the America afloat and gasoline
waa tossed overboard. The equillbrator
kopt up Its pounding and threatened to
sweep away the lifeboat.
Wellman told the Trent's passengers that
a course was laid for the Azores, but a
veering wind made It Impossible to reach
the islands with reduced gasoline. Iler
muda was the next hope of the party.
Monday night more gasoline and some
damaged machinery were Jetlsoned to
keep the America afloat.
Early Tuesday morning rescue came.
The Trent was sighted two hours away
and signalled. . The lifeboat was Hay
launched, Captain Vaniman bringing the
America down close to the waves, while
Simon directed the release of the lifeboat.
The lifeboat was struck a glancing blow
by the equillbrator which nearly capsized
It. The weight of the lifeboat and the
party removed from the airship, the
America shot up high in the air and dis
appeared quickly in the distance.
The losa of the dirigible was witnessed
without regret, according to Wellman, as
It could never have been used again, hav
ing been weakened by constant Jerking of
the equillbrator.
Wellman believes that 'he feat of cross
ing the Atlantic In a gas hag may be ac
complished, but that a larger and stronger
air craft will have to be built. He says
the equillbrator was the mistake of the
expedition.

State Election Commission Decides in
Fator of Thii Plan.
ENDORSEMENT BY REPUBLICANS
I
John Morrison,, Postmaster at tled
rlrk. Found Dead lu Hulldlaa.
Where lie llnd Fallen
Down tairs.
(From a Staff Correspondent
DK8 MOINES. Oct 19 (Sp. rial Tele
gram.) The state election commission to
day decided in favor of a bar ticket for
Judges in the Seventh district, which com
prls"s Scott. Muscatine. Jackson and Clin
ton counties, and directed that the bar
ticket should go on the official ballot.
The bar nominees, who are the present
Judges, were also Indorsed by the r?puh
llcans and will be on the republican ticket.
The democrats named a ticket consisting
of two of the bar nominees and two other
democrats and sought to prevent the bar
ticket going on as an independent ticket.
John Morrison Killed.
John Morrison, who represented Keokuk
county In the Iowa legislature for three
terms and widely known over the state
as a republican leader, was Instantly killed
by a fall down a short flight of stairs at
the postofflce In Iledrick, where be has
been postmaster for thirteen years. No one
saw the accident. A number of his friends
missing h!m, began a search through the
building and found him.
Appointee Was Out of t Itj.
Colonel II. B. Hedge, the newly ap
pointed pension agent for Des Moines, was
attending a centennial reunion of the
founding of Washington, Pa., his old home,
when he waa appointed, and he is now
hurrying home to accept the place. It is
probable the change will be made very
soon, as the quarterly payments have been
made and the office will soon be In best
condition for a change. The position of
chief crtrk in the office is vacant.
Snprrme t'oart Opens Sessions.
The supreme court of Iowa opened session
here yesterday for the October period of
the September term, all the members of the
court present. Only a few minor cases
were ready for submission and they were
from eastern Iowa. The court) will render
a good many opinions In the next two
weeks.
o Joint Debates.
The efforts of the democratic state com
mittee to divert the campaign by arranging
a series of Joint debates between the two
candidates for governor has failed. Both
of the men are Wiled for meetings almot-t
every niiiht until election. The Dolllver
funeral cuts out a large number of the
republican meetings for the week and the
democrats will not hold meetings on Thurs
day. Forger Gets Ills Sentence.
W. S. Ramsey of Albla, who was accused
of a Series of forgeries covering several
years, in which he secured about $10,000

a loan agent enjoying a big business when
