McPherson Gives

KANSAS CITY, Feb. C.-Judgo Smith
McPherson of the federal court has no
power to retain jurisdiction I ft' suits .of,

Beyond the statement that the court
"has no discretionary powers In the mat
ter," and is merely carrying out tho
higher court mandate, the decree Is vir
tually the same as that entered by Judge
McPherson last Friday and later held up,
so that an amendment could be mado
touching the court's powers In entering
the mandate.
The amended decree dissolves injunc
tions against the state attorney general
that prevented htm from prooeodlng with
suits to recover ! 1,000,000 excess freight
nnd passenger charges mado white tho
rate cases were tn litigation. It likewise
dismisses the original Injunction brought
by the railroads to prevent the enforce
ment of the rate laws and statos that
the original 110,000 bond put up by each
railroad does not limit any shipper or
passenger as to his claim for recovery
of overcharges.
JEFFERSON CITT, Mo., Feb. 6.
Judge MoPherson'a amended decree In
the Mlsbourl rate cases doesn't changs
their status In the slightest degree," said
John T. Darker, state attorney general.
when told of tho filing ot the order at
Kansas City.
The casei are now out of the Judge's
court. lie had dismissed them as the
United States supreme court ordered him
to do. The cases for recoverey ot over
charges now are In the state courts,
where they belong and all litigation con
cerning them In the federal court Is
ended. I shall go ahead with my suits to
recover overcharges from the railroads."
