BIGGEST LEGAL BATTLE OF AGE j OPENS OCT. 5 JThroe-Judge Federal Court Will Decide Railroad Valuation Basis. Bv United Press WASHINGTON, Oct. I.—Two former members of President Taft’s cabinet will oppose each other, and ex-President Taft himself will preside in handing down the final decision in what is described here as the mots important legal battle, in terms of money, in the history of the world. The legal controversy is that of railroad valuation which is scheduled to be brought to trial at Kansas City Oct. 5 with a sum estimated at approximately $30,000,0000,000 in increased public utility values in the balance. Only 2 Represent the People The Interstate Commerce Commission has engaged ex-interior Secretary Walter L- Fisher of Chicago, who served in Taft’s cabinet from 1911 to 1913, to present the commission’s argument against the increased valuations sought by the railroads. Donald Richberg of Chicago will represent shippers as well as several States and cities. Among the wide array of lawyers who will oppose Fisher in his efforts to prevent court approval of the valuation increases, is ex-Com-merce Charles Nagel of St. Louis, a member of President Taft’s cabinet throughout his term. And presiding over the U. S. Supreme Cour;, where the case is certain to go for final settlement, is ex-President Taft, thus making the $30,000,000,000 valuation case the occasion for something of a Taft cabinet reunion. Decide Fate of Commission At the Intertsate Commerce Commission the case Oct. 5 is held to have a major bearing on the future activities of the commission, and possibly on its very existence. Although the immediate controversy is between the Government and a small St. Louis terminal railroad, the principles which must be established in deciding the case are held to be of decisive importance in determining the course of railroad rates and public utility rates henceforth.

COP ‘WILLIAM TELL’ SHOOTS FRIEND IN HEAD Victim Also Injured When Thrown From Car Speeding to Hospital. Bu United Press CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 1.—“I bet you a dollar I can shoot your hat off,” Patrolman Henry Frischkorn, 26, said to George Reynard, 56. Reynard, willing to be a member in the William Tell stunt, stood motionless and told jpe policeman to “go ahead.” The bullet, instead of passing through Reynard’s hat, crashed into his skull at the base of his brain. Frischkom, seeing he had wounded Reynard, an old friend, carried him to a car and started to a hospital. While traveling along at a high rate of speed the automobile struck an obstruction on the track and turned over. The impact of the accident threw the already injured man to the pavement, severing one of his toes and cutting him in several places. Frischkom was only slightly bruised. The patrolman today was held on a shooting-to-kill charge. FATHER, SON ON TRIAL Terre Haute Men Accused in Slay- • ing of Relative. By Times Special TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Oct. I.

SYNOPSIS Nancy was pretty, a GAGE, and a blue-blood even though she did live on the other side of the railroad tracks. But Nancy lust couldn't help falling in love and becoming engaged to handsome Eric Nelson, whom she had met at Edith Harcourt’s. a rich school chum. Nancy's pride causes her to break the engagement when she finds that Eric’s mother is a laundress at the Harcourt’s. Nancy is extremely jealous when Eric starts going with Clarice Jones, her next door neighbor. Unable to stand the tension of her enforced separation from the man she loves. Nancy goes to live in San Francisco. CHAPTER XX Nancy was lonely that first month in San Francisco. Yet even her loneliness was a relief. Her overstrung nerves were grateful for the changed environment and constant occupation. And after the first few weeks she found a number of things to do. Her restless, active mind seized upon this unlimited opportunity for acquiring knowledge. She haunted art galleries and museums, pored over exhibits in the library, walked for hours in Golden Gate Park. She was suddenly being presented with the things she had longed to see ever since she was a little girl. The beauty of the city lured and excited her. Much to her own surprise, she found that she was never bored. The

world had opened before her like a magic ball. And she was thrilled at its delicious possibilities. Sometimes she wondered if the freedom of her surroundings had gone to her head. It was so delightful to be oneself! Not to have to worry over what Edith or the rest of the "crowd” were thinking. More and mefre her cramped individuality asserted itself. She found herself thinking, “I can do this if I want to. No one here will care.”

After years of repression and catering to small town ideals her soul dared to flutter its own wings —feebly at first, but with a gradually mounting courage. As, for example, the day orx the beach. . . . It was; on Sunday towards the end of May—a warm, sweet day. Nancy had taken a bus to the ocean, walking away from the crowds far down the sand until she found herself entirely alone. The water was blue and inviting. Seized by a sudden impulse, she decided to go wading. No one was in sight, so she concealed her shoes and stockings behind some bushes and walked toward the water, gaily, her spirits mounting as she lifted her skirts and danced down to meet the waves. The sun and air gave her a glorious sense of irresponsibility. She laughed and shouted and ran. Her hat came off and she flung it behind her, running farther and farther away. . . . For the first time since she had quarreled with Eric, she was really light-hearted. It was as if she had flung her troubles, too, an d on the wet sand. . . ~ She had no idea she had covered so much territory until she retraced her steps. The she was surprised to find her hat so far behind. As she rescued it a man sauntered up, staring amusedly. She had pinned her skirt high above her knees, but it was drenched from the waves. *‘‘l must be a sight,” thought Nancy. But the spark of interest in the stranger’s eyes made her smile in spite of herself. “Is it as much fun as all that?” he inquired, pleasantly. “It’s lots of fun.” He smiled and sat down upon the sand. “I can’t imagine getting a kick out of anything so primitive,” he said, quite as if they had been introduced. “But I suppose it’s a matter of comparison, like everything else.” Nancy wondered what he meant by that. His air of boredom was rather intriguing. But, conscious of her unconventional appearance, she smiled again and passed on. When she glanced back over one shoulder he was looking in the other direction, apparently uninterested! “I’ll bet he’s a devil,” she thought, searching for her shoes. His face was gloomy to the point of melancholy, but lightened by black eyes as dangerous as they were beautiful. He was a man to be avoided, that was clear. But how could she leave until she had found her shoes? She had marked the place wjth a stick, but she could not find them, although she poked around the little bushes franctically. She was really uneasy when the good-looking stranger approached again. “Have you lost something?” Nancy blushed. “I can’t seem to find my shoes and stockings. I’m sure I left them here, because I marked it with a little stick.”

“You’re sure it is the same little stick?” he inquired, anxiously. Nancy laughed. “Yes. I don’t suppose you saw them anywhere?” “What kind of shoes were they?” he asked, innocently, “one sees so many.” Nancy suspected him, but his face was so serene she didn’t quite dare accuse him. “Brown pumps,” she explained, smartly,' “with little brown leather bows; and brown silk stockings.” “Silk all the way?” he continued, encouragingly. “There’s nothing funny about it,” Nancy said, severely. “If you have taken them for a, joke”— "My dear young lady, how can you accuse me of anything so crude?” His voice was pained, but Nancy’s eyes were blazing. “It’ evident,” she cried angrily "that you know something about them.” “Your suspicion wounds me deeply. I should walk off and leave you but it is against my principles to desert a lady in distress. Perhaps if you look behind that other little stick over there.” Nancy, staring, was mortified to perceive the missing articles at some distance. “I’m sorry!” sne cried, impulsively. “I really did suspect you.” “That was obvious,” he retorted, smiling. He was walking beside her now, but Nancy felt more confidence. He was a gentleman. Voice and manner were irreproachable. He pretended not to see when she unpinned her skirt. But he hesitated as she sat down in the sand to ,put' on her stockings. “I suppose T " ay go on home, now that I’ve pr. ,'d myself not guilty?” “I’m going myself in a minute,” she admitted. He stared out across the water as if considering the matter before he asked, carefully. “Will you suspect me of further dark designs if I ask you to ride home with me?” “I came in a bus,” Nancy informed him, gravely. ivsei “I inferred as much; but since I came in my car . . .” “All right,” he said, seeing her frown. “I know it isn’t a safe thing for any girl to do. Asa matter of fact, I’d advise you against it myself.” She had finished putting on her shoes, and as she rose she said, “It’s nice of you. And I’d love to—honestly”—

He added, “But you’re a nice girl, and you don’t go riding with men you don’t know, do you?” “No, I don’t,” she repeated, gaily. “I’m going to tell you something,” he said, impulsively. “If it makes you angry, I’m sorry. But you see, I’ve nothing to lose, because we’ll never see each other again, anyway. There is something about you which interests me. I know it sounds like a ‘line,’ but I don’t mean it that way. May I give you my card, and if . . .” Nancy looked shocked. “Wait until I’ve finished, won’t you, please?” he begged. "I’m not going to force myself upon you. But if you happen to be lonely or in need of diversion some time, you can easily call me. Perhaps I can find someone to introduce us if you’ll give me an opportunity.” She took the card he extended with secret reservations. Curious to see who he was, but . . .

PARTY UNITY IS ROBINSON AND JACKSON PLEA Personalities Are Avoided in Addresses Before G. 0. P. Woman’s Club. Republican unity as a patriotic duty was the keynote of addresses by Governor Ed Jackson and United States Senator Arthur R. Robinson before the Indiana Republican Woman’s Club political institute at the Columbia Club, Friday afternoon. Principles were expounded, but personalities tactfully avoided in the two addresses, as they were in all utterances on the floor of the institute. For the first time since his indictment for conspiracy to commit a felony, in the alleged offer of a bribe to former Governor Warren T. McCray, Governor Jacksor; faced, from the speakers’ platform, a group of Republican workers who helped place him in office. Only a Word of Greeting It was a situation fraught with expectancy, but if the women thought Jackson would take the opportunity to make denial they were disappointed. “Just a word of greeting,” said the Governor. “I want to compliment you on the success of your meeting; but I must leave early as I have other engagements. After commending the National Administration, Jackson launched | into a brief defense of his own administration in the State. “We have paid off the State debt,” he said, “and reduced the tax rate j from 30 to 23 cents, notwithstanding. We are confident this is a record that will win approval of the voters. This administration has more than fulfilled its platform promises of 1924, and we' look for the public’s approval of the party’s record and its program for the future.” Senator Robinson traced the history of the Republican party and made a plea for party unity. Pleads for Unity “We have done what we’ve done because we were united all these years,” he said. “Today's problems best can be solved by the party that always has solved them. It would be folly to intrust our national problems to the Democratic party. There were only two Democratic Presidents in sixty-five years, and I am inclined to believe that was two too many.” He pleaded for unity in the party as a patriotic duty. Main problems, he said, included farm relief, tax reduction, collection and payment of war debts, national defense and “preparedness for peace.” Evils of the primary system were expounded by Mrs. Grace Banta Urbahns, State treasurer. One hundred women attended the banquet and closing session of the institute.
