Violating the Eight-

of
Action Against Santa Fe and Cotton
Belt to Wait on Katy
Decision.
tli' I'£|i: wt ausIIu Bureau.
AUSTIN, Tex., April II.-An agreement
practically reached here today
♦v hereby tha Attorney General consents
h't to file suits against the Hanta Fe
and Cotton Belt Railroads to enjoin the
recently enacted merger hills for those
companies from becoming effective. The
idea Is to await the final action in the
Katy injunction merger suit, and use it
as a sort of test case.
Attorney General Looltey said tonight
In would make sdeh a covenant if It had
stipulations protecting the rights of tha
State on all sides, ami that the railroads
had Indicated their willingness to make
su.'h an agreement. These stipulations
will be to the effect that the State may
Xtle suit at any time In the tuture to dis-
solve such merger and that the delay
•han s=* he t»k»n Into account tn any
particular, but that the suits may tie
prosecuted a» though they were filed to-
day. Since this appears satisfactory to
all sides the agreement will probably he
entered in writing and the outcome of the
Katy suit awaited. If the Statu wins in
that proceeding, then suits will be filed
against the Santa Fe and Cotton Belt
to render null and void the provisions of
the merger laws given those two lines at
#ic recent session If the Slate loses, It
Is probable no suits will be filed against
the other lines.
This tentative agreement was made to-
day between Air. Looney and General At-
torneys i£. B. Perkins of the Cotton Belt
and J. W. Terry of the Santa Fe.
Guiieral Attorney-- 11. M. Garwood of
the Southern Pacific and Alex Coke of
the Katy also were visitors here today.
They said their business was to study the
opinion Of the Third Court of Civil Ap-
peals In the Katy case, decided last
Wednesday, knocking out the rule of the
Railroad Commission requiring passenger
trains to be operated within thirty min-
utes of their schedule. They are elated
over the victory thus obtained and will
make a strong otfort to have It sus-
tained in the Supreme Court, the tribu-
nal of last resort In this State. However,
if the roads should lose there, they will
appeal to the Supreme Court of the
United States as a Federal Question Is
Involved.
The plea is that tin trains are through
trains lo points outside of Texas, and
therefore are interstate carriers not sub-
ject to Stale regulations.
The thlrty-mlnuto rule has long been a
sharp thorn In the side of the railroads
and all of them have been litigating it
with the commission. Wednesday's deci-
sion gave them much comfort and they
are following up their victory.
KA11JROADS WANT PURE ICE
Certificates From Health Authorities
Demanded of Manufacturers.
The Kiprtt* Austin Bureau.
AI HTIN, Tex., April 12.—It appears that
Boine of the railroads of the State are
going the State Board of Health one bet-
ter in s.'inltary requirements. A letter
was received at the State Board of Health
today stating that certain railroads en*
terlng Hounton hare demanded that the
supply houses serure certificates from
the State health authorities to the effect
that th<« lee furnished the roads Is pure
and wholesome.
The lee company, advising of the rail-
roads' action, stated that it did not know
exactly how the lee eould be sent to the
laboratories liere for analysis, but it for-
um (led a gallon of water out of which
the ico It produces is manufactured. It
d»vlared that the water was "distilled, re-
boilsd and filtered." If so, the ice is
"fori ;• n• i wholaaomt." nr. Henry Hart-
man, State Bacteriologist, will make the
pnalysis.
When the samples came today in the
hex of the ice and brewing company ask
ing for the analysis I)r. Hartman thought
It was the "finished orticlo" instead of
the "raw material." He might have pre
fcrred to analyze the product instead of
the material.
lane Would Know How Much Alcohol
the Beverage Con-
tains.
The EiprttM* Aunt in Unrein.
AUSTIN, Tot., April 12.- Comptroller
Lane carried six samples of cider and
kindred beverages to the laboratory of
the State Fure Food and Drug Commih-
aloner today to have tUem analyzed with
u view of ascertaining how strong they
are with alcohol. Mr. Lane went in per-
son with the samples, which were sealed
by the County Attorney of Gregg County.
If it is held they are capable of pro*
riuclug intoxication prosecutions will fol-
low. Some of them were manufactured
In Dallas, Shreveport and elsewhere.
Under the present law the emotions are
heavy for selling tbe tutoxlcatiug bever-
ages in prohibition territory or even so-
liciting orders. l*'or selling them the
State imposes a tax of $4,00U per annum
aud to solicit orders a fine of |'4»000 and
confinement in the penitentiary.
Beer is recoguized as Intoxicating. It
contains something like 3 or 4 per c«nt
alcohol. Home of the aamylot of eider
analyzed In tue pure food laboratory a
few weeks ago showed alcohol of be-
tween 9 and 12 per cent That It was
rated as being far stronger than beer.
If the present samples show tbe same
rstlo of alcohol Mr. Lane will Inaugurate
prosecutions.
As yet Comptroller Lane lias not been
furnished with a copy of the 9:110 o'clock
closing law nor of the Attorney Gen-
eral's opinion to the Governor construing
that law. The Governor asked Mr. Lane
what his attitude would be under that
law and the Comptroller decliued to ex-
press himself officially until he could
have a copy of the law and the opinion.
His answer reached the Governor's office
after tbe latter had departed for Marlin.
Unofficially Sir. Lane has stated em-
phatically that If the law plainly says
the applicant for renewal of saloon license
shall aver under oath that he has kept
bis business closed from midnight to 6
a m., even though the present law per-
mits him to open at 5 a. m., such affi
davit must be forthcoming before any
license will issue. The Attorney General
said the conflict of an hour's difference
did not destroy the origlual intent. Mr.
Lane says plain language indicates in-
tention. In the meantime the 0:30 closing
bill is in doubt. If Mr. Lane persists in
his position tbe bill will most probably
be vetoed.
Late this afternoon announcement was
made at the Pure Food and Drug Depart-
ment that the aamplea of cider submitted
for analysis were found to contain al-
cohol in varying percentages. The high-
est amounut was slightly over 9 per cent,
and one sample was as low as 2 per cent

AUSTIN, Tei., April 12.—'The Attorney
General's Department today aeut an opin-
ion to .1. A. Starllug. Commissioner of
Labor Statistics, in which it is held that
the cases inatltuted against persous for
violations of I he provisions of the eight-
hour law passed by the Thirty-second
Legislature should be recalled, owing tu
tbe fact that this law was repealed by tin
act of the Thirty-third Legislature, tlm
Attorney General gives tbe following
opinion: "Those who may have offended
against the provisions of the old law age
henceforth exempt from punishment
therefor.
Under the old law it was unlawful for
any contractor, whether a firm, corpora-
tion, individual or employe of contractor
having charge of men. to cause or permit
men to work more than eight houra on
any sort of public work, or any fore-
man, in the service of the State having
charge of men to cause or permit them
to work louger than eight hours a day.
The penalty was $500 per day, each day
constituting a separate offense
Tbe new law enlarges upon the old one
by writing into any contract for the em-
ployment of labor by any contractor
withlu the Htate, the lerui of the con-
tract shall be made on au eight-hour
basis and any violation of it subjects tho
contractor to prosecution. Tbe law also
specifies tbe kinds of work. The penalty
under the new law is from $60 to $1,000
or a term in the county jail not to ex-
ceed six months, or both, and each day
to constitute a separate offeree.
Commissioner of Labor Statistics Star-
ling said today: "The provisions of the
new law are quite plain, and apply to all
contracts for public work entered into on
and after April 1. 11)13, nnd I wish to
state that it will lr>e the policy of this de-
partment to demand rigid enforcement of
tho same."

AUSTIN, Tex., April 12.-J. P. Buch-
anan of Washington County, who was
• lected on April 6 to Congress from the
Tenth District to fill the seat of Albert
S. Burleson, now Postmaster General,
will leave tomorrow for Washington and
expects to take the oath of office within
the next few days
In order that the Tenth District may
have representation In Congress as sooii
as possible and not wait until forty days
have elapsed for canvassing the vote of
the recent election, Judge George Cal
houn of Travis County, who was de-
feated by Mr. Buchanan, today gave
Mr Buchanan, who called on Judge Cal-
houn for that purpose, a certificate con-
ceding his defeat. The document Is ad-
dressed to the Mouse of Representatives
of the United States Congress and Is as
follows:
"This Is to certify that Hon J. P.
Buchanan of llrenham. Tex., and 1 were
the onlr candidates for Congress In the
Tenth Congnnslonal District of Texas at
a special election ordered by the Gov-
ernor and held on April 5, 19U. to fill out
the unexpired term of Hon. A. S Bur-
leson. resigned, and that at such election
Hon. J. P. Buchanan received a majority
of all votei cast In said district, and that
he was duly elected Congressman of ssld
district to fill out said unexpired term.
Realising tha Importance to this Con-
eresalcnal district that it should be repre-
sented In Congress at once, and Its Inter-
ests taken care of, It Is my wish and de-
sire that Hon. J. P. Buchanan be per-
mitted to Immediately qualify aud take
his seat In the House of Representatives
of the United States Congress without the
necessity of his waiting for the official
canvass of the returns and report there-
on."
