‘BIG MALEFACTORS
SHOULD BE JAILED”
New York,' Sept. 2.—In an Interview
by Attorney General Bonaparte,
Lenox, Mass, he made these striking
statements:
Fines may be a deterrent toward
continued lawlessness of great corpor
ations, but the Imprisonment of a prov
en malefactor from the. realms of high
finance would be a beacon light of
warning and do more good than much
litigation, no mailer how successful
against corporoto entitles, I don’t
mean underlings, but their superiors,
under whose orders they act.
"In my next report I shall urge a
drastic readjustment that will place
the department of Justice In a better
tactical position for Its work."

Judge Shelby Refuses
Restraining
Order.
Reduced passenger rate, on the Im
portant lines In Georgia went Into ef
fect Monday under circular No. 334.
Developments In the situation came
rapidly Saturday. Judge Shelby, of
Huntsville, Ala., declined to grant tho
Central rallroajl a temporary restrain
ing order, nnd set the case down for a
hearing In Atlanta before some federal
Judge on September 16.
Indications point to the fact that the
Atlanta nnd West Point, the Nash
ville, Chattanooga and St. Louis and
the Georgia rood were on the spot to
take Advantage of any favorable action
by Judge Shelby.
Another Important development waa
the petition of tho Atlantic Coast Line,
filed here, seeking a mandatory Injunc
tion ngalnst the railroad commission of
Georgia, and asking a review and de
cision on the whole question of re
duced passenger fares In this state.
Judge Shelby’s denial of an Immedi
ate Injunction Is In the nature of a
victory for the state. He held that u
court jihould not enjoin the enforce
ment^! any rate on nn ex-parte af
fidavit of un Interested party, unless
sufficient time Intervenes for passing
upon the merits of the Issue. Judge
Shelby said:
Judge Shelby’s Opinion.
“The maximum rate per mile
passengers charged by the complainant
company Is 3 cents." The Georgia rail
road commission reduced the rate to
21-2 cents as to Intra-state passen
gers. Tills bill Is filed to enjoin va
catee and annul the order of the com
mission on the ground that it violates
the provisions of the fifth and four
teenth amendments of the constitution
relating to due process and the equal
protection of the laws.
“The case Is not now before me
Its merits, nor Is tho motion for an
Injunction pendent llto right now be
fore me for decision. It Is not Intended
to intimate any opinion on questions
not yet reached.
"The bill Is presented to mo to ob
tain an order setting the motion and
and prayer for an Injunction pendent
llto down for hearing nnd directing
notice to be given to the defendants.
An order to that effect will be made.
"1 am nlso- asked to grant .a tem
porary restraining order, enjoining tho
operation or enforcement of the rate
established by tho Georgia railroad
commission till tho hearing of the mo
tlon for the injunction pendent llte.
"The granting of ouch temporary re
straining order like tho granting of an
an Injunction, Is within tho sound Judl-
clal discretion of the court. No uni
versal rule can bo announced to gov
ern court or Judge In all cases, but
ench case must be decided on Its own
facts.
"The constitution and laws of Geor
gia confer on tho railroad commission
authority to reduce Intrastate passen
ger rates. It made the order In ques
tion June 7th, 1907, after notice was
given tho complainant railroad com
pany and after hearing evidence.
"The order provided that It should
not go Into, effect till September 21,
1907. This only gave the complainant
company two months and twenty-six
days In which to apply for nn Injunc
tion beforo the date prescribed became
effective.
"The bill was not presented till yes
terday, August 30, 1907. only two days
ago, one of them Sunday, before the
rate prescribed was to take effect.
"The defendants have hnd no notice
that the application for the temporary
restraining order would be made.
Waited Too Long.
"If resort to the court had been made
within reasonable time after tho fixing
of the date on June 7, 1907. there would
have been no occasion for asking for
an exparto restraining order.
"The motion for an Injunction pen
dent llte. If made within a reasonable
time after tho action of the railroad
commission, could havo been heard con
tradictorily after n timely notice to
the defendants before the commission
ers' order became effective.
"The Georgia railroad commissioners
are officer* charged with the perform
ance of duties.
The order of finding fixing the low
er rate as reasonable recites that It
was made after a careful, tedious and
painstaking consideration of the evi
dence and argument of the complain
ant and respondent and a laborious
Investigation of the subject.
"There Is at least a prlma facie pre
sumption that It acted In good faith
SAYS ROOSEVELT
NOW HAS CONTROL
OF U MINE
President, It Is Asserted,
Can Easily Nominate Own
Choice For President.
New York, Sept. 2.—“Roosevelt
already has got control of the next
Republican national convention,” was
the surprising: statement made by a na
tional committeeman here today, “fie
only needs 497 of the 992 delegates to
name any man he deslrea and adopt
any platform satisfactory to him. "When
you analyze tne make-up of the 992
men who comprise the next conven
tion, you'll see 332 come from the
South, where the Republican organi
zation Is absolutely controlled by Fed
eral ofllce holders; 2G are territorial
delegates and 156 from states west of
$he Mississippi, where Roosevelt Is ab
solute. These will itfve him 514 votes.
Within a week from September JO to
September 6 he will deliver six set
speeches nnd a dozen extemporaneous
talks in tho heart of the real South.”
und fixing the date and that It Is not
confiscatory.
Not Shown Invalid.
'It Is, of course, well settled that the
action of the commission Is subject to
Judicial review, but thcro Is no pre
sumption to begin with that It Is In
valid, on this exparte hearing.
•'Theie Is nothing before me on the
question of fact as to whether the rate
fixed by the commission Is confiscatory
or not, except the action of the commis
sion fixing the lower rate and the
sworn bllMof the complainant which
contains figures and estimates which
sustain the complainants' contentions.
"The bill alone la pitted against tho
commission's decision.
"The case presented in the attitude
on tho eve of tho rates taking effect,
when it could have been presented to
the court at a time when no Injunctlvo
order, without notice and a hearing of
both sides, would have been necessary.
"For the purpose of this motion, con
sidering the time at which It Is made
and the circumstances I have mention
ed, I can not hold that the affidavits
to the bll (outweigh the prlma facie
presumption that the action of the
Georgia railroad commission is valid.
"I am of opinion that the motion for
temporary restraining order should be
overruled, and It Is ordered.”
As stated exclusively In Saturday
afternoon's Georgian, the Atlantic
Coast Line Saturday filed suit In the
United States circuit court here, seek
ing a mandatory Injunction to prevent
the enforcement of the 2 1-4-cent rate
