"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."

MAY SEND CRUISER TO PROTECT SEALS San Francisco, Sept. 2.—Although Special Commissioner Lembkey, of the department of commerce and labor, denies that recent troubles with Jap anese seal poacher* In the Far North will lead to International complicB' tlons, It has been Intimated by one of his' assistants that startling revels- tlons of Illegal killing of seals will be embraced In the repun which he will file at Washington In a few days.

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 on that road. - Coast Line's Action.
