It sought to dominate and control "unreason ably" the dispensation of pic. Sena tor Crane, acting as court of last re sort, passed down the opinion. The steward of the Senate restaurant framed up and directed the monopoly. The New England Plo club was the complainant. The New England Tie club com prises ns honorary members Senator Crane and all the leading lights of the Northeastern states. The active members are the secretaries of Sena tors and Representatives. Its pro gram was to segregate a fund, pur chase food In large quantities and have it served in the room of Representa tive Gardner. This was done because of the high prices prevailing In the senate and house restaurants. An emissary of the New England Pie club fent to the senate restaur ant for supplies. He sought to buy pie and bread at wholesale figures. He was informed by the steward that the goods would be sold only at retail prices. Thus the monopoly of the senate restaurant in pie, bread and other edibles discriminating against the New England Plo club, was op pressive and unreasonable. An appeal was taken to Senator Crane, who, as chairman of the com mittee on rules has Jurisdiction over the restaurant. Ho gave a hearing to the plo club, the steward and all interested parties. In handing down his opinion Sena tor Crane held that the managers of the restaurant sought to monopolize the business of providing food to all persons In the senate wing of the cap Itol. It was also held that a con spiracy had been formed In unreason able restraint of trade to crush the New England pie club. In addition, "unjustifiable" discrimination had been practiced, and this restraint of trade could not be tolerated. Senator Crant took advantage of the recent supreme court decision lit the Standard Oil case and applied "the rule of reason" to tho New Eng land Pie club. He held thnt its mem bers mut have pie. It was reason able they should indulge in this deli cacy. It was also right that It should be purchased at the senate restaurant at wholesale prices. No appeal can be taken from the decision of Senator Crane. , Get There Quick Phono Red 3961 for the I AUTO CAB I Twenty-five cent fares to any part of the city. Special rates for .out of town trips.

Court Is (ho fMt Restore, Tlie residents of West Webb street will have to Institute an action In the circuit court if they Insist on fight ing the construction of a livery barn In their section, for the council last night decided It had no Jurisdiction In the matter. City Attorney Raley reported that the right was Inherent In the city to prohibit such buildings In the entire city or In any section which might be designated ns a par ticular residence district, but to do this latter a special ordinance declar ing a certain section of West Webb street a district wherein livery stables are particularly offensive would have to be adopted. The council decided that such an action would be a bad precedent to establish. The residents however, have the right to go into the circuit court for redress and it may be that such action will be taken. New York. The next time Antorwo Skala leaves his sunny Italian home to visit his sister in Keokuk, Iowa, the betting is 8 to 5 that he will not choose a vessel the principal cargo of which is Gorgonzola cheeso. He wiil make a careful Inspection before he goes abroad and will be sure that his surroundings for the voyage will be of a subtance less cloying to the appetite and Infinitely less heavy In the nostrils. For Antonio Is a persistent stowa way. This was his second effort to come to the land of the free and the home of the brave and his sister, without paying passage, and the lost attempt was more disastrous to his constitution than the first. He stole aboard tho Saxonla of tho Cunard line at Naples and made a boo line for the hold. Ho was in such a hurry that he did not read the mark ings on the cases In the hold, but found n cozy nest and fell asleep ns the Sriy -iiia steamed Into the Medit erranean. When ho awoke ho was hungry, and being a Nepolltan, the odor put an edge on his appetite. At first he was pleased with the diet that ho found stored around him and ato liberally. Thnt was on tho first day. Toward the shank of tho second day out the conviction began to steal on him that not only was Gorgonzola likely to grow monotonous but that the sur charged atmosphere was a trifle heavy for breathing purposes.
