They came down tho mountain side from their prison on Paot zuku mountain in the clouds in sedan chair, on donkey and some walking, with an escort ot outlaws. At the mine compound they saw the last of their brigand hosts and were joyfully greeted by - crowd of relatives and friends who had gathered there to welcome them in expectation of their release. Baths, clothing and food were awaiting them' and on a railroad siding stood a special train, steam up ready to take tiiem to Tsaoeh wang. ' . It Is expected that all or the majority ot the eight, will proceed to Shanghai tomorrow.

PAUL, Minn., June 12.' Argument will be heard In the United States court or appeals here next Monday In the form the court's decree - shall take in ap- Droving the acaulition of control of the Central Pacific railroad by the Southern Pacific road, under louso and stock-ownership. The court' action, which held the Interstate commerce commis sion' has authority to "authorize and approve" this control arrange ment, is declared in effect to hold constitutional the transportation act of 1920, under which extensive consolidation of the United State railroad Is planned. Notification was sent yesterday to counsel for the hearing on June 18, simultaneously with the an nouncement that the- court had reached Its decision. No opinion will be filed, it. is said, but It i understood the court reached these general conclusions: . . That the United States supreme court which ordered separations of the railroads, holding them in restraint of competition in viola tion of the Sherman anti-trust act, did not consider the transportation act. I. C. C. Vested With Authority That the Interstate Commerce commission is specifically vested witn authority to approve tnis ac quisition of control by the South ern Pucific-under the transporta tion act whose provisions relieve the act from operation ot the Sherman anti-trust law. That there was no disrespect for the commission s act as the su preme court's decision was based on prior legislation and action ini tiated before the passage of the transportation act; and as the commission's action was based on this latter legislation, it was un related to the supreme court's ac tion. ' The decree of the circuit court of appeal will be under the man date of the supreme court in the separation cose, which directs the circuit court of appeals to enter the final decree in accordance with the supreme court's finding and "the laws of the united States." Federal Circuit " Judges Walter H. Sanborn. St. Paul; William S. Konyon. Fort Dodge, Iowa, and Robert S. Lewis. Denver, heard the case sitting as the circuit court of appeals for the eighth judicial district. . - - - ALL HOT SEREIJE IE1 GAMEHimi Call Made For Sportsmen to Mfifitanri Prrihfl Trouh eis Brewing In This Body : POLITICS BEING PUTED Davis Accuses Burghduff of A--I.
