TOPEKA, March 20. The migratory bird law was declared unconstitutional by Judge John Pollock In the United "States District Court, today. Judge Pollock held Congress has no- jurisdiction over Same in any of the states, and that -tales only have the right regulation or pro- tection of game.

The decision was in the case of George L. McCullagh, a banker of Galena, and two companions arrested on complaint of the United States District Attorney for shooting ducks out of season. The defendants filed a demurrer to the charge, attacking the law, and Judge Pollock today sustained their contentions. Fred Robertson, United States Dis trict Attorney, announced the case will be appealed to the United States Supreme Court. In his decision Judge Pollock said in part The act challenged Is believed to be the single instance In the entire legislative or judicial history of this nation or the composing states In which a contrary view has been ex pressed.

Men Expected to Be Replaced by Others on Democratic 'Ticket. The moTement for the nomination of independent candidates for the Board of Kducatfon was headed off yesterday by the Hepublican City Committee, -which, by unanimous vote, rejected George Ernst and Dr. M. A. Frankenthal, Democratic convention candidates for the bipartisan School Board ticket, and substituted A.

C. Stewart, former president of the Board of Police Commissioners, and John M. "Wood, former Attorney-General of Missouri, both of whom were recommended to the Democratic convention by the conference of, civic organizations. Ernst and Fraukcnthal wVe nominated Friday by the Democratic convention, which ignored the suggestions of the civic conference. The Nominating Committee of the clvio conference held two meetings at the City Club yesterday to consider plans for nominating independent candidates.

Former Circuit Judge J. Hugo Muench, who was chairman of the conference, and alto chairman of the Kepublican convention Friday, went to the committee with the assurance that the Kepublican City Committee would reject Ernst and Frankenthal and nominate two -Democrats whohad been recommended by the conference. The conference took a recess to await the action of the Republican committee, and when it made good the pledge of Judge Muench, the conference adjourned and announced that no further effort would be made to bring out an independent ticket. Democrats to Meet Mcudaj, It is expected the Democratic City Committee, when it meets at 2 p. m.

Monday, will reject Christopher W. Johnson and Stephen M. Wagner, nominees of the Republican convention, and substitute two Republicans recommended by the civic conference. If that should be done, the object of the Independent movement would be fully accomplished, and the discriminating voter will have an opportunity at the April election to vote for the candidates indorsed by the civic organizations.

I I i RUMSEY IS EXCISE HEAD, ARNOLD AND Three St. Louis Democrats Are Notified of Their Appointment by Gov. Major. Glendy B. Arnold and Excise Commissioner Thomas L.

were notified yesterday afternoon of their appointment, by Gov. Major, as Circuit Judges, under the bill, lately enacted, which increases the membership of the St. Louis Circuit bench from 12 to 14. Horace S. Rumsey, a Colonel on Gov.

Major's staff, was notified of his appointment as Excise Commissioner, to succeed Anderson. Anderson and Arnold are leaders of the younger Democrats. Anderson Is 40 years old, a native of Pike Coun ty', and made a reputation as an ora- tor In his student career in -Central i College at Fayette. He was City At- i torney of St. Louis under the Wells administration.

He married Miss Margaret Gertrude Ballard, and lives at 4219 Westminster place. Arnold is a Kentuckian, 40 years old, and has been practicing law in St. Louis 14 years. He was a candi date for the Democratic congressional nomination in the Twelfth District in 1912, and last year he led the de feated Democratic list of nominees for Circuit Judge. He was married in 1907 to Miss Cora Connett of St.

Joseph, and lives at 4385 Forest Park boulevard. Rumsey, the newly appointed Excise Commissioner, is the first non-lawyer to be chosen for that place in 10 years. His five predecessors Mulvihill, Caul-field, Lee, Homer and Anderson were lawyers, and the last four of them were promoted from the commissionership to judgeships. Rumsey, who Is a business man, will break the line of judges, but judgeships are not the only thing to which the excise commissionership might conceivably There is the job of Mayor, for instance, in which some of Rumsey's friends have previously tried to Interest him. Asked by Governor.

But all that Is some" distance in the future, and Rumsey says he is not figuring on it He said yesterday that had accepted the commissionership because Gov. Major asked him to and asked him not once, but several times. He declared he had no especial desire for the place, which he regards as one In which a man is certain of considerable abuse from somebody or5-other. Rumsey will be 38 years old March 30, which will be two days before he takes his new office. He Is vice-president and general manager of the manufacturing concern founded by his father, the late L.

M. Rumsey. He was 10 years an of fleer in the First Regiment, and served in the Spanish War, but he first became a Colonel when Gov. Major named his staff. The nearest he ever came to holding a political office before was when he was president of the Jefferson Club.

That was quite near, as he was the Immediate successor of Harry B. Hawes. Member of Poor Clnba. He is now a member of four nonpolltl- cal clubs, but he said yesterday that none of the clubs to which he belongs has been in trouble with the Excise Commissioner, to his knowledge. "The clubs which have saloon licenses are under the Excise Commissioner' jurisdiction," he remarked, when the matter of his club membership, and the relations of clubs to the excise office.

were mentioned, "and I suppose they are observing the law, or Tom Ander son would be after them. The Clubs that have the locker system are not under the Excise Commissioner, but uri der the police, and I shall not be concerned with them, except to turn over to the police any complaints that I may receive about them." A guarded inquiry, whether the new commissioner ever takes a social drink. brought an emphatic "I do." He re marked that total abstinence had never been considered a qualification for hold Ing the excise Job, and that in his opln Health cannot expect any ANDERSON UDGES A -r THREATENS SUPPLY State Department Is Told That Trouble There Will Cause Shortage of Sisal. fy Associated Preas. WASHINGTON, March 20.

A com- Imlttee of hemp growers from me State-of Tucatan. Mexico, anu sen'tatives of American hemp importers laid before the State Department today an appeal for some action by Amm ent that would "terminate the religionary roubles between Gen. Alvarado. the Carranza Governor of Yucatan, and an opposing faction. The committee conferred with Major Heinke, chief of the Latin-American division of the department, and probably will discuss the situation with Secretary Bryan next Monday.

The committee was composed of Carlos Urcelay, Ricardo Molina and Julian A iiar from Yucatan, and M. J. Smith of New York, a hemp Importer. They said the revolution which resulted in the recent blockade of the port of Progreso by Carranza threatened the destruction of a large portion of the sisal crop by which most of the harvest binding twine used In the United States is made. Shortage In Predicted.

Smith told officials It would not be more than a few weeks before the farmers of the country would feel the shortage in harvest twine, manufacturers having failed to discover a substitute for sisal. An official message said Gen. Alvarado entered Merida yesterday, the enemy fleeing at his approach. Quiet prevailed at Merida and Progreso. Confirmation of the defeat of the Carranza forces at San Carlos, Mexico, was given In official dispatches which say the Carranza forces were badly defeated, losing many horses and a large part Qftheir equipment.

They are reported to be now in full retreat toward the Burrough mountains. A statement Issued tonight by the Convention Agency here reported the capture of Camargo, a border city between Nuevo Laredo and Matmoras with slight resistance.

Magoon, present member of the board; David Sommers, president D. Sommers Furniture and Percy Werner, lawyer. Chairman Schmoll of the Republican City Committee said yesterday he had notified the Democratic City Committee in advance of the convention that Frankenthal and Ernst were objectionable to the Republicans, and would not be accepted. In the face of this warn ing, the Democratic ward bosses forced their nomination. Frankenthal was strong with the Dem ocratic city committeemen, because, as a member of the present Board of Edu- cation, he has obtained many Jobs as janitors and groundkeepers for Demo cratic political workers.

The one Important object of the Democratic City Committee in mak ing nominations is to get as many Jobs' as possible for Democratic hench men. J. no candidates generally are called before the committee and re quired to pledge themselves to turn over all their appointments to that organisation. The delegates to the Democratic convention who favored the nomination of candidates Indorsed 'by the civic organizations were angry at the action of a combination in the Demo cratic City Committee which forced the nomination of Ernst and Frank enthal. These delegates declared that the ward "bosses" had deliberately thrown away an opportunity to win public sentiment and support by re fusing to nominate the candidates suggested by the civic organizations.

Independent Ticket Was Planned. Flint Garrison, chairman of the Nominating Committee of the civic organizations, said he had received yes terday numerous pledges of support for an Independent ticket. Hundreds of men volunteered their services to circulate petitions at the churches today to obtain the necessary 1000 sig natures to the petitions for the Inde pendent candidates. It would have been necessary to file the nominating'petltions with the Board of Election Commissioners by midnight Monday. Blank petitions had been prepared, and all arrangements made to circulate them.

Garrison said the committee was glad it had been able to one-half the result aimed at, through' the Republican' organizations, without having to bring out the independent ticket The civic organizations and citizens have shown a greater interest In the school board nominations this year than ever before. Garrison said that Charles ReUly Contributed to the Democratic City Committee, and the peculiar circumstances In connection with the recent purchase of the King's highway school site had aroused the people to the necessity of nominating only high-class, candidates for the Board of Edu cation. As the two political'" conventions failed to. meet the requirements of the civic organizations In the standard of men nominated, the civic organizations had. determined to launch the Independent movement.

Stewart la aa The Republican City Committee foresaw what was coming and met the demands of the civic organizations by the nomination of Stewart and Wood. Stewart is an attorney with offices in the New" Bank of Commerce Building. He la 68 years old and resides at 6727 Cab-anne avenue. He was appointed Police Commissioner by Gov. Folk.

As president of the Police Board he conducted the Investigation which led to the wholesale discharge of and detectives. Including the heads of departments, and a complete reorganization of the force. Judge Wood la 60 years old and resides at 5S3S Clemens avenue. He served as Attorney-General of Missouri for four years and an appointive term as Circuit Judge in St. Louis.

It has been the custom of the Republicans to accept the two School Board candidates nominated by the Democrats before each biennial election, and of, the Democrats to accept the two Republican candidates nominated by the Republican convention. This resulted in but a single School oBard ticket, the names of the four candidates being printed on the ballots of the two parties, thus assuring beyond any. doubt the election of the bi-partisan candidates.

If the Democratic City Committee rejects the candidates nominated by the Republican convention, the School Board tickets will be entirely different. There will be candidates on the two tickets and the, four receiving the highest number of votes" In the April election will be elected. Here is the Republican ticket, as It will appear on the official ballot, with out. the political faith of the candidates being designated: Christopher W. Johnson, Republican.
