BEMAD LA KNAPP 15 FOUND GUILTY EY JURY TRAIN GREW CASE Want Commission to Strike Out Portfon of Order in Harry Ford Complainl. Don't Like Idea of Giving Legislature Chance to Correct Defect. That Nebraska railroads would rather bey orders of the state railway commission than take Ahelr chances with acta passed by the leg-lulature is indicated by the action of the (even steams carriers operating in the state, which have- joined In asking the commission to grant a partial rehearing In the case recently dncided In their favop, wherein the commission dismissed a complaint by Marry Ford of the railmay traln-men'a brotherhood demanding that three men crews be used on light engines running between divisions.

The transportation companies want the main order to stand, but they ask the commission to reeonslder and atrlke out that part its decision which declared that "the legislature) has spoken on this subject and the commission Is excluded from taking Jurisdiction." No such contention as this was advanced In the proceeding, say the railroads, and they specifically con-cede that the commission has Jurisdiction. They apparently do not desire further action, by the legislature to corect a defect in the law which th commission pointed out. If the commission gigs back th case may then be reopened and heard on its merits. TELLS OF SHOTipTH Soldier on Way to Front Says He Saw AnotherFace Firing Squad.
