State rights clash as judge voids Missouri transit statute
Judge Smith McPherson in Kansas City voids Missouri's 187 statute restricting foreign corporations from removing suits to federal courts. He grants Rock Island, Santa Fe, and other railroads an injunction to block enforcement, ruling federal constitutional supremacy over state law and that the law seeks to deprive complainants of federal-rights.

Provident Savings Life Assurance Society Defends Officers
The society issued an official statement denying Colorado Insurance Commissioner E. E. Rittenhouse’s criticisms as false. It cites securities sales totaling 15.4 percent in railroad bonds, $6,000 in government bonds, and $9,400 in bank stocks instead of higher figures, and rejects any claim of illegal loans or misapplied cash. It defends cash contributions by the Thomases and clarifies the examiner’s error regarding Mr. Woodruff’s role.
