General SummaryThis case is from a collection containing the full text of over 16,000 Supreme Court cases from 1793 to the present. The body of Supreme Court decisions are, effectively, the final interpretation of the Constitution. Only an amendment to the Constitution can permanently overturn an interpretation and this has happened only four times in American history.

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF ARKANSAS
Syllabus
1. Where a case in the district court arising under the Constitution has been reviewed by this Court under Jud.Code, § 238, this Court retains jurisdiction to review a supplementary decree of the district court not directly involving any constitutional question. P. 254. Arkadelphia Co. v. St. Louis Southwestern Ry. Co., 249 U.S. 134.

A tariff giving special rates on rough wood material on shipment to mill on condition that certain percentages of it by weight should be shipped over the same line after manufacture, and which specified as rough materials "Rough Lumber, Staves, Flitches, Bolts, and Logs," and among finished materials "Staves and Heading," held applicable to "bolts" out of which barrel headings were made, the term "bolts" in this connection having a loose generic meaning. Id.
3. Where the meaning of such a tariff was plain, held that an application for a construction by the state commission by which it was promulgated was not necessary for enforcement of a shipper’s rights under it. P. 256.
