entire line.
At present we are waiting for the
action OF the transcontnental associa.
ton, which meets at st. Paul, June
fifteenth, at which time the question
OF making freight rates between the
east and the Pacific coast, as well ne
all intermediate points, in conformity
with the long and short haul clause
OF the interstate commerce law, will
be discussed by the traffic managers of
the different lines and definite action
taken. The present indications are
that the interstate commissioners
will require the different rail
way companies to conform strictly
to the provisions OF the interstate
commerce law and under which it is
unlawful to charge IL higher rate for II
short than IA long haul in the same di.
rection. You will remember that the
interstate law went into effect April
9th OF hst year. The roads at once
prepared tariffs in accordance there
with, which were kept in effect until
April 2Ih, at which time the com mis-
soners granted II suspension of the
clause relative to long and short hauls
ot ninety days, and at the expiration
OF that ninety days, advised railroad
managers that they must place and
rely on their own construction of the
law and act accordingly. Since which
time the transcOntinental lines have
made lower rates between the east and
Pacific coast terminals than they have
to intermediate points.
The general feeling Of traffic men
is that it is only short time when
the roads will have to come to the pO-
sition taken by the commissioners in
the Denver case, tO-wit: that no more
shall be charged for short than long
hauls in the same direction. The
effect on Spokane Falls would be that
the city would get the same freight
rates to and from all eastern points |
that Pacific coast towns enjoy. | can
not state definitely what the new rates
will be, but am confident that the |
present rates to SpokaneFul)s from the |
east will not be advanced. The only |
effect, in my opinion, at present, is
that terminal point rates will be rails.
ed. will add, in n general way, thai
the freight shipments to and from the |
east to this territory, are rapidly in |
creasing.
After pleasant word or two on
other matters, the reporter bowed |
gracefully out OF the room ana
left the two gentlemen enjoying d
fragrant Havana.

Booth and ModJeska.

We had u notable exhibition of polite.
ness ir front ofthe curtain on the night of
the great Wallack testimonial when Ed.
win Booth and Helena Modieska were
called out after one OF their dialogues as
Hamlet and Ophelia. Booth lis iamously
stitf and mum when he appears in that
way, and his manner usually suggests that
he has somehow learned that he Is the
greatest American tragedian. Modjeska Is
we'll understood to have formed an equally
high regard of herself as "A tragedienne.
Certainly neither would be justified in any
other opinion.
We'll, when they emerged nom the side
door together, hundreds OF expert observers
IN the audience were ready to watch their
behavior In trying jnncture of stage etl-
quette. Would Booth bring her out"
with the air of Il man Introducing the spe-
ciai object of applause, or would he let her
onlpany' him as n paratively small
sharer in the ovation? They went a little
way across the stage hand in hand, bowling
10 the audience, but rs yet without pay
ing any attention to each other.
Then the orchestra leader held up two
Horal constructions. Modjeska's eyes fell
on them. and Booth, following the direc-
tion of her glance, saw that he would have
to handle the thing Not, for quarter OF
a century ut least had the great Edwin
Booth been called upon to reach for flowers
across the footlights on behalf of stage
companion. But he did it, although |

Laden with huge flower piece in each
hand he turned politely to ward the actress
and slightly extended them with u gesture
meaning that they were for her; but when
she reached to take one he somehow ex-
pressed, by the meercst suggestion of panto-
mine, thai the burden was heavy, and he
insisted on carrying it for her The equal
