Chairman Finley's Decision
in the Mileage Case Is
Sustained.
Arbitrators Report That He
Had a Right to Ferret
Out Facts.
Chairman Walker ReaffirmS q
Ruling on Emigrant Com
missions.
California Business Will Pay
So and So Just as at
Present.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-The arbitrator
in the appeal of the Chicago, st. Paul &
Kansas City road from the decision of
Chairman Finley, finding it guilty of
the misuse of mileage tickets, have sub
mitted their decision. 1t is against the
railroad company. The arbitrator say:
at is our belief that Article IL in
vests in the chairman the right, on re-
ceipt of complaint of a member of an
alleged violation of the agreement with
respect to the misuse of any class of
tickets, to employ such means as he
may elect to determine the facts, pro-
vided the original presentation raises
fair presumption that the complaint is
well founded, and the desire is ex-
pressed by the member making the COM
plant that the chairman shall himself
conduct the investigation.
sin the opinion of the arbitratOrs,
therefore, the chairman, in investigat-
ing the complaint of misuse of mileage
tickets by the Chicago, st. Paul & Kan
sas City railway, clearly had the right
conferred in section II to adopt such
measures as he might elect to determine
if this particular class of tickets was be-
ing accepted for passage Oh the trains of
the company complained of in accord
snce with the restrictions of General
Rule No. ~
The arbitrator in the case were
George DeFaven, of the Chicago u
West Michigan road; James V. Ma
honey, Of the Sioux City & Northern,
and Charles S. Fee, of the Northern Pa
cific.

TRAVELLERS ALLIANCE.
A Great Organization Planned by
Drummers.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-Robert B. Ford,
the national organizer of the CONNER
cial Travellers alliance, is in the city.
He says the alliance proposes to build a
club house In Chicago, just as has al
ready been done in Cleveland, Detroit
and Toledo, only it will be one Of the
largest and coStliest in the city, and
will be intended for the entertainment
of the visiting members of the fraternity
during the worlds fair.
Mr.. Ford says a strong organization Of
commercial travellers of the world is in
process OF formation, which promises to
cut tremendous figure in commercial
history. He says: We have organized
the Commercial Travellers alliance, form
Ing an international association of allied
travellers. This action will include all
OF the organized bodies of travelling men
throughout the world. The various or
CARNATIONS begun with beneficiary OBJ
Jects, and were largely social in their
nature. Now we propose to band our
selves together in radical organiza-
ton. Our preamble reads as follows:
For the purpose of eQualiZing COM
merclal advantages, preventing arbi-
trary discrimination. stopping unneces-
sary competition, limiting advance of
living price in all lines of trade, we
bind ourselves in universal brotherhood
for mutual protection, to aid and assist
the widow and care for and educate the
orphan, under the title of The Com
mercial Travellers Alliance an inter-
national association of allied travellers"
This organization. he says, can dictate
the terms on which goods are to be
handled and prevent the handling of
any goods produced under an oppres-
sw~sn
unfair competition. In this way, he
thinks, the body cannot only ameliorate
the condition of its own members but
of every class of workers.

MADE LOTS OF RUNS.
Company e Defeats Company c at
Indoor Ball.

Indoor Ball.
Companies and E gave an exhibit
ton of how runs may be made in the
National Guard Indoor Base Ball league
at the armOry last evening. 1t was a
contest of tallies from the moment the
umpire cried "Play bali'' until E had
retired G in the ninth inning. Mean
while E showed q score card with Sc
marked up on it in luminous characters,
while G had q runs to its credit.
Play should have begun at o'clock,
but the accident at the gas works left
the armory in gloom until after 8, and
the janitor apparently tried to econO-
miZe his coal bill. The hall WAS cold,
dark and dreary, and the audience
thinned out before the game began.
1t was game of featureS-all indoor
contests are, for that matter. Emmer-
son, Company Els doughty catcher,
pounded out home run in the fifth,
and later he made tour of the bases in
grOtesque fashion. His third strike was
at wild ball. He got his first, but the
catcher made a wild attempt to shut
him off, and threw the ball into the
neld. On EmmerSon scooted to the sec
ond bag, and the bali again went wide
of the mark, and the journey was con-
tinued to the third and then home, and
all on the widest sort of ball throwing.
Barry added little spice to the amuse-
ment by his daring sliding, but his fool
hardness retired him much the worst
for a battering ram collision. Another
amusing feature was a play made by
Robinson. He ran In from left field
across the miniature diamond. and put
out runner at first base. 1t was IL
o'clock when the sport concluded.

OTTAWA, Ont. Dec. 26. - Hon.
Thomas McGreevy, formerly a member

defraud the government, stated today
that he intended to show who the real
culprits were when his case came to
trial, iltimating that he would sum
mon several cabinet ministers and
members of parliament to prove that all
the money he receiued from the harbor
works contractors went into the Tory
campaign fund. and that some of the
ministers who are now prosecuting him
profited by his relations with the con-
tractors, and handled portions of the
money, which, he says, was obtained
with their full knowledge that it was to
be used tor political purposes.

EMIGRANT COMMISSIONS.
Walker Reaffirms the Ruling
Against Higher Rates.

CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-Chairman Walker
| today handed down decision OF the
commissioners of the Western Traffic
association concerning applications
made by members for permission to pay
| higher commissions on emigrant traffic
than those authorized. The decision
reaffirmS the commissioners letter Of
| Nov. 80, prohibiting the payment of
more than IS west of Chicago and st.
Louis and 81 west of the Missouri river
OH California business.
At the hearing of Dec. 16 the main
! point considered was the demand of the
| Rock Island for alleged necessary re-
| lief. demand in which the Union Pa
cifc and the Denver & Rio Grande
united. These were the only lines
which set up any reason why the order
| of Nov. 80 should not go into effect Jan.
1, as planned.
According to the commissioners, the
| application seems to be chiefly based
upon evidence from the firm of a. E.
Johnson, and they make a point of
showing that the evidence stops short
where A. E. Johnson q Co. got their
money to pay commissions. They in
| Sist that none of the evidence shows
! that there are any outside lineS-that is,
| lines outside of the Western Traffic
aSSOciatIOn-frOm whom johnson & Co.
| got their commissions. They say it is
| peculiar that johnson d Co. should pay
| these commissions and should be will
ing to reveal the fact, while there is no
| evidence that any railroad line really
| pays the commission.
1t is the opinion of the board that the
| whole transaction is a persistent effort
OH the part of Johnson q Co. and other
emigrant agents in New York to break
down the commission agreement.
Each case when run down is traced to
these concerns and goes no further.
| Chairman Walker and the commits
siOners failed to see any occa sion what
ever for authorizing any varia ton from
the agreed basis. In fact, they con-
slider the possibility of placing the mat
ter upon frmer foundation by the in
| PRODUCTION of additional safeguards I'M
| der plan which has been discussed to
some extent, and which will be tOrmu-
lated in circular for examination by
members preparatory to being pre-
scented to the next meeting OF the adj
viSory board, called for Jan. |.

BOXERS BLOCKED.
Supt. Murray Will Not Allow
KnOck-Outs.

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Superintendent
of Police Murray announced today, as
attempts had been made to revive So
called "knocking out'' matches which
were prevalent some time ago, but
which were stamped out, and that as
statements had been made that Charlie
Mitchell and Jim Corbett, professional
pUgilists, were to meet in Madison
Square garden in the early part of
February, he would not allow the fight to
take place. "Since that announcement
was made" said the superintendent,
''another one comes that Peter Maher
and Jack Dempsey will also fight in the
garden some time In January. Now |
am determined that these knocking
out contests shall not be revived. There
will be no prize fighting in this city. If
these men get together and violate the
law, 1T is my duty to arrest them and [
will do so. OF course. | cannot and do
not desire TO prohibit sparrIng exhibit
tions, but the law does--~s permit prize
fighting" The superintendent added
that he will notify the pugilists them
selves and also the management of the
Madison Square garden of his views in
the matter.
Charley Mitchell and Frank Slavln
called at police headquarters to-day to
see Supt. Murray, but the latter had
gone home. Mitchell expressed disap-
