The Commission Ruling on Divisions.
Special to the Gazette.
AUSTIN. TEX, Oct. 22.-The commission
issued brief document to-day, explanatory
of circular No. 20 about which certain in
quiries have been made 1t is as follows:
The lowest rate in commodity tariff No.
3 is cents, while the rate for twenty-five
miles is cents per 100 pounds. If this
twenty miles is composed of the mileage of
two lines, A and B, whose regular basis of
division is \ 50 per cent and B ~
per cent the proportions of the rate,
q cents, would be for A 3 $40 and for B
= 40 cents per 100 pounds. Such proper
tons having been represented to the COM
mission as unreaSOnably low, the first sec
ton Of circular No 20 was made to secure
to each of the lines A and B revenue
equal to cents per 100 pounds, which is
the lowest rate named in commodity tariff
No. 3, thus making the through rate for
the twenty-five miles in question 5
instead of cents per 100 pounds.
Second, the rate in the same tariff for forty
miles is s cents per 100 pounds. If the
forty miles is composed of the mileage of
two lines, A and B, whose regular basis of
divisions is, A, IS per cent and B, 25 per
cent, the proportions of the rate of
$ cents would be for A, Is
cents, and B. 2 cents per 100
pounds. Section of circular 20 secures to
the line B revenue of 4 cents per 100
pounds (the lowest rate in the tariff with
out affecting the proportion of the line A,
thus making the through rate for the forty
miles in gu estion 10 cents instead of S cents.
a due regard for the third and fourth sec
tons of circular No. 20 must in all cases be
observed.
The commission will change its former
rulings respecting demurrage for unload
ing cars, making it 81 day for the first
five days, after forty eight hours elapses,
and So day thereafter until the cars are
released. On the arrival of the cars and
the placing of them in position to be un-
loaded, notice to the consignee will be
made mandatory.

The KATY Offices.

The Kansas City Journal has the follow
ing dispatch regarding the removal of the
Missouri. Kansas and Texas general offices
from Sedalia TO Parsons. TO say the least
the Katy seems TO have got into bad box.
The dispatch says:
Pursuant to Governor Humphreys let
ter. published Sunday, Acknowledgement
Ives was in the city to-day for the purpose
of aScertaning whether the Missouri, Kan
sas and Texas railway company was COM
pying with the law of the state III refer
ence to its general Offices. He will report
to the governor tomorrow, i'll substance,
that the company had secured ample &C
Communications for its general Offices and
clerks, but thai the rooms are vacant, the
business Of the company transacted else
where and the laws of the state that created
the Missouri, Kansas and Texas violated as
they have been heretofore by that company.
The attorney general said that the in
junction suit now pending in Missouri, and
which was recently removed to the Fed
eral court. would not be accepted as an ex-
cuSe on the part of the company for violat-
ing the law of this state. If the company
is compelled while the suit is pending TO
maintain two sets of general offices, one in
Sedalia and one in Kansas, it can blame no
one but its own management. BY means of
receivers. leases and otherwise, the com
pauy has managed to evade the Kansas law
for nearly twenty years.
Long before the road passed out of the
hands of the last receivers the company
was notified that it would be required to
comply with this law H. X. Enos, then
president of the company, made the most
positive and explicit pledges to my prede-
cessor that so soon aS the stockholders re
gained control of their property the general
offices would be established in this state.
Their pledges were violated. and when
again forced TO act the executive committee
TO the company in New York ordered the
Offices removed to Parsons. Buildings
Were secured there, but day after day
passed, until finally the injunction was
issued, and now they will no doubt attempt
to make this an excuse for violating our
law II viii not do Unless the offices of
that company are at once established in
this state, in compliance with the spirit of
our law, the company will pass out of ex-
istence ard 4 receiver will administer upon
the property
The state has secured the services of
Hon c. II. kimbal. one of the leading
lawyers of the state. TO assist the attorney
general in the case

A Rich and Clever Woman.

Lady Role (who died recently at tn,
age OF 91) was married in 1922. Hel
husband was forty years her senior
and he survived his marriage twent,
years. She had lived since his deati
at Bicton for the greater part of each
year, an exercised a enevolent des
potism over the whole district. Sht
was a most imperious woman, and hat
all the old-fashioned aristocratic no
tions Of the last century. She main
tanned great establishment, including
q chaplain, and exercised magnificent
hospitality. Lady Rolle's charities o.
every kind were munifcent, and to tht
Church of England she has given up
wards Of 100000. 1t was entirel,
through her liberality that the sea o.
Truro was founded, as she gave e40..
wv 10 the endowment fund. She vii
be sorely missed by the poor people OF
the neighborhood. Lady Role was
very clever woman, wonderful to the
last in her capacity for business and fol-
her strong, shrewd common sense, and
always resolute to have her own way
In everything. Like her husband, she
was Tory of the Eldon type, and in
the old days she subscribed largely to-
ward the expenses of the county cleo
lions. She took great and intelli.
gent interest In politics, and she could
tell many good stories both Of political
and social celebrities Of the last hun
dred years. Her memory was extraor.
dinary, and she always spoke with
characteristic bluntness. Bishop Phil.
potts once remarked that there had
been no such woman In England since
the famous Duchess Of Marlborough.

In view of the almost incredible
progress of the last two generations it
is not the best judgment which pro-
nounces the post electric system of
transportation the dream of an inven-
tive maniac. There is a freshness
about the proposition that we shall
yet send letters across the continent
between the dawns of successive days
that takes the average breath away,
and the suggestion that passengers are
to be rushed through space at the rate
of 200 miles per hour is apt to alarm
the apprehensive. The truth is that
we live in phenomenal age. All the
ancient faiths concerning the develop
ment of material things are being
rudely jostled by the pushing shoulders
of science. 1t is no longer the dream
of visionary that we shall converse
with persons thousand miles awav.
Marked progress has been made toward
solving the problem of arial naviga-
ton, and although it is yet impossible
to predict the ultimate outcome it is
not insanity to believe that air ships
may yet run counter to the winds.
The turning of key nluminates q
populous city and new explosives shat.
ter in an instant obstacles which were
deemed immovable. There are i'm.
provements to the telegraph which
would have astounded MORSE had he
lived to see them. Nor is this true
only in the world of mechanics. On
the turf all expected records have
been lowered and men have walked
more miles on the tanbark track in q
week than horses could travel. The
EifFEL tower in Paris looks down in
scorn on the tradition that no edificc q
thousand feet high could be made 70
support its own weight. The pessim.
ISIS may growl as much as they please
but the fact remains that this ia 4bs
grandest age in the history of ths
world.
