MR.. CLARK AGAINST 1T.
All Commodities to Be In
Cluded in the 25 per Cent
Reduction.
REVISED GRAIN RATES FIRST,
1t Is Expected They VIII Become
Operative About the Middle
of October

What prov ved to be the shortest yet most
important session held by the present
Board of Railroad Commissioners was that
OF Yesterday, when measure was passed
which IT is claimed will reduce all freight
rates on all the lines of the Southern
Pacific Company an average of 25 per cent
on the basis of the schedule in force on the
1st of December, 1894.
1t was passed by the votes of Commits
sioners La Rue and Stanton, Clark's being
q dissenting vote. He explained that he
was in favor of reductions, but thought
that before rates were reduced on all COM
modities the railroad company should be
given a further hearing, as the testimony
taken had more particularly pertained to
grain. He also refused to vote on the
motion of adopting the Stanton substitute
as VIII ole, stating that he wished to pre-
serve his record of having voted for the
per cent reduction on grain and to be COM
PEELED 10 vote on the question as a whole
would necessitate his voting against the s
per cent reduction. He made determined
resistance and despite the explanation of
Chairman La Rue that such an omission
was against the best parliamentary usage
he carried the day and his record as an
S-per- cent friend of the farmer stands un-
tarnished.
1t now remains for the Commissioners to
figure out the rates for the various points
within the State and for the different com
modities and serve them on the railroad
Twenty days after this they become effect
i've.
The first task that will be taken up is the
revision of the grain tariff on the 8 per
cent reduction basis. In addition to ap-
plying this horizontal reduction, the more
fragrant Determinations will be consid-
cred. An idea of the benefit that may
accrue from this revised tariff to the ship
per of grain can be gained from the follow
ing table, the lowest rate now in force for
grain within the State to tidewater points
being 25 cents per ton and the highest

Mrs. Lille r. Pardee has just rounded
out her thirtieth year. She is native of
Ohio and graduate of Buchtel
College. Her maiden name was Lille r.
Moore. Prior to her marriage, which &C.
Cured four years ago, she was instructor
in Greek and Latin at Buchtel College.
She is the wife OF James D. Pardee, an at
torney in Salt Lake City, and has daugh-
ter three years old.
Mrs. Pardee is a prominent member of
the Women's Club of Salt Lake City, a So
ciety organized for the study of political
and domestic economic problems. She be-
longs to the Utah Women's Republican
League and was nominated by the Salt
Lake County convention for the State SEN
ate. She was elected by the State conven-
tion as secretary of the Republican State
Central Committee, to which Office she is
giving the major portion of her time.
Mrs. Pardee is type of the younger
generation of Gentle women in Utah.
Mrs. Emmeline B. Wells, who represents
her sex on the list of Republican candi-
dates for the House of Representatives, is
the widow of Daniel Fl. Wells. one of the
Mormon pioneers and man prominent in
the councils of the church. Notwithstand-
ing the fact that she has ten or more grand
children, she is a well-preserved woman,
with an eye as bright as her keen intellect.
She is woman of affairs and with liter

the State Federation of Clubs. She is
thorough club woman, and has greatly
aided the Omaha club by her bright sug-
gestions and deep interest, and will most
probably be elected to the office of presi-
dent of the State Federation this fall.
This woman candidate has a most
charming personality. She has lectured
on variety of subjects, chiefly literary, in
several towns and cities throughout the
State, and charms her audiences by her
sweet smile and gracious manner before
she has said a word.
In her home she is above reproach. She
has one of the dalntiest, best-kept homes
in all the city. Her three children, the
youngest of whom is about years old, are
the brightest, neatest, best-mannered little
folks you are likely to meet. With her
husband they make up her world not
withstanding the fact tnat she has so many
interests outside. She believes the more
interest woman has outside, the more
she will appreciate and love her home

has am bltions in literary lines to do better
work than she has yet given to the world.

DRIFTING WRECKAGE.
1t Is Believed That the Craft
Were Overwhelmed in a
Great Gale.
CREWS PROBABLY PERIsHED
The Logbook and Cabin Of the
Heaton Washed Up by the
Waves.

CHATHAM, MASS, Sept. 13.-Lots of
wreckage came ashore to-day on the beach
between Orleans and Chatham.
A auarter-board marked "a. Heaton,"
the logbook OF the same vessel and the
vessels stern bearing the name "a. Hea-
tom came ashore at North Chatham.
Later the vessels cabin drifted down near
Chatham bar and was boarded by some
fisherman, who anchored it. They partly
explored it, finding some clothing, watch,
clock and other things.
Some think the Heaton was sunk by a
collision with vessel from the eastward
which was loaded with smoked herring, as
great quantities of boxed herring have
been picked up off here during the last
two days and they were still drifting
ashore with wreckage from the Heaton.
Others think that both vessels were
caught unprepared and were overwhelmed
by the howling gale which swept suddenly
across this coast about midnight Wednes-
day.
Various conjectures are made regarding
the fate of both crews, but very few people
here think that any of them are living, as
the Heaton's yawl-boat drifted ashore at
Orleans TO-DAY.

A Nebraska Woman Who Is Experienced
in Politics.
OMAHA, NEBR.. Sept. 13.-Two parties
in Nebraska have nominated women for
Regent of the State University-the Pro-
hibition party and the Populists. Mrs.
Ella w. Peattie, who was nominated last
week by the Populists, is an experienced
politician" as she was defeated for Direc-
tor of Schools in Omaha last year, for
which position she was nominated by the
Populists and indorsed by the Democrats.
She thinks every possible story was circu-
lated about her at that time, SO enters the
race for Regent with the conviction that
defeat is likely and fame is certain.
Mrs Peattie has achieved distinction in
several lines, the highest probably in the
writing of fiction, though she has been en-
ployed as editorial writer on the daily
World Herald for about seven years. Her
friends think her strong point is her
dainty, artistic style, which of course
shows to better advantage in fiction than
in any other class of literary work. Her
story, which was published last year in
the Cosmopolitan, Jim Lancy's Water
loo,' was talked of in all parts of the
United States. Before coming to Omaha
she was employed en- the Chicago Times.
Mrs. Peattie is leading ms.a Der of the
