TO ATTRACT IMMIGRATION.
Northern Pacific and Grent Northern
Apply n $50 Rate to Paci-
fic Coast Points.

Tacoma, Wash, Dec. 9.-It is announced
that the Northern Pacific and Great North>
ern railways have made a So rate for set
tiers and members of their families from
St Paul to Pacific coast points. This is
equivalent to a reduction of one-half of
the present first class rate.
Officials of the local immigration associa-
ton have been working for a year to Sc
cure such a rate, but at first encountered
difficulties in the way of railroad agree
ments, particularly that of the Western
Passenger Lires Association. Officers of
the two roads named have since been able
to so adjust matters TO make such "A
rate possible. \ marked increase in immi-
grafton to this state IS expected as a re-
suit, commencing soon after January !
Chicago Dec. 9.-The roads of the Trans.
continental Passenger Association are
much worried over the report of the action
taken by the Northern Pacific and the
Great Northern roads. 1t is said that they
have put into effect a rate of S25 from St
Paul to all North Pacific coast points for
the benefit of new settlers and for the
members of their families going to join
them in the West. The S25 rate cuts the
regular tariff exactly in half and has not
been authorized by the TranscontinentaI
Passenger Association. The rate affects
all transcontnental rates as well as those
directly involved. 1t is claimed that the
rate has been made as the result of the
work of the Washington Immigration As
sociatiCn. which has been representing to
the roads that if it were granted it would
bring an increase of immigrants to the
North Pacific coast shortly after the be-
ginning of the year. Neither of the two
roads said to have made the rate has ten
dered it to any of its connections as a
baSing rate.

FALSIFIED The RECORDS.
SERIOUS OFFENSE WITH WHICH
ISRAEL :. HIGGINS is CHARGED.
Arrested by Deputy United States
Marshall Sam shelby for Fixing
the Books of n National
Bank in Nebraska.

Deputy United States Marshal Sam Shell
by returned yesterday morning from trip
to Jerico, Cedar county where he arrested
Israel d. Higgins. on the charge of falsify-
ing the records of a national bank at
Ponca, Neb., in 1898. Higgins was lodged
in the county Jail at Nevada and will he
held pending the issuance of an order of
removal, which Judge Philips will be asked
for this morning.
Higgins is about 50 years of age and
filled the position of assistant cashier of
the bank for several years prior to it's col
lapse. After its failure the investigation
brought to light such state of facts as
caused Higgins TO be indicted on thirty
two counts for making false entries in the
banks business. He left the state and
the hunt for him has been made at inter-
walls, but at each time it is claimed he
would leave the place before he could be
reached.
a few months since he located at Jerico.
where he was joined by his wife. Since
that time they have lived there with his
brother-in-law and thought themselves in
perfect security. They were greatly sur
prised when Mr.. Shelby appeared and
placed Higgins under arrest. He declined
to make any statement whatever in con-
nection with the charges against him, but
appeared much distressed over the arrest
and wept when locked up at Nevada.
FaIsifying the records of national bank
is q serious offense and one which the
government severely Furnishes whenever
the perpetrator is caught. If the thirty
two counts in the indictment against Mr..
Higgins are found TO be good he will have
hard time getting out of his dilemma.

Washington. Dec. 9.-The argument in
the case of the Trans-Missouri Railroad
Association was continued in the supreme
court to-day by Mr.. James c. Carter, of
New York, who appeared for the pool Mr..
Carter contended that railroads as public
highways were of the utmost necessity to
civil society, and; like all other institutions
of similar Importance, were entitled to the
protection of the government within GER
tain bounds. He contended that the court
has no jurisdiction TO entertain the pres
ent suit in the absence of law; that the Ian
guage of the antitrust law was too un-
certain and indefinite to justify its main
tenance, and that if it We're sufficiently spe-
ciic the law has no application to railroad
companies, and that, even if it applied to
railroads, the pool is not condemned by
any OF the provisions of the law.
Mr. Carter devoted himself especially to
showing that the trans-Missouri agreement
straint imposed upon it by interstate COM
merce. on the contrary, he urged that it
was an essentially reasonable agreement,
both in respect to the object in view and
the means by which it is attained. If, he
said. the agreement was open to any of the
charges made against it, it was that of
being an agreement TO maintain rates. He
admitted that it was intended to restrain
competition. but urged that competition
was, under certain circumstances. most
ruinous. The only object of competition is,
he said, low prices. but he contended that
low prices were not at all times desirable.
Indeed. he asserted that the country had
been for the past three years filled with the
cry that low prices were responsible for all
our distress. 1t was a fact that while low
prices were a benefit to the consumer, as
such they were an injury to the producer
Equality of price is said Mr.. Carter, what
we want, and We cannot afford to encour-
age competition which does not produce
this, nor one which is carried to such an
extent as to bring ruin to the competitors
and thus foster consolidation and monopoly
under the direction OF the stronger.

LOCAL PASSENGER TROUBLES.
Called Meeting to Consider Violation
of Agreement.

Trouble in local passenger circles has
been caused by four of the lines entering
into combination, as result of which
the members of the BLACK Crook COM
pany, which disbanded here, were taken
out at a half fare rate. A called meeting
of the local passenger association will be
held to-day at it's headquarters IN the Ly-
ceum building, when this matter is eX-
pected TO come in for a good share of the
days discussion. 1t is understood that
charges have been preferred against each
of the four lines concerned in the making
of the half fare rates. Theatrical COM
panies are entitled to a rate of > cents per
mile under the existing agreement, of
which the half fare rate granted was a
clear viola ton.
