s1oooo,ooo IN A FLOUR DEAL.
Pacific Coast Milling Interests About
to Consolidate.

Portland, Ore, March 5.-The largest
industrial consolidation ever Inderta-
ken in the Pacific northwest is being
quietly worked into shape In this city
and San Francisco. The enterprise is
an amalgamation Of the interests of the
great export flour milling firms of the
Pacific coast No hint has been given
as to the capitalization of the proposed
consolidation, but it will probably be
somewhere In the neighborhood of $780,
100000. AS now outlined, the combi-
nation will embrace mills having an
annual capacity of over 100000 bar
rels of flour. The corporations inter-
ested in the proposed combines are:
The Portland Touring mills of this
city, the Puget Sound FIGURING Mills
Company of Tacoma, the Centennial
mills of Seattle and Spokane. and the
Sperry flour mills of Stockton and San
Francisco, Cal. These concerns prac-
tically control the flour trade of the
Orient, their operations extending from
Vladivostock and Port Arthur as far
south as Singapore.

STATE My SUE YOUNG
Attorney General Mullan Files
Report On Ex.Binder's AL.
legged Overcharees.
In His Opinion the State Should
Begin Action to Recover
S4,637.
Recommends That the Whole
Matter Be Taken Into Court
for Settlement.

Des Moines, March 5.--Action of re-
covery should be begun by the state
against ex-State Binder Lafayette
Young by reason of overcharges for
binding, according to a report sub
mitted by Attorney General Mullan to
the executive council yesterday.
The report of the attorney general
contains the facts and conclusions OF
how in the matter of the account OF
the former state binder, Hon. Lafayette
Young" in the language of the preface
TO the document, an extensive type
written one of sixteen pages. In pre-
raring the report Mr.. Mullan has taken
coxen, the expert who recently probed
into the eX-binder's accounts. He has
given his conclusions of law, he says.
as based on such facts.
The conclusions of Attorney General
Mullan as to the aueged overcharges
by ex- Binder Young are in striking ac-
cord with the findings of the experts.
Philip H. Skinner and William Hedges.
who examined into the accounts last
year under orders of the executive
council. Mr.. Mullan finds the total
amount of the overpayments to the eX-
binder in the two years covered by the
examination was $4637T3. Messrs.
Skinner and Hedges found the over
payments amounted to nearly the same,
or S4,79S.33.
These overpayments have been in the
main on pamphlets and documents not
bound in covers, but charged for as If
covered, and on reports of state officers
that were sewed when the law contem-
plates they shall be stitched.
Attorney General Mullan finds two
classes of items are involved in those
on which there were overpayments.
One class is those where the compen-
sation was certified by the secretary OF
state by mistake. as for pamphlets and
documents bound in paper covers sup
posedly, when, in fact they were not
so bound. The overpayment of items
paid under mistake of fact, the report
SAYS, amounts to S1,9O0.S9. The sums
thus paid, Mr.. Mullan says. without
hesitation, may be recovered from the
former state binder by the state.
The other class of items is those in
which payment was made under mis-
take of law. This, according to the re-
port, is much more difficult question
of solution and there is doubt whether
the state can recover in cases where
there has been overpayment Of this
kind.
The report. however, recommends
that the whole matter be taken into
the courts for adjudication. The exec
utive council held brief meeting yes
terday afternoon. 1t took no action az
to Mr.. Mullan's recommendations and
concluded to act upon them later, after
4 full examination of the report. The
matter is now out of Mr.. Mullan's
hands and he awaits instructions from
the executive council as to how he
shall proceed.
The report, after entering in detail
into each of the thirty seven items on
which Mr.. Mullan finds there were
overpayments, makes the following
tabulation of these items:

WAR ON RA|E CUTTING
Attorney General Knox Will Seek
to Have the Railway Com
panies Enjoined.
Would Uphold the Interstate
Commerce Law, Which Is
Being Violated.
Indictment for Contempt Would
Be Possible Ii Injunction
We're Possible.

Washington, March 5.-Within q
short time Attorney General Knox Will
file bill in some court of equity. not
yet designated, to determine whether
certain railways which persistently
violate the interstate commerce law
can not be restrained by process OF
Injunction His decision to do this is
partly due to representations made by
the interstate commerce commission
ers, who have for a long time been
painfully cognizant of the fact that the
law is frequently being violated by
some of the railroads.
The offenses particularly complainer
of are rate cutting and rebates. The
action soon to be taken by the attor-
ney general will probably also attempt
to break up freight and passenger rate
pools, and, in fact, to enforce strictly
the interstate commerce law in all its
bearings.
The details of the contemplated pro-
ceedings have not been worked out
and, in fact, it not yet definitely de-
termined in what jurisdiction the pro-
ceedings will be instituted or against
what roads. Members of the inter-
state commerce commission and Of
ficials of the department of justice be-
!ieve that the law can be enforced
by bringing injunction proceedings
against the offending lines to prevent
them from cutting rates or offering re-
bates, and also, probably, from form
ing pools.
The object of the injunction pro-
ceedings is to make it possible, of the
offense is continued, to indict the cor
poration for contempt of court NO
such method has heretofore been used
for enforcing the interstate commerce
law, but some of the chief legal Of
ficers of the government believe that
the method will prove effective.
It was explained authoritatively
that the expected proceeding had
been under consideration for some
time, and that if it was to be popu-
larry accepted as a part of any general
policy of the administration such a
popular belief would have no basis
except in the administrators determ-
nation to enforce the laws as they
stand on the statute books.
1t was explained also that the COM
ing proceeding was not instituted for
the purpose of satisfying the clamor III
some quarters against trusts. For a
long time the interstate commerce
commission has been trying to find
means to enforce more effectively tha
laws which were framed to regulate
rail transportation. and the COM
mission hac recently secured the
hearty cooperation of the department
of justice.
1t may be some weeks before the
proposed bill will be filed, one of the
reasons for delay being that the attor-
ney generals Office is busy with the
preparation of the bill of equity to be
filed against the Northern railway mer-
ger for alleged violation of the Sher-
man antitrust act.

In one of the st. Louis Sunday

by glass partitions. A ST. Louis paper
says that during session of the school
one of the teachers was much annoyed
by loud talking in an adjoining room.
At last, unable to bear it any longer.
he mounted chair and looked over the
partition. Seeing that one boy who was
a little taller than the others was talk
ing a great deal, he leaned over, hoisted
him over the partition and banged him
into chair in his room, saying: Now
be quiet!'
quarter of an hour later small
head appeared round the door and a
