FREIGHT DISCRIMINATION.
Wichita Chamber of Commerce Pro
tests to Interstate Commission.

Kansas City, Mo, April 29.-Wichita,
Kan, through its Chamber of Com
mefce has presented petition to the
Interstate Commerce Commission, COM
planning against the railroads for al
legged discrimination in freight rates
The railroads are charged with dis
eliminating in grain rates in favor OF
Kansas City. The main point in the
contention is that, while Wichita is
much nearer the ports on the Gulf o!
Mexico, the same rate on grain is
charged as over the longer haul from
Kansas City to the same points.
A hearing of the Interstate Commits
sion to investigate the charges will be
held at Wichita before June Is.
The roads against which the COM
plant is directed are the Atchison. To

BITTER FEELING EXISTS
At Caribou Over Canadian Attitude on
Burns Assault Case.

Caribou, Me-, April 29.-Very bitter
feeling exists in this section and in fact
AL over the county against Kelly, the
lssailant of Deputy Frank Burns of
Fort Fairfield and it is earnestly hoped
that there will be no delays of the law
in bringing the culprit to justice. The
offence committed is an extraditable
enc and it is understood that the high
est authorities in the province have
stated that they will cooperate in ev-
2Iy possible manner to see that justice
is done.
There has been considerable talk,
however, To the effect that in and about
Woodstock there is intense feeling in
the matter and Il bitter sentiment
against the United States officials with
occasional rumors that Kelly will not
be taken across the border to meet his
trial, but it is not credited that there
can be any serious disturbance over
the matter save that the continued dis
cussion is far from being in the in
terests of pleasant relations along the
border
1t is said that there has been very
little smuggling in recent years along
the border, save the past year or two
in the vicinity Of Houlton, the price of
potatoes having caused considerable eff
fort in that line as an avoidance of the
duty means something like 25 cents n
bushel. Mr.. Burns continues in n very
serious condition and has not been al
lowed to talk about the case TO any
great extent.
