Butler, Pa, Feb. 4-Realizing that
she has ruined her husband, Mrs. Sof-
fel does not wish to bring further dis
grace and humiliation upon him. She
now desires a change of venue when
she faces justice.
In tears and with piteous pleading
sne made this request to Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Robb of Allegheny coun-
~ in the hospital here today. She said
she would go anywhere to have the
punishment meted out TO her for her
crime.
She is willing to meet any fate the
law may place upon her, but does not
want the punishment administered in
the court house across the street from
her old home. She begged and pleaded
with Mr.. RObb for almost two hours
to grant her this much. She begged
in the name of her husband, who is Mr..
Robb's friend, and told him that her
husband was in no way to blame for
her shameful conduct.
Mrs. Soffel told the attorney that she
was not a bad woman. She said that
while she knew that she had been
charged with a crime against the state,
she had never sinned. She pleaded that
her act was brought about through her
sympathy for the Biddles.
Mr.. Robb told her he was friend of
her husband and would like to Tighten
the burden OF his sorrow and disgrace,
but could not make any definite prom
Use to her at this time. When she had
finished her pleadings Mr.. RObb ques-
toned her with particular reference TO
the place where they took refuge in
their fight She listened, but refused
to make any reply that would incrim-
mate those who were connected with
the plot

DISCRIMINATION CASE UP.
Salt Lake Interested in Testimony
Rofc,,o NO-o,,,ieuioT

Salt Lake Interested in Testimony
Before Commission.
Washington. Feb. 4-The interstate
commerce commission today began
hearing testimony in what is known
as the Denver case, involving the
freight tariff on eastbound traffic from
California to Denver over the lines
running between Missouri river points
and the Pacific coast via Denver.
William Sproule. traffic manager Of
the. Southern Pacific, was the only wit
ness today, and he explained in detail
the relative rates on various items as
between the coast and Denver and Mis-
souri, points. He contended that con-
ditions were such that a higher tariff
against Denver than against Mis-
souri, river points was fully justified;
that the competition was greater on
goods for Missouri river points than to
Denver. This competition was partlc-
ularly heavy from the east, Which
places goods at Missouri river points
at such rates that the tariff from the
coast had to be lower for those points
than for Denver, which was far less
affected by such eastern competition.
The principles of the Denver case
are applicable to Salt Lake, and local
shippers are watching the outcome
with a great deal of interest. At pres
ent many kinds of freight can be
shipped from Chicago TO Portland and
back to salt Lake cheaper than they
can be shipped directly to Salt Lake.
Business men here are anxious TO Sc
cure a change of conditions, and if the
Denver men are successful, the Com
mercial club may take up similar
fight for the benefit of Salt Lake.
