them. The effect is to give them an
enormous advantage over smaller COM
petitOrS located at other points. AL
ready these competitors have mostly
ceased to exist These disclosures af-
ford a prominent illustration of the
manner in which secret rate conces-
sions are tending to build up great
trusts and monopolies at the expense
of the small Independent operator
The additional staten ent is made
that all of the traffic officials who ad-
being given the favored shippers main
tanned that the published tariffs, at
rates exacted of the smaller shippers,
were too low.
GRAIN RATES.
The commission found also in investi
eating complaints made by western
millers that the carriers east of Chi
cago made no serious pretense of main
tanning the export rates on wheat, and
that the carriers had agreed among
themselves upon rate from Chicago
219 cents below the published tariff, re-
sulting in a discrimination of from 21z
to cents against flour. The open wheat
tariff from Kansas City to Chicago has
been II cents, and the actual rate as
low as cents.
CONCESSIONS.
Taking up the practice prevalent in
the west, of allowing some particular
individual a concession which enables
him to handle practically all the grain
the report says:
while the investigation of the COM
mission has not fully covered this as
pect of the case as yet, it is a matter of
common information and we know from
repeated complaints received that some
firm, or some one individual purchases
substantially all the grain which is
handled by a given line of railway and
the claim is made and the inference is
almost a necessary one that this firm
or individual must receive concessions
which enable it, or him, to underbid
different lines in an effort to obtain a
share of the business and to divide it
up among different competing routes,
deem it necessary to drive out of busi-
ness the small buyer and to operate
through a single large concern. One ef-
feet of this is, to put the miller out of
the market as an independent buyer"
Dealing with the tariff associations,
the commission states that the secret
agreed" rates have been manipulated
through these agencies and says:
'-It is not the business of this COM
mission to enforce the antitrust act,
and we express no opinion as to the ie
gality of the means adopted by these
associations. We simply call attention
to the fact that the decisions of the
United States supreme court in the
trans Missouri and Joint Traffic asso-
feet on the railway operations of the
country. Such associations in fact ex-
ist now as they did before those deciS-
ions and with the same general effect.
In justice to all parties we ought pro-
baby to add that it is difficult to see
how our interstate railways could be
operated with due regard to the inter-
est of the shipper and the railway with
out concerted action of the kind af-
forded through these associations

THE DEFENSE BEGINS.
Mrs. Richardson Wept While Her
Son Gave His Testimony.

Plattsburg, Mo, Jan. 23.-The defense
today began the presentation of its
side of the case The last witness put
upon the stand by the defense will be
Mrs. Richardson herself. That probably
will be tomorrow afternoon. The de-
fendant's face was paler than usual
when she entered court today.
The first witness introduced by the
defense was Johnnie Richardson, the IA
year-old son of the defendant. He was
questioned with view to explaining
neSSeS for the state had testified had
been seen late at night in company with
Stewart Fife, sitting on the steps of a
church some distance from the Rich
ardSon home.
Young Richardson said that on the
night in question he had left home
with his mother about half-past eleven
o'clock to find Mr.. Richardson They
had met Fife at the church steps and
Fife had gone to the st. Charles hotel
and reported that Richardson was
there. Then his mother had gone alone
to the hotel and took the father home.
The state made no attempt by cross
examination to break down the boys
testimony. Mrs. Richardson wept while
her son was testifying::
Mrs. J. w. Grant, a sister of the MUIR
dered man, testified that she was at
the Richardson home the night that
Mrs Richardson brought her husband
home from the hotel She said her
brother was very much under the in
f1uence of liquor. Mrs. Richardson's
general reputation in Texas, Kansas
and Missouri. where she had lived was,
she said, good.
DR.. w. NJ Kerr, a resident of Savan-
nah for twelve years and Peter Chris
tiansen, who was member of the
grand jury that indicted Mrs. Richard
son, also testified to Mrs. Richardson's
good character.
Christensen was asked: ''You never
heard others discuss her character?'
mo, sir; because 1 suppose there was
nothing bad in it to discuss"
"Ands you signed the indictment
against her for murder?'
Yes SIR

TAFT FOR FREE TRADE.
If Some Way Can Be Found For
Raising Revenue.

San Francisco, Jan. 23.-Referring to
the Philippine tariff in a speech before
the Union League club prior to his de-
parture for the east, Governor w. H.
Taft is reported to have said:-
81 know from reading your papers
and talking with some of your mer-
chants that you are anxious to have
free trade between the Philippines and
America. In many respects that would
be an admirable arrangement, if it were
possible to run the government of the
Philippines without the indirect tax
alton involved in levying customs du-
ties. 1t would crafty the commission
very much if congress would take off
altogether the tariff imposed by the
Dingley bill. All we desire is to have
money enough to run a good govern
ment. My view is that as soon as trade
is established and avenues opened, a
small tariff will form a very slight OBJ
stacle to the course of business between
the Philippine and California"

THIS TIME THE CHARM.
Lit Crum at Last Sure to Be u.
S. Marshal.

The third time proved the charm with
Littleton S. Crum, who was nominated
Wednesday for United States marshal.
Twice before he has had the office
of United States marshal almost with
in his grasp, only to see it flee away
from him, but the third time, after a
long struggle, ne has been nominated
by the president for the place. and all
that now remains is for the nomination
to be confirmed by the senate
The name of Lit Crum has been a
familiar one in Kansas politics for al
most thirty years, particularly in the
Third congressional district, where ne
managed for several years the political
fortunes of Bishop w. Perkins.
Crum is a native of Kentucky He
was born in that state 56 years ago,
but his family moved to Illinois before
the war broke out. Before he was quite
Il, in July, 1862, he enlisted in the
SeVenty-SeVenth Illinois infantry, and
in the three years that he saw service
he got mixed up in a number of fights
He was wounded at Chickamauga in
1863, but stayed in the army until July,
1865. He was at one time captured by
the COnfederates and kept for some
time in Libby prison. He was finally
exchanged, and the next day he wan
aged to get into the battle of Liberty
Gap.
Crum came to I4abette county and
settled in Oswego in 1867. He is a har-
nessmaker by trade, and now owns a
harness shop in OSwego, but he has also
been in the newspaper business, and
has considerable property. He resur-
rected the Oswego Register in 1873, and
this brought him the Oswego postoffice
in 1876, and he held that job for several
years
1t has always been Crum's ambition
to be United States marshal. While In
gals was senator from Kansas he
promised Crum the job, but another
man got the place. When Lucien Baker
became senator again Crum was prom
ised the marshalship, and he was very
sure of it, and again it failed him.
That destroyed Crum's friendship for
Baker, and he promptly put on his war
paint and blanket. took his tomahawk
in hand, and left the Baker reservation
He joined the Burton camp, and Burton
promised to give him his ambition.
That was months ago. For the past
three months it has been announced
that Senator Burton was trying to land
Crum, and finally he has landed.

CORN BLOCKADE.
A Thousand Cars on Track in
Kansas City.

Kansas City, Jan. 2S.-A corn block
ade with the grain commanding high
prices and the great southwestern
country buying from the north and
east, instead of having corn for sale,
is the anomalous condition that exists
in Kansas City.
Grain men say there are 1000 cars of
corn on track here and the railroad
yards so full that it takes many days
to get corn started out of the city after
it has been ordered shipped. Most of
the corn is coming from Iowa and
northeastern Nebraska, but the Da-
kotaS and northern Illinois are contrib
uting large supplies now.

Contains No Tobacco and is Pleasant and
Easy to Use.
The fact that the smoking of tobacco
is injurious to the health is no argument
against the use of DIR. Blosser's Catarrh
Cure in pipe, or in the form of cigar
cites, as this remedy contains no tobacco
or any injurious drug. The effect of .
remedy applied directly to the diseased
part is much better than the uncertain ac-
tion of medicines taken into the stomach.
This is the philosophy, profound as it n
simple. of the treatment of catarrh with
DIR. Blossers Catarrh Cure.
1t is the only known remedy that can
penetrate the receSSes of the head, throat
and lungs. No liquid remedy can do this.
No spray that ever was devised-surely
no CONSTITUTIONAL nOstrum taken into the
stomach-can reach the inflamed surfaces
and cleanse, sOothe and heal them as this
medicated smoke-vapor does.
