L. 6 N. CASE HEARD.
The interstate Commerce Commission
 Takes Up Rate Question.

Washington, October 2S The inter state commerce commission today gave a hearing in the case of Martens against the Louisville and Nashville railroad in- volvtng charges of discrimination Tn tariffs in ythe lumber trade between Tennessee points and Detroit. Mich. The complaint charges that the defendant roads rates on lumber from Fountain Hall Gallatin, Pilot Knob and St. Blaise, Tenn. to Detroit are 22 cents per 100 pounds, while for the longer distance from Nashville the rate is 20 cents.
 Counsel charged today that this diff ference in tariff schedules prejudiced the interests of the complainant and gave Nashville shipments the preference ard that the road thus violated the inter- state commerce laws. The defense argued that the difference in rates was warrant ed by the competitive conditions which did not exist at the other Tennessee points, citing the steamboat competition on the Cumberland river, on which Nashville IS located

States Evidence Wanted.
[. Louis Republic.

From the St. Louis Republic.
 The most potent of factors known to the etiology of poodle is the tolerance of the individual boodler by decent society and the tolerance of those who shield him from consequences.
 John Randolph called it the "asses' milk of human kindness" The phrase could not be improved for application to poodle breeders
 But there is one weapon of the law which the earnest and honest grand juries and prosecuting officers can use now and always with effect. It was used by MT. Folk. Let it be understood that the bribe giver or bribe taker who repents and testifies for the state will always be protected
 Bribery in it's various forms is hard to establish by proof It may flourish so luxuriantly that the smell is loud on every street and yet preserve immunity, unless one of the guilty parties to the crime will testify
 It should be understood that the man who seeks to make atonement by confes- sion will have protection from prose- cution. If that understanding is reached and becomes a rule the most hardened scoundrel will think twice before he puts his liberty in the hands of another man who ceases to be a criminal in fact al q ceases to be under the threat of the law only when the transaction is exposed
 Every circuit attorney in the future of St. Louis should announce the rule and act upon it invariably That course will not remove the causes of bribery, but will reduce the area of it's operations

RoumanIa and Mississippi.
From the Philadelphia North America rr.s nit. 4.nn4.r ,nonunrn have nnf

From the Philadelphia North American.
 The Berlin treaty powers have not t1- dicated their purpose to make any seri- ous efforts to discipline Roumania, and therefore the Balkan state is disposed to treat the American protest against her persecution of the Jews with dis dain. The Roumanian minister to Great Britain publicaly denies Secretary Hay s statements of fact and asserts that there is no discrimination against Jews in Roumania.s
 The United States cannot force Rou- mania to mend her ways, but Secretary Hays appeal may produce results indi- rectly. It Is reported from Brussels that European f1nanciers probably will com bine to prevent the issue of any Rou- manian loan until the anti-Jewish laws of the country are modified. Roumania is not in very good circumstances finan- cially, and the process figuratively de- scribed in the west as "cutting off at the pockets may be more efficacious than diplomacy in bringing her to her senses.
 In the meantime there is wide field for international missionary labors in the southern states, where the burning alive of negroes is a popular diversion. The white Apaches of Corinth. Miss, broke out last Sunday and observed the holy day after the manner of their kind, aided and abetted by a cowardly sheriff.
 If Berlin treaty power were to ask Secretary Hay whether or not the United States is as responsible for the behavior of Mississippi as Germany is for the in- ternal policy of Roumania, convincing negative answer might be hard to frame.
