PRESIDENT TO RETURN.
To Receive Election News at the White
House.

Arrangements have been completed at the
White House for receiving tonight the COM
plete returns of the elections in the eleven
states where ballots will be. cast. President
Roosevelt, who voted this morning in
Oyster Bay, will be back in Washington at
$50 tonight. He will proceed at once to
his offices in the White House annex, where
the telegraph room is located, and will
there keep in touch with the situation
throughout t." country. The telegraph room

RATES DECLARED UNJUST.
Railways, It is Charged, Discriminate
Against This City on Coal.

A complaint was today filed with the in
terstate commerce commission by Edward
Alder of Boston against the coal-carrying
railroads of the anthracite region. It will
be served at once and the usual time limit
Of twenty days given the. roads for their
reply.
The matter involves the right of these
railroads to discriminate against conSunl-
ers and to pool theirs freight earnings AID
divide the net profits aceruing therefrom.
MI. Alder alleges that he is consumer of
anthracite coal: that he has been injured
by such discrimination, and demands Of the
commission that the roads be enjoined from
the continuance of this violation of the act
to regulate commerce. He AYERS that the
rates on anthracite from the region where
it is mined to New York, Boston, Baltimore
and Washington are unjust in that they
are higher than. rates for btuminOus coal
from points farther distant to the same
destinations.
All Of the lines operating in the anthra-
cite coal region of Pennsylvania. he says,
have pooled their freight earnings on this
product for the past six years, and at least
two of these roads are parallel, while all of
them are natural competitors, but that by
this system of pooling they are enabled to
sustain the rates and maintain a common
rate instead of a competitive one which
would benefit the consumer
In all cases, the complaint alleges, where
the owners of the mines were independent
operators and have refused to sell to the
railroads they have been Disseminated i
against to at least per cent of the f. o. b.
prices of anthracite at tide water.
The complaint is similar to that made not
lcng since by w. r. Hearst, and will re-
ceive the keen attention of the interstate
commerce commission when it is called for
hearing.

PREMIER CoMBEs WILL RESIGN.
So Announces at Meeting of Council
of Minister'S

PARIS, November 3.-The reports that
Premier Combes intended to resign became
more persistent this afternoon, following
the action of M. Jaures, the socialist leader
in notifying the president of the council of
his intention to interpellate the government
on the subject of the strikes in the north
ern spinning district, but the reports are
not traceable to any authoritative source.
On the contrary, NJ Combes himself main
tains entire silence on the subject, and it
was learned from his immediate encourage
that M. Jaures Interpolation probably will
have an effect exactly opposite to that gen.
orally expected.
NJ. Combes' answer to the interpellati ton
will show that the government has done
everything possible to secure arbitration,
and in view of his explanation the pre-
mier's immediate associates say M. Jaures
and the socialists will continue to vote in
support of the government, thus ensuring
the premier majority and obviating any
expected reason for his resignation
While the retirement of NJ Combes con-
tnues to be probable later, the premier has
not yet announced his intention to do so,
and there is 10 present indication that
his retirement is imminent.

ENGLAND NOT SATISFIED.
Will Probably Renew Request for the
Extradition of Lynchehaun.

There are indications that the British
government is not to accept as final the
action of the Illinois eXtradition commits
sioner, who refused to hold for extradition
the Irishman Lynchehaun, charged with
murderous assault upon his landlady in
Ireland. An inquiry into the precedents in
such cases discloses the fact that the ac-
ton Of the Illinois commissioner does not
prevent the bringing of new extradition
proceedings before any other United States
commissioner or even United States
Judge. Within the past year, indeed, two
Americans charged with murder in Mexico
were surrendered to the Mexican govern
ment by a Texas magistrate after one COM
missioner had previously denied the appli-
cation for extradition.
It is believed that the British authorities
regard the principle involved In this
Lynchehaun case as of the greatest Inn
portance, and consequently they are ex-
pected to prosecute 1t further.
