Rate Problem a Hard One.

Unexpected opposition to further radi-
cal advances in rates developed yesterday
at meeting Of the general freight agents
of western railroads in Chicago. The
agents met under orders OF their executive
officers to cancel all special commodity
rates, adopting instead the nominal basis
of rates in effect in the days of rebating
and secret cutting.
At the meeting yesterday some of the
freight agents, while not fatty opposing
the plan to abolish all commodity rates,
refused to declare what action they would
take in certain cases. The freight agents
may be in session several days.

HARkINS' HARD LUCK.
Thought He Was Free but Was Remanded
to jail.

Edward Harkins, several times convict
ed Of larceny and man marked by the
police as bad actor" was given quite a
run for his money yesterday afternoon in
Judge Harrison's courtroom and although
he was several times in the borderland to
freedom. in the end all his hopes were
blighted and he is still an inmate of the
county Jail. One indictment against the
defendant for stealing thirteen pairs Of
trousers from the Lion Shoe and Clothing
company store was found to be faulty and
the case dismissed. Later in the after
noon the prisoner was tried and acquitted
on another charge of grand larceny from
1919 Fifth street S. 1t was at this juno
ture that dame fortune seemed to smil1
the broadcast, but Judge Harrison re-
marked. "the prisoner will be remanded to
Jail to await the action Of the grand jury
to whom the first case of grand larceny
In the second degree will be resubmitted."
whereupon the defendant ceased to smile
and was marched back to Jail.

RI. BUYS THE FRISCO
Making Minneapolis Northern Ter
minal Of Biggest Rail System
in the World.
Report of the Purchase Appears to
Be Made on the Best Au-
thority.

The reported purchase of the Frisco line
by the Rock Island will give Minnea polls
a direct through line to the Gulf OF, Mex
leo. It will also make Minneapolis the
northernmost point of the largest railway
system in the world. President Yoakum's
subordinates have given out at Kansas
City and at New Orleans that eventually
the st. Louis & San Francisco line would
reach the twi ncities from Chicago by
new line. It was expected, however,
that the entrance would be
through the purchase Of the Great
Western, thus giving the Frisco a direct
line to Minneapolis from Kansas City,
and this seemed in every way the most
feasible route from Chicago for the Frisco.
The system was continually broadening.
It's last purchase was the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois, giving the Frisco a,
Illinois, giving the Frisco d -chanceaat the
chance at the Chicago-St. Louis business
during the Louisiana purchase exposition.
The Chicago Record Herald says to-
day:
1t is reported on almost official author
ity that the Rock Island has secured con-
troll of the Frisco system and that the
deal is the forerunner of a new and far
reaching community of interest among
western lines. Within one or two months
according to the report, the Rock Island
will be given representation the Santa
Fe board ana the Santa Fe interests will
have an equal representation on the Rock
Island board.
Terms Of the Sale
Thes terms on which the Frisco passes
to the Rock Island are said to be as fol-
lows: For every share of Frisco com
mon stock. $40 in cash. s45 in preferred
bonds and sos in Rock Island preferred
stock
1t is also reported that President Yoa-
KUN will be placed in charge of the new
Rock Island. which will be one OF the
largest if not the largest, systems In the
| world under one management. This ac-
QUESTION of the Frisco would add about
{, 900 miles to- the Rock Island, making it q
system nearly $4,000 miles long. Shoulc
| the Pere Marquette be included, the sys'
| tenn will be over $4,000 miles
In the last hour of the New York stock
| market yesterday a report spread on ths
! exchange that Morgan & Co. had pur
chased control of st. Louis & San Fran
cisco for the Rock Island. It was de
clared that control had been acquired
| through the purchase of a large amount
of common stock. According to these
same reports the price paid for the stocl
was 90, 20 per cent in cash. the balance il
notes extending from six to, eighteen
| months.
| President Yoakum refused to confirm o.
deny the report. Mr.. Perkins was M
more communicative.
