ATTORNEYS RECEIVE DECISIONS
But Commissioners Find Don't Help
City Any.

The decisions of the interstate COM
merce commission on the grain and lum-
Der cases which the city of Wichita
brought, have been received by attor-
neys Helm and Ashbaugh and they are
in accord with the Associated Press re-
ports given out a few days ago.
In the grain case there is reduction Of
two cents or the rate from Wichita to
Galveston, which makes the new rate
2SIh cents per hundred pounds instead
of the Is cent rate which Kansas City
has.
This is the case in which a reduction
was most wanted and while there is q
reduction of two cents on the rate. yet
It is the consinus of opinion that really
nothing is gained.
In deciding the grain case the court
holds when competition exists at the
more distant points which does not OBJ
tain at the intermediate or nearer points,
and where such competition has actually
produced at the more distant point, the
low rate which the carrier cannot con
troll and must meet TO obtain a share
of the business. there sections do not
in a case like that now up. prohibit the
disparity in rates 50 long as the low
competitive rate is renumerative TO the
carrier and the non competitive rate is
a reasonable one in itself.
In this case the finding of the court
was that competitive conditions do exist
at Kansas City. which 90 not exist at
Wichita, and that these conditions have
actually produced the low rate from KAN
sas City.
The court finds that the present rate
from Wichita IS somewhat too high. but
if it be reduced in accordance with the
findings, it is difficult to sec how these
defendants can be said 20 be in violation
Of the third and fourth sections OF the
act
II not reduced, it appears that our or
der should be directed against the IN
reasonabIeness OF the Wichita rate and
not aaginst the adjustment Of rates.
It was the conclusion OF the court that
any charge in excess Of 2sis cents PEI
hundred pounds for the Transportation
OF grain from Wichita to Galveston is
unreasonable and an order viii BE- t.
sued directing that the defendants cease
from maintaining the present rate q
3osk cents.
In the lumber case the court came 70
the Same conclusion as 10 the c9mpstitiva
conditions existing Ak Kansas City. C.na-
ha and Lincoln and therefore they are
entitled 70 q lower rate than Wichita.
In deciding this case tbs court holds
that the competition IS rot any stronge-

ISOLATION Is Expected.
CLUB MET LAST NIGHT
Officers Were Elected for
Coming Year.
CLUB MET LAST MIGHT

If the plans Of those in charge of the
work of entertaining the visitors 10 the
meeting of the Southwest Kansas and
Oklahoma Implement and Hardware
Dealers convention, which will be held
here December s, . and L. do not mis-
carry, d. NJ. Parry, president Of the In
ternational Association of Implement
Manufacturers of the United States, will
be in attendance. Mr.. Parry is also pres
idept OF the Parry Manufacturing com
pany OF Indianapolis, which firm IS the
largest makers of carriages in the world.
About one year ago he was spoken OF
favorably as a running mate for Roose-
welt in the next presidential election for
the vice-presidency.
An encouraging letter was received by
Secretary Van Zandt of the association
from Mr.. Parry's secretary yesterday, in
which Mr.. Parry favorably discusses the
invitation to visit wichita during the big
meeting.
The association held its regular month
~ meeting at the rooms of the CONNER
cial club last night. There was quite a
full attendance of members and a num-
Der of matters of Importance were dis
cUssed. \ committee on freight rates
was appointed.
The coming meeting TO be held in this
city December s, . and 10 came in for
special attention. The local jobbing
houses state that their travellers bring
flattering reports of the large number OF
dealers who will attend in fact, the deal
ers are coming en- masse from as far
south as FL Reno and west 10 Mangum.
The dealers are all planning to attend.
The secretary of the association reports
a very fine and attractive program about

facturers than last year will make dis
plays of next years styles of goods
Several prominent eastern manufacturers
will address The meetings. The exact
program will be published in a few days.
The local houses are all showing activ-
ity in polishing up their sample floors
and arranging new goods which they are
receiving. With good weather the con-
vention will no doubt be the most sue
cessful the association has ever held.

NEARLY A QUARTER
MILLION or HOGS
Sold on Wichita Market in
Ten Months.
CATTLE SHOW INCREASE
Conditions Are Favorable for
More Packing Houses.
CATTLE SHOW INCREASE

The receipts Of hogs at the Union stock
yards from the first day of January to
the twentieth day of November this year
were 223. O0s; nearly a quarter of mil
lion. That is the number received and
sold on the Wichita market.
These figures were obtained from the
books of the stock yarcs company and
they show that Wichita mas become an
established live stock market. Taking
from January first to November first
and the receipts this year were 202,S7O as
against 154.76S for the same time last
year. This shows "a gain for the first
ten months of this year Of 4S,I02 hogs
over the same months last year. The re-
ceipts for the twenty days since the
first day of this month were 20,l33 and
the receipts for this month will in all
probability run over thirty thousand.
The receipts of cattle from January
first to November first this year were
1856 against 22,279 for the same time
last year. This shows a gain in cattle
for the first ten months of this year
over the sane time last year of 1855.
Pork packers all over the country re-
cognize, the fact that Wichita is in the
center of one of the best hig sections
of the west and competition will always
insure good prices on this market. The
local packers are going to want more hogs
than they have been killing and packers
in other sections are ready to take the
hogs here whenever the price is low
enough to permit their shipment.
The good time claimed by the hog
raisers and shippers in this section has
arrived. The buyers here now only claim
hogs at fifteen cents under the Missouri
river markets. 1t has always been claim
ed by the shippers in southwestern Kan
sas and Oklahoma that when Wichita
would pay within fifteen cents of the
Missouri river markets no other market
could get their hogs
The success of alfalfa and the short
winters here are conspiring to make this
section of the country the most profita-
BILE for raising hogs and the farmers
are going to raise more of them every
year. This will demand more packing
houses and where is another location
as good as Wichita. The first condition
for the success of packing house is
livestock market The packer who
builds where there is no market estab-
lished must run over the country TO buy
his hogs and that is q costly experiment.
The cattle market here is slowly build
ing up while it is generally conceded
that Wichitas hog market has come t.
stay.

NATURAL HEALING.
interesting Explanation of This Popu
lar Science Given by Wichlta's
Scientific Natural Healer

Owing to the growing interest taken IN
the questions of healing without the use
Of drugs nowadays, a reporter for the
Eagle called upon G. w. G. Jones. the
teo-Nagnetic Healer of this city. at his
Office. No. 4Os East Douglas avenue. for
the purpose of getting a short expiana-
ton Of this question for the beneht OF

EMERGENCY HOSPITAL
PROVISIONS OF LEGISLATION RE.
aARDING VACANCIES.
Appointments Of Directors to Be Made
by the Commissioners-Meas
ure Approved.

An important step toward placing thq
Emergency Hospital directly under the
supervision Of the District Commissioners
has been taken in the proposed amendment
to the District appropriation bill, fostered
by Senator Gallinger, which provides that
all vacancies which may occur In the board
Of directors Of the hospital shall in future
be filed by the District Commissioners.
The Commissioners today forwarded ia.
vorable report to Mr.. Gallinger on the
amendment and also transmitted copy OF
a report from the board Of charities on mo
subject.
The Emergency Hospital. although dee
pending almost entirely upon the appro-
priation 1t receives at the hands OF Con.
gress for its maintenance, has been man.
aged entirely by q board Of directors elect
ed by the hospital corporation The hos
pital has been a private corporation in
many senses, 1t Is claimed, and the Com
missioners have felt they have not proper
voice in the management OF affairs.
Report Of Board Of Charities.
In forwarding their favorable report upon
the proposed amendment the Commission
ers say they fully concur in the report OF
the board Of charities, which states:
1.-The board Of charities is OF the opinion
that this institution, rendering an essential
public service and very largely dependent
on public appropriation for Its support,
should be under the immediate control Of
the Commissioners of the District OF Cos
lumbia. The filing Of vacancies on the
board Of directors. provided for in this
amendment, Is step in the right direc-
ton; but the board Of charities believes
that the only satisfactory solution OF this
question is to provide that the property OF
the institution should be turned over to
the District Of Columbia, and that here
after it be managed as a purely public in
stitution and an integral part Of the local
government
The Filling Of Vacancies.
IF It is desired at this time to provide
only for the filing Of vacancies on the
board of directors by the Commissioners
of the District Of Columbia, 1t would prob
ably be necessary to make the approprta-
ton for the institution contingent upon the
acceptance by the institution of this pro-
vision. The institution Is managed By a
private corporation, and there might be
legal difficulties in the way of providing
that vacancies on the board be tillsd by
the Commissioners of the Distric- os CO.
lumbia unless such action should DE taken
with the consent Of the institution In
volved."

WED TOO LATE IN LIFE.
College Men Do, Says President Eliot
Of Harvard.

A Chicago special to the New York World
says:
The statement Of President Eliot of Har-
ward that the highly educated part of the
people of the country have small families
or no families at all Is corroborated by
President Harper and members Of the Chi
cago University. Prof. Harper said:
II think President Eliot is right There
is no question but the young man should
get out Of college earlier than he does by
at least two years. These two years ought
to be made up in his elementary education.
The two years he would gain in this way
would enable him to start in business or a
profession. and thus accumulate money to
enable him to marry earlier than the COL
lege man does at present. 1 have no sta
tistics as to the size of families of the uni
versity professors, but the percentage Of
bachelors Is very large"
Prof Harper has one Of the largest fami-
lies among the professors of the university
He has four children.
Prof Robert Bruere said: intellectual
pursuits drive away a desire for children.
THE proportion OF bachelors at the uni
versity Is very large. but this may be due
to the fact that most Of them cannot af-
ford to marry"

FOR RIVER AND BASIN
PROPOSED INCREASE IN SUPPLY
OF FISH.
The Inner Pool to Be Transposed Into
Fishing Place for Chill
dren.

Major Richard Sylvester, CHIEF or ponce
AMI game warden OF the District, has called
a meeting of the Game and Fish Protective
Association to be held next week at which,
it Is said, important action Is to be taken
T. is the intention of the game warden to
bring before the association the question
of stocking the river and inner basin with
fish of all kinds. The question was raised
by John w. Caughey in letter to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and the letter was referred
to Major Sylvester. 1t Is the opinion OF
Major Sylvester that with the expenditure
of a nominal sum the river can be kept
supplied with fish, and the inner basin kept
stocked with the smaller varieties. The
latter for the benefit Of children who like
to enjoy the sport Of fishing.
1t Ia Major Sylvester's idea that the inner
basin can be made an excellent fishing
ground for children, and In doing this work
the main river will be benefited. With the
basin stocked in this way and the necessary
safeguards provided, the place would be an
ideal place for children and their mothers
or nurses to resort for pleasure during the
summer months. 1t Is proposed that fishing
tackle shall be kept there for the use of
the children and their guardians, and that
the catch be limited.
Transfers From Canal.
Fish taken from the canal each year. 1t
is believed, will stock the river. The last
time the canal was seined after the water
had been drawn off for the winter the men
engaged in the work emptied the holes in
the waterway for distance Of about ninety
miles at an expense Of 500. Their work re-
suited in saving 1000 small mouth bass, 40
rock, $40 crappie, 3.400 catfish. more than
20 900 of the common varieties, $500 sun
fish and 100 white perch.
Major Sylvester has conferred with the
fish commissioner, and the result Of his
conference will be reported to the members
Of the association when the meeting Is held
next week. The bass and rock and the
larger fish Of other varieties, 1t is intend
ed. shall be put In the river proper. while
the smaller fish and those Of the common
varieties are to go In the basin.
Anglers Favor the Plan.
Local anglers are favorably impressed
with the idea Of keeping the river stocked
in this way. The fish from this source in
addition to what are put In by the fish
commission the anglers believe will result
In great good being accomplished in the
way Of improving fishing along the Poto-
mac river. If necessary, the larger fish can
be taken from the basin each year and put
into the river.
