WANT THE RATES ADJUSTED
Governors Van SAINT and Cummins Have
Conference With President Regarding
Railroad Rates.

state commerce law convention, which
was held in St. Louis in October. The
convention included delegates from
more than 800 commercial and bus
mess bodies throughout the country.
1t was pointed ont to the president that
for ten years prior to 1897 the inter-
state commerce commission had exer-
cised the power to adjust railroad
freight rates in order to prevent dis
elimination, but that since that time,
by reason of a decision of the United
States supreme court. that power had
been denied the commission. 1t was
urged by the delegation that law be
enacted by congress comforting upon
the commission the authority to adj
just rates when they were found to be
discriminative in their operation or
in violation of the interstate commerce
act.
The delegation also suggested to
the president the desirability, as the
members viewed the matter, of dis
cussing the subject in his forthcoming
message to congress. The president
did not indicate, however, what his
personal views were, contenting him
self with giving a careful hearing to
the statements made.

RACE WAR IN IOWA.

White Miner Shot and Fatally lnJur.
ed by Negro. =.
Des Moines, Ia, Nov. 22.-Race war
is regarded as imminent at Fraser, a.,
where Thomas Albright, white
miner, was Saturday night shot and
MORALLY wounded by James Price, a
negro. The white miners held meet
ing during the afternoon and voted to
refuse to work longer with the me-
groes They accused the negroes Of
having aided Price to make his es-
cape and the feeling is intense. There
are from thirty-five to fifty negroes in
the mining camp and about 1000
whites. Both sides are heavily armed.
A negro, thought to be Price, was
seen near Ogden, seven or eight miles
from Fraser. He answers the de-
scription of the man wanted and on
seeing that he was discovered con-
cealed himself in corn field. A
posse from Ogden is searching for
MIN and another body of miners from
Ogden is working the river in that di-
rection, while still another body is
making thorough search of all the
negro nuts in Fraser.
If Price is caught it is believed that
the miners, in their present frame of
mind, will do him violence.
Albright is still alive, but the doc
tors say he cannot survive.

ATTACK WAS NOT RESUMED.
Japs Making Nc General Assault Upon
Port Arthur.

ChefoO. Nov. IA Japanese Of
f1cial among the latest arrivals from
Dalny states positively that the gen
eral attack upon Port Arthur has not
been resumed. Rumors to that effect
in Dalny have arisen because fresh
troops. incluuing the Seventh divis-
ion recently landed, are being sent to
the front.
1t is believed that the explosion
which took place on Nov. IL occurred
In some counter tunnelling work.
The recent explosion, which was
heard On Nov. 10, was much heavier
and it is reported upon the best au-
thorities was due to the blowing up Of
q Russian magazine.
1t is expected that the next attack
upon Port Arthur will be a tremen-
dous affair. More reinforcements are
coming to the support of General Noei
than those dispatched to Field Marshal
Oyama
The Japanese are now constructing
coast defense forts at Pigeon bay.
which is accepted as an indication
that they expect to be defending Port
Arthur themselves some day.

MYSTERY STILL uuS0LVEO
CHICAGO AUTHORITIES UNABLE
TO FIND THE SLAYER OF
JOHN W. BATE, JR.

Chicago, Nov. 22,-search for the
murderer of John W. Bate, Jr., the
young Chauffeur who was found dead
in an automobile near Lemont, was
continued during the day. The fact
that the mysterious Mr.. Dove" who
ordered the machine from the Auul
forum hotel has not appeared to aid
in solving the problem caused the po-
lice to believe that beyond doubt the
passenger with the checked suit and
the red necktie is the man they are
seeking. That Dove had two victims
is a new theory developed by the dis
covery of blood under the cushion of
the rear seat of the automobile. One
theory as to how Dove" was able
to escape without being seen by men
who would remember him in the light
of the description which has been Iur.
nished is that Dove" had in the can
vass suit case which he carried anoth-
er suit of clothes. 1t is now thought
he removed his blood stained garments
and donned the others, afterward ty-
ing his cast-off cothing into bundle,
for which search has been instituted.
'#1,s TWO Bullets in His Head.
A post mortem examination showed
that two bullets entered Bates head
in such short succession that their
courses were nearly identical. The
coroner's physician said this indicated
the murderer was either highly excited
or wished to make sure Of Bates death.
