PRESIDENT coNFERs WITH LEAD
ING SENATORS ON RAILROAD
RATE LEGISLATION.
DETERMINED TO CONTINUE THE FIGHT
EXECUTIVE OUTLINES THE MEAS
URE HE DESIRES TO HAVE
i CONGRESS ENACT.

Washington, Nov. 3.-The question
Of railroad rate legislation was consid
cred at length at the White House
during the day at conference be
lom of Illinois and Dolliver of Iowa
two of the men who are expected tt
lead the administration fight in the
approaching session of congress. The
meeting is the first the president has
had since the adjournment of the last
session of congress with the senators
upon whom he depends for the voicing
of the administrations views in such
legislation as may be enacted.
The president outlined the measure
he desires to have congress enact, but
neither Of his conferees would discuss
this beyond saying that in the presi
dents expressions there are no par
ticular notifications of the ideas that
he has already put before the public
The chief feature of these is that the
interstate commerce commission
should be clothed with powers to re
wise railroad rates when found TO be
unreasonable 1t is understood that
the president is committed to no meas
ure so far as phraseology of the de
sired legislation is concerned, but he
made it clear that he will continue his
determined fight for the issues he has
and publicly advocated.

Unique Plan.
Columbus, O., Nov. 3.-The Ohio
Shippers association and Ohio rail
roads have anticipated any action in
regard to rate discrimination which
may be taken this winter. They have
come to an agreement which, it is
thought, will settle for good any fric.

through an allegation of discrimina.
ton against the roads. The agreement
covers Ohio only, but it is looked on
as a great step forward by all con
cerned.

men to represent the railroads All

taken by an individual shipper to the
head Of an individual railroad will be
sent to the Shippers association to be
referred by it to the joint committee
for settlement. 1t is in effect arhitra-
ton of all questions by representa-
tives of the Interested persons
The announcement that an agree
ment had been reached was made dur

For Failing to Complete Third
Street Within the Time Limit.
Contractor VIII Fall Rack On the
Brick Manufacturers for the
Delay.
BOARD OF WORKS MEETING

The board of public works at its
meeting yesterday afternoon decid-
ed that Contractor Thomas Bridges
must pay the city $265 for failing
to complete the reconstruction of
South Third street on time. 1t was
found on examination that the con-
tractor had been unable to work SO
days since he began the contract, but
bad weather reduced this number to
26 1-2 days. At $10~a day, which is
the penalty in the contract, the con-
tractor owes the city the above
amount.
The contractor claims that he was
delayed by the failure of the Ev-
ansville brick concern that furnish
ed the brick, TO deliver II on time.
This is matter however. that The
contractor and brick men must set
tie between themselves. Mr.. Herbert
$. Liant. of Evansville. the brick
man. arrived yesterday and will pro-
baby make settlement with the
contractor.
City Engineer L. A. Washington
will complete the Third street estf-
mates as soon as possible, and
enough of them will be withheld to
insure the payment of the penalty to
the city
The alley between Seventh and
Ninth, Broadway and Jefferson
streets, was ordered repaired by the
street inspectors forces.
The street inspector was instruct
ed to sweep South Third street
twice week. 1t is over a mile long.
and cannot be cleaned any oftener
with the city's present facilities. The
brick streets in the business section
are swept every night.
A new question was sprung on
the board. 1t was whether or not a
property owner in front of whose
property no sidewalks existed be-
fore the street was ordered recon-
structed, can be made TO put down
sidewalks after the street is paved.
II was brought up in connection
with the Riglesberger property on
South Third. Mr. Riglesberger
claims there were no sidewalks be-
fore the street was paved and the
city cannot require sidewalks now.
The question was referred to the So
hcito;.
Contractor Bridges was instructed
to clean off Kentucky avenue where
paved and to repair the sidewalks
so they may be used.

Campton, KY, Dec. 14.-As Jesse
Hare was drilling for oil on the Ad-

north of this place, a strong flow of
gas was struck, the pressure being
so strong that It caused the oil to
flow from the well, which caught fire
from the boiler, burning the derrick
and all the machinery to the ground,
causing a loss of about 81 500. The
oil is still burning, but the fire is

Paducah theatergoers were treat
ed to something new towards the
latter part of the performance. The
first act was somewhat dull, but the
story as 1t unfolds itself. becomes
more and more interesting.
The auditorium ana stage scene
of Covent garden in the last act was
the thriller. Before 1t was over a
number of people in the audience
were frightened almost into connip-
ton fits. The real theater audito-
RUINS is used as the auditorium in
the play, and the theater boxes as
the boxes In the play. Some of the
performers entered Mr.. J. z. Eng
glish's box and began a dialogue.
Then the curtain was struck and the
supposed performance began. A mob
scene resulted. Performers who had
come in the back way rushed down
the aisles whooping and brandishing
large sticks. and some of the audi
ence felt their hair rise with sudden
fear as they saw the men running
up behind them. II lasted but a mo-
ment, however. but that was
enough. Some of them didn't re-
cover their equanimity until they
had reached home, but everybody
united in then and there giving the
company a regular ovation. II was
the most unusual scene ever enacted
on the stage of the kentucky, and
was very realistic, especially as It
was wholly unexpected.
