among the states, and, secondly that
in SO doing it should never prefer the
ports of one state over those of an
other.
Now, if the commission in order 10
avoid destroying commerce would make
an equal rate on the shipment of cotton
from Galveston to New York. from Sa-
yannah to New York and from New
Orleans, Mobile and Pensacola to New
York, each Of those points at different
distances, and each being a port of

ed to Savannah. New Orleans and the

What Rate Power Means.
II the power to make rates is con-
ferred upon the interstate commerce
commission that body will be immedi-
ately confronted with the responsibility
of making rates to and from every port
in the United States. If it make a rate
to or from Philadelphia it must not give
any preference to that port over Balti-
more or any of the numerous ports on
the Atlantic seaboard in other states
than Pennsylvania.
The interstate commerce commits
sion insisting that the preference
clause of the constitution is not ap-
plicable, boldly takes the logical step
of asking that they be permitted in
making rates TO establish diferentials,
and that they be trusted by this great
commercial nation with the power to
preserve harmony between all the
ports and commercial centers of the
United States. If the interstate COM
merce commission were gifted with
superhuman knowledge and super
human sense of justice and fair deal
ing they could not do what they are
asking congress to permit them to do.

FOR AN OIL PIPE LINE.
Formal Application to Use County
Highways Is Made.

Application was made to the board
of county commissioners this morning
by ". F. Rightmire, representing the
Uncle Sam Refinery company Of Cher
ryvaIe, for permission to lay a pipe
line along the county highways and
over the county bridges.
It is proposed that the pipe line
shall enter Shawnee county near the
second section line west of the east
ern border of the county. This Is the
same section that the refinery at
Cherryvale is located upon. The pur-
pose of the refinery company, as out
lined by Judge Rightmire. is to pump
crude or refined oil to Topeka. He
says a pumping station viii be built
, or Is miles from Topeka.
Judge Rightmire asks the consent
of the board of commissioners with
the understanding thaI the company
viii lay pipe not over six inches in
diameter and that it will be sunk uu-
der all roadways and that the consent
Of the owners Of the abutting prop
erty will be secured before the pipe is
laid. He proposes to lay the pipe line
close to the fences along the high
ways.

REFUSED TO REPLY.
Nan Patterson's Sister Declines to
Answer Questions.

New York, April 28.-The story told
by Mrs. ]. Morgan Smith on the wit
ness stand yesterday afternoon and
the prospect of her cross examination
by counsel for the defense today
served to intensity interest in the case
of Nan Patterson who is now on trial
in the court of general sessions.
charged with the murder of Caesar
Young. The appearance of Mrs. Smith
as a witness for the prosecution came
in the nature of a surprise to the de-
fense, Levy has said.
In the course of his examination
Mr.. Rand asked Mrs. Smith if she
had possessed all the infOrma ton she
had testified to in this trial all the
time since she left New York last
June. Mrs. Smith replied that she
would like to answer the question, but
feared it would tend to degrade ana
incriminate her as she is under indict-
ment for conspiracy.
The prosecutor then promised that
if she would answer he would move
next Monday to quash the Indictment
against her, but she declined to do so
until she had an opportunity to con-
suit her counsel.
Sticks to Her Sister.
After she had consulted with her
counsel Mrs. Smith declined 60 an
SWer the question.
Mrs Smith testified yesterday that
Miss Patterson had expected Caesar
Young to get a divorce from his wife
and marry her. She, herself believed
that Young intended eventually 10
marry her sister until last May when
Leslie Coggins told her that Young
did not intend to carry out the agree
ment. Miss Patterson became greatly
excited when Coggins' statement was
repeated to her, Mrs. Smith said.
Mr. Rand offered the intercepted
letter which Mrs Smith sent to Young
which was ruled out yesterday and
again it was rejected by Recorder
Goff.
Weep in Each Others Arms.
The ordeal in the court room today
proved almost too much for Nan Pat
terson. The resolute manner in which
Mrs Smith refused to answer questions
put to her by the prosecuting attorney
and her declaration that she would
stand by her sister affected the prisoner
deeply and she was near a breakdown
when the luncheon adjournment was
announced. Mrs. Smith appeared % be
unstrung as a result of her experience
as well and the two women spent the
recess in their cells in the tombs Weep
ing in each others arms.
The prosecution rested its case this
afternoon.

HIS SIDE AFFECTED.
Had Been North in Interest Of
jamestown Exposition.
Addressed the Legislature of
Massachusetts, Yesterday.

Washington April 2s.-Major General
Fitzhugh Lee, u. S. A, retired. was
stricken with apoplexy, the entire left
side being affected, at o'clock this
morning. General Lee was on a train
en- route from Boston to Washington. The
train had just left Harlem River when
the stroke came. The train bearing the
general arrived in Washington shortly
after 10 o'clock. Under direction OF
Major Kean. Z. S. A., of the surgeon
generals Office, the patient was remov-
ed to Providence hospital.
The news of the generals condition
had preceded him to Washington and
many Of his army and personal friends
were at the Pennsylvania station to
meet Included among them were Ma
jor Niche. Of the army generals Staff
Major Kean and Major Mason, of the
medical department; DR.. st. George
Tucker, of George Washington univer-
sity; Major Robert Hunter of Virginia:
Holmes Conrad OF Virginia and B. H.
Fowle. DR.. Tucker invited General Lee
to occupy quarters at his residence here.
The general was conscious and received
DR.. Tucker in the car when the invita-
tion was extended. He replied smiling
ly: Il am in charge of this man Kean.
and he says must go to the hospital
and 1 guess I will have to acquiesce.S
Mrs. Lee, who is at Ft. Oglethorpe,
Ga, with her daughter, has been noti-
fed as also has been the son, George,
who is in San Francisco, preparing to
sail for the Philippines. The other son
who is in the Philippines has been noti-
fed of his fathers condition. A ply
sician was taken aboard the train at
Jersey City. At Philadelphia he gave
place to another, who accompanied the
general to Baltimore, where still another
was taken aboard and made the trip to
Washington. Since the first stroke no
change for the worse has taken place.
General Lee had been spending a few
days in Boston and was returning to
washington on his way to join Mrs. Lee.
Major Kean of the medical corps of
the army announced this afternoon on
leaving the bedside of General Lee
that there was no apparent change in
his condition; that the general is con-
scious, but it viii be impossible to tell
what the outcome is to be for several
hours. The entire left side is par
alyzed.

a state building at Jamestown. He
left here last. evening apparently in his
usual health.
