They were by nature unfair, though their
unfairness in some instances was source

Continuing, she said that experience showed,

to Arizona and finally to New Mexico
with headquarters at Santa Fe.
Tn 1884 the regiment was again
ordered to Arizona where it remained
until 1890, when it was transferred to
the department Of the Columbia with
headquarters at Walla Walla, Wash

After most pleasant tour of duty,

PULLS LITTLE JOKER,
The Baron Indicates He Holds Over
Whatever Mayor Dunno Has.

LONDON, Aug. 25.-Through Chas.
T. Yerkes comes a statement that
amounts to a threat, that not only the
municipal ownership of the street rail-
ways of Chicago, but the final settle
ment Of the internal troubles of the
Union Traction system depend entire
ly on what the bondholders of that
system may or may not do.
The statement is that if Chicago is
going to buy the Union Traction COM
pany lines it must deal with the bond
holders and not with the share
holders.
The opinion is expressed that what
ever happens to the municipal owner
ship plans of Mayor Dunno, ultimately
the bondholders will foreclose on their
mortgages and take the properties in
their own hands.
In other words, the stocks of the
Union Traction, and it's underlying
companies as we'll, may nave to be
wiped out.
Mr.. Yerkes is himself the owner of
$6,750,000 of bonds of the consolidated
companies, which are guaranteed by
the Union Traction company, and he
naturally has a large personal interest
in the matter. He says that under
the laws of Illinois the city of Chicago
has every power to condemn the rail-
ways, take charge of the management.
There is no law in existence, however,
which can compel the holders of the
mortgage bonds of these roads to ac-
cept less than their real value and
should the city of Chicago endeavor to
take the roads without settling with
the bondholders the usual receivership
proceedings would follow. The courts
have always upheld the rights of
mortgage bondnolders.

DEMAND OF COLFAX FOR CHEAP
FUEL TARIFF ON RAIL-
ROADS THE ISSUE.
Commission Will Make Effort to Force
O. r. e. N. and N. p. to Es-
tabish Joint Rate.

On the application of, the citizens Of
Colfax, the state railroad commission
of Washington will make a test case
in the effort to compel the Northern
Pacific Railway company and the Ore
gon Railway & Navigation company
to establish a joint rate on coal from
Roslyn to Colfax.
The distance from Roslyn to COlfax
is less than $50 miles, and on coal. the
Northern Pacific gets the haul from
the mines at Roslyn to Wallula, while
the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company gets the haul the remainder
of the distance. Coal at the mines
cost s1.75 a ton, and when Roslyn
coal was shipped under the joint rate
it could be bought in Colfax for $5.25
a ton, the two roads dividing the tariff,
each taking $1.75.
The o. r. e. N. Not Satisfied.
The Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company was not satisfied with the
short haul and the joint rate was de-
clared off, after which the Hartman
line shipped coal into Colfax from
Rock Springs, a distance of several
hundred miles, and the consumers
were compelled to pay for the long
haul, their coal costing them 1925 a
ton.
1t is said the railroad companies
deny the authority of the commission
to establish joint rates, but the men,
bers have discussed the matter with
commissioners from other states and
are advised to make the fight.
