At the very beginning Of the investi-
cation into the Standard Oil and the
Santa Fe railroad, it was discovered
that that road had paid to Rockefeller
last year 81 1882 cash in the way of
rebates on oil. 1t appears on the books
of the road as oyercharges returned.
What a beautiful set of agents the
Santa Fe must have to make over
charges against one firm in a single
year of over a million dollars. The
Santa Fe, Rockefeller and Paul Morton
of Roosevelts cabinet are all mixed up

Boutwell,, driven by his Jeffersonian
principles, was one of the chief actors
in the foundation and organization OF

q state of worry and excitement for

The senate was so busy preventing
any legislation disapproved of by the
railroads or the trusts that it had no
time to pass the little bill giving the
people of Alaska delegate in congress.
AS soon as the news reached Alaska,
mass meetings were held and a tele-
gram was sent to the president asking !
him to have Alaska annexed to Canada.
The Alaskans say that the natives of
Hawaii and the Spaniards of Porto
Rico can have a delegate In congress,
hut the 10000 Americans in Alaska can
uot, therefore they had better be taken
In by Canada, where they would have
the same share in government as all
other British subjects.

There is a queer state OF affairs in
the editorial rooms of the Chicago
Tribune. The managing editor was in
favor of granting more street car fran
chises, but the associate editor, JOS
eph Medill Patterson, who Is also
large owner of the stock of the Trib-
une, believed in city ownership and
the sooner it was obtained the better.
The result OF the disagreement was
that Patterson resigned his position as
associate editor during the city cam
paign and has gone out to take the field
for Judge Dunno, the democratic nom
inee for mayor, while the Tribune sup
ports Harlan, the republican nominee.

IN FIFTEEN DAYS
THE PRESIDENT, DESIRES RATe
RULING TO GO INTO EFFECT
Senator Foraker's Bill Provides the
Finding In Each Case Reported
to the Attorney General.


Washington, Nov. 22.-Indications
strongly point to the fact that the
battle over railroad rate regulation
will finally be fought and won largely
on the single question OF providing
the method by which the findings OF
the interstate commerce commission
shall be made effective. The president
and the commission desire the ruling
against an unreasonable rate to go In
to effect fifteen or twenty days after
being rendered, the right of appeal to
the courts being given the railroads.
1t is learned that Senator Foraber's
bill, which he will soon Drfng be-
fore the committee desires the inter
state commerce commission to report
Its finding In each case to the attor-
ney general. who Is insti ,-Jted to d.
rect the federal district attorney In
the particular locality interested to
bring action In the district courts.
1t further provides for an immediate
hearing Of the case by that court.
Strong representations are being
made to the president by railroad and
political interests, explaining that II
he modifies his ideas sufficiently to
meet the railroads upon this one
point that a satisfactory agreement
may be speedily reached and a meas
ure put through congress without
much delay.
1t Is known that the president has
been told that there are radical diff
fcrences within the party on railroad
rate regulation, and i"at he would DO
securing what he de- red II he parity
met the friends of the railroads on
the point in which they were most par.
tlcularly interested.
Chairman Elkins of the senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce, In ar
interview tonight declared that he he
lieved the members of his committee
would finally compromise their DIFF
ferences. He said, however that he
committee would report a rate bill to
the senate before the Christmas holi-
days.
At this afternoons session of the
committee Senator Cullom of Illinois
outlined his views. He said he stood
In exact line with the president in ia
yor of law giving to the interstate
commerce commission the power to
fix freight rate where after com.
plant and hearing it had been fouD
to be unreasonable. He urged expedi-
ton in the deliberations of the COM
mittee. He explained that he did

He was open to conviction as to GER

position that the Interstate COM

greater powers.
