INTERSTATE COMMISSION
FIGHTS PRIVATE CAR LINES

Washington, oct. l?-What promises to
extend into a legal ard legislative battle
against private car ines was precipitated
by tho Interstate Commerce commission
by the course taken yesterday az the be-
ginning Of tho hearing instituted TO show
the connection lsetwecu refrigerator car
lines and railroads.
Counsel for tho commission directed
every effort to bring out the fact that
great railroad systems operating their
own refrigerator car lines give to the
shippers 4 much lower rate FOR rcfrig"ra-
ton than Is obtained on roads that are
compelled to operate in connection with
private car lines.
In this the railroads. notably the Illinois
Central. and tho Pennsylvania, through
their traffic freight managers. who were
on the stand the greater part Of tho DAY,
apparently aided tho commission.
The action Of the commission IN. ni-
tiating and prosecuting tho complaints
has the double purpose ~ establishing It's
jurisdiction over private car uues and cor
roofing the evils complained Of
r. y Bowles, freight tranic manager of
the Illinois central Railroad. testified that
his railroad operates PASS refrigerator cars
and had no agreement with private car
lines FOR additional cars. lie said
"Wc receive "a per diem charge OF ~
cents a car when our cars arc used ON
other lines. the same as We receive foi
stock or box cars.
Mr.. Bowlcs then filed n statement TO
show hat the Illinois Central Railroad
refrigerator ears average about % miles
"A day, and II paid for on tho mileage
basis. as are private cars. the receipts per
car would be about . cents.
g. II. Dixon. freight trafic manage for
the Pennsylvania. said that his road has
no connection with the Armour or any
other private line. but pays thrce-quaf-
tiers OF u cent "a mile FOR the Use OF re-
frigcrator cars.
Mr.. Dixon testified that the Pennsyl-
vania railroad owns 800 refrigerator cars
and supplies them 60 shippers at a less
rate than shippers are compelled to pay
for private cars.
The hearing will be continued today

RULERS OF Two GREAT NA1iONS.

Somebody wants TO know how King
Edwards work compares with that Of
President Roosevelt and what Vic.
toria's son really stands for in Great
Britain. There can be no comparison
between the two rulers President
Roosevelt really rules. He has all the
power commonly accredited To mon.
arch, and he can do scores Of things
that no king would ever dream of do.
ing. King Edward sustans heavy
load Of dignity and draws "A stipend
from the public treasury that is meas
ured in seven figures, that is about all.
He Is the social head of his country.
He makes precedent. He is fashion
itself. The things that the king does
are good torn and are really the laws
~ society and are aped by the people.
II Is odd how well loved is this man
who plays such n small part in the
affairs Of government. London has
100000 Of starving poor. Most OF
them are starving because opportunity
has been denied them, And they lay
their hands on their empty stomachS.
while they cry, God save the king"
Mighty hordes Of the unemployed
march the streets Of the greatest city
Of the world and again the cry is
heard, God save the king" You see
rich and poor really love this monarch
Time was when the rubbIc would
have stormcd a castle ana shortened
the king by head, but that was In an
age when a king was indeed king
ana the common people were dogs.
Now, your EnGlishman, whether high
or low. may curse parliament ana the

the tax burdens but he will never miss
an opportunity to get down on his
marrowboncs to the first gentleman Of

ness In this direction. They have done
good work and are keeping II up.
Chief Collins has made good begin.
ming and. Judging by the following
statement. made Immediately Oh TAX.

ent Of police. he. too. has evidently
started in on the crusade against vice

Everybody knows that Chicago has

We shall try to keep record OF

make their reports direct to Schuettler.

Gambling In this town has been 4
disgrace. We have handhooks, poker

With such officials. possessing the

PUBLIC ADMINISTRATOR REDDiCx.

Governor Deneen could not have
made n better or more popular selec-
ton for the office OF public admins
traitor than James Reddick, the well.
known ana respected citizen. able Of.
fetal and faithful and successful Re.
publican leader.
While there has been some flavor
Of political fractional gossip inject.
ed into the discussion of this appoint.
ment, opinion in the press ana outside
of II has been unanimous that n bet
ter selection could not he made by
the Governor. Mr.. Reddick has all the
qualifications necessary to worthily I'LL
this highly important Office. He Is II
man of affairs, honest, upright and
faithful to duty. He has filled posi-
tons Of trust In the past. and he has
done It well and to the complete sat.
isfactlon Of the public.
Mr.. Reddick, in discussing the prob
ability Of his appointment Il few days
ago had this to say In relation to an
Important feature OF the conduct Of
the Office In question:
In view Of criticisms made against
the sixty-day clause of the law relat.
ing TO the Office, l intended TO make
a public statement in the event was
appointed public administrator. In
the event Of my appointment I pledge
myself to waive absolutely any right
Of fees l may have under the sixty
day clause, think 1t only fair to
myself and the public to say that it Is
my understanding that the new law
does not differ from the courts rulings
on the old law"
This statement is in itself guaran-
tee that under Mr.. Reddick's direction
the office OF public administrator will
he honestly and legally administered.
The public Is interested In the ap-
pointment of first-class and depend
able man To this office, and the unanl-
nous sentiment i that in James Red
dick the Governor has picked ont the
man who tiliS all the requirements.
