COURT DECIDES
FOR RAILROADS
Reduced Rates TO Packers
May Be Made by the
Carriers.
BOARD CANNOT COMPEL A CUT
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
Powerless When II Comes to Equal
izIng Charges Between Similar Com
modities-Government May Appeal.

Chicago. Nov. 2l.--Judge Bethea
Monday announced a decision in the
live stock and packing house products
rate case, which admittedly Is an add
cd argument in favor OF increasing the
powers Of the interstate commerce
commission. although In this one case
Il Is a victory for the railroads.
The court declares that under the
Elkins law the commerce commission
is bound BY such limitations that II
cannot order a reduction OF rates on
one commodity 10 correspond with the
rates Of another commodity which
have been reduced by competition.
The third section OF the Elkins law
specifically provides that the interstate
commerce commission shall do moth.
ing to hamper competition. and tho
court finds that Il was the competition
for the business OF the packers. under
almost one control which caused the
railroads TO reduce the rates on pack
ing house products. whereas the busi-
ness OF the cattle shippers was In
many hands and therefore there was
not the same sharp competition for H.
The case is known to have been
watched closely IN Washington on ac-
count Of It's bearing on the whole rate
situation. and Il Is probable that II will
be appealed, although Attorney J.. A..
Shaver, representing the commission,
said he would have to consult Attorney
General Moody before reaching de-
eision. The railroad attorneys. OF
whom there were nine In the case,
while admitting TO some surprise at
the decision. declare that they are sat.
isiied that the highest courts will sus.
tain Il.
The suit was started last February
by the government at the instlgatIon
OF the commerce commission because
the railroads had refused TO obey the
commissions order To reduce the rate
on live stock between the Missouri.
river and Chicago.
Packers Get Cut Rates.
II was shown that the rate on pack.
ing house products had been reduced
several years ago after the Great
Western had entered into seyen-year
contract with the packers for a Ger.
tain percentage OF their tonnage at
rate lower than the former rate, which
was equal TO that on live stock. There
was no corresponding increase In the
cattle rates.

MAKING HousEwoRk MORE EASY
Better II Women Would Sit More al
Their Daily Tasks.


Their Daily Tasks.
Women don't sit enough 70 their
kitchen work" reclared the elderly
housewife. There's a heap OF Ills and
ailments that could be avoided by us
Ing Just a little common sense. Now,
no woman would think OF sewing or
darning while standing up. yet they do
equally foolish things In the kitchen.
Take peeling potatoes or other veg
etables, for instance. The majority OF
women stand near the sink for such
work. whereas they could do II equally
as well by sitting down. How many
do you see beating eggs while sitting
down? Precious few, I'll warrant.
They stand when mixing dough for
pastry or biscuits; after the dishes are
washed they stand up 10 dry them
when It's just as easy 10 sit down.
There's n hundred little things to be
done while preparing meals and which
are Just as easy 10 do while sitting as
standing. Then. when the days work
Is done. they flop into an easy chair
and wall about how tired they are.
There's n chair In nearly every kitchen
but It's mostly used for standing on
TO get things from the shelves. Sit
down more, tell you. and you won't
have that tired feeling so much"

BORES HOLES THROUGH
WALL OF NEIGHB0R'S ROOM

There is a lodger at the home of
Theodore Stein at 219 Pavilion place
whom the police designate as either a
crazy man or one of the cleverest
crooks outside of prison walls. He per-
sists in boring into the rooms adjoin-
ing his own, and what the object of
his labor is the detectives intend to
soon determine.
About two weeks ago stranger
went to STEMS home and engaged a
room, paying for the same in advance
and at a good price. He had been
there but day or two before the pro-
prietor discovered that his new lodger
was boring holes through the walls
and floor of the room he occupied and
into the apartments adjoining.
After watching for time and be-
coming acquainted with the fact that
the lodger had bored three holes di-
rectly under his bed. Stein reported the
case to the police. and Officer McLain
was sent to watch the place. The po-
liceman spent night Of vigil and
could discover nothing. so the affair
was put into the hands of Detectives
Davis, and Roberts. who are still in
Vestigating.

MAYORS VETO
Councilman From the First Ward
Says His Constituents Believe
Ordinance Should Go
Into Effect

II am in favor Of passing the public
utility ordinance as It stands over the
mayors veto" said Councilman Ford
yesterday, and continued, "unless the
suggestion as regards candle power and
heat units is an improvement in the
minds of the counclmen and we can
make the change and then pass the or
dinance.
"The ordinance, which is really three
ordinances, is of great importance and
should be in force as soon as possible
The regulation of telephone service and
the requirement that the electric light
companies shall furnish the proper
voltage Of electricity are of nearly
equal Importance with the gas problem,
"As far as / am concerned, and
base my opinion on what the people of
my ward have said to me personally
and in letters, believe the regulation
of corporations furnishing these public
utilities to the citizens of Los Ange-
les and the quality to be furnished are
the points of greatest importance in the
ordinance.
II intend to consult the people whom
represent and will base my vote on
what they want, for we are here to
give the people ,their rights, and pro-
tect their rights where they are being
infringed."
Gas is the great bug bear which is
bothering the nine councilmen at the
present time, and wherever they hide
the problem pursues and searches them
out. Every member of the citys leg
islative body is anxiously looking for
give the people their rights and be per-
fectly fair to all concerned
The question is considered of great
importance and the councilmen are
working on the problem in order, ac-
cording to one legislator to be able to
form an intelligent opinion of the sub
ject and be able to give the mayors
suggestions their proper weight.
Manager Taylor of the Los Angeles
Independent Gas company and Peo-
ple's Gas company said yesterday: II
think the ordinance as 1t stands or with
the changes in regard to candle power
and heat units as suggested by the
mayor is satisfactory to my company,
as we are trying to hold our gas to
about this quality at the present.
GAS regards the rendering of a state
ment Immediately I do not believe my
company would do this unless compell-
ed to, because we do not see the city's
right to go to a corporation any time
they feel like 1t and demanding such a
statement"

The Owl Drug Co. Explain How VinoI
Creates a Desire for Food

"vinol is the greatest aid to digestion
that we have ever known" said a
member of the Owl Drug Co.
1t contains all Of the active. medici-
nal-curative elements that are found In
cod liver oil, without any oil or grease.
These medicinal elements act so fav-
orably upon the stomach that this organ
obtains for itself the elements neces-
sary for creating new flesh, muscle tis-
sue, and for making rich, red blood.
when the stomach acts easily and
naturally, a desire is created for good.
simple food, and a good appetite is the
sure result.
with cod liver oil in its old form,
the medicinal elements which it con-
tanned were unable to do their best
work because Of the obnoxious oil
that enveloped them.
Now I'm Vinol we have those same
medicinal elements separated from the
vile-tasting oil, and we have a tonic
and rebuilder that is simply marvellous
i'm It's action.
I'VE want every one in Los Angeles
to know more about Vinol, how It
cures and what Il cures. Certainly
Vinol is the greatest tonic and rebuilder
we have ever sold.
Lack of appetite Is not itself dis
ease, but a symptom Of weakness show
ing itself In the nerves of the stomach,
which control the desire for food. We
guarantee Vinol will cure this weak
ness or give back your money" The
