TEST REBATE TO SHIPPERS
THROUGH PRIVATE LINE
OWNED BY SHIPPERS. T.
WILL BE PRESSED SPEEDILY
ATTORNEY GENERAL REGARDS
CASE OF GREAT GENERAL
IMPORTANCE.


General Moody yesterday made a
statement with regard to the petition
which will be filed by his direction to-
day in the circuit court of the United
States for the Eastern district of Wis
consin, brought under the Elkins law
test the legality of certain commits
sions alleged to have been paid by
railways (after the publication of the
regular rates) to a private car COM
pany, controlled by stockholders OF
the certain shipping freight in those
cars over the railway lines:
"The petition is against the Milwau-
kee Refrigerator Transit company,
Pere Marquette Railway company,
Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railway
company, Erie Railway company, Chi
cago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway
company, st. Louis & San Francisco
Railway company, Wisconsin Central
Railway company, Chicago & Alton
Railway company and Pabst Brewing
company.
After an Investigation.
"This case arises from the following
statement of facts, which have been
investigated by the interstate COM
MERGE commission and also by private
interests adversely affected, brought
to the attention of the attorney gen.
eral, and by him carefully considered.
1T appears that the Pabst Brewing
company is a large shipper of beer
hn
from Milwaukee. Some of the princi-
pal stockholders of that corporation
organized and own the Milwaukee Re-
frigerator Transit company, corpora
ton operating private cars. To the
latter corporation the
Control Of the Shipments
of the Pabst Brewing company was
given by an agreement entered into by
the two corporations named.
1.-THE various railroads mentioned
as defendants, while receiving as
freight money the open and published
rates, have paid to the transit COM
pany, in whose private cars the beer
was transported, a commission of
about ~ per cent upon the amount of
the freight money collected, with the
effect of course, that the net amount
received for transportation by the
railway companies is so much less
than the published and open rate.
Test Case.
"This petition is designed to test the
legality Of such payments, and is
brought under the provision of the
so-called Elkins law, which provides
that failure strictly to observe the
published rates shall be misdemean-
or, and further provides that it shall
be unlawful for any person. persons
or corporations to offer, grant or give
or to solicit, accept or receive any re-
bate, commission or concession or dis
elimination in respect to transporta-
ton of any property in interstate COM
merce, whereby any such property
shall be by any device whatever,
transported at a less rate than that
named in the tariffs published or
named by the carrier
1.-THE case is regarded of great gen.
eral Importance by the attorney gen.
eral and will be pressed to as speedy
hearing as just regard for the in
terests of the defendant will permit"

THE ACE
Of OAHU.
1t Foots Up Two or
Three Million
Years.

Rev Serene E. Bishop. ID, before
the Honolulu Teachers Association
last evening. delivered an extempore
address on the Mountains of Oahu, 4"
which was listened to with rapt in
terest. There is probably no man liv-
ing who has more direct and exact
knowledge of the topography and geol-
ogy of the Hawaiian Islands than DR.
Bishop. The theory he Iucidly and sue
clnctiy set forth on this occasion was
that Oahu originally consisted of one
vast dome like that of Mauna Loa on
Hawaii the active seat of all today's
living Hawaiian volcanoes. Time and
weathering or, in one word, erosion
had wrought the present picturesque
and diversified shapes of the noun
tains of this island. Two or three mil
lions of years, if not longer period,
the lecturer gave as the age of the is
land. The small craters, such as Dia-
mond Head and Punchbowl, were not
integral parts OF the original dome, but
mere pimples of tuf dating back

years

COUNTRY
CLUB IDEA
Favored at Meeting of
Manoa Golf
Club.

The Honolulu Country Club PROPOSE
ton was given a boost last evening
when the Manoa Golf Club adopted a
resolution to the effect that it favored
such an organization on the lines of
the prospectus WHICH has already been
published. Informally, the Manoa Club
also favored the report of the special
committee which has practically settled
Valley as the site of the proposed
club.
D. w. Anderson presided and W. W.
Thayer was secretary. Anderson re-
ported verbally on the Rookie PROPOSE
ton, and Mr.. Thayer reported in ex-
tense on the natural facilities which
the Rookie place offers for the estab-
lishment of a combined golf link
shooting range, cricket and tennis
grounds, swimming pool, etc. The
gentlemen stated that the prospectus
capitalization of $4,000, with power to
increase, divided into 400 shares of $25
each. The property could be rented at
s75 per month for a period of twenty
years. There would be considerable
original expense to convert the prop
erty into suitable links, ETC., largely
comprising clearing of the land, and
several thousand dollars would be re-
quired to build a clubhouse on tropical
lines, and to make other improve
ments. The rental was considered by
some to be too large.
AS yet no word has been received
from the Rookie heirs who reside in
England, but Mr.. Holmes, the local
legal representative, felt certain the
property could be leased On the above
terms.
Mr.. Hutchins reported that canvass
of the city showed a Willingness on the
part of all members of the Manoa
Golf Club to join the new organiza-
ton. and business men who are not
golfers, cricketerS or gunners had sub
scribed. Some had taken several shares
at $25 each. Mr.. Hutchins said there
would be no trouble raising funds to
start the PROJECT.
Mr.. Hutchins and Mr.. Thayer stated
that the tenure of the Manoa Golf
Club in its present location, which is
owned by H. E. Cooper, was short
lived. Mr.. Cooper had gradually taken.
over his lands, fenced them in and had
turned large number of horses on the
links for pasture. The greens were now
spoiled and it would be only a matter
of a few weeks before they were
ruined.
Those present at the meeting favored
the Country Club idea. and all seemed
DESTROYS of getting into permanent
quarters. The Country Club is looked
upon as a means of solving the social
outing question. With fine, COM
modious clubhouse, supplied with re-
ception hall broad lanais, kitchen and
private rooms, milady can entertain
on certain days of the month, and
there the hostesses may entertain to
the exclusion of all but the invited
ones.
The Manoa Club concluded its ses-
sion by electing officers for the ensuing
term as follows: President, Governor
Carter; vice-president, G. ]. Hutchins;
secretary. w. w. Thayer; treasurer, j.
o. Young; captain, DR.. c. B. High. The
treasurer reported 5000 on hand.
