President Hill Talks on Federal Rate
REGULATION.

Portland, Ore, Oct. president J.
J. Hill OF the Great Northern railroal
was the principal speaker at a ban
Quet rendered by the Lewis and Clark
exposition TO Mr.. Hill and President
Howard Elliott of the Northern Pa.
cilc. President Hill said:
Notwithstanding the average rate
paid by the people of the United
States is only about 40 per cent of
that Of Russia we have a great many
people who are preaching a doctrine
for the regulation of railroad rates by
federal authority.
ut has been announced in an Off
cial that there has been no
reduction of rates in the United
States for twenty-five years; that tar
lifts have been reduced at times, but
that whenever a tariff was reduced
the classification was given another
turn OF the wheel and advanced so at
least to offset the reduction in the
tariff.
The man who made that state
ment did not tell the truth. The re-
duction in the average rate per ton
per mile in twenty-five years, on the
Great Northern railway aggregates
$685. 600 900. That has been the re-
duction that the people have gotten on
one railroad.
81 am not afraid that any federal
regulation will ever get down deep
enough to touch us where we live be-
cause long before they do the country
will be strewn with railroad corpges.
1t would bankrupt two-thirds of the
mileage in the United States"

LONG FIGHT IN PROSPECT.
No Developments in Strike Of Twi'
CITY Printers.

7Ia|E Il. LH 4.
st. Paul, Oct. 4.-The job printers
strike in the Twin Cities is devoid of
developments. No union men nave
gone back to work and the Typothe-
tae, the employers organization, is
standing firm against the eight-hour
day.
Except at union headquarters there
are no congregations OF the strikers
and the citizens can see no evidence
of the keen labor struggle that is be-
ing fought.
Neither; the leaders of the employ
ers or the men look for speedy de-
velopments. Each side realizes that
the contest is to the finish and each
has long prepared for a %protracted test
Of strength.

RANSOM RAISED TO $4,000.

Brooklyn Contractor.


New York, Oct. 4.-Michael Mare
aneina, the Italian contractor OF
Brooklyn, whose little son Tony was
kidnapped last week and held for a
ransom of $500, has received a letter
from a ''secret society," raising the
ransom to $4,000 and threatening to
kill the boy by a certain time if the
price was not paid.
The police are mystified by the con-
duct of the father. Salvatore Picona
of Brooklyn has been arrested on sus-
picion of knowing where the boy is.
When Picona was arraigned in court
1t was announced that the boys father
would give bail for the man under
suspicion. Picona was released on
bail.

Filtered Water for Washington.

The first filtered water entered the
mains of Washington yesterday from the
S4, 500, 900 municipal filtration plant at
the head of North Capitol street. The
process Of starting the operation Of the
plant was begun last Tuesday, but that
involved merely the turning of the
water into the first of 90 filtration beds,
each having a capacity of 1900, 600 gal
Ions.
The water from but one bed was turn
ed into the District distributing system
yesterday, but the expectation is that
the other beds will be available for use
at the rate of at least one every other
day until the number necessary TO turn
out pure water to the amount Of the
present consumption in the District is
complete.
The average daily consumption in the
District of Columbia now is 63, 900, 600
gallons per day, but the flow from each
of the beds may be increased so as to
meet any unusual demand. Twenty-one
of the filtration beds are practically COM
pleted, while the eight others are in
course of construction.

Another Internal Machine

Gun cotton enough to kill man ar
ranged in an internal machine and dis
guised as a gilt cigar box was received
yesterday by Precinct Police Captain
Miles o. Reilly, in New York. This is
the third deadly explosive instrument OF
similar construction seat through New
York mails in the last four days, the
other two having been received by Jacob
II. Schiff, the banker, and NJ. Guggen-
helms Sons.
Captain 0Reilly received cigar box
which in weight and every other detail
misled him into taking it for genuine
present. Unusually heavy nails fss-
tening down the cover, however, caused
n suspicion. When the box had been
carefully opened at the ends matches
were found glued to its inner surface in
such manner that they would be ig-
nited on emery paper by the friction nee
essary to raise tie lid. The police found
that the flare Of one of The half dozen
matches might bave caused the death OF
Captain o O'Reilly.
A detective carried n tiny portion OF
the gun cotton and powder, which near
ly flied the box, into the cellar and
there touched match to it. The re-
sulting explosion was heard on the upper
floors of the police station.
A valuable clue to the men who sent
the deadly internal machines to Jacob
A. Schiff and Guggenheim's Sons was
found Yesterday afternoon when letter
foretelliDg an attempt to assassinate rich
Jews there was brought TO light
This letter, breathing throughouta ha-
tired ofthe wealthy, was received by Philip
Cowen, Publisher Of the AmericsnHebrew,
last April. He read it hurriedly, saw
that it was probably the work Of crank
and promptly turned it over TO Police
Commissioner McAdoo.
Since that time it has remained in the
latter's Office. 1t was not until yesterday
that Mr.. Coweu, comparing the threats
the note conta,red with the actual send
ing OF the bombs, saw connection be-
tween the information given by the an
archists and the first move in either cam
paign.
The envelope bore the postmark of
Station B, The uOte April II, and in
formed its recipient that the writers, two
Russians and one American, had resol-
we'd to wage a war against the rich Jews
in New York because Of their influence
and their wealth.
As for Cowen, he was warned to take
care of himself. No harm was to come
to him, the letter declared, but he could
not he too careful.
At the bottom were the three sigma
lures, all of which were hard to decipher.
"At the time" said Mr.. Cowen, 81
paid little attention to the remarkable
missive, anarchistic as it was. In fact,
it had well-nigh slipped my mind when
the sending of the bombs last week set
me to thinking"

p. \. Mi!ukof, professor of Russian
history in the University olSt Petersburg
Prof T. n. Denissevitch, and many
others, all identified with the reform
movement, we're arrested at their re-
spective residences Sunday night by the
political police and arc now in prison.
Altogether there we're II political arrests
Sunday night, mostly Of professors, adj
yocates, physicians and architects. The
reason given by the department OF police
for the arrests is that the prisoners were
arranging for a meeting to condemn the
imperial manifesto. Their contention Is
that they we're simply planning to con-
tinue the reform campaign. The arrests
have created a sensation in st. Peters
burg.
1t is rumored that there will be gen
eral strike of railway men throughout
Russia soon. A general strike has been
proclaimed throughout Poland as pro-
test against the disregard of the rights of
the Poles in the scheme for representa-.
ton in the national assembly. The
strike began at Warsaw yesterday. En-
ployes of the Vistula Railway quit work
and many trains were left standing at in
termediate stations.
Eighty socialists, carrying arms, while
attempting to enter Warsaw, were op-
posed by a detachment Of Cossacks.
Eight of the socialists were killed and
the others arrested.
Employees of factories at Warsaw, LODI
AID Pobiance have joined the strike. Be-
sides the Ystula Railway, the Terespol
line and the light railways have been
compelled to suspend service.
