RATE LAW
OMITTED
FROM CODE
Law Prohibiting Distrimina-
tiOn In Railroad Rates Not
in Cotton and BEL
linger'S Book

The incident in the supreme
court yesterday, showing an error
in Cotton and Bellinger's code OF
Oregon, calls to mind other errors
in the same book, one, at least, of
very grave and important signifi-
cance.
1t has been discovered that in Cot
tons code, the section of the gener-
al railroad laws of Oregon enacted
in 1885, prohibiting rate discrimina-
tion in long and short hauls is omit
! ted.
This omission has been known for
some time. and it is said that the
supreme court is cognizant of 1t.
1t is said that Judge Cotton's at
tention was called to it, and his ex-
PLANTATION of the matter was that 1t
was a clerical error. and that either
Mr.. Arthur c. Spencer or Mr.. Will
, SUI, CleIho III MS OhiOO al IhS 'ihic
the code was compiled, are respon-
sible for the omission. The omitted
section is as follows:
Section 1882 Hills Annotated
Laws of Oregon, I'd edition.:
"It shall be unlawful for any per-
son engaged in the transportation of
property as prescribed in section
1929 (to) charge or receive any
greater compensation for a similar
amount or kind of property for car
rying, receiving, storing, forward
ing or handling the same for short
er than longer distance in the same
direction"
Section 1929, referred to in the
omitted section. is a general section
prohibiting discrimination in rates.
Cotton and Bellinger's code was
compiled at considerable expense,
but these grave errors in the work
are placing the book in such a light
that it Is not of the same use 1t
would be If it was full and complete.
In the Cotton and Bellinger code,
the only reference 20 the omitted
section is in the table of compara-
tive sections, where opposite the
figures "40S2" is the single word,
omitted"
Another error was discovered in
the Cotton code. In the Declaration
of Independence, which is printed,
the opening paragraphs are so
mixed up as to be unintelligible.

The Familiar Gas Mantle.

IL is strange how, by almost an
accident, a new impetus was given Ia
the gas industry by the discovery OF
the mantle. DR.. Carl Auer Won
Welsbach was seeking new fila
ment for the electric bulb, which
would give more light than the fla
ment made from hair, cane or wire,
and TO this end was experimenting
with certain of the rare earths. DR..
Won Welsbach noticed that when
some of these earths came into con-
tact with the bluer flame of his stove
a very intense light appeared.
II then became a matter of a very
short time when he was able to dis
cover what chemicals had produced
this light. These he found to be
thorium and cerium, combined In n
proportion of 80 per cent OF the
thorlum and 1 per cent OF the
cerium. II the chemicals were made
plastic and nodded they were too
thick TO be heated sufficiently TO
emit an appreciable light. Then
came the clever part OF the inven-
tlon. as the following experiment
shows:
Take a little water and add COM
mon salt until no more salt can he
dissolved. In this solution soak
three or four pieces OF cotton thread
about twelve inches long. loosely
twisted together and knotted at each
end. After few moments remove
tho threads aud let them thoroughly
dry; then suspend then In a conven-
lent manner and tie trlhing weight

the threads. You can now burn out
all the original cotton II II Is perfect
ly dry by applying the fame OF an
alcohol lamp or "A wax taper at the
top, and the salt crystals remaining
will have sufficient cohesive power to
support the ring.
In manner precisely similar 10
this Is the gas mantle made, by sub
stltutlng tho thorlum-cerium COM
pound for the table salt and the
woven webbing for the strands of
thread. The cotton Is impregnated
with the salts OF the rare earths,
thorium aud cerium. This lmpreg-
nation having been completed. the
webbing Is thoroughly dried and
then cut into requisite lengths, and
one end doubled In and plated and
sewed with thread made from asbes-
tos In such a manner as to form the
loop at the top OF the mantle.

 Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 16,-President Roosevelt had somewhat of 0 cabinet meeting at sagamore Hill to-day. Sec retary Taft and Acting Secretary of State Bacon reached Oyster Bay on the morning train. The business they brought occupied the time fully until luncheon was served. At luncheon E. w.

Bing- ham, police commissioner of New York, and F. P. Dunne (Mr. Dooley).
 Secretary Taft, MT. Whitridge and General Bingham went back to New York on the afternoon train and Seere- tary Bacon and MT. Dunne went to Westbury in the automobile of the sec retary, which had run over from his summer home at that place this morn ling. Mir. Bacon returned to Washing ton tonight. Secretary Taft is on his way to Canada for an extended vaca- tion.
 The important features of the day in- cluded thorough discussion of the peace situation between Guatemala, Salvador and Honduras, MT. Bacon goes back to Washington with full in- structions as to the presidents desires in this matter, and the negotiations will be hastened, if possible. that conclu- sions may be reached before the session of the Pan-American conference at Rio Janeiro The one new feature in the situation is the expressed desire of Hon. duras to be participant in the negoti- ations.

 of Her SOn-in-Iaw.
 New York July 16.-Immediately sol- lowing her first interview with her son Harry K. Thaw, in the Tombs to-day since her return from Europe On satur- day, Mrs. William Thaw assumed full charge of the defence and arranged to retain the services as counsel of the firm of Black, Olcott, Gruber and Bonynge, who were dismissed rby young ThaW few days ago. This action is taken to mean that Harry Thaw's de- sires and opinions regarding the de- fence will be ignored and that reliance will be placed on the pea of insanity insistance on which by MT. Oacott re- suited in the rupture between himself and his client. Whether an application will be made for the appointment of q committee on lunacy to determine young Thaw's mental condition will probably be determined at a confer ence to be held between Mrs. Thaw and the counsel tomorrow
 The meeting of Mrs. Thaw and her son at the Tombs was a most affecting one. After the first greeting they were left alone together to converse through the bars of the cell for half an hour During the interview the pris- oner's wife stood in silence in the cor ridor few feet away from the cell door awaiting her turn to speak with her husband. No words were exchang- ed between Mrs. Thaw and her daugh- ter-inlaw,
 From the Tombs Mrs, Thaw was driven directly to the office of Lewis I, Delafeld, where after consultations ar engagements were made for former Judge Olcott's firm to resume charge of the case When note was sent ta Harry Thaw this afternoon asking whether he concurred in the new ar rangement the reply was returned that MT Thaw had nothing to say"
