WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The
cotton-carrying railroads operating
east of the Mississippi river and
south of the Potomac and Ohio
rivers have won in their recent hear
ing before the interstate commerce
commission. The following order
was issued late in the afternoon by
the commission:
That no published rates on cot
ton shall be advanced except upon
thirty days notice, as required by
law.
That from and after this date
and until March /, 1907, carriers
may reduce their published export
rates on cotton to various ports or
exports upon three days notice.
That until November /, 1906,
carriers may continue to equalize
export cotton rates through the va
ious ports by apply the lowest COM
bination through all the ports, there
by making said rates without pub
hcation and filling, as required by
law, provided that they post in two
CONSPICUOUS places in the station
where cotton is received for ship
ment notices of the rates so made
as soon as they are made, and mail
copies of the same to the commits
sion; notices to specify the rate and
the time during which the rate will
continue in effect =

Why Railways Plant Trees.

Not from a philanthropic impulse
to make two trees grow where only
one grew before, but because they
are fearful of their supply of ties in
future, are the big railways of this
country planting trees along their
right of way, and even buying large
tracts of land solely for the pur-
pose of preserving or raising trees.
During the last year the steam rail
roads of this country used $4,000, 600
ties, equivalent to 5000, 900, 600 feet
of lumber, according to statistics
compiled by the department of agri-
culture, after a thorough inquiry.
In addition to wood used by the steam
railroads for ties is an immense
amount used by electric railroads,
particularly interurban lines.
To supply ties for steam roads alone
300, 600 acres of woodland are denuded
annually. With the steadily increas-
ing demand and decreasing supply of
lumber for all other purposes, it is
apparent why the railroads are plant
ing trees in large quantities. An Off
cial of the Pennsylvania system esti-
mates that to supply its future needs
will necessitate the planting of 1,000,
600 trees each year, a forest of 49,
900, 600 in all, and the permanent oc-
cupation of I52 square miles of land,
allowing 400 trees to the acre and 30
years for the growth of the trees to
the required size.
Numerous experiments have been
made by railroads with various sub
stitutes for wooden ties, but none has
proved successful. Every road of i'm
portance is taking means today to
lengthen the life of ties by treating
them with chemicals to prevent de-
cay. CreOsote is the chief chemical
used and the cost of it is only frac-
ton of the amount saved by the long
er service of the ties treated with it.
Great care is being used now in
laying ties, having them a uniform
distance apart, as far as is pos
sible with safety in view of the heavy
equipment used and the amount of
traffic.
Nevertheless, the supply of ties
grows less and the cost of ties in
creases every year aud the prospect
worries all railroad managers Chi

Two remarkable facts are to be
noted in connection with the turn
ing over of the Pennsylvania capitol
to the authorities the other day.
One is that the building was COM
pleted ahead of time, and the other
is that Of the 81, 900, 900 appropria-
ton there remained an unexpended
balance, of $40, 900 That there
should have been a balance unex-
pended is a matter of much wonder.

Fred w. Milverton, Esq. Deputy At

Dear Sir:-In answer to your COM
munication numbered d lis. under date
of the 10th inst, beg to say that while
/ have a natural prejudice against the
execution of criminals, still I believe
that this punishment is one of the best
safeguards which we have in lettering
persons from committing crime. / have
carefully considered the question which
you submit to me, which is whether |
have any facts to present which would
warrant interference of the executive
in reduction of the sentence, and must
reply in the negative. AS counsel for
the defendants. assigned by the court
to represent them upon an Indictment
found, I examined into the facts and
details of the case and must confess
that in all of the experience which l
have had, directly and indirectly, with
criminal law, | have never known of a
case in which the death penalty was
more fitting punishment for the crime
of homicide. Each of the defendants
plainly stated to me that what he did
was cCQe with the most absolute de-
being affected neither by
frenzy OF any description, nor lnLoxlcd-
ton. Each defendant explained to me
that he was we'll aware of the unlaw
fulness of their assault and homicide
and that the law of the country from
which they came is Identical with the
law of this country. Each man seems
to be possessed of a normal mind and
of sufficient intelligence to enable him
to carry on the work of a laborer in his
station Of life. So far as the law is
the homicide was committed
with the most undeniable premedita-
ton and neither from the standpoint of
legal ethics or from any normal senti- |
ment does any reason occur to me why |
here should be any executive interfer- |
ance in this matter.
Every truly yours,

Two portuguese engaged in a fierce
fight last night about $50 at the corner
Of kawaiahao lane and Queen street
and one was SO badly hurt that he was
taken to the Queens Hospital.
Vierra and Mariana have been at outs
for some time. although once they were
bosom friends Recently they have
had little tiffs and it is said that Mari
ano had chased vierra with the intent
TO do him bodily harm.
Last night Mariana started fight
with Vferra and used a butcher knife
on him. He made deep cash on the
other mans forehead and one in the
back of the neck. causing considerable
loss of blood. The worst of the fight
was seen by a night-watchman who
was passing and he no ified the police.
Mariana was he'd by tee night-watch-
man and turned over 10 the officers.
Vierra was quite weak from his wounds
on being taken to the hospital, but

THE BRIGHT SIDE

of life 1t is a feeling common
to the majority of us that we
do not get quite the amount of
happiness we are entitled to.
Among the countless things
which tend to make us more or
less miserable i'll health takes
first place. Hannah More said
that sin was generally to be at
tributed to biliousness. No doubt
a crippled liver with the result
ing impure blood, is the cause of
more mental gloom than any
other single thing. And who
can reckon up the fearful aggre-
gate of pain, loss and fear a.
rising from the many diseases
which are familiar to mankind;
like a vast cloud it hangs over
a multitude no one can number.
You can see these people every
where. For them life can scarce
~ be said to have any "bright
side" at all. Hence the eager
ness with which they search for
relief and cure. Remedies like
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
have not attained their high po-
sition in the confidence of the
people by bald assertions and
Boosting advertisements. They
are obliged to win it by doing
actually what is claimed for them.
That this remedy deserves its
reputation is conceded. It is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative prof.
critics of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
combined with the Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites, Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
Nothing has such a record Of
success in Scrofula, Influenza,
Throat and Lung Troubles, and
emaciating complaints and dis
orders that tend to undermine
the foundations Of strength and
vigour. It's use helps to show
life's brighter side. Professor
Reddy, of Canada, says: 81 have
much pleasure in stating that /
have used it in cases of debility
and found it to be a very valu-
able remedy as well as pleasing
to take. You cannot be. disap-
pointed in it. Sold by chemists.

Wholesalers Approve
Saloon Closing.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 18.-Chief
United States Internal Revenue Col
lector John c. Lynch was asked yes
terday as to the effect upon internal
revenue business and the liquor trade
of the action of the city authorities
in preventing the sale of intoxicants
here.
Mr.. Fowler replied that a sufficient
length of time had not yet elapsed to
show the effects OF the Mayors order
upon internal revenue business, but
there could be no doubt as to The ef-
and distilleries of this peninsula. Lo-
cal breweries have lost heavily, not
only by the fire, which destroyed much
cooperage, but in business, while brew
cries in the interior have profited cor
respondingly.
San Francisco was a heavy exporter
of beer for interior towns, but the fire
having destroyed the largest breweries
in the city and crippled many more,
this trade is lost for the present at
least. The demand is being supplied
by the local interior establishments
and those ut Seattle and Tacoma, but
on the other hand those of the last
named cities have lost big trad
which they possessed in San Fran
cisco previous to the fire.
The whisky rectifiers are also heavy
losers, for the fire destroyed the bulk
of the spirits and the chemicals out OF
which they manufactured a strong
drink called by courtesy whisky, and
Eastern rectifiers have come into the
field and are beginning to supply the
Coast with rectified goods" They are
also making strenuous efforts to gain
Gen manently the trade that was once
San EIancisco's.

Whereas, The municipal departments
of this city will require for some time
to come large sums of money which
must be raised from the available
sources of revenue upon which the
city is dependent, namely, taxation and
licenses; and
Whereas, 1t has been shown in the
past that fully 80 per cent and more
of the energy and time of the Police
Department has been spent in making
arrests of what is termed on the prison
registers as drunk; and
Whereas, A large percentage of the
other misdemeanors and crimes are di-
rectlv traceable to the influence of in
toxicating drink; and
Whereas, The San Francisco Real
Estate Board believes that the expense
of maintaining the San Francisco po-
lice force should be largely or almost
entirely contributed by the revenue
derived from the retail liquor Ii
censes; and
Whereas. The San Francisco Real

withdrawal from the city of large
number of United States troops and
National Guard now on duty and the
consequent necessity for the employ

property and maintaining peace and
order in the community: and
Whereas, The San Francisco Real
Estate Board believes that in order to
properly accomplish this that the pres
ent police force should be increased;

water here. He said that the Hotaling
establishment had paid as high as
$3.50 per barrel for distilled water to
use in it's work of rectifying spirits.
Many wholesale liquor men and
some of the more prosperous class OF
retailers have expressed their opinion
to Deputy Fowler that the city author
tiles were right in stopping the sale On
liquor for, say, six months, in the
present crisis, as they realize that any
disorders or crimes traceable to over
indulgence in intoxicating drinks
would be laid at their doors.

Board met yesterday and adopted res

Whereas. Owing to the disaster of
April Is, 1906, the conditions prevailing

Whereas, The closing of retail liquor
saloons in San Francisco during the
past four weeks has demonstrated be-
yond any question the splendid fact
that the good order and freedom of the
city from any crime has been almost
entirely due to such closing of sa-
looms; and
Whereas, Many people who. prior to

THE PROCEEDINGS.

Judge A, Perry presented the original
resolution, but it was abbreviated from
his draft to the above form. Many
members spoke on the resolution, but
request was made that individual
opinions be not published. The sense
of the meeting, however, was prac-
tica1ly unanimous that Smith had vio-
lated the confidential relations that
must exist between attorney and client,
in disclosing the statements of fact
made to him by the defendants which
nowhere appeared in the record of the
case and which would never have been
made public except through the attor-
ney's own divulgence.
1t was urged by some speakers that
the offense was one which could not
be overlooked by the Association and
preserve it's dignity. In answer to- a
question why the Supreme Court had
not taken notice of the incident, it was
said that the Supreme Court did not
feel justified in taking up such matters
of its own motion when no statute on
the subject existed.
The resolution having passed by
unanimous vote, the president appoint
ed A. Perry, W. L. Stanley and D. l..
Wilmington as a committee of investi-
cation.
