FILE THE RATE BILL REPORT
If TiIIman Refuses Signature cuIIom
viii Present 1t
By Associated Press.


WASHINGTON, June 22.-The con-
was filed in the house today as was
expected.
The report was drawn and signed by
the three house conferees, Messrs.
Hepburn, Sherman and Richardson and
also by Senator Elkins of the senate
conferees. Senator Tillman objects to
one feature of the settlement and Sena-
tor Cullom, it is understood, will sign
the report tomorrow.
Senator Tillman left for Philadelphia
yesterday, but is expected here to-
morrow. He will be given opportunity
to sign the report, but should he de-
cline the report will be filed in the
house without his signature.
The portion of the agreement to
which Senator Tillman objects is the
compromise proposition which would
apply the McLaurin commodity amend
ment to railroads only instead of to
common carriers so far as it prohibits
them from carrying commodities
which they produce.
What is regarded as an important
amendment which was agreed to at to-
days conference was the striking out
of the word "wilfully" in the provision
which forbids the granting of or ac-
cepting rebates. The word Knowing
ly'' was left in the provision. The eff
feet is that person must simply
knowingly" offer or receive rebate,
it not being necessary to prove that
the act was "wilfully DONE"
Under the rules of the house the
conference report will have to be print
ed in the Congressional record before II
can be acted upon Should the report
be filed tomorrow it will not be avail
able for action until Monday.
Should Senator Tillman persist in his
refusal to sign the report it will be
presented in the senate by Senator Cul-
lom according to the procedure govern
ing such matters

EAST STRUGGLES WITH ASHES
California, With OIL for Fuel, Avoids
All Locomotive Troubles

While ash handling apparatus does
not appeal strongly to Pacihc coast
railroad men, who use oil as fuel on To-
it is interesting to note eX-
in the east, particularly when
il involves a western road-the Santa
Fe.
The yard at Argentine, across from
Kansas City, is one of the largest on
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and
the number of locomotives to be cared
for approximates $50 daily The ash
pit facilities for these locomotives here
tofore have been the usual shovel
cleaned type.
Some more expeditions and cheaper
method became necessary, however,
and a mechanical plant has recently
been completed.
There are four concrete pits. each 1876
feet long, feet inches wide, under as
many tracks leading to the roundhouse.
In the bottom of each pit is a track
of 12-pound rails, on which run four
trucks with removable buckets. When
a locomotive is to be cleaned one or
more of these trucks is run under the
ashpan and it's contents dumped into
the bucket.
Spanning the four pits, midway of
their length, is an overhead I-beam
track with trolley and hoisting block.
The trolley may be stopped over any
one of the four pits and the instant it
stops the block will descend. The load
ed bucket is conveyed to the top of the
circular bin at one side of the tracks.
This bin is built entirely of reinforced
concrete, and is lined with brick. The
construction obviates all danger from
fire, and the brick lining takes up the
wear on the bottom.
The bin has a capacity of rs tons, and
is hoppered to the center. The accu-
mulated cinders are dumped through
a gate on a track beneath. Several car
loads are handled every twenty-four
hours.

FUNDS WILL BE FORTHCOMING
New Apportionment OVercomes En-
uineer's Error in Harbor Work


Captain C. A. Fries, engineer in
charge, says there is no occasion for
alarm over the rumor in San Pedro
that a shortage of funds exists with
which to carry on the harbor work at
San Pedro.
A miscalculaton as to the cost of
work in the outer harbor was made, but
this will be remedied by new appor-
tionment of the funds. The apportion-
ment which is short applied only 10 a
section of the work, whereas the gov
ernment makes an appropriation for
the whole undertaking.
The contract for dredging ran up to
a greater amount than the engineers
had anticipated. The channel has
been dredged 100 feet wide to a depth
of twenty-three feet but the plans call
for a channel 400 feet wide. third
of the 100000 yards to be dredged have
been removed.
officials of the North American
Dredging company estimate that $4,000
extra will be needed to carry out the
specifications.
The work inside the bar is being done
by d government dredge, as II is
thought the work can be done more
cheaply In that manner.
The trouble seems to have arisen over
the fact that old surveys were used in
calculating the cost.
AS now arranged the funds at hand
will permit Of dredging only a week
longer, but Captain Fries has written
10 Washington concerning the problem.

Grant to wrestle Mackey.

Joe Grant and Rob Roy Mackey will settle
a dispute of long standing when they meet
tonight In their handicap wrestling match
at the Washington Light Infantry Armory.
Grant has agreed to throw Mackey twice
In an hour His reason for assuming such
a large contract Is that he VIII weigh about
1875 pounds, while Mackey will not weigh
over 14S Grant is the champion middle
weight Of the south, while Mackey is the
champion welterweight of the same section.
Formerly they were both welteFweights,
and Mackey, who was the much older man,
also proved the better wrestler Since then
Grant has grown Into the middleweight
division. and has become one of the most
proficient wrestlers ever developed in
Washington. In spite of this Nacliey has
claimed that he was still just good as
Grant pound for pound, and the match to-
morrow night win settle the question for
good and all. Mackey has come to the
front surprisingly fast this winter after
cutting little figure In the game for two
or three years. and the rapid manner In
which he has disposed of every man he
has met has wen the confidence of a large
number of supporters, who believe he can
not only stand Grant of for an hour, but
work fast enough to Keep on top OF the
larger man great portion OF the time.
