last.
Mr.. lehman 0mesto Grand Forks

city since. He was baker by trade
and has been engaged in business dur
ing his residence here. Up to the

Mt. Savage is well informed OF, the
culture and patronage extended to
high class operate enterprises In the

Forks a superb performance of
sGunod's Faust, !" the most popular
masterpiece in all grand opera litera-

start promptly at S:15 O'Clock, and
the same rules will necessarily pre-,

This means that opera patrons should,
arrive in time to enjoy the overture
before the curtain rises, as 1t will be
impossible to permit late corners to
interrupt the performances by taking
their seats until after the first act.
This brilliant Gonnod opera with its
sparkling Jewel Song and other

EN- Up.
Yesterday morning train No. 8 was
wrecked two miles south OF Comstock,
a small station just below Moorhead.
The manner in which the accident oc-
CURED is not known. 1t is supposed,
however, that the snow and ice froze
onto the track in such a manner that
the f1anges could not penetrate 1t and
the derailment resulted.i Either this
or a spreading of the rails.
In any event the train was brought
to a dead stop in the midst of drift
of snow and when an investigation
was made, it was discovered that the
entire train was derailed. Some Of
the passengers were badly shaken up,
but none seriously injured.
The drift of snow in which the ac-
cident happened broke the jar of the
derailment and lessened the danger of
injury. None of the cars toppled over
although the rear sleeper came very
near going over, slanting very badly.
The equipment of train No. 10 was
sent to the scene OF the wreck and the
passengers brought to Fargo where
they were cared for until the track
was cleared. Most of the cars were
easily put back on the track but some
of them proved refractory and caused
delay.
The train was rehabitated at Fargo
and reached this city at $3.50 last even
ing, being thirteen hours and forty
five minutes late.

was void. The arrest was made ON the

The relatives of the mail carrier of
route No. 2 north of this city, were
badly frightened Saturday when the
person in question did not show up
on schedule time. He had gone into
house on his route when the bliz-
card started and thus did not make the
rounds on scheduled time. The job of
mail carrier is not what it is cracked
up to be, especially in the weather like
that which prevailed Saturday. Z

CONFER ON RATES.
Important Conference Between Inter+
state Commission and Railroads.

| WASHINGTON, August l.---An i'm
portant formal conference between the
Interstate Commerce Commission and
representatives OF the Western Trunk
Lines and traffic officials OF various
southern and southwestern roads took
place yesterday in the hearing room Of
the commission. II related to the con-
struetion to be placed by the commits
sion on the recently enacted rate law.
Extended statements were made to the
commission by several of the railroad
officials. The principal speakers were
J. c. Stubs of the Southern Pacific;
W. B Biddle of the Chicago, Rock Island
/ Pacific; j. NJ. Culp of the Southern
Railway, and Darius Miller of the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy.
In brief the railroad officials made
three general requests OF the commits
sion:
First, that reasonable extension OF
time be given them to prepare and pub
lish and file with the commission their
new tariff schedules under the law and
also book containing the rates, might
be left with each station agent, instead
of being posted at the station.
Second, that the requirement OF
notice of 30 days in change of rate
or rates be eliminated particularly as
to import and export traffic. 1t was
pointed out that often these rates had
to be changed within few hours to
meet local conditions and that it would
be practically impossible to anticipate
these changes by even one day, not to
mention 80 days.
Third, that the railroads be relieved
from the publication of terminal rates
at points of destination and allowed to
publish them only at the point where
the charges originate.
The passenger traffic officials re-
quested the commission not to insist on
the filing of new rates at this time as
their rates under the new law would
be precisely the same for a time at
least, as they are now and the present
rates are on file with the commission.
