Chicago, III. Dec. 21.-In q report
which will. be made to the President re-
garding car shortage, the Interstate
Commerce Commission will recommend
several amendments to the p, esent law
This fact devel ped today " hen the Com
mission concluded investigation which
was made in this city. Both Commits
sioners Lane and Harlan frankly admit
ted that the task the Commission had
assumed was the bi gest and the most
puzzling in the history Of that body.
There is no doubt that the Commission
will, among other recommendations, ia
yor an amendment which will give it the
power to regulate the favors With respect
to the use Of cars which railroads extend
to shippers in order to secure business,
fully realizing that such law would re.

Whether it will favor a reciprocal de-

expressed their opinion in favor OF the
regulation of transportation privileges to
shippers and it is not altogether beyond
the possibilities that the Commission
may seriously consider the advisability
OF an amendment placing the entire op-
GRAFTON OF railroads under It's Jurisdiction.
The plan to secure control of shipping
privileges discloses one of the strongest
anomalies ever brought te light in the
transportati n business of the country.
The shippers have been bombarding
Congress for legislation which will bring
to them greater privileges from TIE rail-
roads, yet it was shown ia the hearing
here and was freely admitted by shippers
that the railroads had voluntarily, under
stress of competition. granted them priv
iieges which have been large factor in
the transportation paralysis which now
exists.
Still another anomaly which struck the
Commissioners was the undisputed fact
that the railroads had exercised almost

Return Of Peary's Ship.

New Y York, Dec 24.-With prac'
tically all the members of the Arc.
tic expedition which left in July
1905, under Commander Robert E.
Peary on a voyage to discover the
North Pole, the ship Roosevelt ar
rived in New York Bay tonight
and anchored off West Forty eec.
ond street, almost in the place
from which she started. Com
mander Peary has been in the city
for some weeks, having left bis
vessel at Sydney.
It was long after dark when the
Roosevelt came to anchor, but the
men aboard were jubilant at reach
ing New York, where they could
eat their Christmas dinner in clvili-
zstion instead of in the Far North,
where last year Christmas day was
spent.
The Roosevelt, although pretty
we'll ice-coyered, showed few signs
Of the wear ard tear entailed on
such a voyage, Notwithstanding
that the foretopmast was gone, lost
in a gale off Baffin's Bay on her
southern journey, and that che had
to be towed was due to the fact
that of the four blades in her pro-
peller three were out of action.
Every man that started out with
the expedition returned and in good
health. Counting Commander
Peary, the party numbers 81 men
all told.
On board also were 16 Esqui-
msux dogs of the 220 with which
the expedition started. There
we're also two sledges, one of them
being the one which Morris K.
Jessup fitted out and which is to
be returned to him as a souvenir
of the plucky attempt to reach the
pole.

LET THEM OFF.

1t is to be regretted that there is a
manifest disposition on the part of
some of the parents and employees
of members of the Marietta Rifles not
to permit them to attend the encamp-
ment at Chickamauga, The boys en-
list with the consent of their parents
and it is expected that they will per-
form all the duties required of them.
The Government provides all the
equipment and expenses and prepares
the men for service. and there should
be no obstacles thrown in their way
1t is expected that the Marietta Rifles
make splendid showing as they Fave
always done in the past, and in order
to do so it will be necessary to have
every man present. The company has
worked very hard in preparation for
the trip and will uphold the reputation
of the company provided the parents
and employees will do their part and
excuse the men.

LOST PURSE OUT OF WINDOW.
Excited Lady Passenger Pulled Bell
Cord and Stopped Train.

The Atlantic Coast Line passen-
ger train from Camilla to Albany
one day last week had unique
experience.
The train was running along at
the usual rate Of speed, when sud
denly the bell cord was pulled vio-
lently several times, the brakes
shrieked shrilly. and the train
came to a standstill.
The conductor rushed to the
passenger coach and found a wo-
man almost frantic. .Inquirirg,
he discovered that she had lost her
pocketbook out of the window, and
had pulled the cord. The rain
was falling in torrents, but the
woman, leading the conductor and
three other men, ran along the
track for about 2O0 yards, until
the purse was found, lying in the
mud.
The woman heaved a sigh of re-
lief when she got her hands on the
purse, and said: "There are two
hundred dollars in that purse, and
it's all I've got.
The rain-soaked search party
then returned to the train, aDd the
tri p was continued without further
disturbance.

value of crude oil and local oil.
One American ton OF coal was
found to be equivalent to 71S

quantity is expressed as two and a

Adaiisville. shipments of peaches could
not be made, and the peaches rooted
and had to be hauled away TO prevent
sickness. Where the growers there
expected to ship 40ocar loads, they will
not now be able to get more than $50
cars to the market The same condi-
tons prevailed at Gainesville, Emerson
and Marietta. Suits, it is said. will be
filed against the railroads for damages.
But it is stated that the railroads are
not to blame, as the South Georgia and
North Georgia crops were nearer to-
gether than ever before, and the cars
could not be released from the South
Georgia traffic in time for the crop
here. The crop in North Georgia
ripened faster than usual, owing to
weather conditions. Some say if they
can't market their crop they will cut
the trees down, but shat should not be
done. Experience is u good teacher

by the next season, and
