Washington, Sept. 1.Shippers Of
the country are taking advantage Of
the new railroad freight rate law to
seek relief from the interstate com
merce commission for what they re-
gard as unreasonable or unjust con-
ditions imposed upon them by the
railroad companies. Many petitions to
this effect are being received by the
commission.
The Texas Cattle Raisers' associa-
ton of Texas entered q complaint
against the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
railway and many other railroad cor
porations because of a charge of 81
car on live stock made by a terminal
railway at Chicago. The complainant
maintains that the charge is excessive
and unreasonable and that 1t ought to
be included in the through rate on car
loads of live stock from Texas TO Chi
cago.
The interstate commerce commission
decided several years ago that the
charge of So car as a transfer or ter

The case was taken to the supreme
court of the United States and an or

Chicago was overthrown on the ground
of lack Of authority. Now, under the

REACHED NEW YORK.
The Democrat Is Transaetins Business
in the Wicked City.


New York, Sept William J..
Bryan arrived in this city from
Bridgeport this morning and went to
the Victoria hotel. After remaining
there short time Mr.. Bryan left the
hotel to attend some personal business.
On his way from Bridgeport, Bryan
was asked what he thought about the
argument of certain republicans that
President Roosevelt will be the next
logical republican candidate for presi-
dent Bryan seid that IL 1t was true.
as many republicans had declared, that
he completely destroyed the democratic
party, there ought to be dozens of able
republicans who would be available as
candidates, as it would appear that al
most any republican could win with the
democratic party wiped out. There
would then be no necessity of giving
President Roosevelt what would be
regarded by many as practically a
third term.
With such an easy victory for the
republicans ahead why, he asked,
should not somebody else be given a
chance.
When asked what he thought of the
criticism by the democrats of his idea
of federal ownership of the railroads,
Bryan said that he had never adyocat-
ed anything that was not opposed in
some quarters.
He was told that some Of the south
ern democrats seem alarmed lest Jim
Crow cars should be eliminated by
the adoption of his ideas of federal
ownership, Bryan, in reply to this, said
that If the various states owned lines
within their borders, the local laws
would continue to be enforced.

Cleveland, o., Sept. Suppose you
We're a laborer at 81 a day, with two
small children, and lived in a. cottage
of five rooms, and awoke one day to
find that the stork had left triplets
Would you be glad when in a frantic
effort to adjust yourself to this new
condition you found that you had to
have three sets of baby clothes made
quickly; that you had to have a crib
and baby carriage built for three;
that when one mouth was Just full
two others were open?
Suppose you were just beginning to
senjoy life when the babies got the
measles at the same time; next they
got the whooping cough; when one
was vaccinated all three took; then
you had to quarantine two because
one had diphtheria well, how would
you like to have triplets?

John Dickoslly, 1855 East Ninety

He found that his small income as a
farm laborer was insufficient to meet
the demands of his family, so he came
to America.
Mrs Dickosky a slender little wo-
man, has nursed these triplets through
infantile diseases without any servant.
