The vote ON the bill was preceded

Many amendments were accepted,
but only in one case was mOdifica-

ever known in the history of the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
roads is now on. Extra tourist cars,
completely filed are daily added to

TO AMEND TARIFFS.
Northern Pacific TO Vipe Out Dis
eliminating Tariffs.

Olympia, Feb. 19.-The Northern
Pacific has agreed to wipe out the dis
eliminating rates against Seattle job
bers in Portland territory and also
practically announces that it will not
obey the 1905 car.weighing law SO far
as it applies to lumber for interstate
traffic. These facts are learned from
letters received at the Office of the
state railroad commission.
Some months ago G. H. Lily & Co.,
of Seattle. shipped twenty sacks Of oats
to billy. Or, and although the North
ern Pacific published tariffs provided
for q 2O-cent rate for the Seattle.t0-
Portland haul, the road demanded 90
cents as the rate. Lilly complained
and l. A. Nadeau, general agent of
the Northern Pacific, wrote a letter,
which il on file here, saying that
fourth class rates were 20 cents If
Portland was the terminal, but on
freight going to points beyond Port
land the tariff was 20 cents.
Under the railroad commission law
the state commission is authorized not
only to enforce the state alws on state
business, but is required to investigate
all complaints of violation of inter
state laws. and if found correct, to
bring them before the interstate COM
MERGE commission. Under this au.
thority the commission took up the
Lilly complaint and correspondence
with the railroad was had. Last week
an official announcement was received
from the Northern Pacific, stating that
the matter had been considered and
tariffs would be amended "to the en-
tire satisfaction of the people making
the complaint and other shippers.
