NEBRASKA COMMISSION
FIXING FREIGHT RATES

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 13.-The state rail
way commission today announced its de-
cision on cream rates, but has not form
ulated its figures. The railroads and ex-
press companies at a recent hearing asked
the right TO increase rates. This will be
allowed on long hauls, but on short hauls
the rate will be lowered. There will be
no radical change, but after the new rates
go into effect Nebraska will be put on a
distance tariff with regard to cream ship
ments. and the old special rates will be
abolished.

METCALF BACK
IN WASHINGTON
Secretary of the Navy Has
Been Absent From His Post
for Three Months.
WHAT HE SAW ON COAST
LABOR QUESTION BECOMING A
SERIOUS MATTER.
WHAT HE SAW ON COAST

Washington, Sept 13-Secretary of the
Navy Metcalf returned today after an
absence since June %. when he left for
California to make announcement of the
cruise of the Atlantic fleet to the Pacific
coast He referred today to the Pacific
coast trip of the fleet as a dead issue.
He said he had been out of touch with
the navy department for so long that more
details had been made public here than
had been communicated to him. He de-
clined to discuss the japanese question
saying that he had heard too much on that
subject or on the anti-Oriental incidents
in cities of Washington and British Co
lumbia.
Only One Dock.
Secretary Metcalf made number of OBJ
servations of importance in connection
with the visit of the Atlantic fleet to the
Pacific coast. He found that while the
government has only one dock on the
Pacific coast that is capable of taking a
battleship, there are a number of private
docks that might be available if needed.
OF these, three are at San Francisco The
only government dock is at Bremerton
and this location, it is believed. makes it
likely that the entire fleet may go as far
north as Puget sound before returning to
Atlantic waters. Concerning this proba-
bility, Secretary Metcalf said that there is
water enough at Bremerton to float the
entire fleet at one time.

Coast Labor Question.

The labor question on the coast, the sec
rotary said, is becoming more serious ev-
cry day and he instanced the fact that
the navy yards at Mare Island and Bre-
merton are working far under their capa-
city by reason of the labor famine. He
pointed out that in the west carpenters
are being paid as high as So per day. The
transportation question also was found by
the secretary to be serious. He said the
railroads cannot begin to haul the crops
and the passenger train service is very
heavy.

The. halt which the Senate called on
the bill for street railway approaches to

and hoUsehOlders in that section Of the
city 10 express their opinion on the pro-

Thursday Senator Mallory viii present
in the Senate a petition signed by over
800 property owners against the project
This petition represents 50 per cent of the
property owners along New Jeresy ave

insist ought TO be paramount to those
Of the street railway company in view Of
the fact that the section in question is
served by TWO other railway lines The
petition is as follows
I'VE. the undersigned property owners
and residents on New Jersey avenue from
Massachusetts avenue TO Florida avenue
hereby petition your honorable body
against the building Of a double track
stTeet-car line Of the Capital Traction
Street Railway Company. OF any company,
on New Jersey avenue, as proposed in
Senate bill 6l4L
We are opposed 10 this legislation for
the following reasons:
First. There is no need Of additional
street railway facilities in this territory.
the Fourth street line being only one
square west and the North Capitol street
line two squares east of the avenue
Second II would destroy the appear
ance Of a beautiful residence avenue and
driveway. when it has been the policy Of
Congress to keep them free from rail-
ways.
Third. This avenue is a beautiful drive
way leading directly from the Capitol 20
the northwestern section Of the city and
the Soldiers Home Park. The other good
driveways in that direction already have
street railways.
Fourth The trees would be destroyed
where it was necessary 10 widen the ave
nue. also the beautiful park between I
and X streets.
Fifth. We honestly believe that "a street
car line along Ihe avenue would greatly
dep7cciate the value Of our property as
residences, and il IS practically valueIess
as business property. which would not be
improved by a street car line.
sixth. The Capital Traction Company
can reach the new depot by at least three
other feasible routes. which are well
known 10 your honorable body
