ANOTHER COMPLAINT FILED
AGAINST RAILROAD
SHIPPERS SAY THEY ARE ROBBED
BY HARTMAN LINES
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
Appealed to-Asked to Adjust
Charges on Fair
Basis
BY Associated Press.

ny Associated PresS.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ia third COM
paint of the North Pacific Lumber Manu-
facturers association against various rail-
roads was filed today with the Interstate
commerce commission.
While in some rspects the complaint is
identical with the others, 1t differs ma
terially in some features. The case ie
that of the Western Oregon LumberNManu-
facturers association and others against
the Southern Pacific company and the
Oregon & California Railroad company.
1t is alleged the defendants have In
creased the rates on general forest prod
ucts from the Willamette valley in Ore
gon to San Francisco bay points on an
average of about 40 per cent. The rail-
roads, it is asserted, gave as reason for
the increase that they desired to partici-
pate in the prosperity being enjoyed by
the lumber producers.
The complaint alleges that the Southern
Pacific company controls and operates the
Oregon & California railroad under a
iease, and that the freight situation on
the Pacific coast Is such that there is
practically no competition among the
various lines in handling lumber products.
The charges are asserted to be excessive,
rrjust, discriminatory and prohibitive. The
commission therefore is asked to adjust
the lumber rates on fair and equitable
basis ID.

GEORGETOWN, KY, Nov. 15-The
trial of Caleb Powers was largely con-
sumed in the work of impaneling a jury
from the special venire summoned from
Harrison county.
Powers was quite ill last night and the
services of a physician were necessary
He came into court today promptly, but
looked pale and weak. Many women at
tended court today for the first time since
the trial began.
During the examination of special
veniremen it developed that Harrison
county had been flooded with Powers
published book containing his speeches
and account of his trials.
Out of twelve prospective Jurors ex-
amined fully half had received through
the mail from some unknown source
copies of Powers book which, 1t appears,
had been sent to various precincts from
which veniremen had been summoned.
The discovery caused decided SEN
sation in court.
An amusing contrast with these de-
velopments was the statement Of one
venireman who had never heard or read
of the noted case.
The defense made a surprising move
today by asking leave to summon wit
nesses from Harrison county to show
the manner in selecting the special jury
which is now here. A sensation is said
to be behind the move, as the defense
claims it will be able to show that the
special venire was drawn from a hotbed
of Goebel Democrats. in which only
twenty-five Republicans reside.
