UNCLE SAM MUST
PAY FULL FARE

OMAHA, Nebr, Jan. 29.-The Union
Pacific and Northwestern railroads have
refused TO make any special rates TO
the Government for the shipment of
soldiers en- route to the Philippines to
and from San Francisco, and the quar-
termasters department Of the Depart
ment Of the Missouri is much disap-
pointed over this action.
Bids were opened. in Omaha yesterday
for the transportation of 500 men. 500
horses and a large amount of equip
ment from Forts Robinson and Russell
to San Francisco. Only the Union Pa
cific and the Northwestern submitted
bids and both were for regular and full
fares. Railroad officials say the Gov
ernment will get no more cheap fares.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29-Although
the Union Pacific and Northwestern
railroads have refused TO make a spe-
cial rate for troops bound for San
Francisco. the quartermaster generals S
department will not delay the sailing
of the 600 men for the Philippines. The
Government is allowed a military rate
Of $3.50 from Omaha to San Francisco,
as against the commercial rate of $40.
By reason of the fact that the Santa
Fe. which is a land grant road. is en-
abled through its connecting lines out
of Omaha to make the rate $27.50, the
other roads are permitted to carry
troops for the same fare.
The Interstate Commerce. Commission
has held, however, that the new rail-
road rate law has not modified the
original interstate commerce act to the
extent that IL prevents the carriage,
storage or handling of property free
or at reduced rates for the Government
While admitting that the law in terms
was limited to property, the opinion
also was expressed that reduced rates
might be allowed for transportation of
persons ION the broad ground that the
allowance of special and lower rates
TO the Government is a benefit to the
entire public and therefore not a dis
elimination"

Moore G. Scott, the lowest bidders, al
though their concern is young, have

mechanically able to handle the Sheri-

REASON FLEES ON
WEDDING DAY

MARTINEZ, Jan. 29-Closely guard
ed by four friends, Manuel LucidO, a
wealthy Italian of this city, is con-
fined to his home in hopes that a sud
denly evidenced insanity will pass
from him before it becomes necessary
to take him to an asylum. Lucido's
case is extremely pitiful, as the malady
asserted itself first on Sunday while
he was celebrating his marriage to one
of the most beautiful young Italian
girls Of San Francisco. The couple ar
rived here on a morning train Sunday
and at once sat down TO a sumptuOus
breakfast Two intimate friends of
the bridegroom failed to make their
appearance, and this fact seemed to
make him mOrOse. He acted queerly
throughout the feasting and seemed
little in accord with the spirit of the
occasion.
The groom became violent Sunday
evening and threatened TO kill not only
himself, but his wife and father-in-law
as well. He became so excited finally
that they left the house and remained
outside half the night The bride re-
turned. and thinking him quieted in
duced the others TO come in. Early yes
terday morning Mrs. Lucido was kicked
out of bed and chased from the house
in her night clothes. while the de-
mented husband terrorized the other
inmates.
Luctdo's peculiar actions were re-
peated last night. and this morning at
Z o'clock he dashed from the house.
partly clad. and ran through the mud
to the Changers wharf, where he
leaped into a fishing boat and rowed
with superhuman strength to Port
Costa, where he was Overtaken by four
friends in gasoline launch.
