RAILROADS GAIN.
Reduced Passenger Rate in Nebraska
SweIls Earnings.

Omaha, Oct. 21.-Instead of the new
two-cent railroad fare law having re-
duced the rates in Nebraska, it has act
ually increased the average rate per
mile in this state, according tc the re-
port of the Union Pacific railroad,
which has Just been filed with the
State Railway commission. And in
stead of the railroads having fear OF
the two-cent law, they have been
laughing in their sleeves over the di-
version they have creaetd by kicking
against the passenger rates and drawing
attention from the high freight rates
charged in the trans Mississippi coun-
try.
The annual report of the Union Pa
cific, which has just been filed with the
commission, proves on examination to
be brief in behalf of the two-cent
fare. Since the new law was enacted,
the Union Pacific and other Nebraska
railroads are charging full two cents
per mile, as permitted by law. No ex,
cursion rates, no reduced fare, no com
mutation tickets Of any kind and in
fact nothing less than straight two.
cent fare ticket is sold in Nebraska
But the report which has just been
made public shows that last year the
average passenger travelled in Nebraska
at the rate of 1.96 cents for each mile,
rate actually lower than that which
is now charged by the railroads under
the new law.

TAFT'S DELPHlC WORDS.
Says He Viii Probably be Private Cit
izen In Two Years.

Manila, Oct. 2l.-At a banquet given
in his honor in this city Saturday
night, Secretary of War William II
Taft made most significant statement
He was referring to the fact that he
had already visited the Philippines
three times and in expressing his in.
tention to come here again, he said:
81 hope in another two years to visit
Manila again, but then I probably will
come as private citizen"
The significance Of Mr.. Taft's re.
marks in relation to the chances of his
nomination for the presidency next
year, did not seem to strike his audi.
ence. The secretary's speech was re.
ceived with much enthusiasm by the
representatives of the Filipinos pres
ent, when he declared the government
was anxious, and ready to help the bust
ness prosperity Of the islands.
Mr.. Taft devoted the day to an in.
spection of the schools of Manila.

ARRANGE COMPROMISE.
Warning TeIegraphers to Settle Differ
ences in Convention.

Chicago, Oct. lS.-Warring officials
of the striking telegraphers reached a
compromise tonight. They have post
poned hostilities until the convening Of
the emergency convention, called in
Milwaukee for October %.
The elimination of S. j. Small, for
mer president, as factor in the fight
will be sought at the convention by the
executive committee. A temporary
president to succeed Small and direct
the strike or its settlement will be
chosen, it is expected, from the COM
mittee's membership. Mr.. Small still
contends that no convention will be
called, but is making efforts to control
its action through his friends.
The truce of the battling officials
came after a descent upon the tele.
graphers' headquarters in the Monon
building by ex-President Small and,a
bodyguard of detectives. They arrived
before the members OF the executive
committee reached the office and took
possession at once. The committee
members and Secretary Russell were
refused admission to the offices.
After much parleying the late corners
were permitted to take their places
and Small locked himself in his private
office. The terms of the compromise
were not given out by the participants
General superintendent Cook ant
Capen, of the telegraph companies as
sert that from six to ten men apply fol

Government May Establish Line
to ISthmuS Of Panama.
PACIFIC MAIL SERVICE is BAD
Chambers of Commerce of Pacific
Ports Asked for Data as to
Prospective Business.

San Francisco, Oct. 19.-President
G. H. Bentley, of the chamber of COM
merce, has taken up the task of provid.
ing the War department of the United
States with all the information availa-
BILE in San Francisco that the depart
ment requires preliminary to consider
ing the advisability of putting on a line,
OF steamers to compete with the Pacific
Mail between the isthmus of Panama
and San Francisco and other Pacific
Coast ports. A committee has been
appointed by Mr.. Bentley, with Cap
tain William Matson as chairman, and
including George D. Gray and James
McNab.
This information has been asked for
by Joseph L. Bristow, who was ap-
pointed special commissioner by
President Roosevelt two years ago to
look into the steamship service between
American ports, and is now under in
structions by the War department to-
proceed further along the same lines.
81 am advised by the secretary of
war;" Mr.. Bristow has written to the
chambers Of commerce of San Francis
co, Los Angeles, San Diego, Portland,
Seattle and Tacoma, "that, while the
service of the Pacific Mail Steamship
company has not been withdrawn, it is
very unsatisfactory. He has advised
me to make further inquiry as to the
advisability Of the governments estab-
fishing a steamship line between the
Pacific Coast ports ofaathe United States
and Panama."
AT first it was supposed that the in
quiry would deal largely and to a GER
tain extent exclusively with the oues-
tion Of how much freight could be pro-
vided by the government as canal
digger and in its capacity of furnishing,
supplies for the great naval and mill
tary plants to be located at San Fran
cisco, and for the insular possession Of
the United States in the Pacific which
move by sea. Now it is developed that.
the scope of the proposed governmental
line OF line Of steamships is much,
wider.
Mr.. Bristow has submitted list of
questions to the several chambers of
commerce of the Pacific Coast regard
ing all sorts of freight that can be.
moved by sea. The questions run the.
complete gamut of the sea-carrying.
trade and include the following:
Under neutral conditions, with,
rates fixed upon basis of reasonable,
compensation for services rendered,
would there be sufficient business be-.
tween the Pacific and Atlantic ports of
the United States to warrant the estab-,
lishment of first-class line of steam
ships to make regular schedule trips,
weekly from Pacific Coast ports to Pan
ama?"

RAILWAY CLEARING HOUSE.
Official Suggests Feasible Scheme to
Prevent Car Shortage.

Los Angeles, Oct. 18.-Nearly every
railway company is studying to perfect
plans for the quick movement Of cars
and rolling stock, with view to elm
mating the shortage features Of the
business this winter. 1t is argued that
with the proper shifting of cars and a
careful adjustment nearly one-third
more business can be transacted with
the present equipment.
1t is suggested by an official here,
and the plan is under consideration,
that there be formed poel of equip
ment by the various roads and clear
ing house for cars. Any demand for
cars by any road would be made to the
clearing house, and that concern would
give over the required number OF cars
from the nearest supply, or in case OF
a shortage, or multiplicity of de-
mands the orders would be filled pro
rata.
Under this plan it would be the duty
Of every road to wire daily reports Of
the exact location of all its cars. The
entire equipment Of the pool would be
registered in the clearing house, much
in the same manner in which the cars
of line are tabulated by each of the
different roads at present.

Oregon STATE items OF INTEREST
FRUIT LAND IN DEMAND,
Many Sales of Rogue River Valley

Ashland-Things have been doing in
Rogue river valley orchard lands re-
Gently as never before and numerous
sales have been made in every portion
of the valley at prices that few years
ago would have been counted fabulous,
but which in reality are demonstrated
10 be only fair values when the returns
from them and the possibilities OF the
future are taken into consideration
Hundreds of thousands OF dollars of
outside capital are being poured into
the orchard industry in the Rogue river
valley, in the purchase of bearing orch
ards, as we'll as in the planting of new
orchards. Inquiries for larger or small
er tracts Of the highly priced real estate
of this valley are coming in from many
states. Those who thought prices Of
orchard lands had reached the top notch
a year or two ago are still wondering
were it is going to stop, and people who
cold too soon are sorry.

BATTLE ON STREETCAR.
One Man Killed and Three Injured
Over Transfer.

San Francisco, Oct. 21.-As result
of trouble over transfer slip on Polk
street car of the United Railroads sys-
tenn Saturday evening, one man was
shot and killed, another go seriously
wounded that death will probably en-
sue, and two other men less severely
injured.
When the car left the ferry to pass
out Mission street, on its way to Polk,
| it was packed with passengers, includ-
ing men returning from work, and wo-
men and children who had been across
the bay. The crowded condition OF
the car made it difficult for the con
ductor to collect fares and, when Polk
street was reached, both he and the un-
comfortably crowded passengers were in
condition Of irritable nervousness.
The man who started the trouble, &C.
cording to his own admissions to the
police, was John Monger. He said that
when he paid his fare, early on the
trip, he had asked the conductor for a
transfer. Brown was busy and tolG
Monger to wait awhile. Monger re-
peated his request several times, anc
Brown failed to hand him the slip
Finally Monger concluded that Brown
did not intend to give him the ticket
and struck at the conductor. The lat
ter lodged the blow and struck back a
Monger, striking him in the face anC
knocking him down.
1t was at this juncture that thu
shooting commenced. At the same
time some one threw off the trolley anc
the car came to standstill. The stop
page of the car, coupled with the nois'
in the rear, led the motorman to be
lieve that his mate was in danger and
revolver in hand, he pushed his wa!
through the crowded passengers.

TRADE HAS NOT DECREASED.
American-Asia Association Expects No
War With Japan.

New York, Oct. 1S.-That there has
not been falling off in trade with
Japan following the Japanese Russian
war, but on the contrary healthful re-
sumption of normal conditions, was the
statement of James r. Morse, presi-
dent of the American-Asiatic associa-
tion, at the annual meeting of the Or
ganization today. Conditions in China
have not been so good, but there are
prospects of recovery from depressed
conditions. In the secretary's report,
John Ford says:
''The obviously temporary character
of the settlement of the japanese ex-
clusion question in California tended
to encourage rather than to check the
circulation of foolish and mischevious
rumors of impending war between the
two countries. All the influence of
your executive committee has been ex-
erted to demonstrate the absurdity of
assuming that there could be any seri-
GUS quarrel between the two govern
ments in dealing with the issue raised
in California"

TEAR UP THE TOWN.
Ex-Chief Dinan Turns Crooks Loose.
in San Francisco.

San Francisco, Oct. 19.-The familiar
game of applying crooked police methods
to desperate political situation is be-
ing energetically worked in San Fran
cisco. The purpose is to discredit the,
present administration of the police de-
partment and thus to injure the candi-
dacy of Mayor Taylor.
Behind the game, pulling the strings,
is Jerry Dinan, the indicted chief Of
police, who saved himself from sum-
mary dismissal by resigning. His chief
of staff is his bosom friend, ''Kid" Sui
livan, "king Of the pickpockets." +"
The staff consists Of the little army
OF crooks, men and women, whom Di-
nan allowed to stay here and ''do busi-
ness" II they "got right with him
through "Kid" Sullivan.
Word has been sent out for the gang
to "tear up the town." and in conse-
quence hold-ups, petty thievery and
thuggery have increased to an alarming
extent.

University's Great Growth.

University of Oregon, Eugene-The
registration Of the University of Oregon
in the departments at Eugene, exclu-
sive of the School of Music, has prac-
tically reached the 400 mark. The
total enrolment in all departments at
the present time is between $50 and
800. At the beginning of President
Campbell's administration in 1902 the
attendance was 224. The present fresh
man class numbers almost as many stu
dents as the total enrolment at that
time. If the present rate of growth
continues, it is expected the number of
students next year will reach 600 in
the departments at Eugene exclusive of
music. The university offers no high
school subjects, the requirements for
entrance being the completion of the
four-year high school course.

Keep Poor at Home,

Victoria, B. c., Oct. 19.-Accordinp
to advices the Japanese government
will organize bureau of emigration
and colonization. Recent action on the.
part of the government resulting from
the protests from the Pacific coast have
forced into liquidation % immigration
companies. The government raised the
indemnity which each company is COM
pelled to furnish, from from IS, 900
each to $25,0 Another circumstance
having to do with their failure is the
refusal to issue passports to Mexico and
Peru.

Suspend Enrolling Fee,

Klamath Falls-In order to get addi-
tional lands under the Klamath project
signed up, the Waterusers' association
has voted to suspend for the next 90
days the enrolling fee Of IS cents per
acre, charging only the assessment fee
of 10 cents per acre. 1t is hoped thus
to insure the beginning Of the Clear
lake dam next year. Those familiar
with conditions say that no difficulty
will be encountered in securing the ad-
ditional land. A resolution was drawn
up, protesting against the recent action
of the reclamation service in leasing
the Clear lake reserve to sheepmen, as
it is feared that when the attempt is
made to take sheep on range where
cattlemen have always had control Sc
rious trouble will arise.

Correspondence Work Success.

University of Oregon, Eugene-The
demand throughout the state for the
correspondence work now being offered
by the University of Oregon is greatly
surprising the expectations OF its most
sanguine supporters. In number of
towns the teachers are forming clubs
and carrying on work under the direc-
tion of the university instructors. The
interest is not confined to teachers,
however, foI many young men and wo-
men who have found it impossible to
attend college are taking the work. To
begin with, only a small number Of
courses are being offered, such as Eng
lish Classics and Shakespeare, English
History, Pedagogy, Algebra, etc., but
Others will be added from time to time.
