TO REDUCE DENVER RATES
Commissioner Prouty Suggests Meas
ure of Relief.

Denver, Jan 24.-The hearing be.
tore Interstate Commerce Commls.
sioner Charles A. Prouty on the com
plants of the Merchants Traffic asso.
citation and George j. tiindel, manu-
facturer, alleging illegal discrimina
tion against Denver by the trunk line
railroads in freight tariffs, was con
cluded.
The most important development
was the suggestion by Mr.. Prouty that
the local rates between Missouri river
points and Denver and Denver and
Utah points be reduced instead OF
establishing a new basic division point
at Denver, as asked for by the pc
titioners. If this were done without
a corresponding reduction in through
rates, he thought it would give a
measure of relief to Denver without
great harm to other points.

ENGLAND GETS REPORT
BRITISH COLONIAL OFFICE HEARS
FROM sWETTENHAM.
SENDS COPY OF LETTER TO DAVIS
Whether Advices From Governor OF
Jamaica Contain an Explanation or
an Apology is No. DIscosed-Two
More Shocks at Kingston.

London. Jan. 24.-The colonial OF.
6ce now has official advices from Sir
Alexander Swettenham, governor of
Jamaica, concerning the exchange OF
letters between himself and Rear Ad.
miral Davis. The extent of the ad.
vices, however and whether they con
tain an explanation, an apology, or ex-
tenuating circumstances, has not been
disclosed.
1t appears that the imperial author.
tiles requested the governor of ia
maiCa to send them a copy of his let
ter to Rear Admiral Davis. This has
been furnished, and it shows that the
letter sent out by the Associated
Press was to all intents and purposes
a correct copy. Secretary of Colonies
Lord Elgin sent a second cablegram
to Governor Swettenham, asking him
to give his version of the affair, anc
to this the foreign office informed the
Associated Press no answer has yet
been received.
The fact that Governor Swettenham
wrote the letter to Rear Admiral Da-
Wis having been established, there re-
mains only to determine the official
formalities, and the indications are
that the matter will be handled
through the usual diplomatic channels
and that the correspondence will be
made public in a blue book.
