arms Given by Hill and Hartman
Hoa to Be Attacked. It is said
ihey Have a Defense Sum of $780,.
VOO' Most Important Before the
interstate Commerce Commission.

seattle, Wash, Sept. 16.-After a
conference with Franklin K. Lane of
the interstate commerce commission
lne Pacific Coast Lumber Manufacture
ers association announced that formal
complaint will be shortly filed with the
commission attacking the reasonable
ness OF the new lumber tariffs recent
~ MED by the Hill and the Hartman
lines.
The lumbermen have a defense fund
OF $25O,OOO. The hearing, which will
cover a wide scope, will be one of the
most important held before the inter
state commerce commission.
COMMISSIONS Lane heard testimony
IN the case of Schwager & Nettleton
against the Great Northern to ecove
charges made by the railroad for re-
loading lumber destined for Sawyer.
North Dakota, on the 800" line. The
case involves the question Of the right
Of the railroad to charge for reload
ing from its own ears to those of a
foreign line without giving previous
notice.
Several Cases Are Submitted.
The case of the Alaska lumber CON-
pany against the Northern Pacific,
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe was
submitted without the taking of testi-
mony.
The hearing emphasized the fact
that the interstate commerce commits
sion can not recognize any contract
made with any railroad which violates
the published tariff.
The Alaska Lumber company sent a
carload of shingles to Ell Paso, Texas.
While in transit the shippers directed
that it be sent to Denver, and there
delivered to the Santa Fe. The Santa
Fe had agreed that the freight charges
would not exceed the Joint rate by
way of Beatrice, Neb., in which case
the delivering line would be the Rock
Island road.
1t developed at the hearing that the
Santa Fe had no joint rate with the
Burlington and the Northern Pacific,
and the sum of the local rates over
the three lines was greatly in excess
of the through rate by another route.
The Santa Fe was willing to make
good its contract, but was not per-
mitted to do so under the law, else 1t
would be open to the charge Of re-
batting.

WILL HANDLE LATEST STRIKE
Railroads Band Together to Deal With
knottY Question.

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. 16.-Operat-
ing officials of the five railways in
yolved in the strike of the boiler-mak-
ers have held a conference in St. Paul
and arranged an organization to handle
the work of meeting strike condition.
The organization will proceed at once
to fill the vacancies in the ranks caused
by the strike. Reports were received
from all the shop points of the five
railways and these indicate that the
strike is already general. The man.
ayers state, however, that 1t has not so
far caused any inconvenience in the
operation of the roads.

PUGET SOUNDS WHALE AFRAID
Lightning Made It Just Cut Up Aw-
fully.


Lightning is of such rare occurrence
on Puget sound that even the whale
was terribly frightened by the vivid
flashes and crashing peals of thunder
in the recent storm. According to the
officers of the tug Elf, the whale be-
came frantic in a recent storm, thresh-
ing the water into a milky white color
for some distance about by it's huge
tail, and its madness almost de-
molished the boom Of logs which the
tug was towing.
Both Captain Durham and the chief
engineer say this whale is larger than
any hitherto seer by them on the
Sound. 1t is at least 80 feet long, and
its tail was eight feet across at the
tip.

BONAPARTE resigns
LATE RUMOR IN CHICAGO To
THAT EFFECT.
I" Cabinet Officer Says He Finds I'M
munity Baths Are Too Many and the
Administrators Campaign Against
Railroads Must FalI-He's Disap-
pointed Because His Hands are Tied.

Rumor that Attorney General Bona,
parties resignation will shortly be AN.
nounced has gained currency in Chi.
cago on information from sources
which give 1t almost official authen.
ITCHY. The resignation is said to be
impending because of a seeming sud.
den reversal in the policy of the admin.
~lstration In its frequently announced
determination to make relentless war
upon the trusts.
h Standard Oil case Is said to be
what raised the issue between Bona
parte and a higher power which must
nave an inevitable climax in retire
ment of the former.
The first sign Of the breach between
Bonaparte and the administration was
the postponement of the
ment of the departments decision in
the question of granting immunity to
the Chicago & Alton Railway company
because of that roads extending aid
to the government in securing the CON
viction of the Standard OIL company,
and the subsequent inhiction of the
fine Of $29,O00.0 00 by Judge Lands.
According to disclosures Just made
Mr.. Bonaparte found that the then dis
trict attorney, Charles B.. Morrison,
acting for the department of Justice,
promised immunity to the railroad.
While the present attorney general
regards this as a pardonable exigency
Of that prosecution, 1t is rumored he
was amazed to find that immunity had
also been promised in every other
case against the same company, where
other railroads were equally culpable
with the oil company.
Rebate Abuses Dropped.
This would have received Mr.. Bona
parties condemnation as an extra as
sumption of judicial power by the de-
partment Of which he is now the head,
but It is said that he also found that
not only had immunity been granted
half a dozen big trunk lines which had
resorted to rebate abuses with the
Standard Oil company and innumer-
able other favored shippers for years,
tut to scores of high railroad officials,
and this wholesale granting Of i'm
muniiy the preceding administration
Of the department had practically tied
the hands Of the government so that
its wholesale trust busting" campaign
must fail.
These discoveries amazed the attor-
ney general. He was reluctant to be-
lieve that his predecessor, acting
through United States Attorney Nor
rison. had me~taphorically released a
whole school of whales to catch a por-
poise, with the knowledge and consent
Of the administration.
He investigated, according to re-
port, and learned that his predeces-
had acted advisedly with the full
consent of the highest powers.
