only matter I knew OF, and about which
had any apprehension. and which might
be referred TO in your coming message
to Congress. is that regarding the Inter
state Commerce Commission, and what
the attitude Of the railroads should be

This letter TO me was crossed by one
from me, which reads as follows:
Strictly personal.
Nov 80. 1901
My Dear Mr.. Hartman. Mr.. Loeb
tells me that you called me uD to-day on
the telephone and recalled my letter 20
you OF October "A. in which I spoke to you
Of a desire 10 see yOa before sending in
my message, as ! wanted TO 80 over with
you certain governmental matters, and
you added that you had heard that I had
referred TO the Interstate Commerce Com
mission; that yod regretted this and
wished / had left it out. In writing 20 you
I had in view. especially. certain matters
connected with currency legislation and
had not thought or discussing railroad
matters with you. However, II il had 0c-
CURED 70 me, I should have been de-
lighted 20 do 50. but II you remember
when you were down here both you and I
were so interested I'm certain of the New
York political developments that I hardly.
II az all. touched on governmental mat
ters
Talked Of Little Else.
Let me repeat that did not have this
question in mind when I asked you 10
come down. but that / should most glad
Iy have talked Il over with you II it had
occurred to me 10 DO so; but as a matter
OF fact, as you viii remember, when you
did come down 10 see me you and l were
both so enge ged In the New York political
situation that We talked OF little else; and
finally that the position I have taken has
not been taken lightly, but after thinking
over the matter and looking at 81 from
different standpoints for at least two
years. and after the most careful con-
sultation with Morton. Taft, Moody,
Knox, and Root as 20 the exact phraseoi-
ogy I should use.
ron December . he wrote me the fol-
lowing letter on the same subject:
December ., 1904.
Dear Mr. President: Thank you for
your favor Of the seth. Il was natural
for me 20 suppose that railroad matters
would be included in any discussion you
and I might have before writing your
message.
I beg that you viii pardon me for not

board this morning indicated that Ruthrauff's taking educational matters in Tucson entirely in his own hand did not meet with their approval, even after he had offered his misconcep- tion of the law as an eItenuating cir cumstance.
 Though there was no evidence this morning of the personal feeling be- tween Long and Ruthrauff during the hearing, there was no warm greeting of friendly handshake when the two gentlemen came together in the board meeting.
 Should the charges against Ruth rauff be sustained, the board has two courses open: One is to revoke his territorial certificate, which would
 mean his forced resignation as super
 intendent of the Tucson schools. Tn
 other is to administer a repriman and let him go on a promise to sin no more.
 Ruthrauff maintains that he has committed no grievons error, and that what he did was for the best inter- ests of the school cbildren of Tucson. Of this he tried to convince the board this morning.
 ifis members of the board of eGIca- ton present were the following: Gov. Kibbey, Superintendent Long. 1'errito- rial Treasurer Kirkland. President Babcock q the University of Arizona, Principal ]. D. Iloper Of he Mesa schools, Principal Blount of the Phoe- nix Higa School and Principal Mat thews of the Tempe Normal Princi- pal Taylor of the Flagstaff Normal was the only member absent

BITTER FEELING IS
 STIRRED BY CASE
(Paoenix Democrat.)

Bitter feeling, which has estranged Superintendent of Public Instruction Long and w. N. Ruthrauff, principal Of the Tucson schools, found its way into official channels when the terri torial board of education called Ruth rauff before them this morning to answer charges filed by Superintend. ent Long.
 Long recently went to Tucson, and while there gathered data on which to charge Ruthranff with having fall ed to use text books provided by the board in the Tucson schools and to introduce others not provided for by the board.
 Following so closely on the session in Phoenix fair week, when Ruthrauff joined with others in bitter attack on Long, going to the extent of intro ducing resolutions. asking Governor Kibbey to remove Long, the charges made by Long against Ruthrauff have

 Not only did Long charge that Ruth rauff consulted only his own wishes and judgment when fixing the books to be used in the Tucson schools, but that the result of his action is to greatly increase the cost to Tucson parents for school books
 So many were the complaints made to Long and other territorial officials that Tucson book dealers were charg- ing exorbitant prices. that United States Attorney Alexander had the federal grand jury in Tucson make an investigation. Indictments were found against several
 Ruthrauff was on the carpet before the board of education this morning explaining and answering questions.

Nebraska 2.cent Rate Real Thing.

Lincoln. Neb.-Any charge by rail-
road company in excess of cents a
mile for passenger fare for points in
Nebraska. no matter whether the inter
mediate line may be wholly within the
state or not, is unlawful, according to
an opinion to-day by Attorney General
Thompson. Since the 2-cent passen
ger fare law went into effect, Attorney
General Thompson received a com
plant from a Lexington, Nebraska,
man, who said the Union Pacific agent
refused to sell him a ticket to Sidney.
Nebraska, for less than cents mile
because the road in going from Lexing-
ton to Sidney ran for n short distance
in Colorado, making 1t interstate traf-
fic. The attorney general said he was
advised that the Burlington was follow
ing the same policy where the road
runs partly in Kansas. Attorney Gen
eral Thompson said he had precedent
for his ruling in a Pennsylvania case
and added:
II am OF the belief that any one who
offers to pay 2 cents n mile between
points in Nebraska and Is refused
transportation at that rate, will have
valid cause of action against the
railroad company so refusing, regard
less of whether It's lines are entirely
within his state or not ANY one on
board train who tenders fare at 8
cents mile and who is put off will
nave good grounds for damage suit. :"
