Violating the Law.
Every one Of these saloon men
are violating the Law Just as much
as Is Cosgrove. whose arrest on
the complaint Of a tool Of the
whisky ring was made on Saturday
night
So far as the police know Cos
grove Is one OF the most reputable
hotel men In this city No com.
plaIxs have ever been made to the
police department regarding the
conduct Of his hotel SarrOom- On
the other hand. many Of the men
20 whom the council has granted
granted licenses in the past have
born and bear bad regulations.
The license committee Of the
council Is holding up cosgrove's IL
ccnse apparently because the latter
has for a long time been a friend
OF MAYOR Moore, and was one OF
his stauncheef supporters during
the last campaign. An attempt was
made TO show. through the suhsl-
dlzed evening organ Of the saloon
men. that Mayor Moore had been
n party TO a holdap on the part OF
CosKrove in the matter OF securing
more rent from a tenant in the
block of which Cosgrove was les
see. This charge. so far as IL at
fected either Mayor Moore or Cos
grove. was exploded. and the latest
action. that OF causing Cosgroye's
arrest. is taken by the whisky ring
in the hope that 81 may induce
Mayor Moore 20 cease his efforts
towards improving saloon condi-
tons In Seattle.
The license committee OF the city
council this afternoon again post
poned the petition OF Cosgrove for
a renewal Of his license This ae-
tons follows the committees
system Of continual postponement,
intended to freeze Cosgrove out,
while the prosecuting attorney pro-
cecds against him for operating
without a license.
The committee unhesitaungly
renewed the license Of Councilman
Frank T. Mullen for the Abbot bar,
Third and Pike. and for Council
man Arnold zbinden at the Palace
Hotel Bar Other renewals asked
for today were granted, although
Cosgrove's petition has been In for
a month without being considered.

DECISIONS ON RATES.
Recent Rulings Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission.

On a complaint of the Dallas CTex)
freight bureau, charging that the rates
from certain coal mines in Indian Terri
to Dallas over the Gulf, Colorado and
Santa Fee and other roads had been in
creased from S1.25 to $3.50 per ton on
slack coal and from $1.S5 to s.. 10 per ton
on mine run coal the interstate commerce
commission has decided that in the future
the rates from the mines should not ex-
coed $1.9O on mine run lump coal and 81. 40
on slack coal. No reparation was allowed.
In the case of the Stowe-Fuller Com
pany against the Pennsylvania and Balti-
more and Ohio railroads the commission
held there is nothing to justify difference
In rates on shipments OF brick, which
are made of the same material, come out
of the same kiln, are nearly alike in color.
and which are the same size and weight.
The complaint objected TO the differences
in the carriers rates on fire, building and
paving brick from Empire. Strasburg and
other points In Ohio to New York city.
Stations upon the Kansas City Southern
Railway Company are grouped in terri
tories for the purpose of fixing rates to
various points in Texas and the transfer
OF Silcam Springs. Ark, from the Little
Rock territory to the Kansas city terri
tory according to complaint OF the
Desel-Boettcher Company, resulted in an
advance of the rates on apples by the car
load from 40 cents to IS cents per 100
pounds from Sloan Springs to Houston,
Texas The commission holds that group
rates must of necessity result in a certain
amount of discrimination and that the
change IN this case did not result In undue
discrimination"
