REPORT ON THE
RAILROAD LAW
Views of Minority Presented
in the Senate by ElkinS
of West Virginia.
Figures Covering a Period Of Thirty.
seven Years Show a Big Reduc-
ton in Rates-Service Much
More Efficiently Organized.

Washington.-Senator Elkins OF
West Virginia has just completed and
filed in the senate his minority report
on the railroad rate law. 1t presents
a comprehensive history Of the
economic development of American
railroads, together with exhaustive
ly decreasing freight and passenger
rate, and the relation between such
rates and the price OF commodities
and cost of labor.
1.-THE average passenger rate" says
tie report, advanced slightly from
1870 to 1880. During the next twenty
four years there was a decline
amounting to 1855 per cent Of the
average for 1880. The net decline
from 1870 to 1890 averaged 1914 per
cent. During the years from 1870 to
1904, the rate for the earlier year be-
ing about two and a half times of the
latter and the net savings to the ship.
pers averaged 11.09 mills per ton
mile"
The report says that the cost OF
transportation in 1904 was nearly two
billion dollars less than it would have
been had the rates for 1870 still pre-
vailed.
The passenger business of 1904 ex-
ceeded that of 1890 by more than rs
per cent, while the freight rate was
1926 per cent. in comparison with the
Increase in wages of railroad en-
ployes from IN average wage OF
$567.25 in 1900 to $630.S0 in 1904. The
report says that the service in 1904
was so much more efficiently organ
lied that the labor contributed by the
average employe accomplished %
per cent more in the movement of
passengers and "a per cent more in
the movement of freight than in 1880.
The report gives the total railway
capitalization June 80, 1904, as $780,
III, 794, 07S, and says this amount is
4.74 per cent less than the CONNER
cial value of the railways, as esti-
mated by the census bureau.

JEROME is MERClLESS.
Places Mrs. Evelyn Thaw Under a
Terrible Ordeal.

New York.--Under the stress OF
cross-examination in which District
Attorney Jerome gave no quarter, Mrs,
Evelyn Nesbit Thaw broke down
Thursday upon the witness stand.
With binding tears burning their way
down cheeks which, from ashen white,
had flushed to crimson, she admitted
that after her first experience with
Stanford White her relations with the
architect continued several months.
There were other confessions also,
which, while damaging to her own
character, accentuated all the more
the terrible personal sacrifice she is
making in the effort to save her hus.
band from the electric chair. The case
has progressed to the point where the
defendant has been all but lost sSgnt
of. His girl-wife is the figure about
whom the storm lashes. She 1t is
whose life is being searched out and
who is held up to scorn by the pro-
secution.

LOST IN STEAMER WRECK
Mail Boat Weathers Severe Hurricane
Then Misses Channel and Goes to
Pieces in Sight of Land.

London.--The worst disaster fol-
many years in the history Of the busy
cross-channel traffic between England
and the continent occurred during a
violent gale shortly before 6 o'clock
Thursday morning, when the Rotter.
dam mail steamer Berlin, from Har.
WITCH to Hook of Holland, having sat.
isfactorily %weathered the hurricane,
was wrecked as she was entering
port. Altogether 143 persons are
known to have persisted.
The terrific seas broke up the
steamer with such awful suddenness
that all attempts to save life appear
to have been utterly hopeless.
A few of the survivors chung to the
wreck while the life boat crews made
heroic efforts to reach them, but in
vain, and one by n they dropped off
into the water and were drowned.

Saturdays proceedings in the trial of
Steve Adams, charged with the MUIR
der of a man named Tyler In the
wilds of the st. Joe country, and in
volving the murder of Ex-Governor
S~teunenberg, were the reading of the

examination of Warden Whitney of
the Idaho ~penitentiary. Mr.. Whitney
was questioned chiefly with regard to
the disposition Of Adams while the
prisoner was under his care, who had
access to him and who was denied
access. A searching cross-examina.
ton followed as to the reason why
Adams was kept in the penitentiary
when there was no charge against
him and after he had not been in
dicted by the grand jury.
Adams confession states that he
joined the Western Federation of
Miners at Cripple Creek; that he
knew Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone;
that Pettibone told him to 60 to
idaho and see Simpkins-that they
wanted to "get" S%teunenberg; that
