TEXAS FIGHTS
 HIGHER RATES
The State Commission Ap= plies to Interstate Com.
A Protest Against Action of the SOuth-Western Traffic Association.

Washington, Aug. 1O.-The Texas railroad commission today filed a formal complaint with the interstate commerce commission against sixty seven railroads and other common car riers. alleging conspiracy on the part of the defendant through the south western traffic association for the sup pressiOn of competition and restraint trade in the recent increasing freight rates to common points in Texas.
 The commission will forward a mo- tice of the complaint to all carriers involved and give them fifteen days to reply, the usual period allowed for an- swering a complaint being twenty days The commission will expedite the case as much as possible on ac- count of its wide spread importance.
 The complaint is signed by Allison Mayfield chairman of the Texas com mission, with R. T. Davidson, attorney general. and Claud POllard( assistant attorney general countersigning the paper The complaint u1lertakes to compare the alleged cost of the main tainence and operation of railroads with the actual cost and the claimed indebtedness, which is supposed tC justify the increase, with the actual indebtedness. The Texas railroad com mission, it appears, appraised the cost of the construction and operation of the roads as well as the actual in debtedness upon which rates may be fairly based.
 Eight freight schedules which have recently been filed with the commis- sion are made the basis of the com plaint and all are claimed to have been brought about by an unlawful agreement between the defendant car riers and the Southwestern traffic as sociation, of which they are members, or whose members represent, through power of attorney, those who are not.
 It declares that the increased rates fall primarily upon commodities by prime utility and daily necessity; that they seriously disturb trade relations causing a loss of shippers and to the consuming public an increased tax, so far as Texas alone is concerned, to the amount of s2.655,OOO
 Senator Culberson was activity asso- ciated with the representatives of the Texas railroad commission in framing this complaint, having come here from his home with Chairman Mayfield and assistant Attorney General Pollard to confer with the members of the inter state commerce commission upon the proper course to pursue in order to Ne- feat the proposed increase. The com mission is asked to proceed against the defendant carriers on it's own be- IT. as representatives in this case that the commission will not have authority to fix rates to take the place of those

GOVERNMENT NOT INTERFERING

Ottawa, Aug. 1O.-The labor depart ment reports that at present no gov ernment interference in the Canadian Pacific strike is contemplated. Under the provisions of the LamieuX act. there can be no sympathetic strike by other unions until the grievance of the first has been stated and inquiry has been made by a board of investigation. The only case in which further num- Der of Canadian Pacific employees might now go on strike is in conse- quence of the finding of a board ap- pointed last May in the application of the operators union to investigate the alleged wrongful dismissal of an operator. Medantic, at Quebec It is understood that the board is now ready to report, and that the finding will be in favor of the union.
 The Canadian Pacific railroad will accept the award and consequently a strike of the operators cannot take place on that score.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 1O.-From the lips of numerous callers from va rious parts of the country and letters received by Wm. J. Bryan today, are heard gratifying reports regarding the political outlook affecting his candidacy.

COMPLICATIONS ARISE
 IN THAW BANKRUPTCY
The Creditors Have Right to Name the Trustee.

Pittsburg, Aug. 1O.-There is a proh- ability that some New York man may soon succeed Detective Roger O'Meara, now serving as receiver and custodian of the estate of Harry Kendall Thaw. The proposition is much complicated and the case is most generally dis cussed in Pittsburg tonight This $ based upon the provisions of the state bankruptcy law. It is admitted Ty all having a knowledge of the law that the creditors have the right at their first meeting to elect a trustee to take charge of all property of the pe- titioner in bankruptcy and that such trustee immediately supersedes any receiver previously appointed by any other authority. Acting upon this pro- vision it is surmised that the creditors, majority of whom are recidents of New York, are likely to make a con certed move for one of their own sell ectiOn to act as trustee.
 A fierce legal fight, however, is eX- pected because of reports from New York that should an attempt be made to bring ThaW here District Attorney Jerome would oppose any such move, fearing if Thaw once were removed from the jurisdiction of New York courts there would be trouble in hay ing him returned to that Jurisdiction. Under the bankruptcy law, should the referee call for Thaw and he failed to appear. such failure would constitute contempt. Hence the prospect of a clash between state and federal authorities.

Detectives Employed to Keep an Eye on the
 Movements of Strikers
The Question of the Possibility Sympathetic Strikes Without a Violation of the Law is Now Under Consideration.

Winnipeg. Aug. 1O.-The Canadian Pacific railroad today built a second high fence around its shops and prop erty. General Manager Bury has wired Montreal to have 1000 mechan- ics forwarded aJ once, if possible.
 It is stated that the men employed in Canadian Pacific stores will walk out tomorrow morning in sympathy with the strikers. The men. it is said, object to issuing stores to strike breakers.
 The company has imported twenty four Thiel and Pinkerton detectives to watch the movements of the strikers in the west. Wm. Whyte, second vice president, left Vancouver tonight for Winnipeg. The men look to him to effect a settlement. Whyte issued a statement today denying that the Can adian Pacific is importing strike breakers from the United States to replace the strikers. If skilled unem- ployed machinists in the United States voluntarily sought work in Canada that was their own affair. Another high official of the company pointed out that the machinists who walked out had by their own actions deprived themselves of any claims to share the benefits of the Canadian Pacific rail- road pension system.
 Reports from points in the west in- dicate that the rolling stock is begin ming to feel the strain of the strike.
 IL is pointed out by the labor depart ment that a sympathetic strike by other railroad mems unions in aidzei

MARKET IRREGULAR
 BUT PRICES GAINED
The Nervousness Affected Stock Which Have Been Dormant.

New York, Aug. 10.-The tone of the stock market was nervous and irregu- lar at times today but the sweep broadened the demand sufficient to dominate the upward course of prices in spite of some setbacks and some obstacles that opposed.
 Within an hour after the opening there was a break in prices that ap- preached the violence of last Friday The same stocks, American Smelling and National Lead were conspicuous features in this break. which was sup posed to be due to a phase of the sen sational advertising campaign to at tract speculative interest in the mar ket now being waged by a Boston speculator. The day was notable for the usually dormant stocks which awakened into activity.

JAPANESE POACHERS
 SENTENCED 10 DEATH
Their Fatal Assault on Russian Prison Guard.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 10.-SiX Japan csc condemned to death at NikOlayevsk for attacking prison guards have ap- pealed their case to the supreme mili- tary tribunal at St Petersburg.

 While the troops were conveying the prisoners through the streets of NikO- Iavesk, Japanese sailors assaulted the soldiers with stones and wounded sev- eral Of them.
 The town was under martial law and the Japanese were therefore tried by a military district court, six of the thirty-seven prisoners being condemn ed to death. The Japanese embassy has not protested in regard to the sen tences handed down by the military court since the case was purely within Russian jurisdiction.
 Russian and Japan are negotiating a sealing convention similar to the Russo American and Russo-British conventions.
