CARRIERS DISPOSED
TO HELP SHIPPERS
WESTERN LINES FILE UNIQUE
TARIFFS WITH INTERSTATE
COMMISSION.

Washington, Dec 25.-By special
permission of the interstate commerce
commission the Chicago & Eastern
Illinois railroad for itself and the Rock
Island and Frisco lines, will file with
the commission in a few days one of
the most remarkable freight tariffs
ever constructed by an interstate car
rier. The proposed tariff will be a
compilation of the local, joint and
proportional rates ON lumber and fum-
Der products in car loads from vari-
0ua points in the middle west and
south to other points in the middle
west and the east and Canada
Contained in the tariff is a. nate by
the Chicago & Eastern illinois which
indicates the purpose ON the part of
the carriers Interested In the tariff to
aid shippers in ats use. Following is
fhe note:
, In the publication Of this tariff it
is the desire of these companies to
place in the hands of their Shippers
and connections clear and complete in
formation as to lumber rates, not only
from the gateways from which these
companies operate, but in a special
section provide rates to particular
gateways SO that persons using this
issue will have in one tariff complete
information concerning rates from the
poTnt of origin of the lumber to the
f1nal destination of the consignment
In the entire history of the inter
state commerce commission no such
tariff as this has been filed. 1t is re-
garded as unique and as indicating
disposition on the part OF carriers to
come into closer relations with ship
pers in order that the interests of
both may be the better subseryed.

PRISE OF LAWYERS.

Flushing, N Y Dec. 25.-With the
exception of one or two witnesses
who will be heard on miner points,
the states case against Thornton J.
Hams is practically closed. The de.
Tense will outline its case to the jury
Immediately after the prosecution
rests. When the defendant returned
to the Long Island jail last night he
knew all the vital evidence the prose
cution had obtained to prove its
charge that he was one of the prin-
cipals in the killing OF Annis.
Before leaving court, Hams de-
clared that he felt his acauittai was
only matter of days.
District Attorney Darrin surprised
Hams counsel by calling Henry l..
Jesperson, former real estate agent,
whom the defense had planned to
call as one of their principal witness
es. Jesperson's testimony developed
many points favorable TO the defend
ant He said he had several confer
ences with Hams over the waterfront
property at DouglastOp, near Bay
Side and that Hams had made an
appointment with his partner about
some property of the Bay Side Yacht
club. Jesperson further stated that
Hams had postponed the real estate
negotiations because of the illness Of
his brother. Lawyers for Hams were
delighted at Jesperson's testimony.

two boys were as near death as it is

two others were seriously affected.
Prosecutions will be made against the

Washington, Dec. 25-The tariff
trainers met again yesterday to con-
tinue the work of preparing the tariff
bill. While protection to the indus
tries which must compete with cheap
labor abroad will be the keynote Of
the revised tariff, much consideration
will be given questions of raising suffi-
cient revenue for the government. The
subcommittee of the house ways and
means committee is wasting no time
in drawing UP the new bin and viii re-
sumo daily meetings Monday. The
revenue feature involves more difficult
problems than any other phases of the
tariff revision question 1t is claimed
by some that the government has been
deprived of millions of dollars of rev.

ley tariff because or the numerous
changes made in the bill after it
passed the house. These changes
were made principally in the wording
of the bill rather than in the rates of
duty. 1t is freely said that numerous
large interests that will be affected by
the new tariff law as il will be report
ed to the house will make strong
fight when the bill reaches the senate.
In this case, it is understood that
President-elect Taft will exert every
influence to have the bill go through

P|TTSBURG WATTS
FOR ANOTHER RAID
MORE SENSATIONAL ARRESTS or
coUNcILMEN AND BUSINESS
MEN IN SIGHT.
WARRANTS IS
SUED-WEALTHY MEN FINANCE
PROSECUTIONS.

PittSburg, Pa. Dec 25.-Whlle the
graft scandal of Pittsburg has been
halted in so far as the making of adj
ditional arrests is concerned, it is init
mated and believed this is only tenn
porary.
That at least $4,000 was paid
councilmen for the selection of certain
banks as repositories for the city's
funds has been almost positively es-
tablished through evidence submitted
land statements furnished by the vot-
|ers' league and detectives employed
by the league to give this city mu-
|nicipal housekeeping. Whether all
the banks selected as repositories con
ltributed to this fund has not been es-
Itablished The officers of but one
bank have so far been arrested and
they are charged with the payment OF
only $17,500 of the alleged bribery
fund. That other bankers are to be
arrested is almost positively stated by
those back of the probe.
Apparently both the prosecution and
the defense, officially and unofficialIy
known, are getting their second
wind following sensational develop
ments.
1t is said the efforts of the investi-
gators will now be directed toward
Iothers implicated in the alleged cor
ruption as the seven councilmen and
two former bankers, arrested Monday
might, have been held for court.
One of the probers stated yesterday
that quick action was necessary as
undoubtedly other persons guilty of
grating were frightened and making
|endeavors to eliminate any trace OF
their participation
Rumors are being circulated that a
|second raid will soon be made against
|councilmen and business men who are
The Voters league of Pittsburg is saio
to have prepared twenty-five warrants
for the arrest of these persons.
Already plans are on foot to give
the nine defendants court trial as
soon as possible. 1t is believed thai
District Attorney Blakeley, who has
taken charge of the matter now, will
present the cases to the grand jury
early next month. By the latter part
of February it is expected the court
trials will be under way.
1t is probable there will not be a
councilmanic investigation of the scan
ldal. According to a leading independ
ent member of the council such an in
lyestigation would give no substantial
results and the consensus of opinior
is that the councils. as a body should
do nothing in the matter but allow the
affair to take it's course in the courts
] According to statement by mem
Der of the Voters league, a great
number of prominent and wealthy
Pittsburgers have hurried to the front
to offer any assistance in making the
clean up complete. The Voters
league depends on donations of money
to carry On its work and numerous
wealthy citizens have told it to "gc

| 1t is recognized that the scandal will
have potent effect ON the coming
city election next February Every fac
ton of politics is stirred to the utmost

by prospective candidates that they

representations.
China is sensitive on the subject of
an equal diplomatic footing with Ja-
pan, especially since the episode of
the visit of the American battle ships
at Annoy. Only half the American
