THAV COMES IN
 THE NICK OF TIME
GREAT DESTRUCTION OF TELE- PHONE AND TELEGRAPH WIRES IS NARROWLY INVERTED IN THE VICINITY OF CHICAGO.

Chicago, March 1--Record- breaking de- struction of telephone and telegraph prop erty was averted today by narrow mar gin Sleet that covered wires and poles 25 to 50 miles north west and south of Chicago and 100 to 15O miles east was melted during the day by a few degrees rise in temperature just in the nick of time. Ice-coated lines. sagging heavily, had already begun to snap to pieces or topple to the ground along lines of glis- tening over-weighted poles.
 The worst damage is east of this city and west of Fort Wayne, Ind.
 Trains on the Lake Shore and Michigan Central railway suffered particularly. In one instance a stretch of nearly mile of poles bearing dozens of important cir cults to New York and other eastern cities were down in tangled mass of wreck age with the mercury ascending trifie. The miles of sleet disappeared almost as if by magic. Tonight telegraph officials had restored facilities to a basis adequate for Sunday night traffic, and hoped to be able to care for brokerage and other bus mess tomorrow without delay.

THE COMMISSION
 OPPOSES MEASURE
 ts Senator FuIton's Bill Makes Hardship on Roads ONE SHIPPERS POWER The Interstate Commerce Commission
ONE SHIPPERS POWER
The Interstate Commerce Commission Holds That Complaint of One Man Against Rate Advance Should
 Not Hold Up Charges.

Washington, March 1.-Responding to letter of inquiry from the inter- state commerce committee of the Sen ate, the interstate commerce commits sion has written a letter taking a posi- ton in opposition to Senator Fulton's bill prohibiting railroad companies from advancing rates in the face of a protest made by a shipper until the commission shall have passed on the reasonableness of the increase.
 ITO give to the protest of single shipper the effect of preventing the ad- vance of any rate until the reasonable ness of that advance was affirmatively determined by the commission" says the letter, would establish a hard ana fast rule of doubtful fairness to the railroads and questionable advantage to the public. Under existing condi- tions we are of the opinion that it would be unwise to adopt the arbitrary limitation which this bill proposes whatever may be found desirable oc necessary in this regard in the future"
 The commission also finds an ob-
 jection to the bill in a possibility of increased burdens upon the commission. On this point they say:
 'If every proposed advance had to
 be investigated by the commission and
 officially sanctioned before it could take effect, the number of cases to be considered would presumably be SD great as to render their prompt disposi- ton almost impossible. In instances of justifable increase the necessary delay resulting from the probable vol ume of cases would work injustice to the carriers. Until conditions becom ) more stable and the substantive provis- ions of the act are more completely observed in railway tariffs and prac- tice we entertain the belief that wider latitude of discretion on the part ,f the carriers than this measure allowed should be permitted"
 The commission also suggests as a possible effect of the bill the preven : ton of voluntary reductions of rates. "If," they said. mo rate could be in : creased without the approval of the commission after affirmative showing by the carrier it might happen that many reductions now voluntarily ac- corded would not be made

TORPEDO FLOTILLA
 ARRIVES AT CALLAO
THE PANTHER OF THE BATTLE SHIP FLEET STOPS TO ROUND
 UP DESERTERs WHO FAILED TO REPORT FOR DUTY SATURDAY..

Callao, March 1.-The American torpedo boat fotilla, which left Talcahuano on February 25, arrived here today. The com mander of the flotilla, Lieut.. H. l. Cone, declared that throughout the voyage, 15U0 knots, the weather was fine and con- ditons was such that good time to the Peruvian port was possible. The destroy CTS arrived in splendid condition, not a hitch having occurred.
 Lieutenant Cone speaks highly of the hospitality received at the hands of the Chileans, and was particularly pleased with the services rendered by Lieutenant Commander Razas of the Chilean navy, who acted in the capacity of pilot through the inner passage from Punta Arenas to Talcahuano.
 It Is expected that the fleet will remain here until March g, sailing on that date for Panama.
 The Panther did not leave with the bat tleshps, which sailed yesterday, being or dered to remain at the port for number of sailors who were missing at the time of the fleets departure. It is expected that these will be rounded up, as meas ures have been taken to keep careful watch for the men who failed to report for duty
 As a matter of fact, these number few. and in all the number of deserters at the various ports at which the fleet touched is minimum.
 Prior to the departure of the battle ships, 7M mail bags which had just ar- rived were put aboard the ships. Pres- dent Pardo presented to each of the ad- mirals handsomely bound book on Peru.

PLAN SURPRISE
 FOR BOB EVANS
The Title of Vice Admiral May Be Re. established By Congress-Presi-
 dent Recommends Grade.

Washington March 1.-In a quiet way naval officers in Washington are en- deavoring to arrange most agreeable surprise for Admiral Evans when the battleship fleet under his command sails through the Golden Gate and com i pletes the Pacific cruise.
 It is proposed to greet the rear ad- miral with commission as vice ad- miral of the American navy. Of course. the success of this undertaking de- bends upon Congress, but the President has done his part in making a proper recommendation to that body for the re-establishment of that naval grade and it is not doubted that Congress can be induced to act upon the recommen- dation in season to ensure the issue of Admiral Evans commission before the completion of the present cruise so that he may bear the title of vice admiral for the few months that vii, intervene between his arrival at San Francisco and his retirement from ac. tive service.

NEGROES GIVE TROUBLE. Friends of the Condemned Man Throw
 Stones at Police.

St. George, B. w. l., March 1.-When the negro Benjamin, who was sentenced yesterday to 12 years Imprisonment for a murderous assault last year on Norman Lockhart, colonial treasurer, and comp troller of customs, was being removed from jail today, the blacks gathered around him in threatening manner and with evidences of great excitement in- weighed against the severity of his sen- tence.
 They threw stones at the armed police men who were escorting the condemned man. Governor Williams, who was pres ent, endeavoring to pacify the crowd, was struck by black. This so enraged one of the police that he started to drive his bayonet through the governors as- sailant, but he wss restrained.
 Many other arrests resulted and order finally was restored. One man was slight ly wounded. British man-of-war ar rived here shortly after the occurrence.

New York, Oct. 26.-The report .that
Mrs. Katherine Gethenen Braker was
to be called as witness in the trial

just before the panic, that the bank
was all loaded up, with little call
money outstanding. On October 5 he
said Otto Heinze and company tried
to borrow $126. 900 from the bank and
failed to get 1t. On October 16 f..
Augustus Heinze called to see Morse,
and latter q check for $126,000 drawn
by Morse and cashed at the Mercan-
