WITH AN
OIL WELL

TAMPICO (Mexico), Nov 13.--
The Mexican government has given
UP the task of trying to control the
enormous flow Of the great oil geyser
in the San Geronimo field seventy
five miles southeast Of here. The 500
federal soldiers who have been em-
p1ayed in the futile work for several
weeks sailed today for Vera Cruz on
the government gunboats Zarragoza
and Morelos.
A new phase Of this phenomenal
oil eruption Is the poisonous gases
which are thrown off. These gases
have caused the death of a number
Of workmen. One of the peculiar eff
fects of these gases Is injury to the
eyes. A physician reports that he
attended $50 people whose eyes were
badly injured. some OF them being
swollen to such an extent that they
were entirely closed.
All the soldiers who are returning
from there were more or less affected

Lake Tamiahua, into which the

FREIGHT
RATES To
Climb Up

CHICAGO, Nov 13.--It has been
settled definitely that the much talk
ed of 10 per cent increase OF trans
continental commodity rates will be-
come effective January1, but will be
accompanied BY a reduction In class
rates.
While the new tariffs have not yet
been made public, the demand for in
formation from shippers and traffic
bureaus has been so urgent and per-
sistent that some of the lines are said
to have yielded and to have per-
mitted certain of the figures to be
known. The increase will affect more
than eighty commodities, from iron
ore to mustard seed
In the opinion Of many traffic men
the new tariff will have the effect OF
gaining greater volume of business
for the steamship lines, especially as
the canned goods and dried fruit
shippers are opposed to the increase
of 10 per cent over the existing tariff
Iron ore rates will be raised
cents hundred pounds, and leather,
which is now $1.O5 and $1.20 on the
various assortments, will be raised
to $1.20 and $40 hundred
pounds.
Glass rates between Chicago and
the Pacific coast will be materially
reduced. The first four classes be.
tween New York and seaboard com
mon points and the Pacific coast viii
be the same east and west bound.
The increase, it is said, on practi.
cally all the commodities will amount
to about the brokerage paid eastern
commission men for disposing Of
their products.
