PENNSYLVANIA DEFENDANT
IN SOUTHERN RATE CASE.
Voluntarily Assumes Role to
Test Matter for Southern Roads.

According to u statement by a repre-
sentative of the Pennsylvania that road
is deeply interested in the matter of a
readjustment of rates south of the Ohio
River, which has been the subject of
a hearing before Commissioner Prouty
of the interstate commission.
Chicago shippers Joined with those
of Cincinnati In the complaint made
to the commission. and 1t therefore be-
comes necessary for one of the roads
entering Chicago to become a defen-
dant. The Pennsylvania was selected.
The normal basis of rates of that road
from Chicago to Cincinnati ranges from
40 cents first class to IL cents sixth
class, but when the complaint was
originally filed against rates to the
South these Chicago-Cincinnati rates
We're scaled down from 80 cents first
class to 10 cents sixth class. The lines
from Cincinnati south have made a
determined fight to disprove the claim
that present rates are unjust and dis
criminatory.

END TO COPPER co.
PROMISES MELON CUTTING.
Tennessee Concern May Dis
tribute Cash and Stock.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3O.-The incorpora-
ton in New Jersey yesterday of the
Tennessee Chemical and S%ulphuric Acid
Company. with $40. oOO, 900 capital stock
and $1,000, 900 bonds, interested Wall
Street because of widely disseminated
tips of a coming melon in Tennessee
Copper, based on it's recently completed
plant for the manufacture of sulphuric
acid.
Since the sulphuric acid plant has
been completed the Street has been
deluged with tips of a pool organized
by the controlling interest. which, 1t
was said, intended to put the stock
away up on the strength of the success
of the acid plant. The tip was widely
circulated last week that the stock
would go to 60. 1t closed yesterday at
46H.
One of the bases of the promised
rise was the rumor of a melon to come
to the stockholders in the shape OF
some sort of distribution of the capital
of the acid plant.
Last week it was limited in the course
of the pools campaign in the stock
that the company would distribute 60
per cent in a stock dividend. Yester-
day the formation of the Jersey COM
pany gave rise to the belief that the
/. melon cutting was one step nearer

Have Team Whose Achieve
ments on the Alleys Win Adj
miratiOn of Mere Man.

The Ladies' Bowling Club of the Gott-
fried Kruger Association Is now busy
for the winter season. Among its
membership are many good bowlers,
and it is not unusual for scores above
the 1S0-mark to be credited to the va
rious members when they bowl on the
Belmont avenue alleys.
Although the auxiliary has been in
existence for some time it was only a
year ago when the women decided to
organize a bowling club. Their team OF
fifteen Is equal and perhaps superior to
many mems bowling teams.
Bowling is o all that is engaged In
by the women, for they rave entertain
ments, and attend all the social events
of the Kruegers, and conclude their
days pleasure with a kaffee llatsch.
Mrs. August Fink is president of the
club, Mrs. John Oeler secretary, and
Mrs. Martin Emete treasurer. .

Acres, Which City May Get
for 100000.

Next Thursday the Board of Works
will make a tour of inspection to Orion
Park comprising 2,4S0 acres in the
Pequannock watershed, upon which the
chief engineer has obtained IN option,
to thoroughly the property and
pass on the advisability of getting it
for the city.
The proposed addition to the water
shed Is situated about one mile from
the Clinton reservoir and Is almost en-
tirely in the watershed. There is a
lake of about $40 acres in the property,
which can be bought for $4,000, The
chief engineer urged the purchase of
h property. as 1t would add about
three square miles TO the watershed and
also prevent pollution In the city's water
supply.
The amendment to the traffic ordi-
anc of the city. making it Illegal for
children under the age of 16 to drive
teams through the streets of Newark,
wat laid over. This ordinance will be

BAER FIXES COAL

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. SO.-That
George f. Baer. president of the Read

anthracite in Pennsylvania was admit
ted by one Of his subordinates at the
hearing of discrimination charge
against the railroad before a referee IL;
the federal building yesterday.
Robert J. Montgomery, general sales
agent for the Philadelphia and Reading
Coal and Iron Company, was on the
witness stand at the time, and Assis-
tant United States District Attorney
McReynolds, of New York, was cross
examining him. The witness had just
denied that he had anything to do with
the fixing Of prices for anthracite coal.
Then, who does fix the price?" asked
Mr.. McReynolds, vigorously. Mont
gomery paused for a moment and then
answered slowly and deliberately
George F. Baer, president OF the Read
ing Railway Company, always fixes the
price himself. When he wants to make
a change he sends a schedule Of rates
to the general ~salesagent Of the COM
pany. He did so with my predecessor
before 1 took the office. I suppose he
will do so with me when he wants tc
make another change. I have nothing
to do with the rates"
Does Mr.. Baer fax the price without
anyone else?"
Usually after consultation with the
first vice-president, Mr.. Voorhees,"

MORSE SAYS ON
STAND THE BANK
WAS NEVER BROKE
Former Ice King Contradicts AL
legged Statement in Talk
with Curtis.

NEW YORK, Oct. 3o.-Charles W.
Morse. the f1nancier, test1fying in his
own behalf today In the United States
Court, where he Is on trial with A. H.
Curtis on charges of violation of the
national banking laws. fatty contra
dicted the statement alleged to have
been made to him by his codefendant,
that he had ''busted' the National
Bank of North America. Curtis never
said anything Of the kind to me- said
Morse when his counsel questioned him
with reference to the statement which
was made by q witness for the prose-
cution.
1.-THE bank never Wa busted" he was
continuing. when the prosecution OBJ
jected. His counsel protested that the
witness should be permitted to con-
tinue and show that the bank continued
in operation until January 81. that 1t
was then closed for liquidation only,
that all ~depositors have been paid In
full, and that several million dollars of
real estate and securities remain for
stockholders. Judge Hough sustained
the objection of the prosecution.
When Morse started to tell Of q con-
yersation he had in this city with Comp
| troller Of the Currency Ridgely In Octo-
| Der and November, 1907. counsel for the
| prosecution objected and was sustained
| by the court. IT want to show" said
| ex-Congressman Littlefield, counsel for
| Morse, In arguing against he objection,
that Comptroller Ridgely In those CON
versations absolved Mr.. Morse from all
| responsibility"
Answering the first question OF his
| counsel, Mr.. Morse replied in SO faint
n voice that his replies were barely
audible in the rear of the crowded cour
room. The witness had become inter-
csted in the Bank of the State Of New
York, he said, in 1895. and in the Bank
Of North America In 1902. when the two
institutions were consolidated. Mr.
Morse asserted that he had no expert
ence in the routine of banking methods.
Morse in his testimony late yesterday
said he relied upon Curtis and Wire for
the bank routine. His influence got
them their places. he let It be inferred.
