WANTS COMMISSION ID VALIDATE
 REBATE
LUMBER COMPANY SAYS IT sUr- FERs BY CUTTING OFF
 OF COMEBACK.

WASHINGTON, November 2l.--A curious request is made of the inter state commerce commission in petition filed by the National Lumber company of Los Angeles, against the San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake Railroad com. pany.
 The complaint says that in the past it has been granted on shipments of lumber and building material from Los Angeles to various points, yarding-in. transit rebate to enable it to meet com. petition with companies having their yards at San Pedro.
 The defendant railroad is willing to grant the rebate, but holds that it can not do so under the law. The commis- sion is requested to direct the railroad to pay a rebate on certain shipments amounting to $771. No such report ever before was made to the commission.

 is the intention of the hotel company to remove all the buildings and erect a four-story addition to the hotel prop. CT, which will give them about forty more guest chambers and greatly re. t;eve a eonjestsd condition that has characterized the hotel from its open. ing. This improvement will necessitate an expenditure of at least sS0,000.
 Los Angeles capitalists have been ne. gotiating for the purchase of the Will. Hanson property for number of months past, but the parties interested could not agree upon terms. Mir. Williamson received a telegram from Los Angeles yesterday morning request ing him to declare the local deal off and that they would pay his price. MT. Williamson, however, decided to ig- nore this overture, and closed with Messrs. Jones and Newman for $40, ,0O0. The Los Angeles men arc said to be anxious to buy Globe business property and it is more than likely that they will be heard from soon, as some of the choicest property in tho business dis trict was placed in the hands of local real estate men yesterday at prices which should make early sales. That movements in business properties will be quite lively during the next few months there is little doubt, as Broad street property, especially on the west side of the thoroughfare, is considered a bonanza investment at $l,000 front foot. Property at this price with i'm. provements will net the investor from l5 to 25 per cent, and 10 per cent money is now becoming common.
 The announcement yesterday of the consummation of these deals in busi. ness properties created considerable ex eitement in real estate circles and there was bouyaney noticeable that has not existed in the city for nearly eigh- teen months. Inquiries regarding the improved Broad street properties were numerous and efforts were made to se cure options. Most of the inside prop. erty is held at from $500 to 5000 per front foot, while desirable corners are held at $l200 front foot. Option on one corner lot was secured yesterday Tor sl2OO foot, and the man who so. cured it announced that he had buyer for the property at a figure that would net him nice little sum. The ball has started rolling in dead earnest. The transfers of yesterday mean that much of the unimproved property on Broad street will early fall into the hands of men with money who will early revive building in the down town districts and give to the city larbe number of new and badly needed business houses.

Indeed, old Dominion is now recognized as one of the most inn portant copper mines in the United States, possessing great possibilities of increased production. The declaration of dividend of $l per share by the Old Dominion company of New Jersey, and of 50 cents by Old Dominion of Maine, has made good impression, especially as these disbursements are designated "qnarterly." Old Domin- ion of Maine is now earning over $lO0,. 900 per month and on a IS cent copper market should next year pay quarterly dividends of $l per share.

The vein on the s00.foot level is about thirty feet wide and carries a very fair grade of sulphide ore.

How Straus Loves
American Workers

Oscar Straus. secretary of commerce
and labor in the cabinet of Theodore
Roosevelt, announces that he will
take the stump for William H Taft
This announcement appeared in the
newspapers of Saturday, September II.
1t is quite natural that Oscar Straus,
cabinet officer, should support the cleo
ton OF William H. Taft, but the rea-
sons for so doing advanced by Secre-
tary Straus are proper subjects for
discussion. Here is what Secretary
Straus says:
.'As the head of the department of
commerce and labor. l am decidedly
interested in the welfare of labor, and
regard the Bryan fallacies more dan
gerous to labor than to any other eIe-
ment in the campaign. His govern
ment ownership of railroads and his
bank deposit scheme would so cripple
industry as to reduce the wage paying
fund even more than his previous faI-
lacy of 16 to l."
Before discussing these points it
might be well to know just who Oscar
Straus is. He is a millionaire dry
goods merchant of New York, whose
acquaintance with the needs and de
sires of the American mechanics and
