Fernandez, LIST base; Vanatta, second
base; Hampton, third base; Burns,
short stop; Olmos, rightfeld; En- Sue,

swing out toward the So sign; Eddie
Fernandez with his hunts and base

with the club and annihilator of space
between bags; En- Sue, bunter and base
speeder; Kia, with his near home runs.

RAILROAD RATE RAISING,
Senator Culberson Speaks For
 His Measure.
F0RAKERIS IS THE DEFENDER
Ut the Chief Executive, Beiag of the Opinion That the President Would Not Be Party to an Agreement ts Increase Cost of Hauling.

washington. May 9.-Referring to ms oiil to prevent railroads from rais. Ing freight rates. Senator Culberson thursday called the attention of the senate to newspaper publications to the effect that the railroads of the country. with the approval of the pres 'dent and the interstate commerce. commission, have agreed to a general Increase of rates.
 ne sald It was stated in one pubIi. cation that the president had agreed to this increase of rates as an offset TOT his action in blocking a general reduction of wages in railroads. This statement, he added, quoted Chairman hhapp as in favor of the advance in rates. A western paper declared that thls increase of rates by the railroads would amount to several hundred mil lions of dollars annually.
 Expressing surprise that the senator rom Texas was objecting to the com. mission fixing the rates. which the Hepburn rate law gave them the now. CT 10 do, MT. Foraker reminded MT. CuIDerson that he (Mr. Culberson) had voted for that law. When the rate law passed, he added, It was supposed 1t would result in lower rates. but With the exception of action taken shortly after it's passage, the commis. sion had affected rates only to in. crease them.
 The law causes the commission to fix rates only on complaint" interpos. ed MT. Culberson.
 MT. Money of Mississippi declared that he could not believe the president had agreed to any such thing as an in. crease of rates. "and plumber the peo. pie of this country"
 MT. Foraker said he knew nothing ton with this matter T dont be- lieve," he said. "he will be found to be a party to any agreement to raise rates in violation of law. His whole concern has been that the shippers should have the benefit of the reduced rates"

Boston, May 9.-With some opposi- tion to instructions in favor of Hon. w. J. Bryan for presidential candidate. although such instructions were adopt ed finally and with more decided contest over the selection of delegates at large, the Democratic state conven- tion elected four leaders to represent the state at the Denver convention.
 The delegates chosen were George Fred Williams of Dedham, District At toryney Moran of Boston, former May or Coughlin of Fall River and Daniel J. Doherty of Westfield.
 The main contest came over the se- lection of four delegates, and principal ly over the name of George Fred Will jams. For two hours Faneuil hall re- sounded with shouts, cries, speeches and motions from various party lead. CTS. and the chairman had difficulty in maintaining ~semblance of order. At one time he was obliged to call upon the police to clear the platform. Some of the speeches were extreme ly bitter, but all speakers pleaded for harmony
 A roll call on the question of the choice for delegates by exclamation was finally carried by vote of 4OS to 152.
 Previous to the meeting of the | convention there was spirited con test within the committee of resolu- tions over the instruction plank. A compromise was effected. and while the plank was detained 1t was modi fled so as to apply only to the four delegates elected at Thursdays con vention

ADVERSE TO RAIL WAY. Court Holds Compress Does Not
 Owe Demurrare.

Austin. May 9.-The Third court of civil appeals, in an opinion by Associ- ate Justice Key, rendered an important opinion to the cotton interests and railroads of the state in Missouri, Kan sas and Texas Railway company vs. Capital Compress company, from Tray. Is, The Katy refused to pay the com- press for compressing cotton during the blockade of 1906, claiming that it's cars had been delayed and held to such an extent that demurrage offset the amount due for compression. The court held that the compress did not owe demurrage, if any was due, and decided against the railroad.
 The cotton furnishing the contest was consigned to a local firm and con- ceuntrated for compression, weighing, marketing and classifying.
 Writ of error will be sued out to the state supreme court by the railroad company after the usual motion for rehearing is disposed of
