OVER
RATE INCREASE
NEW YORK MANUFACTURERS TO
APPEAL TO INTERSTATE
COMMISSION.

New York, July n4.-The interstate
commerce commission will be appeal
ed to by the Manufacturers Associa-
ton of New York lin it's fight to pre-
vent the railroads. 5from 10 per cent
increase in freight rates. Should the
proposed increased rate be put into
effect, as was intimated by Vice Pres
ident w. C. Brown, of the New York
Central in his reply to the protest
of the manufacturers, the association
will ask the interstate commerce COM
mission to declare the increase dis
eliminating and Unjust.
This would BEG done at once, but
the interstate commerce commission
has no power to Act in such matter
and until such 3 proposed increase
really goes into effect. Members of
the association after reading Mr..
Browns answer, sent by him to the
associations secretary, J. T. Hoyle,
said that Mr.. Browns answer, while
lengthy, failed to show them any ade.
quate reasons why the shippers should
suffer because the railroads are not
making as much money as they did in
the past.
Secretary Hoyle, after a careful pc
rusal of Mr. Browns letter at his home
at Farmdale, L. l., replied to a mum
Der of statements it contains.
He said: For many moons the
prayer Of the railroad manager ad
dressed to Washington has been don't
trouble us and let US alone If the
railroads insist upon the 10 per cent
increase at this particular time we
shall have to see what can be done
with and through the interstate com
merce commission. 1t may be a fact
there should be a 10 per cent in
crease. The time, however, for thai
increase is not now"

IS
CONSIDERING
BILL.
WHICH PROVIDES FOR A DIVIS-
ION OF THE BRUNSWICK
CIRCUIT.


The bill to divide the Brunswick
Circuit, which was introduced in the
legislature shortly after that body
convened, is now in the hands of a
commlLJee, and a report is expected
On it almost any time.
The bill came up beIqre the commit
tee in Atlanta last Thursday and sew
eral friends CT the measure went up
from this section to urge its passage.
Among those who appeared before
the committee was Solicitor General
John w. Bennett, of Whycross, who is
a strong advocate of the bill. Mr..
Bennett has been solicitor general of
the Brunswick circuit for a number
OF years and he, probably more than
any one else, except tho judge, realizes
that a division is badly needed.
The Brunswick circuit is said to
be the largest circuit in the state, or
at least one of them, and the business
has grown so of late that it is almost
impossible for one judge to attend to
the work. 1t takes nearly his entire
time to cover the circuit according to
the calendars of the various counties
which compose the cifcuit and he is
given but little time for special and
chamber sessions.
If the bill is favorably reported and
passed it is believed that the
present Brunswick circuit will be com
posed of the counties of Glynn, Cam
den, Wayne, Appling and probably jeff
Davis, while the others will go to the
new circuit. This would necessitate
the election of a newt judge and soli-
citor for the Brunswick circuit, as
both of those officials are at present
located in the counties which would
compose the new circuit
1t is not known what progress the
committee is making with the bill,
but a report on it is expected during
the present week. The bill has the
endorsement of almost every bar as
sociation in the circuit, and it is be-
lieved THAT it will be passed during
the present session.

MAKES APPEAL 10 THE CITY.
To Have Weeds Rens owed From the
Streets

Editor News-I read with much in
terest your lode item Yesterday morn
ing calling the attention of the city
authorities to the great growth of
weeds in all sections df the city, and
l sincerely hope that the city fathers
will take the matter hp and act at
once.
Possibly if some of the officials of
the city would take walk or drive
over the city and note kthe profusion
in which these undesirable weeds are
growing, they would lose no time in
having them removed. On almost ev-
cry street in the city, to say nothing
OF the vacant lots, the Weeds are Civ
en- full sway and on many of the prin'
cipal streets the sight iS simply de-
plorable one.
1t seems strange thatAit is left to
the newspapers to call the attention
of the city to this neglected work ev-
cry summer, but it seems that the
cnly enemy of the weeds in Bruins
wick is the newspapers. Keep it up,
Mr.. Editor, until they are removed.

THINGS WHICH EXCITE
COMMENT IN ATLANTA.
Joe Brown Removal and the Pension
Question.

Atlanta, July 14.-One of the most
surprising things connected with the
present session. outside Of the fail
ure of Governq Hoke Smith to report
on the Yel cf Hon. Joseph NJ
Brown from the office of railroad com
missioner, is phe failure of either
house to take any consideration of
the much-talKed pension payment
question. EarE in the session several
members responding to the criticisms
and demands made in the recent CUB
ernatorial campaign. introduced bills
making provision for the restitution
,of the old annual payment system. SO
far as known none OF them has been
acted on even by, committee. None
Of the bills making provision for the
election of the pension commissioner
by the people. has been acted OF

SHERIFF THINKS Il
He HAS MURDERER
Mexican Arrested in Globe Be
lieved To Be Wanted in
i'l Yavapai County.
IA CT T1 II

A Mexican giving his name ssAAlber-
toa Perdia, who was arrested Tuesday
for vagrancy, is believed by Sheriff
Thompson to- be Antonio Avlla, who is
wanted id Y'avapaf county for murder.
Perdia exactly fits the description of
the man wanted at Prescott, although
he claims to have come here from Mex:
leo two months ago and that this Is
his first time5 in this country. FL
A circular sent out by Sheriff Lowry
of Yayapai county dated April Is, 1907,
offers reward for the arrest of Avila.
Yesterday Sheriff Thompson wired The
Yavapai county sheriff telling of the
arrest and a reply received later in the
day asked for information as to what
crime the man was wanted for, SO that
the authorities of the northern conn
ty have probably forgotten all about
the crime. e.
