ARGUE PACIFIC
CABLE CHARGES
Attorneys Are Heard on Motion
to Dissolve Commercial
Injunction

A motion to dissolve the Injunction
cable company from charging lower
rate for messages handed to it by the
Postal telegraph company for trans
mission 10 the Hawaiian islands, the
Philippines and Asia than it charges
the Western Union telegraph company
for similar messages was argued be-
fore Judge Seawel1 yesterday
The injunction was Issued about
eight months ago, and since that time
the Commercial cable company has
been charging the two telegraph COR
porationS the same rate. 1t was as
serted by Attorney Beverley Hodghead.
who, with William Grant, represented
the Western Union. that if the in
junction were dissolved and the dis
criminatory charges again permitted,
the Western Union would have to
abandon the business of taking mes
sages for Pacific ocean points.
Garrett McEnerney, representing the
cable company, argued in favor of the
dissolution of the INDUCTION on the
ground that the Commercial and Postal
companies, being both under the Mackay
control were practically one concern.
The additional rate to the Western
Union was made by charging that cor
poration for the words via San Fran
cisco" and for the date. These charges
are not levied against the Postal COM
pany. McEnerney contended that I'M
der a contract between the Commercial
and Postal companies, giving the
Postal through rate. this difference
in treatment was permissible, and did
not constitute discrimination.
Hodghead opened his argument in
reply. stating that the arrangement
was an endeavor to drive the Western
Union out of business. A continuance
was taken until Wednesday.

PIT RIVER FERRY TO
BE RE=ESTABLISHED SOON
Good News for Autoists on Cali
fornia and Oregon Road

REDDING, May 13.-Automobilists
contemplating making the trip be-
tween San Francisco and Portland, or
from San Francisco to the McCloud
region, will be interested in knowing
that the ferry boat at Wyndham cross
ing on Pit river three miles south OF
Baird, will be in operation commenc-
ing Saturday noon.
The ferry was carried out by the
high water in January. and since then
travel over the California and Oregon
wagon road between Redding and
Dunsmuir has been blocked.
Automobile parties could only make
the Redding to Dunsmuir trip by max
ing wide detours from Redding by way
of French gulch, Trinity center and
Delta and lnence to DunSmuir, going
so miles out of their way. Several
parties shipped automobiles by rail
from Redding to Dunsmuir to avoid
this roundabout mountain trip.

HARTMAN MERGER
SUIT MOVES SOUTH
Taking of Testimony Here Com
pIeted and Will Be Resumed
Saturday in Los Angeles

The taking of testimony in this city
in the suit brought by the government
to dissolve the Hartman merger was
completed yesterday at noon. The only
witness called to the stand yesterday
was John W. Chapman. manager of the
traffic department of the Pacific hard
ware and steel company.
Chapman testified that he shipped
goods into Idaho by way of the Oregon
Short Line from Portland. where the
goods had arrived by steamer from San
Francisco. Chapman added that this
route was better than by way of Og
den, which was made almost prohibit
tive by the high rate.
The government next questioned the
witness as to the fitness of shipping
goods by water. Chapman contended
that the American Hawaiian steamship
line was preferable TO the Pacific Mail.
This difference. he said, was due to the
small vessels of the Pacific Mail, which
could not handle large pieces of freight.
as the vessels often sprang leaks and
the goods were damaged.
G. A. Severance, attorney for the gov
eminent, put into evidence the testi-
mony of f. Fl. Hartman taken in the
case of the state of Minnesota against
the Northern Securities company and
others. Judge r. S. Lovett. chief coun-
sci for Hartman, admitted that the
record offered in evidence was a cor
rect transcript of the testimony, but
objected to it being admitted on the
ground that it was hearsay evidence.
An adjournment was taken until 10
o'clock Saturday morning, in Los An
roll h2f limo he IL ~
San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake
road will be examined. Thomas f. Glib
bon, attorney for the railroad will also
testify

Isn't short, smooth road better than
roundabout, rocky one?
Isn't that the road you would take by
preference
Well, the shorter, easier, smoother road
in washing clothes is the Fels-Naptha way.
No rocks in your path; no boiling, hot
fires, steaming suds, or hard rubbing.
Fels-Naptha banishes the disagreeable
part of washing, takes out the backache,
cuts the time to half, and makes the clothes
cleaner and whittier than it is possible by
the old-fashioned way.
Follow the simple directions on the
red and green wrapper.
