CHARGES WERE RECKLESS
Idaho Capitol Building Commission
ers Will Be Exonerated in Re-
nOTts to Senate.
Special to The Herald.O


Boise, March Z-Majority and minority
reports will be received from the senate
state affairs committee in the upper house
tomorrow on the investigation into the
charges of extravaganza and mismanage-
ment against the capitol building COM
mission and members of the first conf
mission, who were charged with at
tempting to extort money from Contrac-
tor A. 5. Whiteway to assure him a con-
tract on the building. Both reports will
exonerate the accused former members
of the board and the majority report will
declare that the only substantiation Of
the charge that the commission has been
extravagant lies in the fact that the build
ing, when completed, viii have cost more
than at first anticinated. circumstance
which, the report will state, is quite COM
mon in the erection OF buildings and
which gives no evidence of extravaganza
Kearns of the judiciary committee and
Macbeth of the state affairs COMMITTEES
have accepted the testimony of those ac-
cused by Whiteway as against that Uf
the Moscow contractor, and in their mi
nority report will state that the evidence
will not show the guilt of any of them
The report will state, however, that the
testimony adduced showed that the COM
mission was e1travagant and nisman-
aged the states affairs in the construc-
ton Of the new capitol.

UNION MEN WIN
EIGHT-HOUR CASE
Decision of Circuit Court OF
Appeals in the Dispute
of the Freshmen.

Cincinnati, March 2.-The union men
win and the employers lose in the long
fought case of the Typothetae of AmeS-
lea against the International Printing
Pressmens union, according to a de-
cision rendered this afternoon by the
United States circuit court of appeals
The decision establishes an eight-hour
day for work.
The decision was written by Judge
Cochran of Kentucky, who sat in the
hearing of the appeal from District
Judge ThOmpson's decision.
The digest Of the decision was made
by Presiding Judge Lurton. The appel
late court rules that no contract exists
between the union and the typothetae
to maintain the nine-hour day, as al
legged by the typothetae.
the appellate court declined to enter
into consideration of the injunction
features of the case. but sustained
Judge Thompson on all other matters.
Judge ThOmpsOns rulings. therefore.
on the injunction features of the case
stand. He held that no injunction shall
lie to restrain the officers of the union
from advising the union men to keep or
break a contract, because they were
parties to or interested in the contract.
A case similar to the one decided to-
day is pending in the supreme court Of
the United States. The typOthetae at
tackled the union on the grounds that
the officers of it are contract breakers.
The officers here fought against the
validity of what the typothetae alleged
to be a renewal of the nine-hour con-
tract. entered into by other officers of
the union.

last generation, is here. She is a sister
of Mr.. Taft's mother, and has lived
with his parents since his boyhood.
There is a strong affection between the

to consider their marriage the only OBJ
ject to be attained. Mr.. Taft has stated

SALT LAKE MAN
STILL ON EARTH
Remarkable Case of William
COnley, Whose Wife Thought
She Had Buried Him.

Los Angeles, March "A remarkable
story of wrong Identification was re-
vealed today when William Conley of
Salt Lake City, whose supposedly dead
body was recognized when it washed
ashore at Venice about three weeks ago
returned here from the desert, where he
had been employed and effected a hap
py and fearful reconciliation with his
mourning widow" Conley had not
seen newspaper in months until re-
Gently, when he picked one up and saw
q notice of his death and identification
by his wife and son.
He Immediately FASTENED to this city
where, after a brief search, he located
Mrs. Conley. The meeting was one of
mingled establishment and joy to the
mourning widow, who required but one
glance at her live husband to convince
her that she had made a mistake.
The body which she identified was
found after q storm at the beach, lying
in the water partially under raft,
with the face badly mutilated. Mrs.
Conley and her son identified the re-
mains of Mr.. Conley, whom they had
not seen or heard of in two years, by
means of the knife and other t7inkets
found in the pockets. The body was
buried in Woodlawn cemetery. Today
Mr.. and Mrs. Conley paid q. visit to the
undertaken, and the latter served notice
on the undertaken that she had made a
mistake, and that the guarantee of flu
neral expenses which she had made
would have to be revoked. She had al
ready made a partial payment of the
funeral bill. The real identity of the
man who was buried is now as much of
a mystery as ever. The coroner has
been notified of the occurrence Conley
has been for several months In the en-
ploy of the City of Los Angeles, work
ing on the Owens river aqueduct.

Opinion Unanimous.

The case has been under considera-
ton for about a year and a half. For
many months the commission has been
endeavoring to settle the intricate
points involved, but not until a few
days ago was an agreement possible.
The unanimous opinion of the commits
sion was prepared by Commissioner
Prouty.
1t is pointed out that nearly all COM
modities to the Pacific coast move IN
der commodities fates, and these were
the principal subject of complaint upon
the part of Spokane. Rates from all
points on the Missouri river to Seattle
are the same, while rates from the same
points to Spokane usually are consider
ably higher than to Seattle, and they
increase as the points of origin lie far
Their east.
AS illustrative Of this condition, the
complaint referred to thirty-twO arti-
cIes. The decision holds that the COM
mission can fix the rates only upon the
articles enumerated. The cut in rates
ordered is horizontal and amounts in
same instances to 30 per cent; in other
cases to only 8 or 5 per cent.
In the hearing the cost of reproducing
the properties Of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific, their financial
history, their present capitalization and
their earnings in recent years, were
fully considered.

Findings of Commission.

The commissions findings, in brief,
follow:
F'irst-The system of transcOntinental
rates now in force applies lower trans
portation charges from points of origin
upon the Missouri river and east to Pa
cific coast cities than are applied to in
termediate interior points; held that
this scheme Of rate making has been
forced by water competition between
the Atlantic and the Pacific coasts and
that the maintenance of the lower rate
to the more distant coast point is not
of necessity a violation of the third or
the fourth sections, since water cOmpe-
tition creates a dissimilarity of Circum-
stances and condition between the in
terror and coast.
Second-WateT competition may jus
tffy a difference in carload miuimUms
and in the right of combining different
commodities at the carload rate, as we'll
as in the rate itself; but carriers should
be prepared to justify such preference.
Question of Reasonable Rates.
ThiTd-In determining what are red
sonable rates between two points, nei-
Their that railroad which can afford to
handle traffic at the lowest rate or that
Continued on Page 8.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-03-03
w ater Competition.

On the first point defendants main
tanned that water competition COM
PEELED them to charge the rates in eff
feet to Seattle, and that therefore they
might charge a higher rate to Spokane
without violating the long and short
haul provision or without discriminate
ing against Spokane under the law.
The commission sUstains the claim Of
the defendants in this respect, and
holds that the rates to Spokane, al
though higher than to Seattle, are not
unlawful.
On the second point, the commission
sustains the claim of the petitioner and
holds that the rates from eastern des-
tinations to Spokane are unjust and
unreasonable. 1t reduces class rates
from st. Paul to Spokane 16 2-3 per
cent, and makes substantially the same
reduction from Chicago to Spokane
Rates east Of Chicago are not dealt
with.
The decision, If applied in principle
to all commodities and to all interior
points, must work a revolution in rates
from eastern points of origin to all in
terror transcontinental territory, and in
that view it is one of the most far
reaching decisions ever rendered by the
commission.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1909-03-03

Washington, March 2.-The interstate
commerce commission today decided
the two points in the complaint filed by
the city of Spokane against the North
ern Pacific, the Great Northern and the
Union Pacific, which were:
First-That the rates from eastern
destinations to Spokane were higher
than to Seattle, a more distant point.
Second-That the rates to Spokane
were inherently unreasonable.

FOUR MEN ACCUSED OF
ROBBERY ARE DISMISSED

The preliminary hearing of Will
Foreman Will Peddicord and Will
Johnson, cab driver, and Joe Barr, a
bartender, which occupied all the
time Of the justice court yesterday,
was concluded late in the evening and
after thoroughly thrashing over the
case, Justice A. J. Welter decided that
there was not enough evidence to war
rant a prosecution further and all
four defendants were dismissed. They
had been accused of completely in a
plot to rob John Given, of Elkins, who
made complaint that he had beer haul
ed out to the corner of Seventh street
and Pennsylvania avenue and robbed
of $110 and a certified check for $3.50.
Given's story of the robbery would
have been sufficient to bind I'VE had
he been clear on all points and had he
been able to positively identify the de
PENDANTS. And there we're other
points that served as strong clews,
but they were merely clews and
could not be taken as positive evi.
! dence as to the guilt of anyone. The
fact that Given was intoxicated at the
time Of the alleged robbery and was
out seeing the city by gas light made
1t hard to get positive evidence out
Of him.
