READJUST TARIFFS.
Interstate Cammerce Commission t.
Hold New Hearing.


Washington, June 10.-Under an Or
der issued by the Interstate Commerce
commission today all class rates fixed
by its recent decision in the Spokane
case will be put into effect July l, but
the commodity rates touched upon in
that case will continue as at present
without change until after the commits
sion has taken further testimony and
given further consideration to such
rates, both to the Coast and from Coast
points East. This order was entered
after brief hearing this morning,
participated in by representatives from
Spokane. Portland and other interested
Coast and Interior cities.
This is a practical reversal of the
famous freight rate case. While the
whole matter of graded rates and the
effort of the railroads to build up job
bing centers in the Middle West to the
detriment of the Pacific Coast is post
poned until the fall for full hearing
and discussion, the commission has
withdrawn, tentatively at least, from
the position it assumed in the decision
in the Spokane case when it ordered
reductions in class and 80 commodity
rates from Chicago to Spokane.
Although the class rates ordered al
that time are to go into effect, these
rates only affect less than carload lots
and scarcely 15 per cent of the traffic
moves under them.

JUDGE DEFENDS HENEY.
Declares Man Shot in Court Room
Entitled to Sympathy.


San Francisco, June "a quarrel
OF unparalleled bitterness, involving
Judge William P. Lawlor and yirtually
all OF the attorneys engaged in the
trial of Patrick Calhoun, enlivened a
day otherwise devoted to presentation
of routine testimony. Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Heney started the dis
pute by charging that Earl Rogers, an
attorney for the defense, had been
smiling at certain members of the iury.
There was an angry response from
John 7. Barrett, of the defense, who
declared that the prosecution had un-
necessarily prolonged the trial by the
introduction of trivial matters.
The subject of the jurors smiles was
about to be dismissed. when John ].
Barrett reopened the issue by saying
Il do not think we should be lee
tured by the district attorney into a
state of seriousness regarding this
case. The prosecution has spent weeks
In presentation of matter that is ri
diculous, trivial and ludicrous, attempt
ing by the length of time devoted to
their presentation to make the jury
think them worthy of consideration.
For these remarks Barrett was
sternly reprimanded by Judge Lawlor,
who told the attorney that if he made
another such reference he would send
him to Jail.
IF the court intends to punish me. "
Barrett answered, "then what about
this man sitting over here, who has re-
peatedly been permitted to insult the
court, the jury and the attorneys?"
Heney at once took up the fray and
shouted:
"These are the ebullitions of man
who was appointed to office by the
crookedest mayor the city ever had,
Eugene E. Schmitz."
"Why, you've been mixed up in more
crooked work than any man in this
courtroom" said Barrett.
"Mr. Heney has never insulted the
court, "thundered Judge Lawlor sternly.
He has certain temperamental quail
tiles which have observed and made
allowance for. He was stricken down
in this court while engaged in the per-
formance of his duty, and resumed his
activities at an early date. Mr.. Heney
is laboring under endorsements which
should appeal to the humanity of any
individual. That circumstance appeals
to the court if it does not appeal to
counsel on the other side."

Big Liner Wrecks Canadian Lock
In 500 Canal.
ENGINEER MISTOOK HIS SIGNALS
Two Vessels Went to Bottom and {
Third is Badly Damaged-Loss
Over Million and a Quarter.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich, June TO-
Because the engineer of the Gilchrist
liner Perry G. Walker misunderstood
signals from the pilot this afternoon
as the vessel was off the Canadian
locks of the $500" canal, the 81, ,OOO,-
600 waterway is damaged to the extent
of 1,25O, 600; the Perry G. Walker
and the Crescent City are sunken
wrecks, the Canadian Pacific steamer
Assiniboia is badly damaged and two
waterfalls and giant whirlpool are
raging in what was formerly the great
canal.
The Walker, steel steamer of over
1000 tons displacement. was approach
ing the canal locks from Lake Superior,
when her captain signalled the engineer
for "half speed" The engineer mis-,
understood the gongs and the big
freighter was sent forging ahead at tor
speed, striking the leaf-gates of the
high level chamber of the canal and
crushing them in like paper. Instantly
the full force of all the water in Lake
Superior surged into the chamber, car.
rying the Walker with it as if the big
freighter were only feather.
At the same time the Crescent City,
of the Steel Trust fleet, was entering
the locks from the lower end, while q
little distance astern of her was the G.
P. R. boat Assiniboia. The rush OF
water in the upper lock swept down
the intervening canal gates and poured
through in an uncomfortable torrent.
On the crest of the great wave thus
made was carried the Walker, and the
rush of water picked up the Crescent
City like chip of wood and hurled hel
against the Assiniboia.
A huge hole was torn in the bow OF
the latter vessel, while the two former
ones were carried through the canal
and sank in the open water beyond.
Tugs went to the rescue of the Assini.
boi and hauled her to the flats on the
American side, where she settled into
the soft mud.
The loss to the Canadian govern.
ment probably will reach 250,0OC
pounds, and the damage to the Assini-
boia is estimated at $100, 900.

SAILED "A HOURS
Winner Of Balloon Race Shows
Great Endurance.
MAY BREAK DISTANCE RECORD
kentuckian Takes Shot at the Indiana,
and Alabaman at the New York
-Novices Win Trophies.

Indianapolis, June 8.-If the balloon
Indiana has not been disqualified by
touching earth it has broken the Amer
/ an endurance record by staying in
the air more than "A hours. Since the
balloon started in the national distance
race of the Aero club of America from
this city Saturday two reports have
been received from it.
One was that it had touched the
earth in Tennessee and had taken on
water and proceeded toward the south.
If this is true the balloon is disquali-
fled under the rules of the International
Aeronautical Federation. A second
dispatch signed by the pilot, Carl
Fisher, and his aide, G. L. Bumbaugh,
has stated that they dropped down near
enough to earth to let down a lid and
draw up bucket of water. Under
these conditions she has not been dis
qualified.
1t is not possible according to avail
able information, that the Indiana had
broken the distance record of 852
miles, for it was travelling due south
and would come to the Gulf coast al
most 100 miles short of the record es-
tablished by the German balloon Pom
mern in the international race nearly
two years ago for the James Gordon
Bennett trophy, which started from St.
Louis aid landed at Asbury Park, N. J..
The last of the six balloons entered
in the national distance race from
which definite landing report has
been received is the St. Louis III,
which dropped at Kelso, Tenn, having
covered about $40 miles. A. B. Lam
bert was pilot and H. E. Honeywell the
aide. Other balloons landed are as
follows:
New York, A. Holland Forbes, pilot
landed at Corinth, Mass, covering 375
miles in SO hours, 10 minutes.
University City, of st. Louis, trav-
eled $40 miles, landing at Blanche,
Tenn. time, 25 hours, "a minutes.
Hoosier, Captain Baldwin, pilot,
travelled 240 miles, landing at Green
Brier, Tenn.
Cleveland, landed at Columbus, Ind,
40 miles, 2 hours 55 minutes.
DR.. Gothelink, pilot, and R. ]. Ir-
win, assistant, flying the Indianapolis,
won both the trophies in the handicap
race, which started at :45 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon, just preceding the
national race. The Indianapolis won
the cup offered for the greatest dis
tance by the Indianapolis Merchants
association, having approximately 16
miles better to her record than the
Ohio. She also won the Fisher trophy
for time in the air, having margin OF
almost two hours over the Chicago.
The victory of the indianapolis men
and their balloon is considered remark
able, inasmuch as they are new at bal
looming. They started on their flight
with but five bags of sand, and were
lightly provisioned. They made 235
miles, and were in the air 10 hours.
| A message from them says their high
est altitude was $4,000 feet. They
were shot at twice as they went over
Kentucky, but were not hit.
The New York, which landed neal
Corinth, Miss, was also shot at Sun
day night, while passing over Morgan
county, Alabama.
