EXPRESS RATE CASE DECISION WON BY
 MERCHANTS
FINDING or COMMISSION IN CAP. TEAL CITY WILL BENEFIT
 WHOLE TERRITORY

r PHOENIX, May 2S.--The Maricopa County Commercial club has received from the interstate commerce commis. sion the official and complete decision in the Wells-Fargo Express company case.
 "The reductions are more sweeping and far-reaching than were expected from the meager press dispatches sent out, y said Traffic Manager Jones of the commercial club. "The decision abso. luteg fixes the rates to all the principal points in Arizona, New Mexico, Califor. mia and all points east, including Den- yer. The report of the commission was written by Commissioner Prouty and adopted by the entire commission at a general session held in Washington on May 3, 1909."
 Much interest has attached to this case owing to the fact that other Ari- zona cities in addition to Phoenix are benefited by the commission ruling. Dairymen, ranchers and farmers as well as clothing, dry goods and millinery dealers and other merchants will benefit greatly as the reductions made in the express rates are quite sweeping. For example, on the new rates for dry goods from Kansas City to Phoenix there is a saving of $2.25 per hundred pounds, the old rate being $l0.25 while the new rate is $500. Likewise there is @ re- duction in rates from Chicago, St. Louis, Boston, New York and other eastern cities.
 The reductions from towns within the territory to other territorial towns are greater In per cent than the reductions in rates from cities outside of the ter ritory to those within the territory. The reductions include stations as far east as Fl Paso and as far west as Yuma. An example of the reductions is shown in the Phoenix-Tucson rate for merchandise and for general special consignments.. The old merchandise rate is, $1.75, while the new one is $1.20. The old general special rate is $l.25 while the new one is 95 cents. Corresponding reduction are made for other terri torial cities.
 The commission has ordered the com pany to establish the new rates on or before July l, 1909, and maintain them in force thereafter for not less than two years.

Grounds WU Closed Unhl Formal Open-
 ing Day

SEATTLE, Wash, May 2s.--The grounds of the Alaska Yukon Pacific Exposition were closed 10 visitors today and will remain closed until the official opening of the big fair next Tuesday This step was decided upon by the management to give the workmen . chance to go about their work un- hampered by the crowds, which have been steadily growing larger as the ex- position neared completion.
 A month ago the unknowing visitor might have viewed the seeming chaos with dubious thoughts as to the ability of the exposition management to finish the physical part of the exposition on time. But within the past few weeks the transformation at the grounds has been little short of marvellous. To day an enormous force of workmen, rep resenting every craft, is working like beavers, but with steady and well di- rected purpose to the end of making the exposition present a completed ap- pearance by tomorrow night. And from all indications their efforts will be crowned with success. Tons of debris are disappearing like magic, fairy-like structures have suddenly appeared from behind the maze of scaffoding with which they have been surrounded, paved roadways and walks and flower ing beds greet the eye in every direc- tion, and flags and banners are being flung to the breeze to complete the pie ture upon which tens of thousands of visitors from far and near are expected to gaze during the coming summer. By the first of the week not a workman will be in sight engaged in the task of clear ing and shaping up. The work will have been done.
 Many visitors are already in the city and every train brings more. From the present indications the hotels will be taxed to their fullest capacity on the opening day, but 10000 rooms in pri- vste houses are ready to accommodate the overflow. Excursions will be run from all points within a radius of sev- cFdl nuuuICN tullco, Wuuc Juc pcVpit oA Seattle and it's suburbs will naturally turn out in full force for the dedica- tion of the big show. Foremost among the notable visitors will be the gover. nors, with their gayly caparisoned staffs, who are expected to come from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Utah and possibly one or two other states.
 Seattle intends to leave nothing un- done that will contribute to the pleasure and entertainment of the thousands of visitors who will attend the exposition. The street railways have doubled their facilities in anticipation of the in creased traffic, and the assertion is made by the management that the sew eral lines connecting the exposition grounds with the business section of the city will be found fully adequate to handle the crowds. Hotels and restau. rants have cooperated in the movement to prevent extortionate prices. The city authorities are doing their share toward looking after tho entertainment and protection of visitors and the bus mess men generally have contributed liberally in the work of decorating the city and in the erection of handsome "Welcome arches to greet the visi- tor upon his arrival in the city.

GREAT COVERING OF SHORTS IN STEEL
 SECURITIES
LONGS WILLING TO RELEASE BIG HOLDINGS ON EVE OF PRO-
 HOLIDAY
BULLS FORGE PRICES UPWARD
COPPER HAS RISING TENDENCY AND WHEAT SHOWS SMALL
 GAINS FOR DAY

NEW YORK, May 2S.--Business at the stock exchange in the two hours before noon today reached almost as great volume as for the whole session yesterday. Enormous transactions in United States Steel were almost alto gether responsible for this revival. It appeared that the demand for this stock came largely from the short interest and the eve of holiday seemed to make the uncovered shorts uneasy.
 The aggressive bull party in United States Steel forced prices up from the start today and when it touched 63 and again at 64, heavy Stop loss orders for the bear account were uncovered, which furnished the medium for a large un- loading on the part of the longs.
 The prices of copper rose again at the metal exchange, but the copper indus trials had little part in the movement in the market.
 Sub-treasury operations have supplied $l ,267 900 to the banks and there have been gold shipments of importance dur. ing the week. The combined result promises to increase the banks hold ings of cash to the extent of nearly $9,000,000 This would bring the amount received by New York from the interior points since the middle of March to upward of s60,00o,0O0.
