such as her husband has written. AL
though DR.. Cooks absence and the
depletion of the family finances re-
sulting from his expedition have been
hard for Mrs. Cook and her daughters.
l have never heard her complain. She
has always been confident of her hus-
bands success and ready to make sac
ritices to help him.
'At present ! believe that she wants
time to adjust herself IT, new condi-
tions and fully realize the significance
of her position before she talks for
publication"
On the other hand, Mrs, Peary, wife
OF the rival finder of the pole. has
played too prominent part in the
career of her husband, with which the
world Is familiar to need mention
at this day. Mrs. Peary has gone into
the frozen regions with the arctic ex-
peditions conducted by her husband
as far as it was safe for woman to
live. And her daughter. now girl
OF sixteen. was born in the arctic coun-
try and is called, much to her present
disgust, the snow baby"
Mrs peary met her husband at
North Sydney. where she had secured
rooms at the hotel with view of the
bay so she could see the Roosevelt
Commander Peary's ship, when it first
put in an appearance.
Mrs. Cooks comment was brief and
singularly like the expression Of Mrs.
Peary ON the news of DR.. Cooks
achievement. She said:
"If Commander Peary has discov-
cred the pole. as am sure my hus-
band has. ! heartily congratulate him"

HELEN KELLER'S BENEFACTOF

Noted Blind Girl.

New York, May 21.-One Of the
least known and most touching of the
many charitable deeds OF Fl Fl. Roc

care of Helen Keller. the deaf, dumb
and blind girl, whose prodigies OF
learning have astonished the world.
Mr.. Rogers attention was called to
Miss Keller when the girl had hardly
reached her teens Her case at once
touched his heart. Secretly and
through agents he interested himself
In the girl and provided funds for the
early attempts to bring the light OF
knowledge to the then darkened mind
Miss Keller showed such aptitude
for learning that Mr.. Rogers contln
ued his benefactions and saw that the
most experienced and skillful teach
ers In the land were provided.
Evidence of the esteem In which
Mr. Rogers was held by his friends
and associates In this city was given
bv calls of many prominent business
men and flnanciers at the Rogers
home to express their regret at his
death. The kilograms of coincidence

Commission Decides "Port- "
land Gateway Case
TRAVELLING PUBLIC WINS

Northern Pacific, Union Pacific and
Northwestern Roads Ordered to Es.
tabIlsh Through Routes and Joint
Rates From Eastern Points Via
Portland, Ore, and to Maintain
Them for at Least Two Years.
Washington, May PA decision
was handed down by the interstate
commerce commission in what has
come to be known as the Portland
gateway case" in which the ccnten-
tior of the travelling public for through
routes and Joint rates from Eastern
points via Portland, Ore, is sustained.
The roads which were defendants in
the proceeding are required by order
of the commission to establish before
July 1, 1909, through routes and joint
rates via Portland and to maintain
them for at least two years. Chair
man Knapp and Commissioner Clark
dissented from the majority opinion
Of the commission, maintaining that
satisfactory through routes and joint
rates already are in existence.
BY the terms of the decision, which
is highly important to the travelling
public aud to the Western and North
western railroads, the Northern Pa
cific, the Union Pacific lines and the
Chicago and Northwestern railway
are ordered to join in the sale Of
through passenger tickets between
Seattle and other points in the Pa
cific Northwest and Eastern destina-
tions, via Portland, Ore, and to ac-
cord through facilities, like the check
Ing Of baggage, over this route.
Tho case was instituted on the in
itiative of the commission itself in
view of the numerous complaints 1t
has received that the present through
routes were unsatisfactory. 1t has
been pending many months and was
bitterly contested by the railroads.
The law empowers the commission to
establish a through route and joint
rate in cases like the present. pro.
vided no satisfactory through route
already exists. The Northern Pacific
insisted that 1t already affords salts
factory through rate to points on its
line north of Portland and hence that
the commission had no Jurisdiction to
open the Portland gateway, even
though. as matter OF discretion, 1t
might be of the opinion that this
ought to be done.

JAPANESE SUGAR
SCANDAL GROWING
Twenty Members Of Parliament
Arrested So Far.

Toxic, May 22.-Day by day the
scope of what is now known as the
sugar scandal" increases and the
arm of the law is being stretched into
places high and low to arrest and ex-
pose those responsible for the most
gigantic series of Irregularities ever
brought to light In Japan. Aroused
by public sentiment the government
authorities are leaving no stone un-
turned and showing no mercy In the
expose. One member Of parliament
after another is placed under arrest.
The Constitutional party. which car.
ried everything before 1t In the last
session of the diet, has been the chief
sufferer and will find 1t extremely
difficult to rally under the blow.
There have been arrested so faI
twenty members Of parliament and
six directors of the company. A de.
termlned effort has been made for
the last two sessions of the diet to
nationalize the sugar company, that
Is to say, to get the government to
tt.ke 1t over from the stockholders. Il
appears from confessions alleged tG
have been made by arrested directors
that in order to bring this about Q
sum Of 100000 was spent In briberr

Dawn revealed open water within a
few miles of the steamer. A little
later lead opened out through which
the Mongolian steamed to compara-
lively safe waters. For the first hour
or two 1t was slow work, as the ice
was still heavy and continually driv-
ing In on the steamer. On getting
further off shore the foes opened out
more and at a. m., with fairly clear
water, the Mongolian swung around
and headed down the coast and around
Cape Spear in the direction of Bay
Bulls, where 1t Is expected that the
steamer will remain until the mouth
of st. Johns harbor is cleared of ice.
