Perhaps we can explain best by stating
that modern high schools have several

teaching, or for practical manual art
Then, again, there is the department
which prepares for further study in col
ieges and universities. It Is this last
department which is vitality concerned
with this approved list Of the New

course shows that sufficient preparatory
work is being done, the graduates in
that course are admitted to the colleges
without examination.
Excellence IN this department as
shown by being placed on the approved
list Of the colleges does not indicate,
however, that the other departments Of
high school instruction are being neglect

Rate Decision
Railroads Are Planning to Bring
Injunction Suits and Merchants
Will Ask Concessions.

PORTLAND, Ore, March THE Ore
gonian tomorrow will say: It is consid-
cred practically certain that every pos
sible legal obstruction will be placed in
the way of the enforcing of the Spokane
rate case decision by the railroads of this
territory. While 1t cannot be learned def
nitely at present II this step will be taken,
nor what processes will be resorted to. 1t
is believed the railroads will fight the rate
order just made and at least delay Its en-
forcement to the utmost, even IL 1t cannot
be defeated.
The Spokane rate decision was ordered
to become effective May !. This is said
by all to be practically impossible. The
readjustment and publication OF tariffs
made necessary by the decision, causing
the checking over of all the rates to the
territory effected, will take months. That
this mass of detail can be arranged by
May 1 is said to be out OF the question.
1t is expected the commission will con-
sent to the postponement of the effect of
the decision until a reasonable time can
elapse, but II is thought this will not sat
isfy the railroads. 1t is believed they will
apply for injunctions or take some other
step to overturn the recent decision.
Meanwhile the Portland Chamber of Com
merce will begin suit before the Interstate
Commerce commission for lower distribu-
tive rates put of Portland. Suit will be
filed probably within the next two weeks.

TENSION STRONG IN BERLIN
Situation Between servia and Austria
More Clearly Defined, but still
DisquietinR.

BERLIN. March THE situation be-
tween Austria Hungary and servia, arising
from the efforts Of the latter country to
secure compensation for the annexation by
the dual monarchy OF Bosnia and Herzeso-
vlna was today acknowledged to be DIS
quieting; there Is, however, this advantage:
The issues are more clearly defined than
before.
It can be said with authority that every
thing now depends upon the position Rus
STA takes in the matter. The situation
stands as follows:
Servia has undoubtedly renounced all its
direct demands, both territorial and eco
nomical, but at the same time ii charged
Russia to place these demands before an
International conference. Austria-Hungary
declined to accept such a conference before
the points at issue with Servia are settled.
Austria-Hungary is prepared to grant
favorable commercial and economical COM
pensations to Servia If servia consents to
negotiate direct; but should a conference
powers in any way to intervene in questions
Austria-H Hungary, with the support of Ger
many, would oppose any concessions.
Austria-Hungary and Germany consider
that a conference should be called only
10 Satisfy agreements dlIcduS ulhuc ohu
they do not recognize the right of the
powers in any way to intervene in questions
concerning two independent nations.
1t is affirmed also that Turkey 10 in
clined TO hold to a similar view. The
porte fears that II such a conference
awarded damages, Servia would demand
territorial compensation from Turkey.
The provisional commercial agreement
- a--.-a- o--.g. -.
pires March 81, and Austria Hungary is
willing to make the new agreement more
advantageous II Servia will abstain from
seeking foreign Intervention and settle the
question alone. Up to the present time
Russia has not ntimated whether or not
It will accept the servian mandate to APP
proach the powers.
Although there is no serious anxiety re-
garding the eventual peaceful outcome of
this controversy, a certain disgusting ten
sion was evidenced today in official cir
cles.
VIENNA, March 6-Count Forgach, the
Austria Hungarian minister at Belgrade,
has been instructed to inform the servian
government that owing to the attitude
maintained by servia for the last few
months the government of the dual mon
archy, to its regret, has not been In a
position to submit a renewal of the com
mercial treaty with Servia, which expires
March 81, for parliamentary sanction. The
Austria Hungarian government. Count For
zach is instructed to add, which, IT is gen
orally understood, has decided to change It's
policy with regard to Rosnia and Herzego-
vina, will notify Vienna OF this wise reso-
luton as well as its intention to maintain
peaceful and neighborly relations with Aus
tria-Hungary. AS soon as this notification is
received Austria-Hungary will be prepared
to negotiate the questions OF trade inter-
course.
