One of the chief reasons for asking
the appointment of commissioners for
assignment to certain territory is the
tremendous expense which complain
ants have to incur in presenting their
case to the commission as now organic
ed and the numerous trips that ship
pers have to make across the continent
and leave their homes and business to
attend hearings at Washington, d. c.
1t is also urged that injunctive and
Judicial powers be granted to the COM
mission as now organized to the extent
that may be necessary or desirable and
Especially power to all commissioners
to and compel the ATTENDANCE
of witnesses, the production of evil
dence and the power to enforce their
orders and make the findings of facts
and mixed questions of law and fact
final in the same way that they are
now determined by the department of
the interior; provided, however, that
the ultimate question of just and reas-
enable rates is a question Of law.
The third amendment recommended
is that the statutes provide specifically
that attorneys fees are taxable
against the carriers in favor of ship
pers when tn epetitioners are success
full in whole or part in the litigation,
unless some plan can be devised where
by a division of the department of JUS
ltice shall have charge of the prosecu-
ton at the expense of the United
States.
Mr.. Stephens also suggests that to
place the commission beyond successful
attack in its position and findings as
to excessive earnings, the value of the
railroad properties must be ascertain
ed and determined, adding in closing
his argument:
"This should be done under some
approriate procedure for that specific
purpose so as to insure the accuracy
and reliability thereof. This cannot be
accomplished any other way than by
the federal government, because of the
great expense involved When that is
done, the proceedings before the com
mission will be greatly simpliied and
the fixing of rates expedited; many
determinations and injustices eliminat-
ed, more equitable rates secured and
many unjust and arbitrary charges re
duced.o

taking property without due process
of law to require the common carrier
to carry the property of the shipper
at an un~reasonably low rate, and for
that reason it is a confiscation of the
carriers property, it follows, necees
sarily, that it is con~fiscation of the
shippers property to charge or col
lect from the shipper anything in ex-
cess of a reasonable rate or reason
able charge, and to the extent that
the shipper is charged an unreason-
able rate, the shippers property is
taken without due process of law and
is confiscated by the railroad com
panies."
Another amendment provides for the
appointment of commissioners for the
vorious districts and territories
throughout the United States. A com
mission On the Pacific coast would have
jurisdiction in a territory 200 miles
wide bordering on the ocean, while an
other would be stationed in the in
terror, in the district east of the Cas-
cade mountains in the state of Wash
ington, east of the range of noun
tains in Oregon and for Idaho, Mon
tana. Utah, Nevada, Arizona and dis
tricts similarly situated.
Mr.. Stephens suggestes that the
duty of these commissioners be to take
care of matters in the territory al
lotted to them, speedily and ex-
peditiously; allow an appeal from the
decisions of such commissioners to the
interstate commission, as
now constituted; permit a trial de novo
before the interstate com
mission, as now organized; permit, if
desirable, additional testimony on the
de novo trial on the part of any per-
son or corporation interested in the
controversy and then permit a further
appeal from the commission to the
supreme court of the United States
upon the record made upon the de novo
trial.

A. E. JOHNSTON WINS
in SUIT OVER ESTATE.
Decision That Action Should Be
Decided in His Favor.

In an opinion in the case of Aaron e.
Johnston against Thomas P. Nc
Kenna, handed down today, Vice.
Chancellor Howell says hat the suit
should be decided in favor of Johnston,
The complainant alleged that Hugh E.
O'Reilly and McKenna had defrauded
the T~hrockmorton estate, which Mr.
Johnston represented, in transactions
by which Mr.. McKenna and Mr.. O'Reil-
ly obtained possession of the estate for
themselves through Patrick j. Reilly
The opinion states that Reilly, accord
ing to the testimony, was a dupe in the
hands of McKenna and O'Reilly.
In his comments on the case, vice
Chancellor Howell states that Reilly
the most material witness for the de
tense, should have appeared, and, In
asmuch as the defense could easily have
secured him, his absence gives thu
benefit of the doubt on disputed points
to the complainant. He further states
that McKenra's story lacks in details
of time, place and circumstance, an
that his testimony is entirely unsatis
fa ctory.
Johnston, the complainant, appeared
for himself. He was assisted by Franz
McDermit. Charles j. Roe appeared
for O'Reilly and Joseph Coult for Nc
Kenna.

WIRES DOWN, DAMAGE BY
HURRICANE NOT KNOWN.
Late Reports Swell List OF
Victims.

NEW ORLEANS, July 22.-The full
toll of life and property exacted by the
hurricane which swept the western
gulf coast yesterday may not be known
for several days. Tearing down tele-
graph wires and destroying other
means of communication with the out
side world. the hurricane swept along
the gulf shore from points in Came
ron Parish, La, to almost the south
western extremity OF Texas. =
As far as can now be ascertained,
the storm vented its ~fiercest force on
the city Of Galveston. There the sea
wall kept back the waters. Reports re-
ceived from there indicate that the loss
of life is confined to the ten unfortun-
ates caught in the gale on Tarpon pier.
That loss of life and property damage
have been caused at other points along
the Texas coast and possibly in Came
ron Parish, La, is the belief now enter
tanned. In Matagorda county. about
seventy-five miles southwest of Calves
ton. it is reported that several lives
have been lost. but at an early hour
today a confirmation of this report was
lacking.

PRIESTS ROUTED BY
FIRE; MANY IN DANGER.

NEW YORK, July 22.-The high
pressure system played a big part to-
day in saving the Church of ST. AL
phonsus, in West Broadway; the rec
tory, in which eighteen priests were
asleep, and three four-story tenements
occupied by many men, women and
children, when fire started On the
fourth floor of d. Arnould's candy fac
tory, at 1856 Canal street, at 4:10 o'clock
this morning. The loss is put at $10,-
900.
The fact that the fire did not get a
grip on the big church and neigibor-
ing tenements is due to the fine work
ing of the high-pressure system. There
was excitement for a while as the e
ants and the priests piled out into the
street. 1t was not Tong before the
