UNION PACIFIC
 CONTROLLING FACTOR
It Took the Place of United States
 Steel in the Market.

New York, July 17-Union Pacific usurped the place in the market today held for several days by U. $. Steel. Union Pacific scared to a new high recOrl price on animated business but without any authentic explanation for the rise. The recent general rise in the market included stocks held in the Union Pacific treasury and several of these are subjects, in their turn. of rumors of coming dividend increases which will add to the Union Pacific income. That company in common with Southern Pacific stockholders, was a subscriber for its full quota of Southern Pacific convertible bonds which were allotted to stockholders at 96 and have since scld above 105.
 United States Steel touched 8. bet tering it's record price by a fraction, but profit taking in the stock was plainly manifest under cover of the Union Pacific movement. Bonds were firm Total sales, par value, S3,336. 000. L. s. 2s have declined F and the Is coupon F per cent on call during the week.

MAKING PROGRESS.

Washington, b. C., July 1.-The conferees of the two houses are ad- justing their differences with a reas- onable degree of rapidity. They have been in session about a week and have made quite as much progress as the more conservative of them had expect ed they would. They have gone so far. as to make it reasonably certain that any bill which they could report would make some concessions to those who demand a duty on raw material.
 The fact that the president has taken so positive a stand has had the effect of shifting the controversy from the two branches of congress between themselves to the president and con gress as a whole. Henceforward 1t looks as If the question would be not what the house will concede to the senate or the senate to the house, but how much the president will demand, and how much the conferees can con ,cede and still make sure of the accept ance of the conference report by the two houses of congress.
 Great difficulty in meeting the pres ident's demands, if they are as ex- treme in the direction of free raw ma terial as is feared by those interested, will be encountered Tn the senate, where the raw material states have a better proportionate representation. In the house the tendency is toward the presidents position. While the best personal good feeling between the White House and the capitol exists, the interests involved are so large that it is evident that congress will not yield readily, and it is very doubtful whether the president could get free raw material if he should demand it.
 The president today received a large number of telegrams and letters of congratulation regarding the statement of his position on the tariff given out yesterday. The president also has yer bal congratulations from members of congress.

THEY CAPTURED TOLL HOUSE
And Collected Toll to the Amount of $25,OOO, After ward Locking Their Vic tins Up-Two Govern ments Agitated.

Berlin, Germany, July 17.-Brigands held the highway between Augustomo and Leipsk on the Russo German frontier all day and captured fifty or sixty travellers, whom they robbed of large sums of money. Most of the vic tins were horse dealers on their way to the annual horse market at Liepsk It is estimated that a total of $25,O0O was taken by road agents, who are believed by the authorities tO be the same men who committed numerous outrages and robberies throughout the wide district frontier.
 One of the recent exploits of the rob bers was to capture a toll gate house. They bound the keeper and his wife and stationed one of their number, dressed in the gate keepers uniform. beside the gate. Peasants were allow ed to pass on payment of the usual fee, but when a prosperous looking traveller cam along and the man was attacked by the bandits concealed in the house.
 The victims were bound, robbed of their cash and locked in the attic of the gate keepers house or an out building After forty persons had been robbed the bandits gathered together the best horses and made their es cape. but before they left they shot, in sight of the others, a man who had offered resistance. --
 The son of the gate keeper returned in the afternoon and released the pris- oners. The German government has taken up the matter with the Russian authorities.

 MAKE HASTE Controversy Has Shifted To-
 ward White House WHAT IS LIKELY ID HAPPEN
Though Presidents State ment Has Practically As sured Downward Revi- sion There Will Be No Free Raw Materials.

Washington, D. C., July 17.--Presi- dent Taft will win his fight for free or reduced rates of duty. Nearly every member of the conference tariff bill conceded this today. The indications are that when the new tariff bill be- comes a law rates on the articles which the president designated to come in free will be as follows: Iron ore, free (present rate cents per ton); oil, free (now protected by countervailing ddty); hides, 716 per cent advalorem (present rate 15 per cenD; coal, 45 cents a ton (present rate 67 cents); lumber, probably s1.25 on rough, senate rates on finished This would be a material reduction throughout the lum- Der schedule
 For several days members of con- gress have been going to the White House Not few came away con vinced that the president was right in insisting on lower duties They also acknowledged that any reduction of rates pending in the bill on these articles would amount to an adminis- traitor triumph. In effect, the presi- dent was told by the conferees that if iron ore, oil, coal. hides and lumber are put on the free list, or rates re- duced below the figures adopted by the senate, he would have to get the votes"
 That a change in sentiment has talk en place in the senate in the matter of free iron ore and free oil was d mat ter of common gossip about the capitol ...I, nFl hides, it was stated, would be cut In half
 President Taft will win another de- cided victory in the Philippines free trade proposition. iThe subcommittee has decided to permit the free admis- sion of 15O,OOO,OO0 cigars annually. as requested by the president, instead of 70, 900 OO0 under the senate amendment at the instance of IAFollette. It is eX- pected the Philippines section will be adopted by the conferees Monday. With the exception of rice and the limitations placed upon tobacco and sugar, all articles of growth or pro duct of manufacture in the Philippines will be admitted free.
 There is nc longer any question that the corporation tax amendment will be accepted It will tax the net earn ings of corporations organized for profit at the rate of 1 per cent. Dur ing the forenoon session of the con ference three reductions were made on women's and childrens dress goods, tops and yarns The metal schedule, with the exception of iron ore and few of it's products, has practically been agreed upon.
 The conferees adjourned at o'clock until Monday.

Arizona Railway Commission Brings Matter to Attention
 of the S t.. |.
Startling Comparison of the Rates Showing the Diff faculties Under Which the Citizens of Globe Labor Futile Letter to Railroa Officials

The Arizona Railroad commission held special meeting yesterday. the full board being present, for the pur- pose of taking action in the matter of an effort to secure better freight rates for the city of Globe. For long time the commission has been convinced that Globe was entitled to a readjust- ment of schedules. some of the rates being very negotiable. Pursuant to the law and the practice of the com mission the subject was taken up with the Southern Pacific and Gila Valley. Globe and Northern officials and it was hoped they would undertake a re- adjustment of rates themselves. They were given until yesterday to take some action. As the time expired without action the board directed its attorney, George J. Stoneman. to pre- pare a complaint setting forth the facts. for filing with the interstate commerce commission as early as practicable.
 It is shown by figures herewith pre- scented that the rates generally need readjusting. many of them being eX- tortiOnate and unfair. On some classes the rate from coast points to Globe is

Kansas City, Mo, July 17.-After reading the White House statement of MT. Taft's position on the tariff, W. J. Bryan, who passed through here to- day en route to EmpOria, Kas.. said he considered the presidents statement rather unequivOcal. Bryan said:
 Tt all depends upon the construc- ton to be placed upon the presidents words. The house did not make a downward revision of the tariff. The acceptance of anything like the house bill can not result in a reduction of the tariff"

 Because of complaint filed by Globe parties. the commission begs to sub- init for your consideration certain facts relative to rates from California points to Globe. Arizona.
 A complete statement showing the comparison of all rates in question seems unnecessary: we will however. give a full list of all the commodities on which a reduction of rates is asked and will draw a comparison of rates on a few of these commodities in order to make clear the grounds on which a reduction of rates is requested.

MORNING, r,

Class rates from San Francisco and Los Angeles to Globe are made by combining rates applying to and from Bowie and in every instance greatly exceed rates from same points to El Paso. Class rates named to Fl Paso have been in effect many years and are not carried with a view of meeting competition at Fl PasO with rates from St. Louis, New York or other eastern points. as the rates from the west are and always have been higher than the rates from the east.
 It is evident that the carrier con siders the rates to Fl Paso reasonable, Just and remunerative and complain ant therefore contends that class rates from San Francisco and Los Angeles to Globe should be no higher, since the distance to Globe is some seventy five miles shorter and further con tends that rates on the various com modities listed above should be the same to Globe as are published to Fl Paso and for the same reason, sug- gesting that an exception may be made of those commodities on which lower rates are named to Fl Paso than to Bowie and that rates on these excepted commodities be the same to Globe as may be named to Bowie.
 In support of these conclusions the commission begs to submit a few com parisons.
 The rate per ton per mile on pota- toes .073 cents Bowie to Globe, to twelve and eight tenths times greater than the rate .0057 in effect from San Francisco to Chicago
 On dried fruit 129. wine .OsS and pickles .113 the rate Der ton per mile is twenty times greater than the cor responding trans continental rates of .0061. .0042 and .0055.
 Your Bowie to Globe rate is seven teen times greater on dried fruit, in sacks, eighteen times greater on canned goods; 226 times greater on oils: thirty times greater on sugar and THIRTY-THREE times greater on rice than east bound trans continental rates per ton per mile.
 It is admitted that low trans con- tinental rates are necessary to meet water competition: but these rates are remunerative. otherwise they would be therefore it is evident that rates Bowie to Globe from twelve to thirty-t three times greater are unjust and unreasonable and therefore unlaw- full. and that the rates from San Fran cisco and Los Angeles to Globe are also unlawful as Sec tion l of the Interstate Com merce Act provides; and every unjust and unreasonable charge for such ser vice or any part thereof is prohibited and declared unlawful"
 The commission has requested me to suggest an early conference to be held either in it's offices at the Capitol or in San Francisco as may best suit your convenience. it being the desire of this body to bring about an ad- justment, if possible. without the loss of time that must. necessarily occur if the case Is carried to the interstate commerce commission
 Soliciting your early consideration of these matters. beg to remain.
 Yours very truly.
