CANADIAN r. r. COMMISSION
CLAIMS JURISDICTION
Ru,es That 1t Has Jurisdiction Over
Through Traffic From Canada
to UriteJ States

OTTAWA, Ont, June 19-The Can.
adam Railway commission ruled TODAY
that it has jurisdiction over the rates
charged on through traffic originating
in Canada and destined to a point in
the United States, or originating in
the United States and destined for
Canada.
The ruling was made in the case
of an application by the Dawson
board of trade for an order declaring
that rates charged by the White Pass
and Yukon Railway were too high. The
railway carries traffic by boat to Skas
way and by. rail across part of Alaska
to Dawson traversing both American
and Canadian territory.
No decision on the rate question was
rendered, but the railway was ordered
to file a schedule of its through freight
tariffs for approval or modification
If the ruling is sustained on appeal
all through traffic across the United
States and the Canadian international
boundary line will be under the juris-
diction of the Canadian Railway COM
mission.

OF tae bridge is absolutely false.

GRAIN WAREHOUSES;
READY FOR CROP
HIGH Prices Serve to Denude Thi:
Section of Every Vesttge Of Last
Years Grain.

DAYTON, Wash, June 19.-The
grain warehouses in eastern Wash
ington and Oregon are cleared up and
ready to receive this years crop. Prac-
tically every bushel of last years crop
has been shipped out of the Inland
Empire according to B. F. Owsley OF
Colfax, district manager of Kerr
Clifford company Mr.. OWsley was
here Yesterday in connection with the
resignation of G. S. Harvey local
manager of the company, comprised OF
eastern Washington and Oregon and
cleared up and ready to receive this
years crop. Practically every bushel
of last years crop has been shipped
out of the Inland Empire according to
b. F. Owsley of Colfax, district man
ageT of Kerr Clifford company. Mr..
Owsley was here yesterday in connec-
ton with the resignation of G. S.
Harvey local manager of the company.
! He recently completed a trip of in
spection through his district, compris-
, ed OF eastern Washington and oregon
and is familiar with grain conditions
in this territory
Not in the history of farming, he
said, has the grain crop been cleaned
up so completely, due to the prevailing
high prices and the ability of the rail
i road companies to- furnish cars as
needed. The grain crop Of eastern
Washington, according to Mr.. OWsley
! will be one of the largest if not the
| largest ever harvested. Three con-
| ditions point to an unprecedented
crop: Unusually large acreage, q
large per cent of fall sown grain and
exceptionally heavy stooling, caused by
the backward spring retdrdng the
i early growth and inducing the roots
! to spread. In most sections of the
state harvest will be from a week tC
ten days later than ordinarily.
