UNJUST IN ONE RATE.
UNJUST IN THEM ALL
So Hold Interstate Commerce Com
mission i'm Ruling Affecting Pacific
Coast Terminals

WASHINGTON, Dec. 2S.-Wben a
railroad rate is considered unreason-
able in specific case in a given ter
ritory, 1t is also unreasonable from
all other points in the territory that
took the same rate on all traffic trans
ported under similar circumstances
and conditions. This principle was
announced by the Interstate Com
Rerce commission in decision hand
ed down today in the case of the
Standard Hardwood Co., against the
Southern Pacific Co.
The decision affects large number
of cases involving transportation of
hardwood from points between the
Mississippi river and the Pacific coast
terminals. The rate of SIS cents per
hundred pounds being unreasonable
from Mississippi points to the Pacific
terminals, the commission held this
to be prima facie that that rate was
unreasonable TO all points in the same
territory which took the same rate on
traffic transported under similar cir
cumstances and that rs cent rate
should be applied to all these points.

ELK AND DEER
ARE STARVING
ANIMALS SUFFER IN WyO WING
Wyoming Game Warden Reports on
Yellowstone District-Snow shuts
OF the Food.

LANDER, Wyo.. Dec. estate
Game Warden Nowlin is authority
for the statement tnat the great herds
of elk and deer that range through
the southern parts of the Yellowstone
Rational park country are starving
and that unless some action is taken
by the state of Wyoming, most of the
animals will be dead before the end
of this winter,
The park herds of elk and deer
number several thousand and ordi-
narily find good grazing on the lower
slopes of the mountain during the
winter season. This winter. however,
the fall of snow has been unusually
heavy and the animals have been
driven to the valleys in their search
for food. There the conditions are
even worse than on the mountain
slopes. for the herds of the sheep and
cattle men have eaten the grass to
the roots.
Fed BY tho Ranchmcn.
Ranchmen of the Jackson Hole
country, southwest of here, have fed
the elk and deer, but they will be I'M
able to do so much longer. as they
need all of their hay and grain for
their own stock. Driven in by hunger
and the deep snow the elk and deer
mingle with the domestic animals and
invade the feed lots of the ranches.
fighting for the provender thrown out
to the cattle and sheep.
Three and four years ago when a
tains and valleys in the Jackson Hole
country and when the locality was
more sparsely settled than now inn
mense herds of elk and deer came
down out of the mountains and as
tame as cattle, mixed with the herds
At that time hundreds of elk were
killed for their antlers and their
teeth.
Some of the so-called hunters went
even farther and, following the elk
until they became stuck in the deep
snow, overcame them, Knocked out
their teeth, the front ones, the only
ones having any value, and then left
The animals TO starve, for with these
teeth gone they werG unable to croI
the grass or eat the hay that was
thrown to them by the ranchmen who
took pity upon them.
Brutality Is Stopped.
Finally the matter was called to
the attention of the state authorities
and the practice stopped, but not I'M
til hundred of the animals had died
Of starvation.
Last winter the herds of elk and
deer again come down from the
mountains in large numbers and the
ranchers of the Jackson Hole country
fed them with hay and grain, after
ward being reimbursed by the state
This winter, however, the men are
unable to do so, as owing to the early
approach of winter and a shortage of
forage most of them have little more
than enough feed to carry their stock
through until spring.
Even with the illegal killing of ell,
and deer by poachers during the sum-
mer. under the protective laws OF
Wyoming, the herds are increasing
but if some protection is not fur
nished during the winter they will
soon disappear

CHICAGO, Dec. 2S.-Perham ar
rived here today and will confer to-
morrow with Vice Presidents Connors
and Heberling of the switchmens
union before leaving for Washington
u statement was issued tonight by
the general managers association re-
garding Perham's trip which says an
investigation by the interstate COM
merce commission as to whether the
railroads are moving traffic is wholly
unnecessary, as the railroads will
save anyone the trouble of going to
Washington for this purpose if they
care to make their own investiga ton.
The statement says it is not feared
that the strike will spread, as it is not
at all likely that the American Fed
Grafton of Labor will give official
sanction to an illegal strike.
