James it descended to Charles l.. at
whose coronation ut Sc0ne in 1888 it
played a distinct part. Once more did

and Ill meritcd death. for. with almost
his last breath upon the scaffold at
Whitehall. Charles bcqueathed 1t to
Bishop JuXon in trust for his son.
In due course of time the ring came
into the possession of James II. and
was carried away with him on his
flight to the continent. When. however
he was detained by the fishermen at
Sheerness. the ring. which had been
secretad in the kings underclothing
only escaped robbery by the luckiest
Of mistakes on the part Of the sailor
who searched him. Thus the ring was
passed on uninjured to James de-
Scendants till by beqUest of Cardinal
York It became the property of the

Sweeping Jurisdiction Given
The Commission by the
Garrard Measure.
CAN SUPERVISE UTILITIES
NO CORPORATION CAN BEGIN
CONSTRUCTION OF PLANT
WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A
PERMIT FOR THE SAME.

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 6.-The railroad
commission of Indiana is vested with
sweeping jurisdiction in the supervis-
ion of public utilities under the pro-
sentative Garrard Yesterday. The bill
extends to all utilities, with the excep-
ton of steam and interurban railroads.
The commission is given power to
supervise utilities furnishing telegraph
or telephone service, district tele-
graph service. street railway service
or those concerns which transmit
heat. light. water or power. electrical
current, steam. water, artificial Or nat
ural gas, or furnish public elevator or
warehouse service.
The bill carries with it a continuing
appropriation of $4,000 to carry out
the provisions during the existence of
the commission:
1t is provided in the bill that no util-
ity shall begin the construction of any
plant without first making application
to the commission and obtaining an
''indeterminate permit" which gives
streets and other public places, pro-
vided that the permit does not conflict
with the authority already vested in
the boards of public works, councils
or county commissioners to control
and regulate the location of telegraph
and electric light poles.
Commission to Investigate.
Before the commission grants the
permit it must first be satisfied, eth
err by an investigation or public
hearing, that the public convenience
and necessity require the granting of
the permit. In places where there is
already one or more utilities furnish
ing the same service, the bill requires
that the commission must satisfy it
self that the public convenience re-
quires the additional service. Thirty
days notice must be given by the COM
pany making application for the per-
nit and in cases where there is anoth-
er company furnishing similar service
that concern also must be given due
notice.
1t is also provided that the commits
and testing of meters or other appli-
ances used for measurement Of any
product furnished by the companies.
The consumers are also given the
| right to ask for a test Of their meters,

the event the meter is found to be cor
rect and the company to pay for it
provided the meter is incorrect.
The commission is given power to
fix and enforce maximum rates for ev-
cry class of service. In fixing the
rates the commission is directed to
take into consideration the cost to the
owner of the utility, the cost of main
tenance, etc. The owner or operator
of the utility may make complaint con-
corning the inadeQuacy of the maxi
mum rate fixed by the commission,
and upon the filing the commission is
directed to call a public hearing of
those concerned, when the merits of
the complaint will be determined

SPEECH

Washington. June 5.-Taking the
floor after Senator Aldrich had asked
for an aye and nay vote on the cot
ton cloth schedule today. Senator Dol
liver of Iowa made the senatorial
rafters ring with his denunciation of
the speech made by the Rhode Island
senator last night on that schedule.
Il desire to avoid any harsh crit
icisnt of what has been done" he
said, but | am not able to avoid
a plain. straightforward statement
of what this committee now asks the
senate to do.
Men are asked continued Mr..
Dolliver, ito cast their votes here not
upon the testimony but upon the au-
thority of the committee. and il be-
comes my duty to inquire into the
sacredness of that substitute for facts
and figures"
Mr.. Dolliver declared that the cot
ton duties had been increased in the
pending bill over those OF the Ding
ley law.
Ridiculing the possibility of
"equalizing' the rates without rails
ing some or lowering others, the Iowa
senator launched upon comparison
between the Dingley law and the
Wilson bill. He commented upon the
Dingley law aS interpreted by Mr.
Aldrich and by the appraisers.

That he hopes TO proceed with the
Grand Valley High Line canal prof.
ect without any unnecessary delay is
the message that Secretary of the
Interior Ballinger has sent to Gov.
Shafroth. of Colorado. in reply to the
urgent letter addressed to the secre-
tary by the governor some days ago
at the solicitation of |. n. Bunting
who was representing the Chamber
of Commerce of this city.
This morning Governor Shafroth
received the important letter from
Secretary Ballinger and he gave a
copy of this letter to Representative
William Weiser. of this city. who is
in Denver on business trip and who
called on the governor this morning.
The Sentinel secured a copy of the
letter by telephone from Mr.. Weiser.
IT contains statements of most sat
isfactory nature. The letter in full
follows:

Hon John F. Shafroth.
Denver. Colorado.
Dear Governor:
am in receipt of your letter of the
2Sth of May regarding, the Grand

There are certain preliminary
questions affecting this project under
consideration but it is anticipated
that. they will soon be disposed of.

Up 10 this afternoon there had
been no new and important develop
ments in Washington concerning the
High Line canal, though there is n
possibility that the full text of the
attorney generals report on the Gar
field contract viii be made public.
The reports to the effect that the at
torney generals decision. which was
delivered to Mr.. Ballinger some days
ago, holds that the contract is not
valid under the reclamation act are
generally accepted as true, and nc
denial of the report has been made
by any of the officials of the de-
partment of the interior. The dis
patches and reports were based on
splendid authority. II is too bad
that "our Mr. Sheldon Cline" did not
secure the substance of the attorney
generals report first. He will an
