Youth Stays Three Cougars.

Spokane-Roy Peters, 19-year-
old lad from St Maries, known near
his home as "Fighting Bob Evans"
walked into the county commission
er's Office at Occur d'Alene, Idaho,
with the skins of three big cougars,
all of which he had killed with the
aid of his famous cougar dog.
The largest of the skins, that of
a male cougar, was nine feet from
tip to tip, but those of the two fe-
males were nearly as large. Peters
killed the cougars near Santa, in the
loops of the st. Maries river. The
hound had trailed the animals
through the snow and freed them.
1t took the boy but 20 minutes to
bring all three down.
Besides the bounty Of SIS each
given him by the county commission
ers, the boy will realize from $40 to
SIS each for the skins, making the
adventure worth to him SIS or more.

Timber Land BuncO Bait.

Seattle--Lured by promises made
by land lOcators operating in Seat

of innocent and ignorant men have
been induced to part with consider
able sums of money in the belief that
they would be able to obtain prior
rights as homesteaders and timber
land claimants in filing entries on
land in Oregon involved in the suit
brought by the United States depart
ment of justice against the Southern
Pacific. The charge made by the
locators is $500, of which $3.50 is
paid down and the hOmesteaders are
told that they will obtain first rights
should the land revert to the gov
eminent. This is the land involved
in the sensational attack of Presi
dent Roosevelt on Senator Tillman
a few weeks ago. The local United
States land office receives inquiries
every day regarding these lands, the
inquirers believing that the land is

KEEL OF BIG WARSHIP LAID
Historic Date Chosen for Event in
Brooklyn Navy Yard.

New York, March 9.-Ceremonies
almost equal to those of a launch
ing marked the laying of the keel of
the new battleship Florida at the
Brooklyn navy yard today. The &C.
casion was marked by the presence
of a large number of invited guests
from Washington, New York and
Brooklyn
Today's date is a memorable one
in the history of the navy. On March
9, 1862, the Monitor, which was con-
structed in Brooklyn, fought the
Merrimac in Hampton Roads.
The Florida and her sister ship,
the Utah, will be the two most pow
erful vessels Of the United States
navy and will be equal to any afloat.
They will be 25,00O-ton vessels.
The keel of the, Utah was recently
laid at Camden, n. J. She is being
constructed by private shipbuilding
firm, and there is great rivalry be-
tween her builders and the navy
yard here in regard to the time of
completion of the two ships.
There is already Florida, a coast
defense monitor, on the navy list,
but she will have to yield the name
to the battleship.

Seattle-It is learned that the
general staff of the army is serious
ly considering removal of the head
quarters of the department of the
Columbia from Vancouver to Seattle.
General Bell, chief of staff, says
that, in view of the growing import
ance of army posts in Alaska and
the large Shipments of supplies to
those posts, the headquarters should
be more centrally located than at
present, and he also believes they
should go to Seattle. The officers OF
the department of the Columbia are
said to be strongly in favor Of re-
moval to Seattle and have so recon-
mended. Indeed, it seems that a
movement to bring about removal
was started by them.

COMMISSION SAYS
RATES ARE HIGH
SPOKANE AND COAST POINTS
DESERVE REDUCTIONS.
CASE is FULLY Reviewed
Text of Decision by Commission Is
Exhaustive-Hill Railways
Are Hard Hit.
CASE is FULLY reviewed

Portland, Or, March 9.-One OF
the most important rate decisions
rendered in years is that just an
nounced by the interstate commerce
commission in the Spokane rate case.
The decision is regarded as far
reaching one and is believed to mark
an epoch in rate regulation IN the
United States. 1t is predicted that
the recent decision of the commits
sion will overturn the present rate
system west of the Missouri river
and cause general readJustment
of railroad tariffs between that
waterway and the Pacific Coast
That the rates of the railroads
are too high seems to be the key
note of the decision. The commits
sion orders a reduction of 16 2-3
per cent in class rates from the
Middle West to Spokane, and 1t is
seen that the effect of the decision
will be to lower rates to Coast ter
minals as we'll. However, the theory
Of lower rates to Pacific tideWater
because of ocean competition from
the East is sustained.
The commission held that the
rates are too high as shown in the
earnings of the railroads them
selves Considering the original cost
and capitalization of the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern, it was
declared that the earnings of the two
companies in recent years have been
excessive.
Commodity rates to Spokane from
Chicago are fixed at the present ter
minal rate to Seattle from st. Paul
on 29 of the "a commodities named
in the complaint filed by Spokane.
Upon the remaining five commodities
somewhat higher rates are fixed.
Rates on all these articles from Chi
cago to Spokane are made 16 2-3 per
cent above those from St. Paul.
