More than THTty Years.

ALBANY. March 2.-The formal order of the Public
Service Commission. granting the application of
the Erie Railroad Company for authority to issue
$30O00OOO of per cent collateral gold bonds, was
entered by the commission to-day.
The company had applied for modification of

the commissions original announcement of Feb
ruary Il request made for change in the re-
quirement that less than 80 per of the in
terest coupons the general linen and convertible
bonds accruing during the next five years should
be exchanged for the bonds so as 20 require
only 60 per cent of such bonds. The commission
denied this request.
The company had also asked that the limitation
until August 1 be removed relative to the time al
lowed for tie exchange Of the bonds The COM
mission permits an extension until October 1.
The main points Of difference in the final order
are:
The term Of the mortgage shall not be more than
thirty nor less than twenty years. The collateral
indenture to be approved by the commission is re-
quired to contain suitable covenants embodying the
exchanges Of the bonds for coupons and new.

changed from August /. 19O9 to October !, 1863 or
such later date as the commission may prescribe.

from income during any six months Of the five
years in excess Of the amount required to equal in
tercst coupons funded which would have accrued

Commerce Commission Decides
Spokane Railroad Case.

Washington, March 2-The Interstate Conrls-r.
Commission to-day decided the two points in III,
complaint filed by the city OF Spokane against tb.
Northern Pacific. the Great Northern and the Union
Pacific which were;
Ffrst-That the rates from eastern points TO Soo-
kane higher than 10 Seattle more distant
point
second-That the rates 70 Spokane were in
herentIy unreasonable.
On the first point defendants maintained that
water competition Delled them TO charge the
rates in effect Seattle and that. therefore they
might charge higher rate to Spokane without vio-
lating the long and short haul provision without
discriminating against Spokane under the law
The commission sustains the contention Of ths
defendants in this respect and holds that the rates
to Spokane. although higher than TO Seattle are
not unlawful
On the second point the commission sustains ths
petitioner and holds that the rates fron eastern
points to Spokane unjust and unreason-
able. It reduces class rates from St. Paul SDo-
kane 16 % per cent and makes substantially tbs
same reduction from Chicago to Spokane. Rates
east of Chicago are not dealt with
The decision if applied In principle to all COM
mOdites and to all interior points, must work
revolution in rates from eastern points of origin
to all interior tTdnscO1tnentaI territory. and. in
that view, il is Of the most farreaChing deCi-
sions ever rendered by the commission
