WILL AWAIT RULING
OF HIGHER COURT
Des MoInes Rate Case Similar
to Missouri River Case.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific Railway COM
pany and seven other railroad COM
panies interested in the order Of the
interstate commerce commission in.
stituting a new proportional rate be-
tween Chicago and Des Moines, have
withdrawn their suit to enjoin en-.
forcement of the order.
The withdrawal was due to a recent
decision by the United States circuit
court in the Missouri river rate case,
IN which the alleged power of the
commission to make new rates was
denied. The principle involved in the
Des Moines case is the same as that
decided in the Missouri river rate
cas- and will be reviewed by the SUI
preme court of the United States.
The decree in the Missouri river
rate case has been entered and i'm.
mediately following this action the
appeal to the supreme tribunal of the
country vas perfected. The appeal is
based almost entirely or the dissent
ing opinion handed down by Judge
Baker, who could not agree with his
majority colleagues in their decision

making power which it had sought
to enforce in the Missouri river rate

and Recover Most Of the Stolen

Lewistown, Pc, Sept. Ia lone

train on the Pennsylvania railroad at
The Narrows, eight miles east Of here,
robbed the express a Of $1,000 in
gold and escaped into the mountains.
Conductor Poffenberger of Harris
burg was shot through the hand In a
fight with the robber.
The train was stopped by q signal
cap at one Of the most inaccessible
points on the railroad and a masked
man stepped out Of the .blshes along
the. tracks sts aahhd d ceo 6's rs;i3 ths engineer lsee

The highwaynan moved along to
the baggage car, but could not open

dered the messenger to open the door.
The messenger obeyed.
The safe in the car contained $780,

the need of assistance in getting
away with the money the robber
called to the fireman of the train for
help and, still wearing his mask, gath
cred up some bags Of money and with
the fireman In the lead, also carrying
bags of coin, started up the mountain
side.
At a point about 900 yards up the
incline the two men laid down their
burden and the fireman was ordered
back to his train. At this juncture
two or three of the passengers, who
had been aroused by the unusual stop.
came on the scene and their presence
encouraged the trainmen to offer re.
siEtance.

damage he inflicted was to send q bull

and fed up the mountain, leaying
