RATES ARE SAID TO
BE UNREASONABLE
How to Determine

How to Determine
Z. In determining what will be rea-
sonable rates for the future the COM
mission may properly consider that UNI
der the rates in effect a large surplus
has been accumulated, but it should
not make rates for the purpose of dis
tributing the surplus to the public.
s. The Importance of the question
whether a railroad shall be allowed to
earn a return upon the unearned mere
ment represented in the value of its
right OF way is illustrated by the facts
In this case, but is not discussed or de-
cided.
9. Upon an examination of the histo-
ry of these properties. the cost of re-
producing them at the present time,
the original cost of production, the
present capitalization, and the manner
in which that capitalization has been
made; held that the earnings of both
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific in recent years have been ex-
cessiVe.
TO- The only duty of the commission
in this case Is to establish reasonable
rates from eastern points of origin to
Spokane, and in so doing it can only
act upon those rates specifically called
to its attention, although it must have
in mind the effect upon the revenues of
these companies of resulting reductions
upon other commodities and at other
points than at Spokane.
H. The rates attacked are class rates
from ST. Paul and Chicago to Spokane,
and commodity rates upon thirty-four
enumerated articles. Glass rates are
established from st. Paul to Spokane
which are 16 2-3 per cent less than
those now in effect, and class rates
from Chicago to Spokane are made
higher than those from St. Paul by GER
tain named arbitraries.
-. In case of all commodities except
five the present rate from Chicago to
Seattle is established as a reasonable
olcal rate from st. Paul TO Spokane.
Upon five articles somewhat similar
rates are fixed. Rates on these COM
modities from Chicago to Spokane are
made 16 % per cent above those from
st. Paul. Neither class nor commodity
rates are named from points east of
Chicago.
The order will be made effective
May 1.

HILL AND HARTMAN AFTER

LATTER PLANS TO BUILD FROM

Rivalry for Puget Sound Trade Ex-
pected to End in Active Conn.,
petition Soon-Reports
Confirmed
1Rv Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore, March 2.-Reports
are that the rivalry between e. IL.
Hartman and j. ]. Hill for the traffic
of the Puget sound district was about
TO assume the form of an active cam
paign by the beginning of construction
on Ha1Timan's proposed line from Port
land to Seattle have now received SEMI
official confirmation.
A new map of the Hartman lines in
the northwest, which has just been is
sued, indicates the project to parallel
the Northern Pacific under the name of
the Oregon & Washington railroad,
which has been talked of for several
years, is about to be realized.
1t was learned yesterday however,
that the plans have been changed to the
extent that the road is to be built from
Portland north only as far as Tacoma,
instead of TO Seattle, and that the
Union Pacific has reached an agree
ment with the Chicago, Milwaukee q
St. Paul railway whereby the new line
of the Pacific coast extension is to be
used from Tacoma to Seattle.
To Begin Soon
1t is reported that actual construc-
ton is to be started within few
weeks.
The Hartman lines have long sought
an entrance to Seattle from the south,
nave Deen DlOchtu III LllGli elblCilAINa
to secure through ticketing, or through
routing facilities, by the refusal of the
Northern Pacific to participate. The
latter has insisted on getting the long
haul from the east to Seattle.
The question of whether the Northern
Pacific shall be compelled to open the
Portland gateway is now pending be-
fore the interstate commerce COM
mission, but Hartman would derive
many manifest advantages from hay
ing his own rails through Portland re-
CARELESS of the commissions decision.
Harrimans efforts to extend his lines
into Washington are said to be in large
measure retaliation for Hills invasion
of the Oregon territory with the Port
land, Spokane & Seattle road, which is
soon to be opened for traffic. Tbs
Portland Seattle line is only part OF
his plan for the development for the
northwest, however, as lines have al
ready been surveyed, and probably will
soon be started to complete the new
Shasta route from klamath Falls tc
the main line at Natron, Ore, and fol-
the proposed routes across central Ore
gon and along the Deschutes river.

DELAY CODIFICATION
OF PENAL STATUTES
DEMOCRATIC SENATORS DENY
FILlBUSTERlNG
Frequent Demands for Roll Call lndi-
cate Legislation Will Have
Slow Progress This
Session

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Develop-
ments today were unfaVorable for the
completion of the legislation for the
codification of the penal laws. When
the conference report on the Dill was
laid before the senate the Democratic
senators disavowed all intention or nll-
clustering, but by their frequent de-
mands for the calling of roll and by
other indications of opposition they
made it evident that the report would
not have easy sailing.
Senator Hepburn, in charge Of the
bill. declared that this procedure was a
filibuster.
II am advised he said, that the
objection to the adoption of this re-
port is based upon the contention on
the part of the minority that congress
shall abandon legislation dealing with
offenses against the elective franchise"
He added that the minority demand
ed as the price of their approval of the
report that the senate should recede
from all the legislative restrictions for
the purpose of making effective the
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
to the constitution.
Teller Makes Speech
During the reading of the conference
report on the penal code bill in the
senate today, Senator Teller spoke on
the Panama canal. He commended the
sentiment in congress had been for a
sea-level canal at Panama until the
Spooner act of 1902 was adopted
Since then every six months the plan
for the canal had been changed, and
each time the new plan was heralded
as the very best one that could be
adopted
They had moved the location of the
dam from Bohillo to Gatun because
they found the rock they had depended
upon was a mere boulder. which, to-
gether with driftwood, had been washed
there at some early period.
The president, he asserted, had sent
to Panama only those engineers known
to be in favor of a lock project
Senator Kittredge remarked that the
site of the Gatun dam had been changed
eleven times.
Senator Hopkins declared the pres
ent foundation was "as solid as the
Rock of Ages"

FIGHT ORDINATION
 OF MINISTER

JOHNSTOWN, N. r., October 19.-- One of the sharpest theological contro. versies since the trial of the Reverend Charles A. Briggs, of Union Seminary, on charges of heresy will come to a head at the annual meeting of the New York Presbyterian Synod, which con. vened here today for three days ses- sion. The Synod will be called upon to consider the protest made by certain ministers of the New York Presbytery against the latter's action in allowing the Revertnd Archibald A. Black to become a minister. Mir. Black was one of three candidates for the pulpit, who upon examination refused to subscribe to certain orthodox views expressed on cardinal Scriptural doctrines, such as the story of the Garden of Eden, the Immaculate Conception and the mirae- les. The outcome of the protest, should it be upheld by the Synod, may be q decision prohibiting the Presbytery from licensing any more graduates from Union Theological Seminery, from which Mir. Black and other candidates of heteroxody, came up for examina- tion.

The mystery of the long series of cotton warehouse fires in Liverpool has at last been to certain extent solved The solution, though at present largely speculative, is extraordinary.
 Weeks ago the police had made up their minds that the fires, which all 1 occurred in one small area, and in which there were many elements of sim. ilarity, were not accidental. A reward of 800 pounds was offered for the dis. eovery of the ineendiary, but though special patrols watched the affected area, and the debris left after each fire was carefully searched, no tangible clue was discovered, and the tale of damage continued to increase by tens of thousands.
 Tn the complete deadlock 10 which investigators were brought the mystery resembled that of the murders in the Rue Morgue. In that case the criminal was a monkey; in this case the incen- diary is eat. 1t is an innocent looking tabby, little more than a kitten. The fire which led to the discovery was a comparatively small one, at a one-stor- jed warehouse in Luton street. It broke out soon after s clock on Monday evening, and was almost immediately discovered. The fire brigade were up a few minutes after, and succeeded in putting out the blaze before it had time to spread, with the result that out of 5000 bales, scarcely 100 were damaged
 When the last smoulderings had been extinguished the fire salvage men be- gan their usual systematic examination of the place. In one wall they found that two bricks had been recently re- moved, leaving an aperture through which mans arm could be easily in- trodueed. Crouching close in a dark recess, one of them found a cat The animal was in very scared and ex- .eited state, but at length one of the men managed to draw it out from it's place of sanctuary. It was then found that dangling from it's tail was about yard of thick string, at the end of which was tied a bundle of paper, very much charred It is believed that this tail attachment was soaked with oil and lighted, the cat then being intro duced through the hole in the wall.
 It is considered highly possible that some, at all events, of the other fires, were caused in similar manner, and the police attach great importance. to the discovery.
