 San Francisco, Nov. 2S.-District Attorney Charles Fickert is face to face with the problem that rocked sporting San Francisco to its foun- dations just six months ago. He has been called upon to take legal action against the promoters of the fistic battle between Owen Moran and Battling" Nelson in the ring last Saturday.
 Hopes of the fight followers that tho Church Federation had rested content with its banishment from San Francisco of the Jeffries-Johnson pusilistic issue were rudely awakened when it was announced that letter had been received by the district at torney's office from J. E. White, at torney for the Federation, and chief exponuent of the anti-prize fight cam- paign, ill which it was set forth that if the newspaper accounts of the Mor- an-Nelson combat were true, a crime had been committed, and in- dictments should be forthcoming.

Chicago, Ill.. Nov. 28.-''There will be probably no change in the con- modity rate between Chicago and the Pacific coast and these rates carry practically eighty-five per cent of the traffic In the territory named" said J. c. Subbs, vce president and traf- fic director of the Hartman lines to- day.
 He said that the trans-continental rates on which it is proposed to ad- vance are those Or classes, which means shipments in less than car load quantities.
 These class rates, in line with all other freight charges throughout the country may go up, if the railroad men have their way, fifty cents per hundred pounds from Chicago, and one dollar from New York. But the entire proposition, of course, is sub- ject to the Commerce Commissions ruling, no tariff even having been fil- ed.

 Washington, D. C., Nov. 2S.-Inter- state Commerce Commissioner Clem- ents said today that the Commission is strongly in favor of the physical valuation of railroads as basis of determining freight rates.
 Before the Stocks and Bonds Con- mission, appointed under lauthority of the recent railroad law to investi- gate railway securities and advise the President as to the possibility of leg islation regulating the issue of stocks and bonds, MT. Clements as- serted that physical valuation must be the basis if any effort is to be made to control the issue of stocks and bonds. So far as the Interstate Commerce Commission was concern- ed, he said there was no diversity of opinion a to the necessity of such control, but the Commission had no united opinion as to how it should be done.
 The meeting today was the first public hearing held by the Railway Securities Commission, properly known as the Stocks and Bonds Commission.

 Another all-day session was held by the President, Secretary Norton and force of stenographers today. The message is beginning to take shape. It will not be a particularly long message and so far as it can be learned it will contain no novel fea- lures. Put in it's preparation the President has been compelled to go through mass of documents, study Of which has greatly retarded the ac, tual work of dictation.
 It has been an open problem Wheth- CT the President will discuss the Tariff in his message are Or make any CuCT6Ou. fTGSSuTS is being brought to bear upon him from both sides of the controversy. His personal inclination is to speak his mind about the Tariff and his hope is that some relief may be uad 1 from the objectionable schedules which he has already referred to. The solution of the problem will be left to the last and it is possible that it may not be finally disposed of until MT. 1 Taft has consulted with his Cabinet l on Wednesday. ygsqsx

Aero Club Says Reading of Biograph on Heighth Re-
 cord Was Incorrect.
J HNSTONE'S EST
Aviator will Soar Again at PhiladeI. phja te Make Geed-The
 Figures.

New York, Nov. 98-J. Armstrong Drexei, the multi-millioaairs aviator, will have to mako another attempt to break the worlds altitude record. It was announced today by the Aero Club of America that his heighth flight at Philadelphia last Wednesday does not constitute worlds record.
 The carefully corrected reading of the biograph, carried by the daring young aviator, gives him credit for only 9,450 feet. It was originally an- nounced that he had ascended to the distance of 9,790 feet. As a prev ious heighth record made by Ralph Johnstone was 9,714 feet, Drexel had apparently established a new world's $ record.
 But in the light of the corrected reading poor Johnstone's great feat still stands as the best altitude flight ever made. Drexel~ will make anoth- CT effort to establish a new world s record within short time at Phila- delphia.
