would cost to construct and operate a
railroad devoted entirely to intrastate
business No such railroad ever was
constructed or operated. and 1t Is rea-
sonably safe to say that no such rail-
road ever will be constructed or per-
manently operated. Immediately upon
its completion. upon the cheapest pos
sible plan, with reference solely to in
trast tate business, It would at once be-
come available for Interstate business.
and would Immediately have a value

Its value for intrastate business.

its potential and actual use for In

Again. the commission thinks 1t mis-

Interstate business Not Hurt.
Inasmuch, proceeds the opinion, as
the total receipts of the road from
Its strictly intrastate passenger bust
ness do not exceed 6 per cent OF its
total passenger traffic, and as the en-
tire passenger business is at an aver
age of 2.47 cents per mile and its
entire passenger business in Virginia
is at 2.35 cents mile, both intrastate
and interstate, the enforcement of the
2-cent passenger rate for strictly In
trastate business cannot very seriously
affect these average rates per mile
1t should be remembered In this con.
nection that various Communication rates
play a part in the ascertainment of
the averages.
Therefore the commission could not
see It's way clear to grant the increase
to 8 cents per mile. AT the same time
1T felt satisfied that the road should
enjoy the ~ cent rate given to nearly
all the other large railroads operating
in this State.

JIM CORBETT, WHO WILL HELP JEFF TRAIN.
fries to "hold back" because, soft and
out Of condition as he is, Corbett would
not be physically able to stand any
hard slamming. To last any length Of
time the training bouts between JEFF
fries and Corbett would have to be
'easy," and it isn't the light and airy
form Of exercise that JEFF requires.
What he does need is pile Of out
door running to improve his wind and
harden the muscles Of his legs.
In the sparring time what Jeffries
needs is the rough, slambang article,
the kind Corbett cannot give him. By
indulging in bouts Of that description
JEFF can ''let everything CO." If he
were forced to hold back it would not
only throw him out of his hitting
stride, but affect his judgment Of dis
lance as WELL He wants to be handi-
capped in no way when he's boxing.
The benefit will be derived when he
can tear in and slam away to his
hearts content. Fighting power and
ability to hit truly are the things he
likely will strive for in the gymna-
SUM. If he boxed lightly he could
not improve his eye, because hitting
in an ''easy" bout and banging in
"hard" one are two different PROPOSE
tons.
Everything with him must be just
exactly as it will be in regular fight.
In fact, it would not be bad idea II
he engaged in three or four actual
fights In the training quarters. There
are men who could be secured, and it
would give him fine line on himself.
Then If he found any weak points
he'd have ample time to strengthen
them. Rough, hard, strenuous work
that is the story. And that Is why
Jim Corbett, decent fellow that he Is
and sincere In his intentions to help
JEFF in every possible way, can be Of
very little help to him.

CAN CORBETT
HELP JEFFR|ES?
Doubt Whether He viii Be Of
Much Service to Californian.
CAN GIVE NOTHING PHYSICALLY
In Training Bouts With Corbett jeff
Will Have to Go Easy-latter Needs
Several Rough and Ready Sparring
Partners to Help Him.

One dislikes to take Responding
view of things and at the same time
assail belief that is entertained by
SO many, but in view Of all this jour-
nalistic hullabaloo about Jim Corbett
training Jeffries for his mixup with
Jack Johnson and incidentally help
ing him reclaim the worlds heavy
weight championship from the negro
one is forced to ask. How and in what
manner can Corbett bring about JEFF
fries rejuvenescenceY
In his day there is no question
that Corbett was the cleverest and fast
est boxer in the ring. His footwork
was superb, and he was a great ring
general even if he didn't always main
tain a cool head. But those sterling
qualities Of the boxer Of a decade ago
can be Of no possible help to Jeffries
today, who Is to do battle with the
best black man that ever pulled on a
glove and one who outstrips Corbett
himself in his palmiest days.
It should be borne earnestly in mind
that the intent of this article is not to
take away anything from Corbett, to
question his ability as trainer and
his wisdom as an adviser or to impugn
his motives in gratuitously volunteer
ing to work with Jeffries. The inten-
ton is to destroy In the minds of JEFF
fries unthinking admirers the false
hope that Corbett can fit him physical
ly for the coming match and assist
him materially in regaining the title
he relinquished nearly six years ago
The sum and substance of it is. Cor.
bett simply can't.
Corbett has nothing he can give JEFF
fries. Advice? Perhaps he might be
able to give him a point or two. But
It isn't advice Jeffries needs at this
stage of the game. Physically there
is absolutely no way in which he can
help Jeffries. Corbett will be forty
four his next birthday. He started
fighting twenty-five years ago. 1t will
be seven years in August since he en-
gagged in his last bout-the one with
Jeffries on the coast. His showing in
that bout scarcely could be called up
to the standard. 1t is proverbial that
Jeffries actually outboxed him in that
contest. Even if he attempted to box
with JEFF in training it would be detri-
mental rather than beneficial to the
latter. 1t would be necessary for JEFF
