HINT OF
PROBING SHIPPERS

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The examination
by the interstate commerce commits
sion into the reasonableness of the
increase in freight rates by western
railroads may take a broad and SEN
sational turn. The railroads intimate
that they will not only fight the ship
pers, but will attempt to show that
these shippers are In a syndicated
trust to reap all possible profits for
themselves. If the railroads are to be
probed, then they want the shippers
probed also, so that there may be re-
corded history as to profits. Whether
this is a lawyers bluff, framed to
bring a ~backdown from the shippers,
cannot be said with surety. There is
NJ indications of a deaf, but there is a
prospect of a good stiff fight. The rail-
road lawyers intimate that the ship
pers in every branch of trade have
underground agreements for their own
profit and that their attempt to make
freight rates is a further effort to swell
their wi ~profits-not to reduce prices
to the consumer.

Known among his friends as captain,
he is justly entitled to his sea-faring
reputatin. When the senator was
sixteen years of age he ran away
from his home, near Tuckerton, and
engaged as a cook on a coasting
schooner. From that time hntil he
was twenty-one he served in various
capacities on vessels hal sailed up
and down the Atlantic coast, and
meanwhile diligently applied himself
to the study of navigation One of
his first jobs after he qualified as
navigator was first officer on a pri-
vate yacht that made a trip around
the world. Next he was first officer
on the Corsair, J. Pierpont Morgan's
palatial private yacht. This onnec
ton led up to his being engaged as
captain Of the international cup-de-
fender Columbia. For eleven years
he commanded the Columbia and
several times sailed her to victory
in races that engaged the attention
Of people all over the world. Fol
several years past he has been In
charge of the private yacht Ariadng,
the private craft of James McLaugh-
lin, Jr., a Pittsburg millionaire con-
nected with the steel trust. Today
he holds a master mariners license
covering ocean waters in any part of

Is a member of the Union county

Howard A. Colby, a cousin of for

a group of influential men who are
making possible by their generosity
and efforts a unique institution
known as "The Family Of Self-Mas-
ters." The institution is located at
Union, Union county, and is doing a
phiIanthropical work which has re-
ceived the endorsement of many
men of prominence. Primarily the
home or colony has been established
for the following classes of men;
Those unable to find immediate en-
ployment; the one in middle life
who has lost his business; the In
temperate boy trying to control him
self; the country boy stranded in a
large city; the hayward rich mans
son; the man discouraged through
domestic troubles and the physically
and mentally broken down man.
What has already been done by the
promoters of this helpful home is
creditable beyond anything of its
kind yet established, and the results
In cases which have found refuge In
the kindly environment of the home
have spurred the workers in 1t to
press on toward higher attainment.
The work OF the institution Is en-
ttrely non-sectarian and simply rep
resents the man who has fallen
making an appeal to the man who
has won; the man who has made a
mistake and who wants to re-estab-
lish himself by faithful service to
others.

served as a member of the House of
