LIE PASSED IN ...
RATE HEARING
Attorneys for Railways and
Shippers Clash.
FUSS SOON BLOWS OVER

Comptroller of the Rock Island Says
Certain Figures Were UnintentionaI.
Iy Omitted, but the Attorney for
the Shippers Expressed a Different
View-CorsuI for Rock Island Road
at Once Passes "short and Ugly
Word"
Chicago, Sept. "a tense strain of
the railway rate hearing developed in
the midst of which Attorney e. B.
Peirce OF the Rock Island called At
torney F. B. James, representing Gin
cinnati shippers, a liar. Mr.. PIERCE
added that if Mr.. James was not sat-
isfed the matter could be continued
"outside"
Comptroller Nay of the Rock Island
was undergoing cross-examination by
Attorney James. The latter declared
that in one Of the tables introduced
by Mr.. Nay the total freight operating
revenue per mile and the total freight
operating expenses had been left out,
while both sets of figures appeared in
another similar table.
"Why were those figures left out?"
demanded Mr.. James.
Witness answered that the omis-
sion was undoubtedly accidental.
Mr.. James expressed a contrary
opinion with regard to an accident,
averring that he suspected an ute
rior motive.
Peirce Becomes Excited.
Mr.. PIERCE at this point jumped to
his feet and shouted: If that is your
opinion you are a liar"
THAT won't do at all, gentlemen"
interposed Examiner Browne, with
many raps Of his gavel Above the
din Mr.. PIERCE cried:
1--WE will not stand such insinua-
lions. We are here fairly and square,
ly and if the attorney is not satisfied
I will meet him outside"
At this there were Kisses from the
shippers and hand clippings from the
railroad contingent.
The storm spent itself without ref
erence to the gavel, and Mr.. Nay re-
sumed. The earnings of the Rock
Island proper were greater on an av-
erage than those of the whole system,
he stated. The subsidiary lines re-
duced the average, he said. Attorney
Thorne then read from a report of
the road to the Interstate commerce
commission. He said that the report
controverted the witness; that the
earnings of the system averaged more
than those of the railroad proper.

expression we all like to hear, and
when it is used in connection with

able for children and adults. Sold

Such Plays as "UncIe Toms Cabin"

and Special Writer, George Mary

lions for Legislative Betterment.

More freak legislation has been intro
duced in the Maryland legislature this
session than ever before in the history Of
that body, and the result is that the law
makers are struggling through bewild-
eTing maze Of proposed statutes pro-
hibiting almost everything under the sun.
And now a Baltimore newspaper CORE
spondent, who writes under the nom de
plume OF George Maryland Calvert. has
come TO the front with twenty-eight new
suggestions in the way of bills to worry
the harassed legislators. Calvert wants
Uncle Toms Cabin" and similar plays
calculated to stir up antagonism pro-
hibited in the State Of Maryland. He
says THE Clansman" has been prohibited
in the North, and that the Little Eva
melodrama is just as bad.
Against Tipping Practice.
Calvert also wants an anti-tipping bill
that viii be stringent enough to forbid
even the vulgarly affiuent TO slip coins In
the palms of menials in public places or
elsewhere. An anti-miscegenation act is
another Of his suggestions.
Some of his proposed laws follow:
An anti-tipping law to prevent the CIV
ing to and receiving Of money or other
valuable tips by hotel pOrters. walters.
