RAILROADS MAY
CHARGE DEMURRAGE
COMMERCE. COMMISSION
RULES AGAINST SHIPPERS
Private Cars May Be Handled by
Roads Same As Other Cars-Ship-
pers Must Pay Demurrage If Left
Loaded on Side Tracks.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 13.-Rail-
roads have the right to impose such
demurrage charges on private cars as
they see fit, according to a decision
given today by the interstate CON-
merce commission. The finding was
given in a case brought by Proctor &
Gamble, soap manufacturers of Gin
cinnati, against the Cincinnati, Ham
ilton and Dayton railroad. The man.
ufacturers objected because the rail-
road assessed them for not unloading
their private cars on their own tracks.
The railroad argued that the cars
were used as a favor to the owners
and insisted that as soon as they were
taken by the roads for transportation
of goods they ceased to be private and
We're hauled subject to sales condi-
tions the same as any other cars. The
commission held that the railroads
are not forced to haul private cars
and therefore could impose such
conditions as they saw fit.

Iowa Senator Says Country Expects
Some Changes I'm Tariff Schedules

Washington, d. c., Dec. 13.-De-
Tending a resolution he introduced
yesterday for the modification of the

ule revision of the tariff from charg-
es that it was revolutionary and
drastic" Senator Cummins, in the sem
ate said today: 1T is not my pur-
pose to precipitate a tariff debate. !
believe however, some portions of the
tariff law are indefensible. l gave
close attention to the recent political
contest and found it the sentiment
throughout the country that some
schedules are too high. Unless the
rules are modified the present tariff
law will continue in effect until those
believing in high protection think a
new act is necessary or those oppos-
ing high protection wage a success

Cummins explained the effect of the
proposed change by saying the am
endments would be limited to the
items of the schedules the bill car
ried. He admitted it would bar the
house from presenting a bill revising
the entire tariff

Adams, ore, Dec. 13.-Considerable
excitement has been aroused in Ad-
ans over a stabbing affray which oc-
CURED Sunday evening in which Joe
Mclean, a well known young man Of
the town was severely cut in the

known young man, was the assailant
in the affair which, it is said, arose
over a young lady with whom both

RUBBER FOREST SAID
TO HAVE BEEN DISCOVERED

In the widespread public interest
shown in the announcement of the
discovery of a fortune in wild rubber
in an explored forest on a 1900
acre estate in British Guinana, owned
by the Bartica company, a corpora
ton with offices in New York there
is a vivid suggestion of the furore
created last spring in London when
several Of the East Indian rubber
companies announced dividends of
more than 200 per cent. The discov-
cry which is attributed to Henry
Pearson, editor OF the Indian Rubber
World. who found specimens of Wild
rubber trees growing on the outskirts
of the forest when he visited the
property in March last and suggest
ed an exploration of the whole tract,
looks to be the biggest thing of it's
kind reported in some years. An av-
erage of 90 trees to the acre has been
found, indicating some 100000 on the
whole area. They range all the way
from 90 to 90 inches in circumfer-
ence and some are believed to be 100
years old. 1t is believed they win
yield on an average OF five pounds
OF dry rubber to the tree in the first
year Of tapping or an indicated as-
gregate OF 100000 pounds to the
whole forest Samples Of the late1
extracted from some of the trees ON
the prperty sent here for analysis are
reported to have a market value two
thirds that OF Para rubber and here
fore worth from 81 to $50 a pound

ANXIOUS OHIO MOTHER SEEKS
FOR NEWS Of /. {. WILLIAMS

trace of her missing son. Williams
last wrote to her from this city early
in the fall of 1909. At that time ne
was staying at the Arnold hotel in this
city. He had been working for a
rancher named Burgeon (evidently
meant for Bergevin), seven miles out
from Adams.
According to the missing mans
mother he wrote her he intended go
ing to Walla Walla. Since that time
she has had no trace of him whatso-
ever. Consequently she has become
alarmed lest he has met with trouble
in some form.
An investigation of the records Of
Pendleton Aerie f. o. e, was made
by Mr.. Stroble this morning. It re-
veals that Williams formerly belonged
to the local aerie but has been sus-
pended for non-payment OF dues.
Nevertheless Mr.. Stroble will do his
utmost to locate the missing man for
the accommodation OF the anxious
mother in Ohio.

FARMER BLAMED FOR
HIGH LIVING COST

Chicago. ILL.,, Dec. 13.-The high
cost Of living is blamed partially on
farmers today, Sir Horace Plunkett,
president OF the Irish agricultural So
ciety, is here today touring the coun-
try for the purpose OF studying con-
ditions. UNLESS the American far
mer organizes and distributes his own
products there cannot be a reduction
in the high living cost either here or
abroad" he said. ain this way the far
mer would reduce the portion of the
middleman's profits and thus make
more money"

TOYS ENJOYED BY
CHILDREN OF SIAM

Siam has a large Juvenile popula-
ton. With Siamese children. as with
those of other lands. toys are very
popular, but they are usually the
crude work of local manufacturers
and consist Of rag dolls and dogs, or
animals, wagons, etc, made of palm
leaves, or else they are imported from
China and Japan; and occasionally
some mechanical toys from Germany
find their way to the local market.
No bazaar is complete here without
its toy stand. Teddy bears and dolls
would find a ready sale, as would
cheap tin toys, carts, wagons. boats,
guns. military equipments and fur
niture, and also the cheaper mechan-
ical toys. such as automobiles and
"rlckshaws" drawn by men.
