be of the greatest use in the cases of
patients suffering from diseases that
prohibit the use of ether and chloro-
form, such as consumption and acute
lung affections.
The new method consists of an in
lection of a solution Of cocaine adrena-
lin and salt solution beneath the peri

supra renal bodies, which are small

PULLMAN RATES LOWER.
Charges Are Cut Down by Interstate
Commerce Commission.

Commerce Commission.
Washington, April 1.-THE inter
state commerce commission holds it
to be unjust and unreasonable" for
the Pullman company to charge equal
ly for the upper and lower berths in
its sleeping cars. Differential charges
are ordered in several instances and
Pacific are ordered reduced.
Although this ruling of the commits
sion orders reductions in rates which
were specifically and formally COM
planned of, it is recognized as the open
ing wedge for REIMBURSEMENT of sleep
ing car rates whenever they exceed
the average which the commission has
found to be just and reasonable in
these instances. The Pullman COM
pany. it is said, will carry the decision
to the courts
The commission ruled that the pres
ent Pullman rate of $l2 from st. Paul
to the Pacific coast was too high and
ordered it reduced to so. The pres
ent rate of $12 for an upper berth was
ordered reduced to $3.50. A short
nights journey the commission holds
should not carry a rate of more than
.S1.5O for a lower berth and $1.10 for
an upper. The rate of 50, which the
company has maintained from st. Paul
to Fargo, n. d., 242 miles, is ordered
reduced accordingly.

Must Increase Rates, Says Jim Hill

Chicago, April Railroads will
be compelled to get more money, and
if there is no other way in which to
get it they will be forced to increase
freight rates" declared James j. Hill
in an interview here today.
I'm order to take care of the bust
ness which will be offered during the
next few years" continued Mr.. Hill,
the railroads will have to spend vast
sums of money. They cannot get this
money out of earnings and they can
not borrow it. How can they Dor
row money to invest in venture, the
financial returns of which are con.
stantly presenting less favorable com
parison with the returns in other com.
mercial lines?
The railroads seem to have reach
ed about the limit in the way of econ
omics of operation and other econo-
mics, and if they cannot borrow what
else can they do but increase the
freight rates."

DIZZY STUNT OF SCULPTRESS
Mrs. Mills, Swinging In Iron Bucket
Altered Statue on Church Tower

Lashed to an iron bucket, Mrs. Hey.
worth Mills of Madison avenue, Nor
ristown, n. j., was hauled to the tower
of st. Peters church, in South street,
that city, the other afternoon, seventy
five feet from the ground, and in the
drizzling rain she chiseled out fold in
the stone robe of statue of st. Pc
ter, which she designed.
The statue was placed at the base Of
the tower several months ago, and 1t
rests on platform built in the stone
front of the church. 1t was sculptured
in Florence, Italy, by Mrs. Mills and
under her supervision was brought to
the United States and placed in its
present position. Several days ago
Mrs. Mills decided to change the robe
where it hung straight at the knee by
chiseling out fold and making 1t
more artistic.
Shortly after noon Mrs. Mills APP
peared at the church, wearing brown
sweater and soft hat and with her
tools under her arms. WOrkmen at
the church brought an iron bucket
used to haul the materials to the top,
and in this Mrs Mills was tied. When
everything was made secure an engi-
neer was signaled, and Mrs. Mills was
hauled slowly to the statue. At times
the bucket swung in midair, but Mrs
Mills did not seem to mind that. When
1t reached the statue she calmly took
her hammer and chisel from under her
arm and began the work on the robe
For two hours she remained at heI
task, chipping off pieces of stone until
the once straight piece at the knee was
transformed into fold.
A crowd Of people along the avenue
watched Mrs. Mills work and marveled
at her courage. At times the iron
bucket swayed, and she was forced tc
steady it in order to continue her work
