ducing such rates are affirmed. II may be
doubted how effective this remedy is.
Customers Finally Pay Bill.
Experience has shown that many, per-
haps most, shippers do not resort to pro-
ceedings to recover the excessive rates
which they may have been required to pay,
for the simple reason that they have added
their rates paid to the cost of the goods
and thus enhanced the price thereof to
their customers, and that the public has
in effect paid the bill. On the other hand,
the enormous volume of transportation
charges, the great number Of separate
tariffs filed annually with the Interstate
Commerce commission, amounting to al
most 20O, 900, and the imposslbility of any
commission supervising the making Of
tariffs in advance of their becoming effec-
tive on every transportation line within
the United States to the extent that would
be necessary II their active concurrence
were required in the making of every
tariff, has satisfied me that this power, II
granted, should be conferred in a very
limited and restricted form.
II therefore that the Inter
state Commerce commission be empowered
whenever any proposed increase of rates
is filed, at once, either on complaint or
Of it's own motion, to enter upon an in
vestlgation into the rea~sonableness of such
change, and that 1t be further empowered,
in Its discretion, to postpone the effective
date of such proposed increase for 4 period
not exceeding sixty days beyond the date
when such rate would take effect. II
within this time it shall determine that
such Increase is unreasonable It may then,
| hzr 4 .gtL.. - - ed. -
or fix the maximum beyond which It shall
not be made. Ii, on the other hand, at
the expiration Of this time the commission
shall not have completed Its investigation
then the rate shall take effect precisely as
1t would under the existing law and the
commission may continue It's investigation
with such results as might he realized
under the law as it now stands.
Right to select Route.

some large associations of shippers that
shippers Of freight should be empowered to
direct the route over which their shipments
should pass to destination, and In this con-

THE GREAT ROOT
JUICE WILL Be HERE.
The Wonderful Health Creating Dis.
cOVery Will Be at the Arnold
Drug Store.

So much has been published and
said about the scientist and his great
discovery and so many stories have
been told of the wonders accomplished
in a very few days with his great
health-giving Root Juice that many
are getting anxious and would like to
see the wonderful remedy that has
made many remarkable cures during
the past few months. The newspapers
of a number of cities have told of hum
dreds of cures the Root Juice has
made and some of the stories af1oat
are almost too good to be true. 1t Is
said that many people who had given
up hope of ever seeing another Well
dav-eyen some whom the best doc
tors of the country had pronounced
incurabIe-after taking the juice a
short while were restored to perfect
health The remedy seems to remove
all soreness from the stomach, bowels
and bladder, and soon so heals the
! kidneys and liver that the blood max
ing and blood fltering organs work IN
healthy unison. Then all forms OF IN
digestion, belching, heartburn, SICK
headache and constipation are cured
as the cause has been removed. 1t
seems that it cures rheumatism by pre-
venting fermentation in the stomach
and bowels and by giving the kidneys
the health and the strength to filter all
accumulated acid from the blood. The
! demonstrations will begin in the morn
ing at the Arnold drug store, 52S Kan
! sas avenue.
Root Juice is 81 a bottle. Three
bottles for $3.50.

ONLY FINGER PRINTS.
Negro Convicted OF Murder Without
Other Evidence.

Chicago, Nov. 11-Marking the nrSt
conviction on finger print evidence IN
the history of this country, ThomaS
Jennings, a negro, has been Ioul.st
guilty by a jury in the criminal court
of the murder of Clarence A Hitler On
the night of September 10.
The Jurors felt 50 confident of the
guilt of Jennings that the first pa 4ot
resulted in a unanimous conVlcllou
with IL of the jurors demanding tne
death penalty. On the thlro oallot me
death sentence was made unanimous
Counsel for Jennings asked fCr a new
trial on the ground that the ringer
print evidence should not have been al
lowed. AS a result, it is probable that
the supreme court will be expected 20
rule upon the use OF such eVloehce III
criminal cases.
Judge KaVanaug'h, who presided at
the trial. declared when objection was
first made to the evidence presented
by the state that in his OPINION tne
murderer of Hitler wrote his signature
when he rested his hand upon fresh
" painted porch railing at the Hitler
home.
FHoIIowine. the murder of Hitler, this
porch railing was sawed on ana Idhe .
| to detective headquarters where photo-
| graphs were made of the finger prints:
| These photographs were enlarged ana
| following Jennings arrest were COM
pared with new imprints of his lelL
hand made at the police bureau OF
Identification Finger print experts
testified at the trial that there were
points of similarity on the first three
| fingers of the left hand of the murderer
of Hitler and that of Jennings.
Hitler, who was chief clerk IN the
Chicago offices of the Rock ls'.nd
railroad. was shot to death in the front
han of his residence at Washington
Heights, Ill, by negro burglar. Hillel
had encountered the burglar in an up
per hall. The two grappled and fought
their way down a stairway to the frs
floor.
When the police took hold of the in
vestigation it was only known that
! negro had killed Hitler Jennings wa
arrested less than half an hour afte
the shooting at a point three-quarter
of q mile from the Hitler home wher
, he had boarded an electric car boun'
. for Chicago.
Detectives who were sent to the Hill
er home Immediately following the re
port of the murder, found the hand i'm

son, the Perry Werden. All Stars of
Minneapolis going down to defeat by
the score of 2 to O. McCleary was the
star performer for the locals and the
four hits that were secured off the
big fellows delivery did no damage,
as the Werdens never got any farther
around than second base. McCleary
was in grand form. The big South
Paw is still amongst the best in the
business and we predict that he will
stay in the front ranks for some time
to come. This year he has had very
successful season, losing hut two
games ont of all that he has pitched.
The game was one of the fastest
played here and the perfect umpiring
of Frank Mullane aided greatly in
making the game interesting. Both

the fans and the members of both
teams stated after the game that they
had never seen a better umpired game
and there were several close decisions.
One Run in First Inning.
Mankato broke into the run column
early in the game, getting their first
one in the opening frame. Chicken
was first up and drew a pass. Ken
nedy sacrificed him along. Rognas
struck out but Freddy Wines poked
out single to left field, scoring
Chicken. Mankato was dangerous again
in the fourth. With one down Freddy
Wines singled, Carlisle followed suit,
Freddy going to third. Carlisle then
stole second. Domonick, however,
frightened up at this stage and struck
out Newgard and Lnnd. Again in the
sixth there was a chance for some
noise when Rognas got to second on
Briere's error, but Wines, Carlisle and
Newgar3 were easy outs. In the sew
enth, Sammy Kinkel went around all
by himself. With one down, Sammy
got one in the ribs for free ticket.
He took second on wild pitch, stole
third and scored when Hodgims threw
it away, trying to get Sam at third.
Noise Did Not Last Long.
The visitors made a big noise to
start with but it didn't last long.
Briere was first up and singled Hoke
flew out to Wines in an attempt to
bunt, and Briere was caught at sec

second with one down, Holstrom drove
