WABASH'S PRESIDENT
DEFENDS RATE RAISE.

CHICAGO, June 6.-F. A. Delano,
president Of the Wabash railroad, one
of the railroad presidents who will
call upon President Taft in regard TO
the Federal court injunction against in
crease of rates by Western roads, said
yesterday;
IT do not like to talk panic: 1t Is a
bad word. We Americans are prone to
go of the handle. We should keep our
clothes on. Panics are the result of a
number OF causes: n of these auses
without the others Is not sufficient to
cause a panic. There are now probably
one or two causes in the air, but they
cannot bring about depression without
the others.
Railroads are up against 1t pretty
hard and everybody seems against them,
The commerce commission was created
by the government as an impartial
board of arbitration to hear all sides
shippers. consumers n railroads. This
board is still in existence, and was
ready to have heard any complaint
against the reasonableness or unrea-
sonableness of rates.
Railroad men want to obey the law
There is no feeling that I can discover
them hat savors Of evasion,
Manufacturers and shippers who ask
injunctions would undoubtedly raise
an awful roar II they we're e~njoined
when they boosted the price of their
various commodities. Yet they do 1t,
and have been doing 1t for several
years, which has resulted in an era OF
high prices Of everything except rail
road rates"

SCARE IN MARKET
BOOSTS COTTON PRICES.
August Delivery Advances 80
Points.

NEW YORK, June GA scare among
operators short for July and August de-
livery of cotton in New York sent
prices UP in a sensational dur
ing today's early trading. July cotton
sold at 1870 or 81 a bale above the
closing figures of last week, while Au-
gust, advanced to 14.60 or 80 points net
higher, this big gain having been Sc
cured in a very excited market with a J
vances of from 8 to 4 points frequently
noted between sales.
There appeared to be nothing particu-
larly bullish in the general news, as
Liverpool was rather lower and weather
conditions were favorable. but there
seemed to be no one TO sell old crop
cotton aside from the big bulls, and
these traders were unwilling to sup
ply the demand except on a sharply
advancing scale.

Bl0ck-Tenants Driven
Into Street.

covered in the bicycle establishment of

ened to do serious damage to the whole

MED today by Mr.. Ditzel, who stated
that there wasn't sufficient gasoline in
his place to explode. There had been
no one in the store after 6 o'clock in
the evening.
The building is a three-story frame
structure at the corner of Elm and
Prospect streets. The second floor Is
occupied by Mrs. Margaret Menzie n
her two daughters n son John. An
other store adjoining Ditzel's on the
ground floor Is occupied by Morris
Pinnas as a grocery store. Damage to
the stock in this store amounted TO
about $1,000, due principally to water.

joining, there was considerable excite
ment. Mrs. Leantine Philhower and
Mrs. Louise Stewart, who live on the
second floor. had to be carried from
the building by the flremen. Mrs.
P%hilhower became historical. Mrs.
Stewart was taken from a sick bed

CH|NAMAN SEEKS
LIBERTY ON WRIT
OF HABEAS CORPUS
Partners in Oriental Store Quar-
rel in Real Occidental Style
by Use of Courts.

An interesting point of law was
brought up by ex-Jhldge Thomas 8.
Henry today when he. applied to Judge
Thomas A. Davis forsa writ o. Shabeas
corpus In the case of,Hum On, a New
York Chinaman, now confined In the
county Jail on a grandRJury Indictment
charging him with b larceny OF S1ss
from the store OF NgAYee Low. at 10
Lafayette street.
The case Is one ofta disagreement
between two partners
The two men formed q. partnership to
deal In Japanese and Chinese ware and
materials about July 1, 1903. EVERY
thing wentsloveiy for a,time, but quar-
rels began in March between the
partners.
On April 1. 1910, Hum IN was ar
rested by the poiicet OF the First Pre-
cinct on a warrant sworn out by Nc
Yee Low, charging him with stealing
1925 of the partnership money.
Hum On was arraigned before Judge
Simon Hahn lin the First Prectncts Po-
lice Court on this charge. Ths . .
was dismissed by Judge Hahn on the
ground that nov criminal act had been
shown, and theimatter was apparently
dropped.
On May 81 Hum On filed a bill In
chancery before ce-Chancslior stew
ems asking for an accounting ana dis
solution of the partnership. An order
to show cause why a receiver should
not b. granted was signed and made
returnabie June Z. On the same day
Hum On filed his petition In Chancery
Court he was arrested on the grand
jury indictment charging the larceny
of s19s.
It is to secure his release a also
to quash the indictment that Judge
Henry now seeks a writ OF habeaA cor
pus to compel a quick hearing on the
issues involved.
F. M. Moore. OF New York. VINO rep
resented Hum On in the police court
hearing, told Judge Davis today that
Ng Yee Low admitted at that time
Hum On was his partner. Mr.. Moore
handles a majority of he Chinese law
cases in New York city and is assisting
Judge Henry in this instance.
The contention of h latter Is that
as Hum On was placed In Jeopardy
when he was arrested and tried before
the police court with the result that
the case was thrown out OF court by
Judge Hahn, the grand jury has no
right to indict him at a later date for
the same offense
Judge Davis took the matter under
adyisement and will render a decision
at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
