TO DECIDE RAIL RATES.
Commission Expects to Meet During
Summer to Hold Hearings.


Washington; June =9.-Strong and de-
cided. without buster or any display Of
force, is the way in which the presi-
dents attitude in the conferences with
the railroad presidents is described by
those who participated in the confer
ences. The railroad men We're met by
the president with a firm statement
that the government would press the
suits to finality, unless the roads
made the concessions that were finally
agreed upon. Those who We're present
said that all thru the conferences the
president maintained a firm attitude,
and there were no evidences of vacilla-
ton at any time. Seeing that the
president could not be swerved from
his purpose the railroad men finally
yielded to the inevitable and agreed
to withdraw the advances.
Members of the interstate com merce
commission are already beginning to
revise their summer plans. Usually the
commission adjourns about June Is, to
meet again early in september. 1t is
probable the adjournment this summer
VIII be taken at the usual time, but the
date of reassembling will be much
earlier than usual.
Members of the commission today
ventured the opinion that the new law
would not be signed until some time in
July on the belief that the conference
between the house and senate would
last several weeks.
When the law becomes effective, the
rates in the middle west territory. and
those filed by the eastern lines ITO take
effect in July, will be presented to the
commission again. 1t is also believed
that advances in rates in the south
eastern and southwestern territory, and
between the Mississippi river and the
Pacific coast, will be filed with the
commission Immediately after the bill
becomes a law
The commission, acting under the
authority conferred in the law. will sus-

pend the advances, and will set dates
for hearing on them, giving notice TO
the roads, the shippers affected, ana
the commercial organization of the
localities affected by the proposed adj
vances.
Ample time will be allowed for the
preparation Of the evidence to be pre-
sented at these hearings. The plan FOR
the hearings suggested today Is to as
sign a group of rates to each or the
seven commissioners, so that all Sec
lions Of the country will be covered at
once, and the decisions on the reason
ableness of proposed advance rates
may be expedited.
Under the terms of the railroad bill
eleven months is the maximum time
in which a proposed advance in rates
may be considered by the commission.
The roads must file their schedules
thirty days in advance of their going
into effect. The first period OF sus-
pension is four months, but the COM
mission may further advance the Ell
fective date for six months, making a
total of eleven months in which the
subject may be considered before de-
ciSion.
Members of the commission do not
anticipate that it will take the maxi
mum time to decide upon the reason
ableness of the proposed advanced
rates They believe that the hearings
on them will be held in various places
about Sept. l and that as 10 some OF
the rates q decision can be rendered
within the following sixty days.
1t is expected that the decision of the
commission on proposed advances IN
rates between the Mississippi river and
the Pacific coast can be rendered soon
err than on those affecting the middle
west and the east. The commission
now has under consideration COM
plants against rates in the far west,
affecting Spokane, Salt Lake, Ogden,
Phoenix and intermediate territory,
on which decisions are expected short
ly. 1t is just possible that the far
western lines will accept the decisions
of the commission as to these rates,
and will attempt no advances follow

sword MakIno In Jap.n

No man knows when first the forge
for fighting weapons was set up in
the dawn of Japanese history nor who
was the man who first replaced the
rude bronze blades Of primitive folk
by the tempered steel Of the Yamato
blade. There Is in the imperial col
lection of swords at the castle Of
Nara the weapon worn by the Grown
Prince Shotoku, who compiled the
Constitution Of Seventeen Articles in
A. D. 693, the Oldest sword known in
Japan. From that weapon, which was
straight and not curved as all other
swords of Nippon are. down to the
fall of Tokugawa Shogunate in the
middle of the last century there is an
unbroken history of the art Of the
swordsmith. Twelve centuries of re-
corded art in sword making and the
names Of over 10000 makers consti-
tute the history Of the sword in Japan.

Senator HaIe's whfms.

Senator Hale, who will pass from
public lift at the close of congress. has
many peculiar whims and fancies. EN-
p1oyees at the capitol regard him with
awe. 1t is his practise to enter the
building at the east front and take
the elevator. He never notices any of
the boys who might be standing
around. One day, however, contrary
to his usual custom, when he entered
the building, the senator was all
smiles and graciously tipped his silk
hat to the Waterman and elevator
man. The incident caused a small
panic. 1.-THE senator is going to put
a good thing over this day." said one
Of the employees.
