RAILROAD COMMISSION
WINS AGAINST RAILROADS
Interstate Commerce Commission
Decides That New Rates Must go
Into Effect December |

The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion Saturday decided that its order
in the Reno rate case involving class
freights, shall become effective on
December lst
Orders in other Pacific Coast cases
involving commodities will become
effective within the next few months
Determination of the Commission al

bound and West-bound traffic destin-
ed to Nevada points common to Re
no Material reductions are made on
the class rates Really two cases
were included in one proceeding, sep
arate complaints having been institu-
ted as to East-bound rates and West
bound rates.
Vigorous effort was made not only
by the railroads, but by some ship
ping organizations to secure post
poncment of the effective date OF the
order from December lst 1t was ar
gued that, inasmuch as no determi-
nation yet had been reached in the

Commission heard last autumn, it
might cause a serious rate disturb
ance to put the lower rates to Reno
into effect as early as December.
- Tl.~ c->..-...iss;e,s'o- -ef>is-:@.-, Ao.~~~-
er, was that there was not that rela-
ton among the several cases which
would precipltate a rate or CONNER
cial disturbance, even if the proposed
rates to Reno were to become effect
i've as early as Novem lst, a month
before they are to become effective.
In the judgment of the Commission,
the carriers have had ample time
since the order was issued last spring
to adjust themselves to the proposed
lower rates. The Commis ssion, too,
was unanimous in the belief that it
would be unable to achieve anything
definite by a suspension of the order.
The rates affected by the order in
clude all the class charges on ship
ments from every point Of origin east
OF Reno to the Atlantic Coast, and all
similar charges on shipments origin
ating west of Reno to the Pacific

MAY NOT GET
HIS MAN
Sheriff Ferrel Having Hard
Time While In Mexico

Sheriff Farrell and Washoe County
are having a hard time trying to land
Racervich, alias Thompson, whom
Sheriff Farrell went to Mexico to Sc
cure and bring back to Reno to face
a charge of murder. Farrell left Re
no about three weeks ago with the
proper papers to get MS man but
when he reach Jaurez he was con
fronted with $500 board bill. He
consulted lawyer and thought he
had the matter Strengthened out but
still the Mexican officials refused to
surrender their prisoner who has en-
ployed an attorney and is fighting ex-
tradition.
Saturday Farrell wired to this state
that the Mexican officials had decided
to hold Thompson until he could get
dispositions from two men in San
Francisco whom Thompson claims
that on the day the murder was com
mitted in Reno that he was at the
Coast This will mean that Farrell
will have to stay in Mexico for an
other week, although wire has been
received stating that the will go to
the City OF Mexico and personally re-
quest President Diaz to honor the
requisition papers and issue an official
order for the surrender OF the man to
the official.
In the meantime the Governor Of
flee has wired the State Department
at Washington and requested that
they take hand in the matter
through the American counsel in
Mexico.
Farrell is a candidate for reelection
to the office of Sheriff of Washoe
County but will probably be in Mexi-
CO all during the campaign, even be-
ing lucky if he will get chance to
vote.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.-Ncws
OF the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion's decision ordering the new
freight rates to go into effect III Ne
vada on December lst, were received
at the Southern Pacihcs Office here
yesterday and came like thunder
clap. The railroad attorneys here
had been absolutely certain that the
company would be granted until May
lst, at which time they were prepared
to make application for further delay.
The action OF the commission has
redoubled the bitterness OF the rail-
road towards Governor Dickerson and
the state railroad commits sion ol Nc
vada. and orders went forth late yes
terday afternoon to defeat Dickerson
at any cost. 1t is understood that
these orders went SO far as TO per
nit the laying OFF oi certain employ
ees throughout the state OF Nevada
to work against Dickerson.
This OF course means an army OF
workers turned loose for Nixon also.
1t is even possible that the vacation
would have been granted those en-
ployees anyhow, for within the last
two weeks unpleasant rumors have
reached the Southern Pacific head
quarters that Pittman was making a
whirlwind campaign and that an ex-
ira effort must be made TO save Nix
Oh.
1t is a curious fact that ior the
first time during MS connection with
the Southern Pacific company Herrin
who is designated as the head OF the
law department of the Southern Pa
cifc, but who is really the political
general of that company, IS devoting
his personal attention to the cam
paign
He is in constant touch with two
or three individuals III Reno and with
two of the candidates on the republi
can state ticket, and is really devotins
more attention proportionally t'
the Nevada than to the Californa
fight. -

Juggling OF the direct primary law

SOUTHERN PACIFIC ENTERS
FIGHT TO CONTROL STATE

too much backbone to take orders
unques stioningly, and they knew by
experience that Odde was "easy-go-
ing" Hence the sudden right about
face, executed with such CELEBRITY that
| employees of the road like Jimmy
Moore, station agent at Battle Noun
tain, and w G. Hancock, hotel man
OF the same town, were to be found
on the day OF the primaries working
iihr beavers Tor OudIes nominauon.
And the story of what happened at
Battle Mountain was duplicated here
in Carlin, at Winnemucca and all "a
long the line.
The chilly reception received by
Nixon and Oddie and the rest of the
Republican candidates in their trip
through the state has frightened the
railroad company to such an extent
that the order has gone forth to lay
off all employees who have any inhu-
ence in order that they may save
what they can of the outfit.
Particular orders have been given
the railroad bosses to save Nixon, if
it can possibly be done, and to elect a
majority of the members of the State
Legislature to amend the railway rate
reform bill, so that it will become of
no effect, make the State Railway
Commission an elective body in order
to put Bartine. Shaughnessy and
Thurtell out of Office, abolish the
State Board of Assessors and accom-
piish other beneficial egislation-ben-
eficial that is, from Southern Pacific
point OF view.
They realize that with Dickerson
in the chair, such bills would be veto
ed, but they hope that if by some
fluke Oddie should creep in to get
what they want.
This is the first time i'll the history
OF the company that a general laying
off of the employees to do politics
has been ordered, and il affords
good illustration of how desperate
Nixon's and Oddie's chances look to
the keen eyes Of those seasoned poll
ticians who do the machine work OF
the Southern Pacific.
