MISSION BEGINS HEARING ON
PROPOSED ADVANCES IN THE
FREIGHT RATEs-RoADs WILL
NOT PLEAD POVERTY.

Chicago. H., Aug. 29.-Nineteen
lawyers representing big western rail-
way systems were present today when

bearing on the advance in railroad
rates scheduled to go into effect Nov.
L. The hearing involves 202 trans
portation lines in western trunk line
territory.
According to President Miller Of the
Chicago Burlington & Quincy, the
larger lines will not urge poverty as
necessitating rate advances Miller
said that business necessity and ex-
pediency rather than the verge of
bankruptcy" arguments Will be made.
Shippers have been organized to
fight the proposed schedule for some
time. The campaign Is being directed
by joint subcommittee of traffic ex-
perts headed by F. B. Montgomery Of
Chicago.
The shippers claim that the railroads
have padded the records Of their
operating expenses in order to make
1t appear that an advance in freight
tariffs is demanded by common justice
to investors in their securities.

BODY OF MISSING MAN FOUND
UNDER FLOOR OF GARAGE IN
PENNSYLVANIA.

Point Marion, Pa, Aug. 20. AL
though Louis Drandia, 10 years old, is
in Jail at Uniontown tonight, charged
with the murder Of Frank Ringle, "a
years old, a business man, whose body
with the skull crushed, was found be-
meath the floor of a garage here today,
detectives are still investigating and
further sensational developments are
expected.
Drandia, who was formerly employ
ed by Harvey, proprietor OF the garage,
and who occupied the upper room In
the garage, where blood spots are de-
clared to have been found, was located
at Martins station, Pa, late today
by Policeman Ed. Tahoe and Harvey.
He denies his guilt and logically ex-
plains his actions since Ringle dis
appeared.
According to the authorities, a watch
which belonged to Ringle was found in
a barrel near the house where Drandia
was found. According to Mrs. Ringle,
her husband left his home, which was
located near the garage to call Drandia
tn breakfast Aug. 16. Drandia came,
but Ringle did not appear 1t Is said
that at the time Ringle carried 800
but at the time the body was found
but two quarters were in his pockets.
Harvey said today that since Rim
gle's disappearance he and his son
William, 20 years old, have both sus-
pected that Ringle had met with foul
play, but that the authorities secuted
the theory. He and his son made an
oher search of the garage and when
no trace of the body was found, he
suggested that they crawl under the
building and investigate. He says the
boy found mass of weeds with no
roots above freshly truned earth. Be
coming suspicious, shovel was secur-
ed and scraping some dirt away, the
body was found.

Time Of Trains on G. NJ.
Owing to the fact that 1t was not
until late that the Great Northern

tising matter announcing the sched-
ules of it's trains. However Agent Har-
ry May stated this morning that the
excursion on the Aneta branch would
leave Devils Lake at o'clock a. m.
and would arrive in Casselton about
IL o'clock a. m. On the, Larimore
branch the special win leave Larimore
at 8 o'clock a. m. and will connect with
the Aneta branch special at Cassel-
ton, both trains arriving in Fargo be-
fore noon. Both will leave this city
on the return trip about Z o'clock in
the evening after the celebration will
have been completed.
Every Evidence of Large Crowds.

stein Of the commercial club has stat
ed that he has heard from a large
number of the commercial organiza-
tons of the state saying that they are
coming to Fargo in a body. Others
who are engaged in arranging the de-

have secured information that there
