The president stated TO these
gentlemen at the outset that the
purpose of the suit was TO prevent
the proposed rate increases
(which, under the existing law,
could not be investigated at all

before becoming effective. he
stated further that he thought the
railroad companies must withdraw
the tariffs enjoined and all other
tariffs filed by them effective on
or after June /, 1910. and that
none of them ought to file any new
tariffs involving rate advances I'M

result being accomplished, he saw
no occasion for pressing the suit
and the same would be withdrawn.

the disappearance of the water is un-

ManIey II. Pike.

Manley H. Pike, whose death occur
red in this city on Sunday, Sept. l.
was q resident of Augusta during al
most the whole of mis- life. His par
ents we're Daniel T and (Parlin) Pike.
From these parents he inherited an
able mind. and to them he was indebt-
ed for an exceptionally beautiful home
life. After leaving the public schools
he continued his education at home
under the direction of tutor. These
circumstances fostered his naturally
studious habits and he became sys-
tematic reader and versatile writer.
He was essentially a thinker and
student. His activities were the actlV-
tiles of the study. He was an inter
ested observer of human life and the
world of nature. One of the charms
of his entertaining conversation was
due to his close observation of home
". commonplace things and the Sc
rious or humorous significance which
he discovered in them.
He was a hard worker. spending q
large part of every day at his desk
or in the State library. He was gift
ed with a superior mind which nc
trained himself by systematic and con-
tiruous study. He was thorough
going individualist. caring little 'fol
institutionalism whether political OF
social or religious Living his own life
with loyalty to every clear duty, he de-
veloped an inner life and faith of sin
gular beauty.
The funeral service will be held at
the home nf S T. Cannon, 1873 state
street. at o'clock this afternoon.
