REDUCED
COMPANY CONSENTS TO REDUC-
TION OF ABOUT 10 PER GENT
THE LOWEST RATES Will
NOT BE DISTURBED, REDUC.
TIONs BEING ON HIGHEST
CHARGES.

After a conference lasting for two
days between the officials of the
Wells Fargo Express company, and
the members of the Oregon Railroad
commission an agreement was en-
tered into yesterday afternoon at
Portland, whereby the express rates
in this state will be reduced on an
average of about 16 per cent, and
there will be no further contention
or litigation in relation to the sub
ject.
The schedule finally agreed upon
at the conference represents about
"a per cent of the present rates, but
a sliding scale of reductions is made,
so that in dollars and cents the re-
ductions range from nothing TO 81,
Lowest Rates Not Disturbed.
The lowest rates were undis-
turbed. They were allowed TO pre-
vail as the express rates as they now
exist in Oregon are lower than those
In any other state in the Union. AS
an illustration OF what Is meant
when it is said that the lowest rates
will not be changed, 1t may be
pointed out that where the rate is
40, so and 60 cents per 100 pounds.
there will be no reduction. Where
the rate is now 10 cents, however.
there will be a reduction to 65 cents.
Between those points where the
present rates are higher than those
mentioned, there will be made a
corresponding reduction. The pres
ent rate from Portland to Ashland,
for example, is $3.50 per 100 pounds
and will be reduced to s2.10. The
highest rate between any two points
in the state Is s3.75 and this will be
reduced TO S2.75.

New York, Aug. 27.--Rioting, pis-
tol fights and suicide marked the re-
sumption today of the garment max
ers' strike, at moment when lead
ers among both employers and en-
ployes were announcing that hos
tilities were suspended and work
would be resumed on Monday. The
renewal of the strike resulted from
the objection of the strikers to the
proposal made by their leaders that
the union concede the closed shop.
So bitter was the feeling against
the men who suggested compromise
on that basis that Treasurer Lennon,
who announced the plan to the strik-
ers in meeting, was driven from the
hail. The working men and women
were enraged at any such encroach-
ment on what they claim are their
absolute rights.
Morris Lovenson, a cloakmaker, on
learning that work was not to be re-
sumed, killed himself His funds
had been exhausted by the seven
months lay-off

demands of closed shop violated the

While in the act of crossing State

Misses Nellie Roberts and Verna

this city and singers of illustrated
songs at the Wexford theatre, were

Cooder was less fortunate and re-

possibly prove fatal.

No sooner had the colonel entered
the stand than the parade, which all
ready had been formed, began to
pass. Five thousand regular troops,
$500 cowboys, number of girls in

law" Justice Goff of the New York
supreme court today issued what IS
considered the most sweeping anti
union injunction ever given in New
York state.
The order came as the result of a
bill for an injunction filed by the
Cloak and Suit Manufacturers asso-
citation against the International
Garment Workers union. The
manufacturers considered the in
junction as the strongest decision
against labor unions ever rendered
in America.
In issuing the restraining order
the court says:
'If it is law that the employers
cannot combine, the same law ap-
plies to the unions; wnat employers
may not do, the workmen may not
do. The primary purpose OF this
strike as not to better conditions for
the working men but to, deprive
other men of the opportunity or the
right to work, and to drive them from
the industry which required skill.
These men have the right to pursue
and gain livelihood without being
subjected to doing things which to
them are disagreeable and re-
pugnant"

rates were commenced about year
ago by the commission, and after a
hearing was held on the subject the
commission issued an order directing
that the rates be reduced 10 per
cent. The express company, how
ever, indicated that it desired TO
have a conference with the commits
sion and suggested that If one was
held concessions might be made and
litigation avoided. With this end Ia
view the commission suspended the
order and granted the conference
with The result.
The rates affected by the change
will number about $4,000.
The rate clerk of the commission
and the one representing the express
company, are now engaged in formu-
lating schedule, and the order will
probably go into effect on October 1.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 27.-Colo
mel Theodore Roosevelt today de,
clined to reply at this time to the
editorial published in the New York
Evening Post yesterday attacking
him for speeches made on his West
ern trip.
II have nothing to say today" he
remarked when shown the editorial
by a representative of the United
Press. This is the kind of attack
it is expected the Post, of course,
would make as soon as a genuine,
practical movement for decent, clean
politics is attempted in New York. 4"
The editorial was shown to the
colonel as he was leaving the review
ing stand after having watched the
passing of the parade of the From
tier day celebration. He glanced at
it, waved his fist and Kissed through
his teeth as he was stepping from
the stand:
Just what I expected"
There is no doubt but that Roose-
welt believes the attack is the open
ing gun of the fight that he has
started in New York.
The attack against the colonel in
the Post was bitter and charged
that he had posed as corporation
hater in order to make the corpora
tions contribute funds for his cleo
tion to a third term in 1912.
Such wild whirling words as
Roosevelt uttered yesterday are a
curse to public life," the editorial
began. "I'll make the coropora-
tions come to time, shouted Roose-
welt to the mob" the editorial con-
tinued. But didn't he really mean
he would make them come down
with cash to elect him as they did
before?"
The attack evidently aroused the
colonel's anger and he indicated
that he would reply fully as soon as
he had had time TO consider it more
carefully. Though he was angry, It
was evident that an attack coming
from the Post did not surprise him.
and it is believed by many Of those
close to the former president, that
he fully realized that his return to
politics, especially in New York,
would mean just such a fight against
him. But, they declare, knowing II
would be a fight. he will keep his
promise to fight back and TO "give
them all the fighting they want"
The fight evidently is to be carried |
on without quarter on either side, |
the colonel's friends assert. The di-
rectness of the attack and fits bitter
ness show the depth OF the feeling |
that has been aroused by RooBevelt's
onslaught against the "old guard"
they declare. and they expect the
rest Of the struggle in New York 20
be marked with bitterness and per
sUnality.
