COULDN'T BUY FISH Patrons of Independents in Frisco Are Boycotted
 by Combine

SAN FRANCISCO, March 7-Con. tinuing the investigation of the high price of food, the senate committee to. day examined number of retail fish dealers. Witnesses agreed in confirm ing a statement previously made by others in the trade that they were forced to stop patronizing an indepen- dent concern by the refusal of whole salers in the alleged trust to supply them if they did not do so. One dealer, A. Farone, testified to having been fined $50 for selling fish one-half cent pound lower than the price fixed by the combine.
 At the close df the investigation Senator Edward I. Wolfe, chairman of the legislative investigation committee, announced that the legislators are satis- fled that combination in restraint of trade exists and sufficient evidence has been gathered to justify the attorney general of the state or the district at torney of San Francisco to proceed against the members of the alleged trust under the antitrust laws of Cal ifornia.

Miami Copper Company Heads List with Practical
 ly Unlimited Donation
OTHER COMPANIES
 READY TO ASSIST
Liberal Support Taken as Expression of Approval
 of Work Done

As the result of its appreciation of the good work which is being done by the Globe chamber of commerce, to- ward the furtherance of the best inter ests of the entire Globe district, the Mi ami Copper company yesterday gave to Secretary Rohrabacker a check for $500, as the first insta llment on prac- tically unlimited donation.
 The officials of the Miami Copper company expressed their willingness to contribute at least $l,000 toward the chamber of commerce. If it develops however, that additional money is nee. essary, they will not be backward in enlarging this amount.
 The Miami Copper company is not the first corporation of its kind to make an actual subscription to the chamber of commerce. Many other mining companies throughout the Globe district have expressed their willing. less to contribute toward the expense of the local commercial body and some have already donated to the organiza. ton. As the result, there need be no fear that the mining companies will not lend their aid to the furtherance of the chamber.
 The mining companies realize the inn portance of such an organization and they are apparently willing to strength. en their moral support by the donation of handsome subscriptions. This stand will form closer union among the var. lous business interests of the Globe dis

COURT sQUATs 0N COMMISSION IN
 TWO PLACES
Reverses Orders Requiring Railroads to Make New
 Routes and Rates

WASHINGTON, D. C., March r. Twice today the supreme court of the United States annuled important orders of the interstate commerce commission because the commission was considered as having exceeded it's authority.
 One of the~orders of the commission required the Northern Pacific railroad to join with competing roads to estab fish a through route and joint rates from east of Puget Sound points via Portland, Ore.
 The other required the Delaware Lackawanna & Western raiload to grant "a physical connection with the Railway Valley Railroad company at Summit N. J.
 The court held that the Northern Pa cifc had already maintained a ''satis factory or reasonable' route from the east to Puget Sound points and the com mission could not require the road to join in another route.
 The court took the position that eli. mate, scenery and the desire to visit along routes south of the Northern Pa cifc did not make the latter's route unsatisfactory or unreasonable, and to hold otherwise would be to give ar. tifcial meaning to the words of the statute.
 In the other case it held that the require a railroad to grant a connection with branch railroad upon complaint of the branch road itself.

TRADERS ACTIVELY PUSHING STOCKS

Steel and Southern Pacific Lead Rapid Rise in Price
 Yesterday

NEW YORK, March 7.-Concerted operations for an advance on large scare are clearly perceptible in the stock market Untavorable influences were entirely ignored in New York, al though the market for Americans in London was slightly affected before trading began here.
 Large and aggressive accumulation and rapidly rising prices in United states Steel and Union Pacific had a sentimental effect on the whole list.
 The movement in Steel suggested a resumption of market operations by the brilliant campaign in that stock last year.
 Southern Pacific was favOrably af- fected by the character of the day s testimony in the hearing of the govern ment' s suit against the merger.
 The influence of the Philadelphia strike was minimized by the quiet con. ditions reported from that city, al though conflicting claims left the actual situation somewhat confused.

An Easy Fit.

A number of years ago there lived
in northern New Hampshire a notori-
Gus woman-hater. 1t was before the
day Of ready-made clothing, and want
ing a new suit, he was obliged to take
the material to the village tailoress.
She took his measurements, and when
she cut the coat, made a liberal al
lowance on each seam.
The mans dislike of women in gen
eral prevented his having a fitting.
He took the finished garment without
trying it on. 1t was much too large,
and his disgust was apparent in the
answer he made to the friendly loafer
on his first visit to the post office,
when he wore the despised article.
Got a new coat, Obed?" said the
loafer.

seven yards of cloth wrapped round

Musical Announcement.

Because the Bankers were always

way nobody was surprised at their
sending out mysterious invitation to
something, presumably a musicale, be-
cause the notice consisted of Just four
bars of music; but everybody was sur
prised that the invitation should have
been mailed several days after the
printed date, which was June Is. One
man who never liked to miss anything
called Barker up and told him how sor-
ry he and his wife were that they
didn't get the invitation in time.

His demand was made so quietly,
with such perfect assurance that it
would be granted, that again she
gave in weakly. When he had gone,
however, and she told at the table
of the strange circumstance her
mother exclaimed against the uncon-
ventionality, and her father spoke of
the danger of admitting an unknown
man to the house. Her cousin, Betty
Barnes, however, who was spending
the winter with her, thought 1t some
thing of an adventure.

But as Catharine learned to know

poverty alone that made him wear a

wrapped up in his art that he thought
little of the things that rule the aver
age man.

course of a recent address in char

TOO many Of us are inclined to
think that, one misstep made, the boy
is gone for good. Too many of us are
like the cowboy.
"An itinerant preacher preached to
a cowboy audience on the 'Prodigal
Son. He described the foolish prodi.
gals extravaganza and dissipation; he
described his penury and his husk-
eating with the swine in the sty; he
described his return, his fathers low
ing welcome, the rejoicing. and the
preparation of the fatted calf
"The preacher in his discourse no.
ticed a cowboy staring at him very
hard. He thought he had made con-
vert, and addressing the cowboy per-
sonally, he said from the pulpit:

have done If you had had a prodigal
son returning home like that?

and fiercely, I'd have shot the boy
