South Bend, Ind.
But when the doctors studied her
case they shook their heads. They
said she had but a few months to live
before she would be taken away by an
lncurable cancer.
Every hope of a career in the world
blighted, Miss Holmes turned to the
consolation of the church.
She was dismissed from the hospital
after she had regained little strength,
but nothing was promised her. She
was told she might live year or two.

WESTERN ROADS
ACCEPT DEGREE
COMMISSIONS NEW RATE
RULING.

Chicago, March 2.-Thir, y-five west
ern railroads decided yesterday to
make no appeal from the recent de-
cision of the interstate commerce COM
mission denying the roads the right
to increase freight rates. They will
accept the decree of the commission
as final.
The decision was reached at a meet
ing of representatives of the roads at
the Western Trunk Line association
headquarters here. The opinion was
advanced by many that the roads
would be unable to make any stronger
showing before the new commerce
court than they had before the COM
mission, and that once the new court
had ruled, its decree would be bind
ing for two years. 1t also was argued
that if the roads comply with the de-
cree without objection and withdraw
the advanced tariffs before March 10
there will be an opportunity at later
date to submit advances on certain
rates, some Of which may meet with
favor.
