Northern Pacific Man Says Conditions in the Wool Districts Will War
 rant a Tariff Increase.

CHICAGO. Sept S-Attempts were made to show that freight rates on wool from points west of the Miss issippi to Eastern markets have been materially increased since 1896 were made today before Interstate Com merce Commissioner Prouty, who is Investigating complaints of shippers that rates are unreasonable.

Allier, assistant general freight agent of the Northern Pacific, denied that his company had increased wool rates since 1896. but said the present tariff is too low.

CONTROLLER BAY
 IS NOT THE BEST
If Any Fool Thinks It is Then |
 Don't Know 1t, Says Fisher.

SEATTLE, Wash. Sept. S.-At d banquet tonight Secretary Fisher of the Interior department, forecasted
 some legislation he will recommend for
 the amelioration of conditions in Alas ka
 The government owes it to flask ka." he said. ito light the rocks, shoals and channels. build roads and trails. especially in the interior, and make q larger appropriation for sur Veys in the interest of the home steader and mineral claimant. If any fool thinks Controller Bay is more valuable than another l do not know it. I am not violating any confidence when I say Controller Bay is not the only possible harbor for the coal fields in Alaska and is far from be- ling the best harbor. l am seriously
 disappointed at what I saw in the Boring coal fields. Reports of their lC CXtent and character are grossly eX- IagEeTated There is a serious question as to a market for this coal. Con lCerning coal claimants I shall strive for absolute justice and administra- ton of the law as it is. My policy
 will be to open the coal fields as soon as it can be done. The first solution. would be unrestricted private owner ship. I shall waste no time on this iremedy. The hands of the clock will
 not turn back. The day of such own orship is past. Second I favor leasing
 the lands. because that gives promises of greater returns for all concerned"

MAYBE GEORGE PURDY BILLIARD WILL BE THE
 DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE FOR SUPERIOR JUDGE
Pressure Has Been Brought to Bear by Party Leaders to Induce Him to Surrender His Ambition For State Office and Accept the Nomination for Judge of the Maricopa County Su-
 perior Court

But it is quite certain that his willing ness will not square with the plans of the organization.
 These plans contemplate a sUbstitu- ton. It is proposed to substitute the name of George Purdy' Bullard for that of MT. Franklin That will give some aspiring legal giant a chance to run for attorney general. if George Purdy consents to the program; for it is pretty generally believed that MT. Bullard would have pulled down the nomination for the state office, and he may yet. AS intimated. he hasn't yet consented to permit his name to be used for the judicial nomination.
 Langstone's a nice man. the leaders say-a very nice man, but they don't think this is his year to run. They think the candidate for judicial hon ors should be a man older in eXperi- ence and possessed of a wider acquain- tance They think George Purdy Bull lard just about fills the bill,
 They are bringing some pressure to bear on Bullard. too but so far he hasn't given his consent. The attOr- ney- -generalship looks pretty good to him for that would let him continue his regular law practice and would give him more time for pulling off automobile races and other little pleasantries of a similar sort.
 It's quite an interesting situation and one worth watching.

There's just Q weenty little bit of a muddle among the Maricopa democrats and some of the slate makers are run ming around in circles while others are staring blankly into space and wonder ing what it's all about
 Principally, it's about office of su- perior judge of Maricopa county. This ,~ a s4,0O0 job and the regular term lasts four years. so it is really worth going after and some of the democratic brethren among the legal fraternity are dead willing to go after it, too; but the trouble is they don't seem to sat isfy the slate makers.
 Some time ago it was all fixed that Alfred Franklin. of this city. should have the nomination. That is. it was all fixed so far as the leaders" were concerned. But. it seems these lead CTS" have overlooked a rather neces- sary point-they had failed to consult Mr Franklin.
 This was a rather bad oversight. for it now develops that Mir. Franklin doesn't care to make the race. He has his optics on the supreme bench. it is said. so no county judgship for him.
 Some other gentlemen have been "mentioned"-in fact the mentioning has been quite good ever since it was announced that MT Franklin would not be a candidate. Among the names sug- gested is that of J H. Langston.
 Like Barkis, MT Langston is willin'.

 SIDES STAND PAT
It Is Conceded That the Vice President of the Hartman System, Hay ing Taken His Stand Will Remain Firm.

SAN FRANCISCO. Sept S.-Offi- cials of five shop craft unions com prised in the federated shopmen on the Hartman lines will probably de termine definitely at the meeting to- morrow what to do about the refusal .of Julius Kruttschnitt vice president of the system, to recognize the feder- atiOn.
 No one can be found here who be- lieves Kruttschnitt will recede one particle from the stand he has taken. It is also regarded tonight as almost certain that the men will not recede from their vote to authorize a strike, nor are they willing to temporiZe, either by preferring minor demands, or by letting the question of recogni- ton go over for three months, or any other length of time.
 IT there is any way to avert a collision. the general officers of the federation tonight say that they are not aware of it. Pressure for a strike, it is said, is insistent east of .the mountains, but more insistent along the coast.

FIRST OF SERIES
 TEACHERS INSTITUTE
Win Be Held in This City from October 2
 to 6

The first teachers institute to be held in the county in the school year which begins on September Il will be held in Bisbee beginning october 2 and extending through October 6. The dates were decided upon at con ference between County Superintend- ent Of Education Stoyer, Professor PhiIbroOk, superintendent of the schools of this district, and the super intendent of the Douglas schools. Al this conference the program was dls- cussed but it is in tentative shape as yet.
 A teachers institute in Arizona is different from the institutes held Tn some sections of the country, as, for instance, in the southern states, where it is more of a teachers convention than a school, as an Arizona institute is. At the coming institute Bis0ee teachers will receive their hrst m struction in the new method of pen manship. called the Palmer system, and Bistee teachers will be the first in the territory to be instructed in the new method. The instructors will be sent from the publishing house d. rect. at the expense of the publishers, this being one of the conditions on which the territorial board of educa. ton awarded the publishing house the contract for supplying the schools oi the territory with writing text books or manuals.

While in reality quite simple, this little frock gives an impression of dressiness because of the bretelles which trim 1t. These are merely an extension of the panel front and back. but by scaIloping the edges as shown, or by trimming them with bands of in- sertion or otherwise, the ornamental effect is obtained. This style Is es- pecislly good for very slender girl. as the panel tends to add breadth to the figure. The skirt of the dress has the same panel arrangement in front, but the sides and back are simply gath cred and joined 10 the waist beneath a belt. The neck is cut out square and a guimpe may be worn if necessary. Challis. cashmere, cheviot, linen, pom gee, gingham, and novelty materials in silk, wood and cotton are suitable for tbis dress.
