DISCRIMINATION OF
 RATES IS ALLEGED

Washington. February 13.--Discrimina- ton in the rates and regulations of rail- roads in the city of Memphis Is alleged In petition filed today with the inter state commerce commission. The com- plaint was instituted by the Memphis Grain and Hay associs tion against the St. Louis and San, Francisco railroad and 122 other carriers operating in the states of Alabama. Arkansas, Georgia, Florida, Iowa, Louisiana. Mississippi, North Car olina South Carolina and Tennessee.
 The complaint alleges that tariff re- gently filed with the commission unrea- sonsbly increases the rates on grain. grain products. and mixed feeds re- shipped from or milled in transit at Memphis: that the rates on grain from St Louis to Memphis are excessive, and that the refusal of the carriers to give Memphis shippers the advantage of pro- portional rates is a discrimination against them. !N
 The commission is required to suspend the proposed tariff soi far as regard to Memphis rates and to adjust. the rates and regulations.

GOLD IS BURIED
 IN PENSACOLA
LONG SEARCH IS MADE FOR TREASURE WHICH TRADITION SAYS WAS HIDDEN BY SPAN ISH PIRATES

Pensacola, Fla, February 13.-There is an old legend, by many believed to be true beyond peradventure, that In wharf in Pensacola there were hund- reds of years ago buried priceless treasures in gold. silver and Jewels.
 In days now long agone Pensacola or what is now Pensacola-was @ fa- vorite rendezvous for pirates of Span ish extraction who boldly sailed the main and pursued their illegitimate calling. They were successful pi- rates, too, according to all accounts plethora of worldly goods which snug ly reposed in their strong box. After each successful expedition they stored tn cir ill-got gains in hiding places where the eye of man might see them not.
 It has been believed for years upon years that the favorite burying place for these treasures was the present Perdido wharf district The result Of such belief has been what 1t would be iny any other community; that is, more than one citizen. with fond dreams of wealth almost beyond com putation. has hied himself to the site of the alleged Eldorado and there with pick and shovel has teased old Mother Earth in a perspiring endeavor to have her surrender the wealth con cealed so efrectually.
 It is known that at least one individ- ual within late years believed so strongly in the possibility of sudden affluence that he expended several hundred dollars .n his chase after the elusive doubloons.
 So far no amount of digging and shovelfng has served to produce any thing rlore than the spadesfull of plain and simple dirt which. was thrown ruthlessly aside but thfs does not mean that the legend has been for got or that there are not many who and theIe is small doubt that in the months and years to come there will he others as anxious as their predeces : sors to try conclusions with Fate and follow her beckoning digit.
 This legend and the holes and mounds of dirt in the neighborhood referred to hear mute but eloquent testimony to 10th the credulity and cupidity of man. It is interesting to gaze upon the scene of these various diggings and to reflect upon how many hours have been wasted in chas- ing something which remains as yet undiscovered. Visitors to Pensacola s Mardi Gras, oI February 26. 27 and 2S. will find this 10 be among hundreds of other entertaining sights.
