Reduces Original Tariff on Commodity
About rs Per Cent-Peanut
Men Satisfied.

Jackson, Miss, March 22.-The
Mississippi railroad commission has
ordered a new rate on peanuts, and it
becomes effective on and after April

This rate is reduction on the one
ordered at previous meeting of the
commission, and that rate made an
average reduction of about so per |
cent in the old rate. The rate just |
promulgated by the commission it is |
estimated, makes further reduction
of about % per cent, and seems to be
satisfactory to the peanut interests.
The rate promulgated at the meet
ing February 81 was not satisfactory,
but was adopted under the misappre-
hension on the part of the commits
sion that it was compromise rate
agreed upon between the railroads
and the representative of the peanut
industry When it was learned that
this was not the case, and the peanut
men asked for a rehearing, the COM
mission granted the petition and the
case was again put on the docket at
the first March meeting of the commits
sion.
The case came up for hearing Mon
day, and the commission, after consid-
ering the question, ordered new rate.
This rate is for carload lots, and fixes
the minimum for corload at 10000
pounds. The rate follows:
Five miles or less, 5 cents per 100
pounds.
Ten miles and over five, cents.
Fifteen miles and over ten, cents

DR.. BARKER'S BIG
BILL IS EXPLAINED
He Was to Receive $1,000 a
Day for Services.

Baltimore, March 16-Dr LIewellyn F.
Barker, of Johns Hopkins medical school
to-day explained the claim of 81, 800 for
medical services rendered the late Thom-
as F. Walsh, the multimilIionaire mining
king of Washington ana Colorado. This
claim with others was filed against Mr..
Walsh's estate in the Probate Court, Of
Washington, and attracted attention in
the newspapers. There was no conten-
ton. however, over its payment
This is said DR.. Barker. 'as a matter
of fact the biggest bill 1 ever rendered
any one for services, and it was per-
fectly satisfactory to members OF Mr.
Walsh's family. At the time I was called
to see Mr.. Walsh he was in Texas, and
I went to San Antonio. The agreement
was made in advance that l was to re-
ceive $1,000 a day for my services, and
was gone some ten days. That made
$4,000
Il also went to Washington a num-
Der Of times to see Mr.. Walsh, and spent
two nights there For the visits and at
tention to him in Washington l charged
S1-5o, which made the total bill of Sn,-
500. This bin was entirely agreeable to
the family. and there has been no dispute
whatever over it. 1t was merely filed as
claims are always filed when the estate
of some one is being settled up"
DR.. Charles F. Wainwright, of New
York, is said to have submitted to the
court a claim for $42,000 balance due for
professional services. DR.. Barker said he

The millinery of the spring and sum-

lures do not lend themselves amiably to
the piquant and picturesque there are.
fortunately, plenty of conservative mod
els which are modish and good looking
without even a hint of the startling or
eccentric.
The vogue of draped toque effects has
impelled the manufacturers to bring out a
surprising variety of straw braids soft and
light enough to be used as one might use
silk or velvet and these are fashioned
into cleverly draped toques which will
make admirable first hats for wear with
either trotting suit or dressy costume,
according to the braid chosen and the
trimming used.
Some of the smartest of the tailored
toques are built up of very coarse braids
in mixed coloringS, the colors subtly
blended and Offering either a subdued or
an audacious scheme. Some of the soft
green and blue shadings in these braids
are very attractive. as are certain heath
er mixtures OF russets and green's. or vio-
lets and cerise tones, or purples with
blues. or black and white and blue COM
binations.
The beauty of the braid and the skill
with which it is draped eliminate any
need of pretentious trimming for these
toques. and some single ornament or stiff
bow is the usual choice. Height is much
insisted upon in a majority of the new
small hats, and in the toques under dis
cussion is often secured not only by the
lines of the draping. but also by high
stiff ladder bows of ribbon, sheaves or
