SWEEPING ADVANCE
IN FREIGHT RATES
Southern Pacific and Santa Fe
Increase Amount in Some
Instances to 100 Per Cent.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 25-The an
nouncement of a sweeping advance in
transcontlnental freight rates, in come in
stances amounting to much as 100 per
cent was made today at the general Of
fees Of the Southern Pacific and Santa
Fe Railway companies. following the re-
celpt of advance copies of the new rate
tariffs from eastern officials. These In
creases are due. so the companies state,
to the rigid enforcement of the long and
short haul law. and the successful COM
plaint OF intermediate points against ter
minal rates based on water competition
tastoound rates arc principally affect
ed, particularly as to shipments in less
than carload lots. All California prod
ucts going east after August 10 will move
under an advance ranging from IS to 100
per cent. On September the west
bound rate becomes operative, a sufficient
increase to destroy all the benefit OF wa
ter competition now enjoyed by shippers
WestboUnd changes are less radical
than the eastbound, ranging tom about
25 10 80 per cent. The tariffs include
all classes of goods.

that there is no reason for delaying

from that state The impression was

nesota Colonel Roosevelt said. how
ever. that, as he understood it, this
decision applied merely to the candl-
dates for state and congressional of
fices, and that the Republican candi-
dates for electors, who are Roosevelt
men, will resign and run on the Ma
tional Progressive ticket. The other
Republican candidates are to be sup"

4 Six stanch Republican states
" have adopted plan, Colonel
Roosevelt said tonight, for the
bodily capture Of the Republican or"
CARNATIONS by the National Progress
sive party. The states lie named arc
Kansas, Minnesota, South Dakota,
Idaho, California and Washington. In
each of these states, according to
Roosevelt leaders who have talked with
the ex-presidcnt or his aides, the Re
publican organization is in control of
the supporters of the new party to an
extent sufficient to enable them TO
transfer the organization virtually IN
tact to Colonel Roosevclt's support.
In each case it is the intention to re-
tain the name Republican and place
candidates for congress and state OF
fices on the regular Republican ticket.
Illegal in Some States.
In the states in which the law re
quires that the names of Taft and
Sherman be placed on the ballots as
the Republican nominees, the Roose-
welt candidates for electors will 90 In
O separate column. Where the law
does not exact this, the Roosevelt can
didates probably will be placed under
the regular Republican emblem on the
theory that Colonel Roosevelt is the
legitimate nominee Of the party. This
claim goes back to the meeting held
in Chicago the night the Republican
national convention adjourned. The
Roosevelt delegates, together with
Roosevelt candidates for seats in the
national convention who were excluded,
assembled in Orchestra hall and ten.
dered the presidential nomination to
Colonel Roosevelt, declaring that they
constituted a ma ioritY of the honestly
chosen delegates to the convention.
