WILL INCREASE
THE SALARIES

Some time ago the Nevada Rail-
road Commission. acting aS the Util-
ity Commission, asked for a raise in
wages for the telephone operators
Of the Pacific Telephone & Tele-
graph Company. 1t was not made
as a demand but as a request and
was based on figures. After consid
ering the matter the company has
decided to make the following raises.
which will tend to make even better
service over the phone system:
The increase in wages became ef-
fective on the first of this month.
At the start. increase from $25 to
$50 per month.
After six months. increase from
$50 to $40 per month
After one year, increase from S35
to $50 per month.
It is stated that the testimony be-
fore the Railroad Commission show
ed that in Reno alone, there were IS
changes in telephone operators dur
ing the past year.
The Commissio II took the stand
that to increase the wages of the tel
ephone girls. thus making the condi-
ton under which they must live
while not at work more agreeable.
would be to lower the number of
changes in operators. They held
that with higher wages. the operat
ors would be more contented, would
keep their positions instead of being
constantly changing, and would there
fore become more and more eff
cient

REDUCTION
OF. FREIGHT
Commissioners Want
Coal Rate Trimmed

The Railroad Commission is en-
deavoring to bring about better
freight rates on coal from Rock
Springs to points in Nevada. The
schedule of reduction effects every
station from the state line, including
Goldtield, and other southern sec
tions. The Commission is asking a
reduction over the S P, w. p. and
the San Pedro roads. The proceed
ings are executed under law and the
roads. should they refuse, will face
a hearing before the Interstate Com
mercc Commission.
The reduction is one dollar per ton
from Rock Springs and Utah points
to Reno. or from S. to $4 per ton
freight. Corresponding reductions
are asked all along the line.
The Commission III its plea for the
better rates. declares that the rates
are excessive under comparison
hauls, are unjust and discriminatory.
Immediate action is asked on the
part of the roads by the Commission.

woman whom Skinner had known
and he visited her. Yesterday close
watch was kept on the house and at
ter Skinner entered an officer follow
ed. He was taken without resist
.ance When searched two revolvers
were found on him
The queer part of the capture is
that a man of the cunning of Skin
ner could SO easily be taken. 1t took
a woman to do the business and he
deliberately left the path open for
his taking. When it is considered
that he put in a year planning and
carrying out his escape it is won
der that he could leave so plain a
path after getting away.
The State Police and others were
entirely off the track until the letter
was received It was believed that
he had drifted toward Arizona, where
his money was sent some weeks ago.
Instead he has been in San Francisco
the best part of his time since the
escape Had he kept clear of the
woman. who directed the officers. he
might have enjoyed his stolen free
dom for longer time at least.
Skinner worked his dodge of in
sanity to a winning point, hut his jig
is up and he will have to decorate
a cell for the remainder of his life,
or the best part of it at least.

Woman Furnishes the News That
Leads to the Prisoners Quarters.
He is to be Brought Home in a
Few Days.

Fred Skinner. the convict who es-
capped from the condemned cell at
the State Prison on the 2Sth OF last
month. was captured yesterday in
San FRANCISCO by the police of that
city He will be returned to the
prison within a few days to serve his
fifty years sentence. which is life
for him.
The information that led to Skin
ner's capture came about by the ad
vice of woman. Several days ago
Warden Cowing received a letter
from a woman named mabel Eel
kerr or at least signed by that name.
She stated in the letter that Skinner
was in San Francisco and could be
taken if care was used. She further
wrote that he had confessed to fif-
teen murders, which latter informa
ton is believed to be without fOun-
dation,
Warden Cowing dispatched a guard
to the city to be sure that idnetifi-
cation was correct in case a man was
arrested.
The police of San Francisco were
given all the details OF the letter and
such other identification as was nee
essary. They proceeded to locate the

For the week ending July Ia, 1912.
Des Moines, Iowa.
Under the effect of high temper
atures and frequent and fairly well
distributed copious showers all crops
have made rapid progress. There
was, however, considerable damage
done in some localities by hail, heavy
rains and high winds in lodging grain,
but this will be more than counter
balanced by the benefit received by
corn, late grains, spring seeding of
timothy and clover, pastures, pota-
toes, gardens and fruits Corn made
very rapid growth. and a large por-
ton of 1t is now up to the normal for
the middle of July. Many of the ear
ly fields in the southern counties are
to tasseiS land ali Of II has
a good color. Owing to the fact that
in most localities the showers came
at night, rapid progress was made in
+haying and harvesting. About all Of
the rye, fall wheat and early oats in
the southern counties are in shock,
and threshing will begin in that sec
ton of the state during the coming
week, with, prospects of good to
heavy yields. About half OF the hay
has been put up in fine condition.
The quality Of timothy is extra good,
and while the yield is not quite up to
the average, it is much better than
last year Reports continue to indi.
cate that much of the timothy will be
saved for seed, especially in southern
counties. All field crops are now in
prime condition, and with occasional
