search and seizure process and who
appealed and was put under bond for
his appearance at court here, failed
to do so. Judge Lawrence ordered

and added costs making the total
fine, $243, and so days in Jail. In
stead of coming to court however,
Crawford fed to Boston. Deputy
sheriff Brophy of Fairfield was sent
by Sheriff Mooers to Jackman to try
to locate Crawford but on going to
his home it was stated that he was
not there and his whereabouts were
not known. Deputy Brophy's next
move was to take the train out of
Jackman for Greenville and while
there he boarded night freight run

OEMANS AN INVESTIGATION

Senator Culberson of Texas,
stirred the republican animals in
the senate Wednesday when he
demanded an investigation of
campaign expenses in 1904 and
1908. He made sweeping charges
of corruption against the republi-
can committees for those and other
years. Indirectly he charged that
foreign ambassadorships we're be-
slowed as q reward for campaign
contributions, and that former
President Roosevelt had condoned
the use of money in politics.
Referring especially to the cam
paign of 1908, Mr.. Culberson said

 mission at Washington.

Washington, May 17.-Attorney General Cosson. of Iowa, today pre- sented the case of the State Board oi Railroad Commissioners, of Iowa against the Atlantic Coast Line and 150 other railroads before the Inter- state Commerce Commission. Attor- ney Cosson claimed that rates on glu- cose and by products from points nearby Clinton, Iowa, to eastern points were unreasonable.
 It was stated that the railroads generally have increased the rates on glucose on eastbound shipments and reduced the rates on the raw mater ial. This it is claimed gives the east ern shipper an undue advantage ov- CT the manufacturers located in To- wa.
 The Commission was asked to put into effect an entirely new schedule of rates.

The rate of Sioux City was particularly attacked. it being stated by MT. Bell that the advance to that city was greater in proportion to the haul than to the other places named
 This is claimed to be discrimina- ton against Sioux City. The restora- tion of the old rates, amounting to graduated scale of from 9 cents to 26 1-2 cents was urged. The increase from 26 1-2 to 30 cents per hundred pounds was asked to be adiudged un- reasonable.

 RATES ABOLISHED

South western and 175 other railroads be- fore the Iryerstate Commerce Com- mission
 It was brought out in '.he argu, ment that the rates to New Albany, from various points in the South. take the join'4 rate to Lou sville plus the local rate to New Albany. This is claimed to be discrimination against New Albany manufacturers.
 Even if the complainants ale mis- taken stated MT. Hines, ''in suppos- ing Hat th'a rates to New Albany proper through Louisville should ba the same as to Louisville, the diff ference made by adding to the rate to Louisville and full local rate from Louisville to New Albany in all cases is extortionate to the extens of at least some part of that difference.''
 The change in the present tariffs is asked by reason of the alleged discrimination in favor of corporal. ons loca'ed in Louisville, Cincinnati, Evansville and oher nearby points.
