nix rate cases, and would reduce rates
to the intermountain territory, they
would materially increase rates from all
the east to Pacific coast points.
The proposed tariffs which affect all
transcontinental traffic, were filed by
r. II. Countiss, of Chicago for all the
transcontinental railroads. 1t always
has been contended by the railroads
that these rates were too low.
The commission has not checked up
the tariffs with present rates, but such
examination as had been possible in
dicates that the increases to the Pa.
cific terminals are considerably greater
than the reduction to the inter Rocky
mountain territory.
Mr.. Countiss says that some carload
rates to terminal points are advanced
on commodities which are not subject

but reduces the rates to interior des.

Some commodity rates in force at
present, are absolutely eliminated, thus
automatically transferring the articles
shipped to the western classification un.

Mr. Countiss maintains that this ad-
justment would relieve the discrimina-
ton against interior destinations, which
now exists.
A thorough examination Of the
tariffs will be made by the commission,
and should they be deemed unreason.
able, they will be suspended. Already
protests against them have been made
by some shippers, but no action has
been taken.

FREAKS OF LIGHTNING
NOME PHENOMENA OF THE eLeo
TRIO CURRENT EXPLAINED
Wooden Roofs Are Struck oftenes
Than Those Of Metal, Slate Or
Other Materials, Declares q
Fire Warden.

There Is not as much danger from
buildings being struck by lightning al
most people suppose. Last year OF
1883 buildings being struck by light.
ming great number were barns.
OF these buildings 95S had wooden
roofs, "a were metal. 80 were slate and
SIG were not described.
OF this whole number only 40 were
rodded. 1855 were not, and 952 were
not reported.
In the ten years, 1898 to 1908, Ger.
man investigators found that Of all
buildings struck, 9 per cent Of those
having hard roofs and So per cent OF
those having soft roofs were not ~
on fire.
Older writer's say that risks Of build
lngs being struck by lightning Is I'VE
times greater In the country than In
the city. Electricity 10 present in
the earth and in the atmosphere at
all times. The amount in the atmos-
phere varies from time to time, but
becomes large during so-called mag
netic storms. These storms are usual
ly accompanied by auroral displays
and are often coincident with sun
spots.
1t has been found that there IL an
excess Of negative electricity in the
surface Of the earth and an excess Of
positive electricity in the atmosphere.
AS like electricity repels and unlike
electricity attracts. It follows that
there 10 a constant Interchange or
movement of the positive electricity
In the air toward the earth and Of the
negative electricity in the earth to-
ward and into the atmosphere.
At times this Is so marked that
there is visible discharge from OBJ
jects extending into atmosphere, like
masts on vessels, or from the bodies
OF persons standing on mountain tops.
Just as there is sometimes between
the finger and rapidly moving belt.
This brush-like discharge is called
st. Elmo's fire." One man went out
On the summit of Pixies Peak with q

Thunderstorms will be generated
wherever there is a rapidly rising cur.
rent of very moist air. Why and how
we do not know. We do know, how
ever, that moisture Is condensed from
water vapor upon minute particles of
dust and upon electric ions. We know
also that each drop of water, large

THE .HILO POLICE

HTLO, April 21.-Sheriff Pua left
last Sunday for Kona, to appear be-
fore the circuit court at Kailua to
make return of the grand and trial
jury panels.
So far there has been only one
change made in the personnel of the
police. James Kepoo, an officer of
several years service. resigned last
week In his place has been APP
pointed Charles Kaina,- who was
lieutenant of police at Waiakea,, I'M
til he was arrested by the federal
authorities for receiving a bride in
connection with the famous Barker
opium case. kama is now under a
federal indictment for perjury in the
same matter.
Sheriff Pua stated, when asked if
he did not think that under the pres
ent circumstances the public might
look with considerable disapproval on
the appointment of a man who was
under Indictment for a serious Of
Tense, that kama had been a good
officer, and that the case against him
had been dragging on so long that
to continue to keep him suspendel
from the force seemed a hardship.
Collector Baird had demonstrated, it
was true, but United States Attorney
Rreckons had not answered several
letters which Pua had written to him
in regard to the kama case. Pua
said further that he did not know
