$4,000 Taken From Safe and
Money TIL al Counter
WORK DONE BETWEEN THREE AND
FOUR YESTERDAY MORNING.
No Arrests Have Been Made As
Yet But Officers Are Working
Hard on Case.

Between the hours OF three and four
O'Clock yesterday morning the office
OF the Hotel Rogerson was entered by
robber and more than four hundred
dollars taken from the safe and cash
drawer.
The work was evidently done by
some one acquainted with the
hotel and who knew that the night
clerk went to sleep about three o'clock.
When the clerk laid down everything
was all right around the office, but
when he got up at five o'clock he
found the till and the safe open. The
safe was not locked and it was an
easy matter for the thief to take the
cash box with the money and checks.
The robber made a clean haul, taking
what change there was in the cigar
case. The police and sheriff's office
are doing all in their power to appre-
bend the guilty party or parties.

BRIDGE ACROSS SNAKE
River Can Be Spanned Above Falls
With Little Trouble.

There is now being considered the
feasibility of a wagon bridge across
the Snake river at Shoshone Falls
across the river and not across the
canyon. This is coming down to prac-
tlcal talk and is proposition wor-
thy of serious consideration. It is
said that the river Just above the falls
can be spanned with a 4O0-foot bridge,
and estimates place the cost of a first
class steel structure at less than s2O.-
00O AS The News recalls the condi-
tons at both places, it is smaller
job to put a wagon bridge across the
river at Shoshone Falls than it was at
Blue lakes. AS l. B. Perrine built a
bridge at the latter point two years
ago, there should be little difficulty
in ascertaining the probable cost of a
bridge at Shoshone Falls. The News
will not lift finger toward securing
bridge at Shoshone Falls unless it
be free public bridge when built
Its building is small job for the
state, assisted by Lincoln and Twin
Falls counties 1t is gratifying to see
something practical and obtainable ad-
vocated for once and the south side
should have the hearty cooperation
OF the north side in the project.-North

REDUCTION IN RATES
Will Cost Express Companies S26,OOO,-
900 Per Year.

Washington, Aug. 4.-Reductions in
express rates which will cost the
companies $26,000,000 year, approxi-
mately 16 per cent of the gross reve-
nue., were ordered by the interstate
commerce commission today to be-
come effective on or before Oct. Is,
Notable reforms in the practices also
were ordered. The most important
thing is modification of the present
graduated scale of parcel rates. One
hundred-pound rates for short dis
tances either have been left UNCHANGED
or slightly reduced. For packages of
more than four pounds going over 200
and less than 1000 miles the new ex-
press rates are generally lower than
the parcel post rates. For more than
5000 miles the rates are generally the
same.
The order is virtually an affirma-
ton of the findings of former Com
missioner Lane, now secretary of the
interior. By prescribing the so-called
block system, dividing the United
States into $50 blocks, the 900, 900 900
different rates now published by the
express companies will be reduced to
less than 650,000. The commission be-
'o'co Ihe osslein points way TO the
solution of the. existing problem of
freight rates.
The express companies filed state
ments indicating that the loss of reve-
nue. under the proposed rates would
be intolerable and argued strenuous
ly that the establishment of the parcel
post had deprived them of 80 per cent
OF the revenue they formerly received
from parcels of II pounds or less. The
new system is not only a simplifica-
ton of the existing rate methods, but
in the opinion of rate experts, lays the
foundation for future practice in all
rate revisiOns.-Capital News.

went to two sets, but every point a

the next day to this city. Starting at
O'Clock Sunday morning, the party
reached Contact with little or no
trouble and paid a visit to the mines.
PRESIDENT Bush personally inspecting
several of the developed mines. The
palance OF the trip to this city was
made under adverse conditions, owing
to the cars running into the storm
belt. Muddy roads and skidding cars
made bad combination, but through
1t all the visitors headed by Mr.. Bush
made light of the matter and helped
to tide over disagreeable period of the
trip. The eight railroad men divided
among the five cars asked many uues-
tions and showed very thorough
knowledge of conditions here, in fact
clearer knowledge than any of the
Twin Falls men.
President Bush did not do any un-
necessary talking about the railroad
and his questions for the most part
were straight to the point. In the
