MENTs, PRACTICALLY, GO
BY MAIL
The EXPENSE GOES ON
EFFORTS TO cURTTAlL OUTLAY
FOR OPERATION HAVE
BEEN FRUITLEsS

San Francisco, Sept. 20.-Testifying
before the state railroad commission,
which continued today its inquiry into
the relations between the Southern
Pacific railroad and the Wells Fargo
Express company, Vice President and
General Manager ChrIsuansen of the
latter declared that parcel post com
petition had caused the company TO
lose 31,7 per cent of small packages
since the first of the year, when the
government service was established.
In the same period, he said, the com
pany's revenue had been reduced 33
per cent, and this percentage, he af-
firmed, held good for all othes express
companies.
I'VE are confronted, he asserted,
with the proposition of increased ex-
penses, decreased business and de-
creased revenues. The competition
demands increased service, and while
we have increased the service, our
net profit has shrunk since as far
back as 1910, In 1909 we made a net
profit Of 13 per cent; in 1910 this
shrank to II per cent; in 1911 to 8
per cent; in 1912 to 6 per cent, and
in 1913 it will be per cent"
per cent on what?' asked Commits
sioner Gordon.
"On the money we take in"
Not on the investment, then?"
Christiansen shook his head.
"But wasn't it in 1910 that Wells
Fargo declared an extra dividend of
$24,OOOO00?' asked Gordon.
Christiansen said he did not know.
He then went on to say that the com
pany had failed in its efforts to re-
duce operating expenses and that it
had adopted many reforms.

MO. p Is DEFIANT

Jecerson City, Mo, Sept. 20.-Gen
eral Solicitor Clardy Of the Missouri
Pacific railroad today notified the
public service commission that the
railroad would not comply with the
ruling of the commission that through
rates for continuous shipments over
two or more lines must prevail over
the higher local rates.
Solicitor Clardy says such a rule
is unjust, as extra work is required
to transfer shipments from one line
to another.

BRYANS LECTURES
NETTED $1,000
SECRETARY OF STATE SAYS HE
LOST BUT SEVEN DAYS
TIME MAKING IT

Washington, Sept. TO- Secretary
Bryan will conclude his chautauqua
lectures for the season tonight with
an address at Watertown, Va
Mr.. Bryan issued this statement:
This evening is the last Of the
chautauqua lectures for this season.
The total income from chautauQua
lectures this year is little over 81
600. The net receipts, after taking
out the necessary expenses, are some
thing over $6,5OO. The number of
whole week days which have been
used for sthe lectures is, according TO
my recollection, seven. The remand
er of the lectures have been delivered
at places near enough to this city to
leave in the afternoon, some times as
late as o'clock. I would not assume
that the public was interested IN these
details. were it not for the fact that
the representatives or a few newspa-
pers have regarded It as a mayer Of
great Importance.
When Mr. Bryan was asked IL he
would lecture any more during his
connection with the state department
he replied:
Il expect to lecture whenever I
deem it desirable or necessary to do
so, and have not in the least altered
the plans which were made at the
time 1 assumed the duties of the Of
flee. The criticism that has been di-
rected against my lecturing is no
more bitter than the criticism / have
undergone at other times and for
other things during my connection
with politics.
"A part Of this criticism is malic.
ious, part of it is partisan and a
part of it is based upon misinforma.
ton. That which is malicious will
answer itself, that which is partisan
viii be accepted as such, that which
is based on misinformation win cease
when the critics are better informed.
NO man should enter public life
il he objects to criticism and he can
not stay in public life il he permits
criticism to turn him from doing what
he thinks IS right. He must decide
his duty for himself and is answerable
to the public for any mistakes ne
makes. regard lecturing as an en-
tirely legitimate field. I lectured be-
fore I was nominated for the presi-
dency. ! lectured between campaigns.
! shall continue to lecture and / shall
not believe that any person whose
opinion Is worth having will think the
less Of me because i do So This
closes the lecture subject for the
present.
