OPPOSE LOWERING
OF PILOTAGE RATES
Maritime Exchange Believes
Such Course Would Lessen
Efficiency

Maritime interests at Philadelphia
are not in favor of the bill recently
introduced into the Pennsylvania Leg
islature to cut the present pilotage
rates on the Delaware river and bay
in half, according to the action taken
yesterday at a meeting of the board of
directors Of the Maritime Exchange.
which adopted resolutions condemn
ing the act which will be forwarded
to Harrisburg.
Two years ago a similar bill was
presented to the Legislature. Il was
defeated after the Maritime Exchange
had protested against It, One member
of the board said yesterday at the
close of the meeting that the high
standard of efficiency of the pilots at
this port would be decreased in the
event Of the bills passage, as the In
come of the pilots would be so les
seued that the competent men would
find other fields for their work. The
present rates are IS per foot of draft.
The directors also drew up re-
quest on the Secretary of the Treas
ury to use his influence to have the ice
patrol which did such successful work
last year continued this year from
April to June 80. It was asked
that one of the vessels of the revenue
cutter service be detailed for tho
work.

ground in the plot between Tenth and
Eleventh, and King and French
streets yesterday workmen found a
skull on the forehead of which was
an old penny of the size used many
years ago.
The presence of the coin is ac-
counted for by the custom in those

to keep them closed. The other coin,
however, was not found.

of those dead for many years con-
tinues and good progress is being

TO the friends who came to us in
our hour of trouble, and contributed
all that human kindness could sug-
gest, to help and comfort, we return
most heartfelt thanks. And although
such devoted friendship cannot re-
move the sad memories that linger,
it brings into view the brightest side
of humanity, and throws the pure
light of an unselfish friendship into II
darkened home. We thank them for
the generous aid and tender sympathy
they brought to our home when death
was an inmate there.

RAY D. OSTERGREN KILLS
SELF ON WIDDlFlELD RANCH

and found the body Just as it had
fallen after the fatal shot.
Those who viewed the body were
of the opinion that Ostergren commit
ted suicide. but Mr.. Millc- who ar
rived shortly after tho occurrence
could not believe that such could be
the case. He had known the young
man from boyhood and knew of no
reason why he should take his life.
Mr.. Miller is of the opinion that
while fooling with the gun he dis
charged it accidentally.
The bullet entered his breast almost
in the center and must have pierced
the heart, causing death instantly,
because he showed no signs of having
struggled. A small piece of broom
handle lay across his arm and it
looked as though he had used it to
push the trigger, but then other rea-
sons have come up us to why he had
the stick.
The coroner of Fergus county was
notified and took charge of the body
this morning. Relatives in Minnea-
polls were notified. Mr.. Miller has
arranged to have the body embalmed
and sent back to st. Paul.

COURT GRANTS
AN INJUNCTION

Judge Mathews granted an injunc-
ton last Friday night, restraining the
county clerk from calling the election
of May 8, for the creation of Wheat
land county. The injunction, how.
ever, is only temporary, and will be
of no value unless certain condition
Of granting are fulfilled anda perman-
ent order of restraint given.
The Injunction was the result of
All action Of E. c. Baxter ct al, VS..
George Fowlie, county clerk, asking
that the clerk bs restrained from call
ing the election. The condition was
stipulated that if the money should
be deposited to cover the expense
which Meagher county has already
incurred, the permanent injunction
would be granted.
In the meantime, until the perman-
ent order is filed, the county clerk
must go ahead with the election proc
lamation. The total expense amounts
to about 5000, and we understand the
amount is not yet in the hands Of the
proper officials. In case the money is
not forthcoming, it IS very likely that
the permanent injunction will not
be granted. Because OF the fact that
the present boundries wOvld not leave
other counties their required val,la
ton, Is generally conceded that the
election would not belegal, and would
not hold.-White Sulphur Springs Re-
