SAYS RAILROADS
MADE POOR CASE

Asserting the railroads made no
case emitting them to the order they
prayed for before the Intestate Com
merce commission, the members of
the Nevada railroad commission re-
turned to Reno yesterday hopeful they
had STAYED off the petition to reduce
the coast rates while leaving the in
termountain rates without correspon-
ding reduction.
Chairman Bartine, Commissioner
Shaughnessy, Commissioner Simmons
and Secretary Walker arrived on an
early train after appearing for five
days~in Chicago in conjunction with
other intermountain representatives
before Examiner Thurtell.
Commissioner Simmons declared
that the railroads had presented the
same old story Of water competition
an element which he said was mat
ter Of anticipation and not an exist
ing considerable factor. Chairman
Bartine took part In the conduct OF
the opposition and Commissioners
Simmons and Shaughnessy as well
as Secretary Walker testified. Com.
missioner Shaughnessy and Secretary
Walker testified as to the remuner.
alton afforded by existing rates sub.
mitting tables based on the rates
themselves to show that even full
terminal rate to Reno would afford
ample return.
Commissioner Simmons was on the
stand nearly all of one day under
cross-examinatlon by Attorney Don
nelley and gave testimony showing
the effect Of the proposed exception,
on Nevada territory He showed that
for the class under consideration the
commodities included 85 percent of
the Nevada tonnage and rs per cent Of
this So was from Chicago points
which now was entitled under the re-
cent zone rate rule to a terminal plus
2 per cent. II the exception asked by
the railroad were permitted, Califor.
MIA could buy from Chicago and ship
10 Nevada cheaper than Nevada
could buy from Chicago.

LUMP OF BUTTER
CAUSE OF KILLING

Argument over a lump of butter was
the primary cause of the quarrel
which ended yesterday in the killing
of George A. Wada, Japanese restuar-
ant proprietor, by Fred Wilson, clerk
at the Clarendon hotel at Reno. The
shooting, as stated in last nights Ga
zette, occurred in the afternoon, short
ly otter one o'clock. Wada died at
about $3.50 o'clock after having been
operated on by DR.. E. p. Gregory,
Eight perforations of the intestines
were made by the bullet from VIII.
sons gun.
Of1cers are today investigating the
story of Wilson to the effect that
Wada approached him with a.club and
that he shot in SELF, defense. The club,
sawed-of billiard cue. is at the
police station and is said to be the
club which Wilson kept at the hotel
desk for use in case a weapon should
be needed.

NEVADA SUGAR
REMAINS UNSOLD

That is not good time to try to
realize on some 10000 sacks Of sugar,
the product of the Nevada Sugar COM
.pany, because of peculiar market con-
ditions, was disclosed yesterday be-
fore Judge Salisbury In the district
court. In the matter OF the case OF
Thomas Diff against Nevada Sugar
company, !. H. Kent, receiver, and w.
II. Simmons. wholesaler and member
OF the railroad commission, testified
that the best interests of all would be
subserved by keeping the sugar on
the market, or at least to selling only
to local demand. An order was made
by the court authorizing the receiver
to hold the sugar on hand rather than
sell 1t at disadvantageous. price.
To ship the sugar to an eastern
market big enough to handle 1t in
lump would cost 60 cents sack
freight and the price would probably
be low, Simmons testified He said
there had been much speculation in
sugar which was bought up in large
lots as low as 81 and $3.50 sack.
Those who have speculated must drop
this great amount of sugar on the
market some time to take their prof
its and this will depress the price.
Commissioners Simmons said he would
not be surprised to see the price of
sugar below the low point to date,
but that ultimately 1t must go up
when the gambling is over and the
real demand calls on all the available
supply. BY selling sugar locally at
market from day to day in small lots,
the witness said there was greater
safety and remuneration than by at
tempting to convert the goods inn.

tary Of War Garrison that he intend
ed to send all available Arizona mil
itia to Naco for the protection of

Ing everything possible to prevent

day that the constitutionalist garrison
at Naco numbers $500 and they were
outnumbered by the attacking force.

Secretary Garrison said: "Any Ill
considered move on our side may
precipitate an armed conflict between
American forces and Mexicans, the
