APPLIES ONLY TO THE
IDAHO BRANCH LINES
Action by Railroad Indicates
That the Oregon Short
Line Will Comply With
Commissions Order With
out Further Opposition.

The peoples fight for lower freight
rates from the Oregon Short Line car
ried on by the public utilities commis-
sion is productive of results. Tariffs
filed with the commission by that road
order important reductions in coal
rates to Idaho points, clearly indicating
that this common carrier will comply
without further opposition to the COM
missions recent ruling for reduced
freight rates on branch lines The
main reductions are given to points
on the Hill City branch, on which the
ruling was rendered The arbitrary
freight rate placed on coal at the time
it reached the main line junction to be
sent over the branch has been removed
in the new tariffs.
Same Rate That Boise Has.
The Hill City branch now has the
same rate on coal per ton that the
Short Line gives to Boise from the
mines, or $3.50 per ton. This Is reduc-
ton on the rates to Hill City of $3.50
per ton, to Selby spur of $1.25 per ton,
to Macon and Blaine of 81 per ton, to
Magic of rs cents per ton and to Raw
son and Burmah of 30 cents per ton.
Reductions in coal freight rates to a
dozen other branch line points are
made in the new tariffs. These rates
go into effect June II. The rate ap-
plies to lump, run of mine, nut and
slack coal. 1t will mean the saving of
thousands of dollars to consumers in
southern Idaho.
The Oregon Short Line had 40 days
under the ruling of the public utilities
commission in the Hill City rate case
in which to file its tariffs making the
reductions in freight rates ordered by
the commission in deciding for the
shippers and against the railroad in
that case The first tariff showing the
reductions made on coal, an important
article to southern Idaho consumers,
has been filed with the commission. 1t
had been rumored the Oregon Short
Line might contest the commissions
order but the filing of the tariff is
taken to indicate there will not be a
prolonged procedure before the courts
before the consumers and shippers Of
southern Idaho will receive direct
benefits from the act of the commits
sion in ordering the reduction in
freight rates.
Complaint of Long Standing.
Inere mas LOT years Deen complaint
on the part of consumers and jobbers
in this state over the high freight
rates charged by the Oregon Short
Line for coal delivered from the mines.
Little relief has been secured from the
common carrier until commission
was created to supervise public utili-
ties and railroads. That the commits
sion has the power to order a reduc-
ton in freight rates was evidenced in
its Hill City ruling. That the Oregon
Short Line realizes this now, is also
said to be true as indicated by the
filing of the new tariff. 1t Is generally
conceded that the first step In the fight

and called an assassin by one who al
legged that his brother had been killed
by order of the ex minister of the in
terror, DIR. Aureliano Urrutia, who held
that office and was once Huerta's
most trusted counsellor, was arrested
for the second time yesterday since his
arrival here few hours earlier among
refugees from the capital
Dr. Urrutia had fled from Mexico
City to escape the wrath of the presi-
dent, and had the appearance on an
ordinary laboring man when he dis
closed his identity on board the Amer

was detained by the American officers
and taken before Brigadier General

free.

meath the window of the room occu-

hotel and began an impassioned speech.
He shouted:

that Urrutia was responsible for the
execution of his brother, one of the
deputies of the congress which Huerta
dissolved. He challenged Urruta to
appear before the small crowd of his
countrymen who had already gathered.

minutes later DIR. Urrutia was also
taken to police headquarters, but as
there was no evidence warranting his
detention he was led back through a
great crowd to the hotel. guard
was then placed outside his door.

FL Paso, May 19.-The authorization
given his delegates to the mediation
conference by Huerta to present his
resignation if necessary to insure
peace in Mexico and the intimation
that Luis Cabrera, constitutionalist
leader, would be acceptable to the fed
erals as a provisional president. are
regarded by constitutionalist leaders
here simply as an attempt by the
Huerta party to win some concessions
from a struggle in which they have
been defeated at every turn.
The constitutionalists reiterated that
the contest must be pressed through to
the end. They said they were not
fighting an individual but a political
condition, supported and backed by
the party Of which Huerta Is the head.
They indicated they thought any COM
promise whatever with the so-called
"Cientiflcos" would be fatal to their
plans for reform and that such a COM
promise would be followed by other
periods of unrest and revolution.
Regarding the proposal to make Luis
Cabrera provisional president. 1t was
stated that Senor Cabrera was thor
oughly conversant with the conditions
which confronted both the federads and
constitutionalists and with the purpose
of the proposal. 1t was said by con-

able that Senor Cabrera would lend
himself to such proposal or allow his
