MILEAGE RATE TO

New York, Sept. $ Practically all of the railroad companies wt-ts lines touching the New Yos-k city district the so called trunk nne-with the ex- ception of the New York Central. have filed with the IuteIstate Commerce Commission the information that they will raise their mileage rates on toc- tober l from 2 cel,rs mic 10 T. certs. The advance will be made in accordance with the recommendations of the commission at the time it handed down the Eastern freight rate decision in which it was said that each class of traffic should bear it's part of the general expense Unless the commission refuses its permission the new mileage rates vii go into ef- feet next month.

YOUNG DUKE OF
 SUTHERLAND, 26 TO-DAY

7 One of the largest, if not the lar gest, of British landowners is the young Duke. of Sutherland. who was born twenty six years ago to-day, and who succeeded to the duledorn last year. The Duke was trained as 9 soldier. and served as lieutenant of the Second Dragoons. The late Duke was the owner of more than a mil lion and quarter acres. but a part of the ancestral estate. including Stafford House, which Sir William Lever purchased and presented to the nation, has been sold.
 Although he is Great Britain's foremost landlord, in the matter of acreage, the rent rolls of the young Duke are inferior to those of the Norolks, the westninsters and the Bedfords, who have large and prof itab1e holdings in London.
 One of the most dramatic fncidents of the sutherland-Leveson- Cover family history was the poisoning of the twelfth earl by his uncle's widow, who hoped thus to secure the title and estate for her son. The earls
