FREIGHT Rates
INCREASES FROM
WESTERN POINTS
ARE SUSPENDED

Washington, Dec. 14.-Proposed in :
creases in freight rates on live stock,
fresh meats and packing house pro-
ducts from Chicago, ST. Louis and
other western centers to Eastern cit
les were suspended today by the In
terstate Commerce Commission until
April Is for investigation.
1t is estimated that had the In
creased rates been permitted to 80
into effect they would have yielded to
the roads an added income of nearly
S10,000,000 annually.
The proposed advances affected not
only live stock of all kinds but fresh
meats and packing house products OF
every description.
Vigorous protests against the in
creases were made to the commission
not only by the meat packers anu
livestock producers, but also by the
general consuming public.
The commission in its order of to-
day did not pass upon the reasonable
ness or the unreasonableness of the
proposed advances, but indicated that
they would be made the subject of an
investigation.

LANSDOWNE Lend UNQUALIFIED
SUPPORT TO THE GOVERNMENT

astrous to the country. In a moment
the whole situation was changed, :
I'm our country there is no single in
stance since Parliamentary government
was introduced where the government
engaged in conducting a war has not
been hampered and harrassed by the ac-
ton of the opposition.
Il think it is quite possible that we
have made the mistake, not of criticizinz
the government too much, but of criti-
Ching 1t too little; but If a mistake had
to be made 1 prefer that it were made
in that direction"
Mr.. Bonar Law said that after four
months since the beginning of the war he
could look forward to the future with
hope and complete confidence.
Germany he said. ''hss failed. They
cannot crush France and already the
Russian armies are on their frontiers.
We have terrible struggle in front of
us, but the final result is not in doubt.
The greatest honor which can come upon
us as party will be that when the war
is over we can truthfully say that we
nothing common did or mean upon that
memorable scene "

ty for the second time OF the illegal pos

; Lessor entered plea of not guilty.
Deputy Sheriffs John Roderick and
Charles Harrington testified that they

Saturday. On the first search nothing
was found, but the second time small
coffee pot was found behind the counter
with a small quantity of whiskey. and
three half pint bottles in the rear of the
building under the&stairs. The sheriffs
claimed that on their first trip the same
places were searched but. nothing found.
Lessor swore that he knew nothing of
the presence OF the liquor on the prem
ises, not even OF taat IN the 7coHee pot
behind the bar.
There were also three cases of intoxi-s
cation. One was given sentence of 30
days and payment of costs. A9s, but the
sentence was suspended ON payment of
costs and respondent placed on proba-
ton for one year with the understand
ing that the sentence with 90 days addi-
tional would be carried into effect at the

ond offence was given Is days at hard

The many friends of Miss Annie
Mclaughlin WIFI be grieyed to hear
of her death at the Sisters hospital
Monday. Miss Mclaughlin and her
sister had returned from California
only a week ago after a very serious
operation and the patient had been
resting comfortably at the Sisters
hospital and hopes of her ultimate re-
covery had been entertained. The de-
ceased had been employed for about
seven years at the L. II. Soper store
on Main street and had host of
friends in this city. 1t was hoped that
the trip to Los Angeles had greatly
improved the young lady's health but
the effects of the operation combined
with the long trip back were too
much for her failing strength. Up 20
the time of leaving for the West she
had lived with her mother and sister
on Center street. She leaves moth
er. two sisters, Mrs. Alice Mason of
this city, and Mrs. Ada Stewart OF
Chicago; and brother, Rodney, OF

dence of Mrs F. F. Noyes. Center
