CATION.
The Conditions Changed.
Furthermore, the conditions now con.
fronting the transcontnental roads are
different from those OF two or three years
90. The Panama Canal. with its poten-
rality as a competitor. is about to be
opened to the commerce Of the world. and
his circumstance alone will create an en-
tirely new set of conditions.
The commission has not yet taken up
for formal consideration yesterdays de-
csion OF the Supreme Court. but it WIS
said to-day that when the matter does
come up formally consideration will have

and the question considered whether or

reopen the proceedings in one way or

The expectation Is that the carriers
themselves will file an application for a

consideration newly discovered evidence
IA the form Of changed conditions.
The situation il additionally interesting
IN view of the comments the commission

and the fact that railroads are prohibit 4
from owning or controlling water carriers
The commission said at the time II de-
cLed the ntermountaln cases.
The railroads must soon meet with
the competition by water more in

The cutting of thus canal will In ef-
teci bring the Strait OF Magellan
1900 miles to the northward. and
with modern steamships it is estl-
mated that San Francisco will be by

strange freak OF nature certain indi-
