FOR 0RRATEADvANCE
Representatives of Western
Roads Before Board.
Wright, for Companies, Seeks
to Justify Tariff Boost.

Washington, June 22.-Representa-
tives of the principal western railroads
began general argument today before
the interstate commerce commission in
support of their applications for in
creased freight rates on grain, live
stock, coal and many other commodi-
ties
Members of state railway commits
SionS and Representatives of shippers
opposed to the increases were ready to
present their side.
The commission first heard argu-
ment on the financial condition of the
roads by C.. G.. Wright.
Faced with increased taxes higher
costs of labor and added expenses in
many other directions, he contended,
an increase on some of the more i'm
portant commoditie is justified and
will be approved by the public. .
I'VE feel" said he, that the public
wants good service in this territory,
but it must expect to pay for it,
Mr.. Wright suggested the carriers
might cut expenses by reducing fire.
quency of trains, but thought the pub
lie would not approve.
I'VE came here to see this case de-
termined on the records and the
facts" said he. 'It is not a question
of influencing this commission by a
weak or a strong railway. but the
question is to be determined by facts,
and for that reason we have opened
our entire records to the protestants.' -
Clifford Thorne, speaking for six
teen state railway commissions and
several shippers and farmers organi-
cations. argued against the increases.
Mr.. Thorne added he did not think
I per cent was too great a return on
apital stock, but that the railroad
estimates were bas d on book cost of
their properties.
He said the railroads repre-
sentatives had come to the commission
with a selected list of railroad and
nothing else, and that IN reaching the
conclusion that forty-one roads in the
western territory showed the necessity
of added revenue, they had left out of
consideration such carriers as the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific,
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific.
Willis E. Reed, attorney general of
Nebraska, also argued against the in

QUIET AT ATLANTA
Small Sign Today of Repetition

Militia About SIatOn's Home

Atlanta, June 22.-While the militia
still was on guard at Governor Sla-

both there and in the city today, and
there was no indication of a repetition
of the exciting scenes of yesterday and
last night, which followed the an
nouncement of the communication of

In the city, the near-beer saloons
which were closed by the authorities
yesterday were allowed to reopen this
morning and there were no crowds in
the streets.
At the governors home it was stat

withdrawn tonight.

BY KARL ACKERMAN.

Berlin, June 22.-That the German
war office desires to avoid anything
likely to interfere with a peaceful un-
derstanding with the United States
was the Interpretation placed today
on the suspension of the newspaper
Deutsche Tages Zeitung.
Announcement that the paper
would not appear for an indefinite
period was made last night. The ban
is said to have been ordered because
of an editorial that attacked America
recently.
Count Fly i'm Ointment.
While no further explanation has
offered, it was accepted here that
Count Reventiows comment upon the
Lusitania sinking and the German
American negotiations formed the
reasons.
The American colony considered the
suspension of the paper the most sig
nificant development of the whole
situation. Count sReventlow, the
Tages Zeitung's wide quoted naval
and military writer, has shown the
least tendency toward conciliation of
all the German writers. The fact that
the paper that carried his articles has
been suspended is, therefore. looked
upon as matter of great Importance.

Three MONTHS IN JAIL
But Judge Fisher Granted Mrs. Bell
Parole on Account of Child.

Three months sentence to the coun-
ty jail for each of them, with an inn
mediate parole for the woman, and
promise of a parole if their behavior
is above criticism, for the man after a
short imprisonment, was the ruling of
Judge Hugh Fisher in the court of To-
peka in the case of Mrs. ]. H Bell and

Bell alleged that her husband deserted
her two years ago, leaving her with a
small child to support and that she
had not seen him since. The little
girl is with her grandparents and is
supported by the mothers earnings.
