'The Kangaroo" at The Liberty.

"The Kangaroo" at The Liberty. Tonight the World Film corpora tion presents the Kangaroo at the Liberty Theatre.
 "The Kangaroo" the Terrors of Old New Orleans, deals with an cpl sode of the slave-holding states, about 1S34-1835. An arch conspirator known as Shack" headed gang known among themselves as the spec ulators. This gang recruited repre- sentatives from all over the Southern States. Their membership included from the lowest strata of white up to ministers of. the gospel, judges, sheriffs, and men in high offices. No robbery, large or small, was disdain- ed. Slave running also proved very lucrative. The slaves were induced to escape from their masters with the promise to run them North,. where they could secure freedom. Once in their power the gang would embark them in boats. dispose of them to some member of their interruptions band and send them to worse slavery in the farther south. All this was criminal enough, but the "Specula- tors' were organized for far more terrible purpose, viz., on given day (secretly decided upon) the slaves were to rise against their masters, and the "Speculators" taking advan- tage of the whites attention being centered on saving their lives and subjugating the slaves, were to loot all plantations, stores, banks, etc., and escape with their booty to Mex ico. In this film they are shown in one of their nefarious operations, in a series of thrilling situations and scenes teeming with action.
 Shown at the Liberty Theatre to- night.

 ALASKA ARE TOO HIGH.

OF INTEREST TO SHIPPERS
Interstate Commerce Hearing on op-
Grafton of Great Northern Pacific
Steamship Company.

Portland, Ore, June 12.-Unusual
public interest is centered in the in
terstate commerce commission hear
ing to be held in San Francisco June
%, to determine whether or not the
operation of the Great Northern Pa
cific Steamship company between
Portland, Flavel-Astoria and San
Fransico is in violation of the inter
state commerce law which prohibits
railroad corporations from owning and
controlling stock in competitive steam
ship lines. Shippers of the Northwest
are interested in the outcome for the
reason that the service afforded by
the Great Northern Pacific Steamship
company between these points is in
the nature of direct competition with
the Southern Pacific railway, which
heretofore has had virtual monopoly
of the freight carrying business be-
tween Portland and San Francisco.
The contention of the Pacific coast
shippers is that the law under which
investigation is being made was Gre
ated for the express purpose of pre-
venting railway companies from buy
ing competitive steamships for the
purpose of eliminating competition,
and that an adverse ruling in the case
of the Great Northern Pacific Steam
ship company would result in de-
priving the shippers and travellers of
Portland, Seattle, Spokane and other
Washington, Montana, Minnesota,
North Dakota and California points
of the additional service which the
two passenger-express boats Of the
line have furnished them.

Mayor McLeish was indicted for
charging excessive fees IN the case OF
four foreigners arrested in an assault
and battery case. He assessed costs
as though there we're four separate
afidayits, whereas the state con-
tended that there should have been
but one affidavit and costs collected
for one case only.
The trial of Mayor McLeish began
Immediately after Safety Director H.
w. Patterson entered plea of guilty
to a charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses and received q GUS
pended sentence.
The case was in progress three
days. During the arguments Judge
John A. Mansfield, state representa-
tive for the defense, declared 1t was
through ignorance of the workings Of
the Office that the mayor had erred.
There are two other municipal
cases yet to be disposed of. One is
that of a brother of the mayor and
son, each of whom is charged with
larceny. They are alleged to have
carried away and disposed of city
property.

tomatically succeeds Mayor McLeish

CleVeland.-The splendid new con-
crete dock extending out into Lake
Erie 700 feet and which is part of
Cleveland's group plan for the beau
tifying of her lake front was duly ded-
icateG with the departure of the big
lake boats Sunday evening. Cleveland
has been striving for years to settle
her lake front problem and the open
ing of this mammoth new pier is one
big step in this direction and will
prove a stimulus to other cities on
the Great Lakes to provide similar ac-
commodations for the travelling public.
These mammoth 5 tnassenger and
freight terminals, which are the
finest and most complete on the
Great Lakes, cover an area of over
five acres and cost half million dol
lars, were built jointly by the Cleve-
land & Buffalo Transit Co. and the
