J. $. JUDGE TR|EBER GRANTS INJUNCTION
DECLARES R. R. COMMISSION RE. BATE ORDER INOPERATlVE IN
 RICE SHIPMENTS.
WILL NOT APPEAL CASE
Commissioner Mcknight Says There Are Many Similar Cases and Or
 ders to Cover Will Be Issued.
Little Rock

Judge Jacob Trieber in the United States District Court granted an in junction against the enforcement of an order issued by the Arkansas Rail- road Commission requiring the Frisco railroad to pay a rebate on ship ment of rice from New Orleans to Fayetteville The rice was shipped to Helena over the Yazoo and Mississip- pi Valley railroad, where the con signee, the Ozark Grocery Company, had it reshipped over the Iron Mour.- tain and Frisco railroads, after pay ing the freight to Helena. At Fayette- vile the Frisco refused to release the shipment until the company paid the interstate rate. The company ap- pealed to the commission and a month ago an order was issued requiring the Frisco to rebate the difference De- tween the intrastate and the interstate rate beween Helena and Fayetteville. Members of the commission said the case will not be appealed.
 The rate on rice from New Or leans to Helena, 309 miles, is 10 cents per 100," Commissioner W. F. Me Knight said "The rate charged in this case between Helena and Fayette- vile, 325 miles, was 28 cents. There have been a number of similar cases and the commission intended to Is sue orders to cover them. The isro- cery company involved in this case is not inclined to pay for an appeal and the commission has no funds for that purpose The consequence is this rate will be charged in the future

RANGER ON HOOD
GIVES FIRE WARNING

Sighting the smoke from his eyrie
lookout on the summit Of Mount Hood.
Fire Warden Elijah Colmsn last Tues
day probably prevented serious for
est FIRE in southwest Hood River
county. The fire warden established
what he considered the approximate
location of the fire from his maps, and
Immediately called the mill of the
Stanley Smith Lumber Co.
When A. A. Lausmann, In charge of
the mill which is not being operated
this summer, took down his receiver
the following conversation ensued:
"Helloi"
"Stsnley-Smith Lumber Coz"
Eyes.
This is a forest ranger on Mount
Hood. As near as | can figure you
have fire in section 2S."
Lausmann knew of the Hood lookout
station, and he did not await further
details. Calling a crew of men be bur
ried over the brow of point just
south of the mill property. and found
the fire not mile and half away,
Blackberry pickers had probably
started the flames, which were licking
up the logging flume of the company
and beginning to spread in the slash
ings of the logged off land. In another
hour a bad fire would undoubtedly have
been raging. Before the fire could be
extinguished about 800 feet of the big
flume had been ruined.
