Little. rate EXPERT for the commission
have returned from st. Paul where
they attended the conference at whicl
the matter Of the ignite coal rates in
this state was discussed by the rail-
road commissioners and representa- :
tIvos of all of the railroads doing 'busi-
ness IN the state.
The railroad companies were repre-
sented ty their attorneys and the vice
presidents of the roads as Well as
traffic managers. The different phas-
es of the law were discussed and, the
railroad companies were asked to pre-
sent their side of the question.
The railroad companies took the
stand that, in view of the decision of
the United States supreme court, the
maximum coal rate law and all of it's
prov isions is wiped out and the rates
in effect before the maximum coal
rate law was passed become effective
once more,
Should these old rates be reinstated,
as the railroads contended that it
should be, it would mean an inerease
of from 30 to 40 per cent on the maxi

PADEREWSkI TO
RAISE RELIEF
FUND FOR POLES

New York, May 14.-Ignace Jan
Paderewski, the pianist who has come
to America to organize the work which
is being carried OH here for the relief
of Polish victims of the war, hopes
to be able shortly to announce the
personnel of national American relief
committee. He has been seeking as
members prominent men and women
throughout the country who will con-
solidate the work of the several Pol
ish relief committees already organ
ized whose means thus far have been
sufficient to relieve but a limited num-
ber Of sufferers.
Mr.. Paderewski issued the following
appeal:
"The present European war is, on
the eastern front, raging exclusively
over Polish soil. 1t is sweeping away
every sign CT civilization, destroying
dwellings,, devastating fields, gardens
and forests, starving and exterminat-
ing human beings and animals alike.
An area equal in size to the states of
New York and Pennsylvania has been
laid waste. Two hundred towns, four
ten hundred churches, seven thousand
five hundred villages have been COM
pletely destroyed. The losses in prop
erty destroyed, and in agricultural, in
dustrial and commercial productions
brought to an absolute standStill,
amount to 2,500,000,000.
"A total of eighteen million inhabi-
tants. including nearly two million
Jews, are continuously enduring the
horrors Of this gigantic struggle. Very
few only could flee to the places which
are still holding their cwn against the
aggressors; the great majority, almost
eleven millions of helpless women and
children, homeless peasants, unem-
ployed workmen, the very essence and
strength of a nation, have been driven
out into the open. Thousands and
thousands are hiding among ruins, in
woods or in hollows, feeding on roots
and bark Of trees.
ITO provide an immediate aid to
this almost incredible number of suf-
ferers. to concentrate the efforts of
all who may be touched by so appal-
ling distress General Polish Relief
committee has been formed on a
neutral soil, in Lausanne. switzerland.
The president OF that committee is

members are all men of high stand

all united by the Que desire TO lessen
the sufferings of our countrynen
without distinction OF race, religion,
or political opinion.
Unfortunately, though we'll organ
ized, having it's agencies in every part
of the country, our committee could
accomplish comparatively little to-
wards the succoring of whole nation.
The funds put into our hands wers
extremely modest. Poland has moth
ing more to give, for she is ruined.
and the interest and sympathy Of
other countries are totally absorbed
by other worthy caUses.
"A few Polish Relief committees
have been organized in this country.
but, however, noble are the hearta

generosity of their supporters, the
means so far collected will relieve but
