INDIAN BOY SAW FRISCO
But Method of Financing Trip Got Him Attention from Federal Court; Some Cases up Before Judge William H. Sawtelle

Amos De Lowe, seventeen year old Pima Indian, enjoyed life while it lasted. Amos extracted $3S5 in Ameri- can gold from the trunk of his uncle, Lloyd Evans, an Indian of the Gila river reservation, bought a sporty set of personal effects, collected his girl from the Indian school here, and went to California. Amos and his girl saw both expositions, and with $32.55 left of the spolis were at Riverside, Cal, when federal officers overlook them.
 In federal court yesterday, De Lowe, who had reached the city in the com pany of Deputy L. $. Marshal Thomp- son. of Los Angeles, plead guilty to the theft, and his case was taken under advisement by Judge w. H. SaWtelle.
 The girl was brought back by a member of the Indian school staff.
 From the souvenirs De Lowe col lected, he certainly enjoyed the expo sition. In fact, he said he did. Mum berless photographs were taken of the pair. the boy in chaps, and with six shooters. in khakis. driving the prop erty'' automobile, and hush! in a bar room scene, arms full of bottles, and a sign, "Whiskey Two Bits a Throw over his head.
 Get Busy Early
 Grand jury arrangements were com pleted early yesterday, and with Den his Burke in the chair, the inquisi- tors began on a batch of true bills. Five were reported as indictments at four o'clock.
 Besides De Lowe. those arraigned were Dave Lewis and Charles EnOs. Pima boys accused of swiping a sad dle and bridle on the Salt River In dian reserve. Both being mere boys, Judge Sawtelle took no immediate ac- tion in their case, preferring to make further inquiries into the circum- canoes surrounding the case. His honor is usually very careful about thrust ing youngsters, up for their first of fense. into the company of criminals.
 A negro named Alexander, who had spent four months in jail, accused of possessing opium, was quiZzed by his honor. No indictment was returned in his case, the grand jury believing his long wait in jail and the fact he seemed to have gotten over the crav- ing for drugs warranted emitting him from the list He claimed the only drug he used was morphine given him by Dr. Redewill. following an opera tion. He was released on his promise to stay out of trouble. Asked if he w, uld refrain from using drugs if turned loose. he exclaimed, "Sure.'

WESTERN RAILROAD
RATE HEARING ON
Attorney Wright Says it Will Be
Proved Passenger Earnings
Are Steadily Decreasing.
sTATIsTICIAN FIRST WITNESS

CHICAGO, July 6.-The western
passenger rate hearing, in which
forty-six western railroads hope to
prove that present rates, said to be
unremunerative, should be advanced,
began here today before Examiner
Thurtell of the Interstate Commerce
commission.
G. c. Wright made the opening
statement for the railroads. He said
in part:
''The carriers expect to show that the
net operating income of the roads in
volved during the last seven years has
been materially less than 1t wss for the
seven years immediately prior to that
period. 1t will be shown that this is true
notwithstanding the fact that there has
been an increase in the volume of busi-
ness and an increase in the property in
vestment. This, of course. results in a
higher operating ratio and naturally a
lesser rate of return than has been main
tanned heretofore.
Companions also viii be given show
ing present conditions as against those of
pense also will be made. 1t will be
shown that it is largely due to increases
in the cost of labor and to taxes and
that the economies which have been eff
fected by the carrier and the increased
volume of business have not been suf-
ficient to meet the increased cost of
operation"
Mr.. Wright stated that the present rate
40
ger service does not amount to per
cent.
''It is believed" Mr.. Wright continued.
that it is impracticable to maintain state
and interstate rates upon any substan-
TALLY different basis"
wettIinE is First witness.
L. F. Wettling, statistician for the car
riers, took the stand and presented
voluminous exhibit of comparative fig
ures from 1901 to 1914.
''The average ratio of return on, cost
of road and equipment in the first seven
years of this period was 5.4S per cent"
said the witness. "In the second seven
years It dropped to 4.74. while the re-
turns for 1914 were only 4A per cent,
thus showing a general tendency OF rail-
road profits to decline"
Mr.. wettling testified that expendi-
lures for additions and betterment for
the roads in 1a07-14 reached $3.50, SIS, 4O6, of
which $3.50, ,4S5. $50 was for equipment.
Between 1901 and 1907" he continued,
''unproductive expenditures for per
manent Improvements. such as passenger
stations, viaducts. grade crossings, track
elevation and the like. were $1s,e62, Az
In 1sO7-l4 this sum jumped to $79,572.092
