OF Much Interest Here.

held in Pine Bluff over the decision
of the interstate commerce commits
sion in the Shreveport case, above
shown, because of the fact that Pine
Bluff and other Arkansas centers are
situated much as the Texas shipping
centers have been, with Memphis serv-
ing as the shreveport" of this local
condition.
There are pending now before the
interstate commerce commission a
number of cases, in which Memphis is
complaining that rates in Arkansas
are prejudicial to and discriminatory
against Memphis, Two or three such
cases have already been decided in
favor of Memphis by the commission,
and because Of the several rulings al
ready made by the commission, and
particularly the ruling in the Shreve-
port case, it is felt that the commits
sion will grant the prayer of the Mem
phis petitioners, for readjustment
of the rates.
at is most serious situation"
said Commissioner w. M. Taylor of
the Pine Bluff traffic bureau, "and
it is plainly evident that it is going
to lead to complete and general re-
vision of the system of establishing
rates, everywhere"
Mr.. Taylor indicated that it was his
opinion the entire matter will even
tually be threshed out in the courts,
and that finally rates will be estab-
lished which will be fair and equitable
to all the shippers and roads and to
each of the many communities in
volved, but that this revision will be
had only after veritable upheaval
in all lines of business, because of the
disruption of old methods and the re-
sulting confusion.

STATE RAILROAD
BODIES CANNOT
MAKE RATE Wall
Shreveport Wins Fight for
Freight Rates Putting 1t
on Par with Texas Cities.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Class rates
and commodity rates between Shreve-
port, La, and points in Eastern Texas
were today pronounced by the inter
state commerce commission unreason-
able and prejudicial to Shreveport,
and ordered readjusted. The decision
is the elimination Of the celebrated
Shreveport rate case.
The commission also ruled that the
railroads must not apply to transport
tation within Texas rules of minimum
carload weights different from or low
er than those applicable to freight be-
tween Shreveport and Texas points
where they were prejudicial to
Shreveport.
Readjustments and rates which will
remove the discrimination of which
the Louisiana railroad commission
complained, were ordered to become
effective not later than November 1.
Reasonable maXimums were pre-
scribed for all class rates, and new
rates were prescribed for many COM
modities. Principal among them are
cattle, stone, machinery, fruits and
vegetables, cottonseed and products,
oil, print paper and some metals.
The case which practically affected
the principal structure of rates in the
so-called Shreveport territory has
long been in litigation, and once has
been before the supreme court. The
commission made an order which was
expected to remove determinations,
but the railroads filed new rates which
the commission characterized as
"alleged compliance" with it's order
and Immediately complaints were
made with investigation, eliminating
in today's decision.
The case conferred around whether
the rates between Texas cities dis
eliminated against Shreveport, which
completes with them for business in
Texas.

ARTIFICIAL EYES OF RUBBER
Experiments Recently Made in France
Show That They Are Superior
to Glass Ones.

Glass eyes are always more or less
uncomfortable, and frequently insight
ly, and 1t is interesting, therefore,
when the deformities of war are so
serious Il subject of consideration to
learn that two French workers, MM
Lemaitre and Teuillieres, have evolved
an etirely new method of replacing
lost eye. They aimed at producing
substance of sufficient elasticity and
softness to respond to the changes in
the eye-socket, and mt the same time Of
sufficient hardness to present smooth,
natural effect between the eyelids.
Experiment led them to take careful
casts of the socket in plaster and to
make from these casts the body of an
artificial eye which should exactly fit
the socket. They solved the difficulty
of consistence by making the front of
the new eye of hard rubber, vulcanized
ind enameled to represent the natural
appearance, and the back of the eye AZ
soft rubber, followed out in the form
of II ball and filed with air
These hollow eyes have been found
to answer the purpose very well. They
are soft and elastic; they respond in
a remarkable manner to the ocular
movements; they do not irritate the
socket, and they have the great addl-
tional advantage of being unbreakable-

MANS WAR ON WILD THINGS
Many Species of Birds That Used &c
Be Plentiful Are in Danger of
DETERMINATION.

One of the pretticst sights in the res.
ervation was the view of six or eight
fiocks of swans high above the marsh,
seemingly playing leapfrog under d.
rectiOn of a leader. One of the swans
could be heard giving call, then 9TH
ers would take short flights and make
sOmersaults in the air. The wild swan,
whether floating on the water, or play
ing in the air, with the sun shining
on its white feathers, is the most grace
full of birds.
Owing to the draining of the marshes
and the unrestricted spring shooting
for many years, wild fowl are becOm-
ing scarce in Indiana. The GAN rescr-
walton has vanished as refuge and
only a few flOcks of geese and ducks
may now be seen where once the wild
fowl numbered millions. The lordly
sandhill crane, with legs three to fou
feet long, that strobe about the water
covered marsh, always just keeping out
of range Of the hunter, Is now merely
memory or curiosity, though e
years ago the cranes were numerous

Measuring Natural Gas.

Errors in the measurement of nat
ural gases from the application OF
Boyle's law have been found by the
United States bureau of mines to
reach as high as 10 per cent. The
volume of n gas Is stated by this old
law Of physics to vary inversely as
the pressure applied to it, but this
proves to hold good only for pressures
near that of the atmosphere. Billions
of cubic feet of natural gas yearly are
measured Mt pressures up to 300
pounds or more per square inch. The
tests show that at 100 pounds the err
ror often rises to per cent; at 200
pounds, 9 per cent; Mt 1915 pounds, IL
per cent, and Mt $40 pounds. 10 per
