WICK IS AFTER WHITE
 PASS AND GCGGENHEIMS

WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. 19.-- Former Delegate James Wickersham of Alaska has filed a petition asking for rehearing of the Alaska Freight Rate cases by the Interstate Con- merce Commission. In the former hearing Wickersham urged that all transportation companies in Alaska were controlled by the Guggenheims and that they showed discrimination in freight rates. The commission held against the contention.
 Wickersham now alleges that the rates on the White Pass and on the Copper River and Northwestern Rail- way are so high that they are cur tailing the output of copper, and he is asking that the rates be reduced by the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion.

DAYS D0BlGSlf, ]. TIE DISTRICT COURT

Saturday afternoon Judge F. N. Brown handed down his decision in the Costello and Boilinger vs. Purdy case in favor of the plaintiRs. This Is one Vfthe Shushanns binins cases, and involved the title to . mining claim in the Shushanna district lo- cated by power of attorney by one Gates and Purdy. The plaintiffs, al- leging that the claim was not legal ly located because of the fact that the power of attorney under which the claim was located was not recorded until after the location. restaked the claim. At the time the several Shu- shanna cases were tried at CordovA in March, 1914, it was stipulated by counsel, to save time, that judgment in this case should be taken by ei- ther side in accordance with the de- cision in the Sutherland vs. Purdy case. in which tho action was brought on similar grounds, and which was appealed to the Appellate Court. The decision of that court was that the location by Gates was not valid be- cause the claim was located before the power of attorney had been re- corded. In accordance with this deci- sion and the stipulation, Messrs. Lyons & Ritchie and Donohoe & Di- mond, attorneys for the plaintiffs, moved the Court for decision in ac- cordance with the stipulation, and after, hearing the argument of coun- sel for the plaintiffs and of Attorney I'M. D. Leehey, for the defendant, the Court gave his decision in favor of the plaintiffs.
 The case of Mary Diffley vs. Mark Diffley, was also taken up. The tes- timony of the plaintiff and of several witnesses. taken before referee, was read. and a decree of divorce was granted the plaintiff. The plaintiff in this action Is a resident of Mccarthy There being no business before the Court this morning, an adjournment was taken until 10 o'clock tomor. row morning.

PHILADELPHIA, January 1.-The
police are working on many clues in
an effort to solve the mystery sur
rounding the murder of Miss Maizie
Colbert. also known as Mrs. Grace Rob-
erts. whose terribly bruised body was
found in an uptown apartment house
late Saturday night. No arrest has
been made yet, but man and a wom-
an are being watched and arrests are
expected shortly The woman had
many admirers, who were received in
her apartment, and much evidence in
the shape of letters, photographs and
clothing is being examined by the po-
lice.
According to the detectives, a man
and a woman are under surveillance,
the man as the actual murderer. the
woman as his best friend" who. it is
believed, knows something about the
crime.
IF things turn out according to our
plans we will have the slayer before
the day is over" said detective. 1T
is only a question of time now, but we
are certain we are on the right track
and there will be interesting develop
mentS."
