HOW QUESTION AROSE

The case grew out of an inquiry in- stituted by the commission last year in response to a Senate resolution in- troduced by Senator Lea of Tennessee into the Louisville and Nashville's all legged political activity, it's relations with other carriers and its efforts to affect public opinion relative to rate reductions The railroad officials re- fused to reply to certain questions, claiming the commissions powers were statutory and did not extend to such investigations. The lower court, at the commissions request ordered them to answer, whereupon they ap- pealed.

Case Is Laid Before the |. C. Commission--Comptroller Williams Predicts the
 Granting of Petition

Washington, November 5.-Eastern rail roads laid before the interstate commerce commission their case for substantial in- creases in freight rates to meet in- creased expenses under war conditions. The presidents of seven roads and coun- sei for many more, summoned by the commission to make statements in the reopened 15 per cent advanced rate case, joined in submitting that in spite of in- creased gross earnings railroad net reve- nues have decreased to such an extent that even granting of the full 15 per cent increase would not provide for necessary improvements and fair return on in- vested capital.
 SHIPPERS NOT FIGHTING
 Clifford Thorne, representing oil compa- nies, grain dealers and live stock inter ests, told the commission that while his clients opposed any increases they were entirely willing to abide by the result of the investigation. Ross D. Rynder of Chicago spokesman for the packers, said the packers would not object to per- centage increase on all traffic, including their own, if the commission found it necessary, and would postpone until after the war emergency passed any request for action on complaints. Other shippers took virtually the same position, although association wanted their rights to protest

SITUATION PUZZLING

The unique political situation in which the metropolis finds itself on the eve of it's first war time election in many years was frankly puzzling tonight even to veteran campaigners. Counting the soldier votes abroad and at many camps and cantonments in America it is pre- dicted that approximately 100000 ballots will be cast. 1t was conceded that those of the men under arms, estimated at 60,00o, might swing the election.
 Three of the candidates devoted Q pe- riod of campaigning at Camp Upton, where many of New York's citizens are training for service abroad. Hillquit was barred from speaking there, the military authorities holding that utter ances "in opposition to the War, should not be permitted to be heard by the sol diers. Socialist leaders flere tonight said that contribut to the Hillquit cam paign had come from every state in the union.
 Prediction predictions of victory were made at the headquarters of all four can- didates tonight, but it was generally conceded that these statements were is- sued for what effect they might have on the voters and because such predictions are clItOrnary

BITTER CAMPAIGN

discrimination and accusations of . character perhaps never before heard in a mayolaiIy campaign ne ave lea the present fight. Outstanding among these was Mayor Mitchefs charge that Hylan, a county court judge in Brook lyn, has the support of pro- German ele- ments and influences. The mayor has produced letterheads and other docu ments to support his claims that Hylan before the United States entered the war was identified with the Friends of Peace which condoned the sinking of the Lusi- tania.
 The mayor declaring his fight was against Hearst, Hylan and Hohenzol- lern,'' linked Hylan with Jeremiah J. OLeary, Supreme Court Justice Daniel + Cohalan and others whose names the gov ernment made public in various disclos- ures involving German propaganda in this country. To all these charges Judge Hylan has made denial and vigorously proclaimed his Americanism.
 The mayor also attacked Hylan's per sonal, legal and business record, using in this connection Hyfan's association with Alfred R. Gosin in the promotion of an automobile camp Goslin was subse- quently convicted of many frauds. Fly Ian, in a counter attack, brought to the fore the indictment of four of "Mitcher 8 friends" in a real estate deal with the city.
 Hillquit, as tho socialists candidate, has been repudiated by Charles Edward Russell, William English Waliing, John Spargo and other socialist leaders. who have thrown their support to Mitchell. as have Theodore Roosevelt, Charles F.. Hughes, Alton B. Parker, Samuel Com pers and other men nationally known.
 The mayor, a democrat, was elected oI fusion ticket four years ago.
