THE CIRCUS IS COMING.
Mammoth Wild Animal Show Will Be
 Here Next Wednesday.

Tuesday Miss Emma c. Miller, general press representative for the Al. G. Barnes Big Four Ring Wild Animal Circus, was hustling in Nogales, and paid the newspaper offices a visit. Miss Miller has been with the big circos a number of years.
 She was more enthusiastic than ever over the big circus billed to appear in Nogales on Wednesday, October 24th, after noon and evening. Miss Miller said:
 "The circus, like the baseball game, is an American institu tion, and is dear to the heart of every American, be they boy, girl, man or woman, and as an American recreation receives the hearty response of every true American. The Barnes Circus is an original and genuine wild animal circus, two trains of double length cars are required to transport this mammoth edu- cational institution, over 100 wild and domestic annals and 150 of the 500 people the Barnes Circus carries, makes up program of sixty five feature acts that all who have ever seen it and every one comedies, is the most sensa- tional tented organization in the world, the greatest program ever presented under canvas.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Mar. IA
A revision of freight rates on bar

tum. driel fruits, and wine from the
Pacific coast to the Atlantic sea
board by rail and water via Gal.
weston, also is proposed.
Although the railroads are not
directly invited to file new tariffs
in line with the commissions find
ings, the door is left open for them
to do so, and specific suggestions
as to the maximum rates which
should be proposed are contained in
an outline of dlfferentials between
Atlantic seaports and inland east
ern cities.
To establish an equitable scale
of readjusted rates, 1t is suggested
to the carriers that the territory
west of the Missouri river be div
ided into four zones of 500. $50,
1900 and 1900 miles and that scale
of rates be made gradually increas-
ing, according to distance. The eff
feet would be so far reaching that
officials consider that the case easily
takes rank with the five cases de-
cided five years ago at the time
characterized as the most important
to come before the commission for
decision.
In reaching the tentative findings,
the commission reviewed in elabor.
ate detail the history of water COM
petition via the Panama Canal.
Our concern is with the follow
ing issues: Are the lower rates

from ST. Louis, SAT-; from Kan
sas City, $5.87, We are asked to
conclude that these train-mile earn
ings are reasonable"
while no direct decision on these
points is stated, the commissions
findings assert: The rate on many
of these commodities to the coast
cities in the past have been influ-
enced by the rates afforded by the
water lines. These water rates
have been variable. Under these
circumstances. some of the rail
to the coast points are in the nature
of things subject to variation. The
essential justification for lower rates
to a more distant point than to an
intermediate point is the existence
of competitive rates at the more
distant point. which rates the car
rier is powerless to affect and fail.
ure to meet which would prevent
the rail carriers from participation
in the traffic to the more distant
point
"The necessity as to some of these
rates has existed in the past and
may again exist. While there is good
reason for a certain variation in the
rates to the coast points, there is no
necessity or justification for such
variation in the rates to points so
far inland that they are not affect
ed by combination to the coast.
The rates to the greater part
of this intermediate territory should
not now be made to depend upon
or vary with the coast rates"

The first paragraph directs that
no man in railroad service involved
in the strike will perform any ser

train has left the terminal he will
complete the trip and deliver the
engines and train at end of run or

law, after which he will perform no
further service until the close Of

der present conditions? Are they
in all conditions necessitated under
normal conditions, or such condi
tions as existed for the first year
after the opening of the Panama
Canal? Are they less than normal
or fairly reasonable? Are the rates
to intermediate points unduly dis
criminatory?"
In meeting the questions thus rails
ed. the statement cites a list of 46
articles submitted on behalf of in
terests in Nevada.
"If all average trainload we're
made up of these 46 commodities
and hauled to Reno under present
