CITY MAY FILE
POWER INJUNCTION
steps to Settle Point of Legality in
Changing Electricity Rates Are
Probable

To settle from a standpoint of le-
gality the question of whether or not
the public service commission of the
state has power to ratify an increase
in rates by the Washington Water
Power company which is operating
under a franchise and price schedule
accepted prior, to the inception of the
state commission, the city of Pullman
may file an injunction against the.
power company in an effort to re-
strain the Washington Water, Power
company from making effective its
proposed new schedule, the greater
part of which has already been rati-
fled by tho commission. At the time
of the public hearing held in Pull
man the question at issue was quite
forcefully presented to the members
of the commission, who, at that time,
took the stand that such action on
tho part of the commission would be
legal. The big bone of contention
in the proposed new tariff of the
Washington Water Power company,
and the point upon which the great
est objection was registered was the
proposed increase, by over 800 per
cert, of the rates for municipal pump
ing power. The city has as yet re-
ceived no official notification of find
ings from the public service commits
sion, although they were promised
before December IS, but unofficial
reports are to the effect that this
increase is refused in the findings
The present franchise and schedule
of rates is effective for six years
more, and the rate for municipal
power named in the franchise was
given by the company, then the
Idaho-W ashington Light & Power
company, in recognition and in re-
turn for the privileges granted by the
city to the company. Persons in
touch with the situation believe that
any change in the schedule during
the term of the franchise would of
necessity be based upon ex-post facto
law, the operation of which is de-
MED by the constitution.
The only word received up to the
present time by the city upon the
findings of the commission was
through condensed newspaper re-
ports. which indicate that the COM
mission denied temporarily the in
crease in municipal rates, not upon
the contention of the city council
that it would be illegal in the face
OF the franchise, but because of its
excessiveness and lack of time to
reach an amicable settlement be-
tween the parties concerned. I'm
less the official findings show that
cognizance has been taken of the
city's claim of illegality, it is not inn
probable that action will be taken on
other changes ratified by the seom-
mission to settle the point at once,
thus precluding the possibility of an
other attempt on the part of the COM
pany to raise the rates during the
next six years.

GREAT W.S.C. PITCHER
CALLED BY DEATH
Leo WCurley'D Thompson Succumbs
to Influenza at Dayton-Was
Diamond Sensation in His
College Days

Leo Thompson, better known dur
ing his college days in Pullman as
"Curley,' died at Dayton last week
from pneumonia. following influ-
enza. The news of Thompson's death
was received in Pullman with keen
regret by old-time w. S. c. men, who
remember ham as the athletic idol
and alls"roun6 good fellow some Is
years ago, when he set the entire
Northeast aflame with his remark
able work as pitcher on the w. A. G..
baseball team. In his time "Curley
was without peer on the mound in
the ranks of the Northwest colleges.
and in 1901 and 1902 he sent his OPP
posing batsmen to the bench with a
regularity that startled the athletic
sphere in which he appeared, and
gave the college its first great adyer-
Using through an athletic medium.
He was the phenom of the college
game and could throw almost as we'll
with one hand as with the other. This
unusual ability gave him tremen-
dous advantage in throwing to the
bases, and when, as rarely hap
pened, an opponent reached first
base, he either froze to the cushion
or fell a victim to "Curley's" ambi-
dextrous cunning.
Old-time sport fans still relate
Thompson's diamond exploits, and
point to many games in which Z or
Is of the opponents fell prey to Cur
leys" wide ones through the strike
out route. During his third year in
college Thompson's pitching arm
gave way to the constant strain and
he was forced to give up pitching
and played second base throughout
the remainder OF the season. The
army never fully regained its cum
ming and this fact alone kept Thomp-
son from winning fame il the best
company to be found.
He left college before he had com
pleted his course In agriculture to
help his father on the Dayton farm,
and upon his fathers tragic death
in runaway accident some eight
years ago, he assumed full control Of
the family farm and developed into
one of the best agriculturists in Co
lumbia county.
He is survived by a widow and two
children, a boy and girl.
The writer was classmate and
friend OF Thompson during the lat
ter's college career and will treasure
always the memory of man who, in
his athletic supremacy, gloried in
victory for his college and in the sat
isfaction it brought to his friends,
but held steadfasctly to the spirit of
honesty and fair play, on the dia-
mond as in the ordinary walks OF
life.

Old Herald Block, Constructed in
1889, Totally Destroyed Monday
Was Oldest Structure in
Business Section

Only ashes and charred walls to-
day mark the spot where for many
years stood the structure pointed to
by old-timers as Pullman's oldest
business block. The building was
the old Herald block, constructed 30
years ago, which, at the time of it's
destruction, was owned jointly by
Ohio West and R. f. Bigelow and
occupied by these gentlemen as sep
arate furniture and secondhand
stores. The fire which caused the
obliteration of the historic structure
occurred Monday morning, and the
building burned almost like finder,
streams of water from three big
fire hoses failing 10 quiet the fury
of the flames. The building itself is
Il total loss, while the stock of goods
in the west half, occupied by Mr..
BigeloW, was reduced almost to moth
ingness. There will be considerable
salvage from the West goods, al
though much of the stock was de-
stroyed and the balance was damaged
by fire and water.
The total loss is estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000, while
insurance policies carried by the two
owners in scattered companies will
probably aggregate $500, leaving
a net loss of something over $4,000.
Mr.. Bigelow carried $1,000 insur-
ance on his part of the building
$4,000 on his stock and $500 on his
household goods. Mr.. Vests part OF
| the building was insured for $500
and his stock for $1,000.
The fire was caused by an over
heated stove in the half occupied b.
Mr.. Bigelow, and within few min
utes the entire structure was a seeth-
ing mass of flames. Soon after the
fire started the front of the west half
of the building was blown out, prob
ably by the explosion of gas from the
fire and smoke, and score of on
lockers narrowly escaped being bur
led under the wreckage.
Mrs. Bigelow was upstairs in the
building when it caught fire, but had
no time to save her personal effects,
Che bod oavara1 vaIroblo diamond
which, after getting out of the build
ing, she remembered having left in a
purse in a desk drawer. After the
front of the building had fallen out
George Ewing mounted a ladder and
reached the desk, which he dropped
to the sidewalk below. The desk
broke open and the contents were
scattered, but Mr. Bigelow recovered
the purose in which he believed the
diamonds would be found. They
/ were not there, however, and he gave
them up as lost Several hours later
he found a smaller purse under a
board, where it had lain unmolested
since the desk was recovered, and in
side were the gems, as good as new.
The building, the first business
block erected in the city east OF
Alder street, was constructed in the
summer of 1889 by Thos. Neill, still
a resident of Pullman, and M. S.
Phillips. The building was divided
