Millions Sunk With Treasure Ships May
 Soon be Recovered

London, Aug. 18.-To recover more than $3,UO0,OuO in gold, part ot the fortune of the late Dom Paul Krue- ger, once president of the 1ransvaal, which is believed to be cemented m the hold of tn bark Dorothea, sunk on Tenedos Reef off the coast of Zu- luland, is one of the projects which may be revived as a result of lmpro- vement in the science of salvagmg sunken ships.
 The Dorothea is named among the 1 wrecks of eight treasure ships of1 the African coast which are regarded by che leading expert as most likely for salvage. Captain A. r. Gardiner has located I 38 hulls of sunken vessels off the coast of South Africa and believes i that one quarter of them may be re- deemed. Some of~them are more than 100 years old. Eight of the ships selected as susceptible of salvage, with their location and value of con l tents are given as follows:
 The Grosvenor on the Pendel and Coast, $S,750,000.
 Ariston, Marcus Bay, $4,0Oo 900 Birkenhead, Birkenhead Reef, S3,9Oo,- 900: Atlas east coast s3,5Oo,oO0; Dor othea, Tenedos Reef, S3,25o,oooa3 Thunderbolt; Thuiderbolt Reef, S2,- 75O GOO; ;Abercrombie, Black $s0O,ooo; Merestein, Jutton Island, $700,Oo.
 A second list of ships turing trea- i ssure hunters to the African coast ln- cludes seven wrecked in 1902, among the mbeing H. Nj. S., Candos, with
 S2oo,o0 in gold coin, and the troops
 ship Addison with $1o0,ooo. Other carried copper, hold full of ivory or silver ingots. Ten other treasure vessels lost between 1737 and 1885 have been located along the African sands.

PUSHING TIE FIGHT AGAINST
 UNFAIR RATES
Congress May Soon Act on the Pondexter Bill to Abolish Un-

Washington, D. c.

 As everybody knows, the coast cities of the country for years received ab-
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1919-08-19

normally low freight and passenger rates whenever there was competition with water transportation, the rail-
 roads making up their losses on this traffic by extorting money from the interior communities through the me- ,llum of excessive tariffs.
 Three years ago Senator Poindexter began his attacks upon these tariT dis criminations. Supporting his activities in the senate, number of western states took Steps to give him effective aid, and applications were made to the Interstate Commerce Commission for remedial measures. It was long and determined fight before adequate rec ognltjon from the commission was se- cured. Finally, however, after exhaus- tive inquiries, on March 15, 1913, the 1 Interstate Commerce Commission made , a ruling which went part way towards relieving cities in the intermountain states, including those in Montana, Utah, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, l Colorado North and South Dakota. Arizona, Nebraska and Nevada. Under this ruling cities in these states were allowed terminal rates-nO more than coast rates, but they could be charged up to a point approXimating such ter minal rates. Moreover, this schedule Of rates is subject to reversal by the Interstate Commerce Commission at ifs pleasure, thus creating an uncer- tain situation dnimical to all manufac- turing interests.
 | The senator sought, however, to go much further, and permanently rem- edy the situation, which was only par tially relieved. His bill takes away from the Interstate Commerce Com mission all powers to permit discfim- nations against inland cities in favor of coast cities, by enacting into law tie provision that no railroad hence forth shall receive any greater con- pensation for the transportation of passengers or freight for shorter than for longer distance over the same line, or route, in the same dlrec- ton. the shorter being included in the longer distance: or to, charge any greater compensation as a through route than the aggregate of the inter- mediate rates: nor, shall common carrier be authorized to receive as oreat compensation for shorter as for q longer distance.
 But while temporary relief had been granted by the Interstate Commerce Commission in the case of western states, the entire South and many DOT tions of the East were still left at the mercy of the railroads, no concessions being given them. The South, how ever. was not slow in awakening tn the fact that the West had secured al improvement. in railroad tariff rAtc' to the financial benefit. of it's cities As result of vigorous propaganda

LIGHTS

Three flashes of electric lights al 9:SO o'clock yesterday afternoon gave warning that the juice was going off and at 6:O5 o'clock last night the city was plunged into darkness and also the various power motors around the city were forced to shut down. ag; .,
 Water at the intake of the electric power plant pipe line began freezing early yesterday morning and the, clts began going down the long pipe line and began clogging up. At S:S0 o'clock the situation became serious and mel were sent up to the intake to keep ice grom going into the pipe line. The pipe line was finally free of, ice but as a precaution to prevent more ice going through and perhaps freezing the pipe up solid, the water was shut off en- tirely. ,
 It all depends upon the weatNe, when the water will be turned into the pipes again and the electric power again be had.
 Following the warning yesterday afternoon, perhaps every family in Seward laid in five gallon cans of oil and the store deliveries were lept busy until 6 o'clock. Last night flash light batteries were dealt out in large numbers. .< r.. The city water pressure was also low last night owing to water at the in' take freezing. Extra patrolmen were on duty during the night in case ot emergency.
