Commerce Commission
 Orders Two States To
 Increase Rail Rates
fRepubIlcan A. p. Leased WlreJ

WASHINGTON, Dec %. State railway commissions of Arkansas and Minnesota were ordered today by the interstate commerce commission to in- crease state passenger rates and excess baggage charges to the level now pre- yaIling in interstate commerce. The commission held that the present charges in the two states amounted to discrimination against interstate traffic. Both Arkansas and Minnesota are numbered among the IT states which refused to grant a 20 per cent increase in passenger fares last Au- gust to conform with the increase in interstate traffic and the decisions to- day mark the first action to be taken by the commission since hearings were given seven states here recently. The commission previously ruled against the state commissions of New York and Wisconsin, and those cases are now being fought in the courts.
 The state commissions of Arkansas $ and Minnesota granted an increase in freight rates. but due to existing state laws asserted they were powerless to raise rates on passenger fares and on excess baggage.
 In Minnesota the state rate for pas senger fares was set at cents per mile by the legislature, but the carriers ob- tained an injunction at the end of the federal control period, which prevented the state commission putting pre- war rates into effect. In Arkansas the maximum rate also was cents per mile.
 The interstate commerce commission quoted the transportation act as it's authority to raise rates in opposition to sate laws made by legislatures
 Changes in the Arkansas rates must be made by February 15 and in Min nesota by February l, the interstate commerce commission ruled.
 In the Arkansas case Commissioner Eastman dissented, but the Minnesota decision was unanimous.

The men weighed iu under 11S pounds as called for in the articles of agreement at o'clock this afternoon. but the official weights an- nounced by the state boxing commis- sion when the men entered the ring tonight were 116 pounds for each. Lynch looked the much more drawn of the two men when the bout began. while Herman was in the better condi- ton so far as looks went.
 Herman was an odds-on favorite oa what betting was indulged in, 3 to Z being freely offered that he would re tain his championship.
 Both boys were nervous at the out set Lynch's advantages of height and reach soon were apparent and ex- cessive caution on the part of Herman cost him any chance he might have had to hold his title.
 In four of the rounds Herman had the better Of the argument but in only one of these had he any decided ad- vantage of Lynch. In this round he had Lynch in difficulty but that was all Herman's defense at times was puzzling to the challenger but when ever he landed one of his long lefts or right hooks or swings, a grin Of satis- faction spread over Lynchs counte- nance while Herman's face denoted that he was afraid of his opponents $ wallops.
