signs with taunts directed at the
clergyman.
The archbishop stepped from his
automobile and advanced slowly to
the strains OF a band which set the
crowd wild with enthusiasm. After the
preate had moved up the gang plank,
the throng surged forward after him
ond lines ot guards. But the third
held, although it seemed at one time
as if ii would be necessary to pull
| up the plank.
The archbishop visibly was affect
ed by the demonstration. Pale from
emotion, he advanced to the rail
and replied time and time again
TO the cheers which greeted him.
A scene almost approaching a riot
had followed the booing of the arch
bishop by an English passenger on
the ship. The longshoremen who
scaled the ships sides and attacked

through the crowd and reached the
Englishman.
Shortly after his arrival. the arch
bishop issued a statement in which
he said that he had been represent
ed in certain quarters as a promoter
of strife" He declared that he really
was working for peace in Ireland, in
side and outside the British EN-
pire. He said the peace he hopel
is "a peace not resting on force, but
on justice and the free will Of the
people concerned"
A remarkable demonstration pre-.
ceded the departure of the archbish-
op, who stood on the after deck OF
the Ng Baltic, holding two red roses
in his hands while he invoked repeat
edly a silent benediction upon hun,
dreds Of cheering wellwishers VIII
waved scores of Irish flags.
Lying along the other side of the
pier was the steamship Olympic, on
which the ships company, who staged
a counter demonstration by waving
| English flags, and cheering for Great
Britain with an occasional hostile
shout directed against Ireland. The
Englishmen, however, were separated
by several feet of water, and this
probably was the only thing that pre-.
vented a clash.
Mr.. de Valera remained with the
Australian dignitary until the last
moment, and then hurried from the
steamship just before the gang plank
was lifted As the Baltic moved out
into the stream the cheering hundreds
gave de Valera a demonstration. He
was lifted to the shoulders Of n
couple Of husky enthusiasts and
cheered for several minutes on the
pier.
Dissension among the crew of the
Baltic, occasioned by the name of
Archbishop Mannix among the list
of passengerj, early today gave rise
to uncertainty as to whether the ship
would sail as scheduled.
Among the crew are many who
are either Irish or of Irish descent,
who claimed that Archbishop Mannix
should have made the voyage as an
honored guest of the Baltic. Their,
was said to be, however, an equal
number who expressed the opinion
that he should not be allowed to sal,

are to be paid for out OF this fund
and out Of moneys advanced by the
commission and borrowed by the car
riers.
The commission, in the question of
aggregate values of the roads, AS
well as their financial conditions,
said.
AN passenger fare and charges
may be increased 20 per cent. The
term passenger fares may be con
sdered to include standard local and
interline fares exclusion, conven-
ton and other fares, for special o.
casions; communication and other mutt
pie forms of tickets; extra fares on
limited trains; club ear charges"
The conclusion of the commission
as TO general freight increases were
stated as follows:
I'VE are of the opinion and find
that the percentage increases in the
charges for freight service includ
ing switching and special services
together with the other increases here
inbefore approved, would under pres
ent conditions result in rates not
unreasonable in the aggregate under
section one of the transportation act
and would enable the carriers in the
respective groups, under honest, eff
| ficient and economical management
reasonable expenditures for mainten
/ of OF Iafr nd
ments to earn an aggregate annual
railway operating income equal, as
nearly as may be, to a return oi
) 12 per cent upon the aggregate
value for the purposes Of this proceed
ing, of the railway property of sucf
carriers held for and used in th'
service of transportation and onehal
| of one pc rcent in addition"
The decision of the commission
which was unanimous, summed up a.
| follows
Most of the factors with which
we were dealing are constantly chang
| ing. 1t is impossible to forecast witt
any degree of certainty what the
volume of traffic will be. The gener
| al price level is changing from month
to month, and from day to day. 1t is
| impracticabe at this time to adjust
all rates on individual commodities
The rates to be established on the
| basis hereinbefore approved must
necessarily be subject to such read
| justments as the facts may warrant
1t is conceded by the carriers that
readjustments will be necessary. II
is expected that shipper will take
these matters up in the first in
stance with the carriers, and the lat
ter will be expected to deal promptly
and effectively Herewith to the END
that necessary readjustments may be
made in as many instances as pracu
cable without appeal to us"
Government operation of the rail
roads was brought into the rate cas-,
by Commissioner Eastman, who in al
opinion in which Commissioner Wool
ley concurred disapproved the meth
cd used by the commission in arriv
ing at its conclusions. Commissioner
McCord criticised Eastmans position
declaring that he injected into thi.
case large political questions of gov
ernmental policy which are nowher,
in issue here"
Commissioner Eastman expressed re
gret that federal control of the road
was not permitted TO continue at leas
until after the REIMBURSEMENT period
1T was my hope" he said, "tha
federal control might be continued be

ABOUT DIGESTION

Digestion begins in the mouth. The
food should be thoroughly masticated
and insalivated before it is swallowed.
When this is habitually neglected
stomach trouble is almost sure to fol-
low. If you have indigestion eat no
beef or veal and sparingly of other
meats, masticate your food thorough
ly and you may recover without taking
any medicine. If your bowels are con-
stipated take Chamberlain's Tablets.
They not only cause a gentle move
ment Of the bowels but aid digestion
and strengthen the stomach.
