JAMESTOWN IS
WINNER HERE
IN GOOD GAME
N. p. Team Defeats Bismarck
Independents, A to 2, at
Local Baseball Park

Local baseball fans saw IL good
game of independent baseball Sun
day afternoon here when the James
town Northern Pacific team defeated
the Bismarck Independents, a to 9.
1t was close game throughout
jamestown won with four hits,
while the locals with nine hits were
unable to score more than twice.
Sorlen, on the mount for Bismarck,
pitched fine ball, allowing but four
hits. He struck out eight James
town battcrs, gave three bases on
balls and handled seven fielding
chances faultlessly. Christensen
was the star hitter for the locals,
making three hits and also stealing
two bases, one Of them being James
towns home plate. Ted Greenfield,
Bison star, thrilled the crowd with
a circus one hand catch of PoSeley's
long fly to left field.

proposed schedule and disseminating
this proceeding without prejudice"
Railroads operating lines on
which North Dakota Ignite coal is
carried issued the proposed in
creased schedule of rates on Novem-
Der 3, 1923, to take effect on De-
cember 6, 1928. The proposed sche-
dulles were suspended both by the
state commission and the Interstate
Commerce Commission. Hearings
were ordered, being held both in
South Dakota and in North Dakota.
Ignite coal operators, Joined by Of
fetal representatives of the states
of Minnesota, North and South Da-
kota entered protests against the
proposed increases on the ground
that they would destroy the Ignite
industry, and the fight was carried
to Congress, where a resolution was
introduced for an investigation to
determine if the railroads were
forced to publish the proposed in
creases by eastern interests in order
to increase the sale of eastern coal
tti lIIc CApCHSt vi
Operators and public officials, as
we'll as civic bodies, also made a
fight against the rates on the
ground that it is necessary for the
upbuilding of the Northwest and
for safety in time of national fuel
crisis, to have the Ignite mines in
operation.
The state commissions decision, a
victory for the Ignite operators
may be followed by court action by
the carriers.
The railroads contended that the
rates were similar to those held con-
fiscatory by the United States Su.
preme Court in 1911, and that they
were too low as compared to other
coal rates.
The Northwestern Coal Dock OPP
orators Association, operating the
Duluth and Superior dock coal com
panies, Joined the railroads, declar-
ing the low rates Disseminated
against sales Of their coal, while
the Ignite operators charged one OF
the motives of the proposed higher
rates was to favor the sale of east
ern coal through dock companies. In
the last few years the Ignite Goa
industry has made rapid growth
and has extended it's sales into Min
nesota and South Dakota.
Other Rates Low
President Milhollan of the state
commission, writing the decision
said with regard to Ignite Goa
rates elsewhere:
"a number of exhibits and con
siderable testimony were offered il
evidence by the protestants (the OPP
erators) with respect to the Ignite
rates in Texas. Witness Smart il

common knowledge, but it is equally
true that other great changes have
occurred since 1911. The record
shows, for example, that the carriers
have constructed lines tapping lig-
mite fields which were not in opcr-
alton in 1911, and that the produc
ton of Ignite has not only increas-
ed but that the average haul has in
creased substantially. Furthermore,
the rates have been subjected to
several increases and one reduction
of 10 percent since the decision of
the Supreme Court. We are not
ready to concede, therefore, that
because a rate was confiscatory sew
eral years ago, it is confiscatory to-
day, in the absence of a showing
that conditions are substantially
similar. We endorse the statement
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in it's decision in Coke Bros.
& Company VS.. Lehigh Valley r. Co.,
3 l. C. C. 46O-that there is no I'M
bending rule by which to determine
what common carriers may reason
ably charge for their services, but the
reasonable rate must be ascertained
from the facts of the particular case.
To be reasonable, rates must be just,
both to the parties Immediately in
tcrested and to the public. Conccd
ing that counsel correctly indicates
the object of railroad traffic to be
the profits derived from it, the low
er compensation of the road cannot
be less than will enable it to render
the service; otherwise the freight
will not and cannot be carried. The
highest must not be more than the
shipper can afford to pay; otherwise
the freight will not be shipped. Rea-
sonable rates are within these min
imum and maximum limits, and
must be determined upon the cir
cumstances of each particular case
To this we would add that facts and
circumstances surrounding the oper-
ations at the time of the inquiry
should be given great consider
alton"

badly lacking in reserve strength.
Fchl has created much excitement
after the first two months of play,
by having his despised Red Sox out
ir front.
But why the "Houdini" title?
1t is impossible to make a major
league ball club over in a
year, although Quinn and Foil, the
directing heads at Boston, have
made pretty good job of it.
Three years is considered the av-
erage time to rebuild a major league
club. Connie Mack has been at the
trick since 1914 and hasn't yet &C
complished his goal.
With limited strength in various
departments of play, a manager Is
called upon to make the best posi-
bic use Of available material.
That is just what Foil is doing.
Hence the title the "Houdini" VI
baseball.
The ma jor league manager lays
himself open to criticism every time
he makes strategic move. The
second guess invariably proves that
he "booted" one. SO far Foil IS
batting high in the league Of stra-
tegy.
With his sensational rookie short
stop Dudley Lee was injured Fob!
had no understudy. That was
problem number two.
In Shanks, Ezzel and Clarke he had
three third basemen, all of whom
had played second, but none of the
trio were familiar with the jntrica-
cies of shortstop.
Excel, fine fielding third sacker,
was tried at short. In his first game
he had four errors.
Then Foil experimental with
Shanks. who filled in very we'll.
At third base he has been using
his trio Of aspirants for the fob
with Lee having recovered from his
injuries.
Clarke, a left handed hitter, plays
third with a right handler pitching
for the. opposition. Either Shanks
or Excel, right handlers, draw the
job against a southpaw. Foil seeks
to get the very best offense possible
rather than worrying about defense
Relative to his outfield AMI
pitching, Foil is constantly called
upon to juggle his lineup to NEE
situations.
Often Foil takes Ike Boone, grea
4 hitter, out of the lineup in the ninti
inning and sends in John Collins.
Boone is fast learning the fieldin,
tricks. John Collins is a master
particularly of sun field. Whel
enjoying a slight lead late in tn
game, Foil seeks to hold it o

THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE

Texas Ignite rates and testified
that the North Dakota Ignite rates
should not exceed the Texas scales.
The Texas rates, both single line
and joint line, are in some instances
slightly higher and in some in
stances slightly lower than the
present North Dakota rates. The
Ignite rates in Texas are consider
ably lower than the bituminous rates
as shown on page 9 of exhibit as,
the Texas railroad commission has
no record Of any formal complaints
of discrimination because of this.
The Texas situation lends
strength to the protestants position
that Ignite should be accorded low
er rates than bituminous COAL"
The decision points out that the
Montana railroad commission declin-
ed to adopt the North Dakota sched-
ule of Ignite rates for that state
on the ground that they were con-
fiscatory, under a court decision.
In reviewing evidence which the de-
cisions states shows coal rates at
many places in the west higher
than the Ignite rates and in other
places lower, the railroad commits
sion dismsses the comparison on
the ground that the rates apparently
were made on the theory of what
"the traffic will bear"
The decision points out the argu-
ments of the Northwestern Coal
Dock Operators that its business is
Disseminated against in favor of
Ignite and the protestants' answer
that "if Ignite is entitled to low
er basis than coal Con the ground of
heating value diffcrencc), the exist
ence of such lower basis will not
then be discriminating against coal"
Encouraging Industry
1t points to the effort to encour-
age use of Ignite to build up North
west enterprises, but says the United
States Supreme Court has decided
that rates cannot be made simply to
build up local enterprises.
With regard to the carriers con-
tention that the present Ignite rates
are emergency rates, put into effect
during the war, the decision says:
at does not appear to us to he
material in this proceeding whether
the present rates are emergency
rates. The respondent carriers
have filed tariffs proposing rates
for future applications and, as we
view it, we are to determine from
the evidence before us whether the
proposed rates are reasonable rates.
1t is alleged by the carriers that
the present rates. are confiscatory,
and in support of this contention
they point out that the rates are
lower than the rates held confis-
catory by the United States Supreme
Court when consideration is given
to the various rate changes which
subsequently have been made. Wit
nesseS for the Northern Pacific,
stated that the return on the in
vestment in 1911 was 5.s47 percent,
while in 1928, it was 2.9S5 percent,
The operating ratio in 1911 was 61.48
percent. and in 1923 it was 1879 per-
cent. 1t is urged that rate con-
fiscatory in 1911 is confiscatory to-
day in the light of increased oper-
ating costs. AS general PROPOSE
ton this appears to be reasonable
statement. If we assume that the
conditions surrounding transporta
tion of Ignite are substantially the
same today as existed in 1911, we
must inevitably reach that conclu-
sion. 1t is true that operating costs
have increased. This is matter Of

STEADY GAIN MADE
 BY STEEL MARKET
August Expected To Show
 Greater Sales And Output

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.--While expan- sion in the steel business Is not pro- gressing as rapidly as has been pre- dicted, the market Is slowly but stead fly improving and sales and produc- tion during August undoubtedly made substantial gains over July. Uncer- tainty relative to values checked buy ing to some extent. A recent improve ment in the railroad demand for both rails and other equipment was added to the volume of new business. Pig iron was quiet during the week. but re- cent business has been fair and the output for August increased 106, ,246 tons over July.
 Copper firmed up early in the week in sympathy with advances abroad following the agreement on reparations. The small lots previously offered at concessions were either absorbed or withdrawn but no general demand de- veloped and the European markets eased off later. As a result the higher asking prices here were not fully main tained and while some of the produc- ing interests were quoting 13M cents at the end of the week, copper was available below that figure with the market more or less nominal.
 Tin ruled weager as consumers showed no inclination to anticipate re- quirements and offerings were quite liberal.
 Although lead was easy because of the lessened demand following inc large August sales, it is believed that future needs which are large are still uncovered.
 Zinc was quieter and easy owing to weakness abroad due to adbsence of export interest
 The political disturbance in China caused a withdrawal of antimony of- ferings from that market and conse- quent firmness here, prices advancins about 4 cent per pound for the week,
