For Newspaper Rate Increase

Washington, Sept. P}-Argu- ment began today before the inter- state commerce commission over the proposal of eastern railroads to in crease rates charged for baggage car distribution of newspapers.
 H. w. Bikle, representing the eastern roads. explained at length the plan which would increase 10 30 cents the present rate of 30 cents per 100 pounds when the movement Is in one freight asssociation classi- flcation. In case of shipments across the boundary between railroad freight associations the increase pro- posed is from GO cents 10 $1 per hundred.
 Railroads have met an increase of about 107 per cent in expenses for wages and material during the last ten years, Bike said, whereas the newspaper baggage car trans portation rates are very little above the levels of ten years ago.
 The railroads are willing to mod fly the interdistriCt increase, he said, so that fiat rate of 50 cents per hundred pounds would apply 10 baggage car shipments which do not move more than 500 miles, even though they cross freight associa- ton boundaries. He estimated that S3 per cent of the newspaper ship ments originated from five or six of the larger eastern cities, and declared the insistence upon speed in the service justified the Increased charges.

SWORD SWALLOWER NEAR
 DEATH AFTER HIS ACT
Nine Inch Case Knife Goes Down Easily But Surgeons Get
 It Out.

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. P-Con- yincing work in his amateur sword swallowing act at local theater last night accomplished full result in the way of thrills for his au- dience but threatened to end disas- trously for Jack Hill, of Edgeied.
 Hill swallowed the sword all right "a nine inch case knife-but in his stomach the knife remained until surgeons removed 1t at d hospital several hours later.
 Apparently Hills act went over smoothly ending in a demonstration in which the knife disappeared down his throat. He bowed as the au- dience applauded, then left the stage without restoring the blade to view.
 Fully aware of his predicament, Hill went to hospital. An X-ray revealed the knife, the blunt end down and the front piercing his esophagus.
 Through an abdominal incision the blade was removed and except for incidental shock had caused no harm. Hill will recover.
