COMMERCE COMMISSION
APPROVES NEW MILEAGE RATE
Increase From 2 to Zi Cents a Milo
Will Decdme Effective Tomorrow.
The Interstate Commerce Commission,
not hnvlnrr notified the Pennsylvania
Railroad and tho Philadelphia and Read
ing Hallway Company of any suspension
of the proposed mllcago book rato ad
vances, tho new rates will automatically
become effective tomorrow. The Commis
sion has given Its "tacit approval" to the
proposed Increases, but later It may direct
a general Inquiry to determine tho causes.
Tho Increases 'wilt boost tho mileage
book rato from 2 to 3V4 cents a mllo, and
will affect all of the railroads cast of
Pittsburgh nnd north of tho Potomao
lllver. In other words, travelers who now
got 1000-mile books for $20 will have to pay,
tomorrow, $22.60 for the same book. Tho
rato for the 1000-mllo Interchangeable
book, which Is now $25, with a return of
$5 upon presentation of tho book cover
nfter the mileage has been used, will to
morrow bo $25, with a rebate of only $2.60
upon return of book,
Tho railroads have not yot made appli
cation to the' commission for permission
to Increase their slnglo trip passenger
rates. Such a request had been planned,
but the officials of the Eastern lines ap
parently figured that It would bo moro
consistent to await tho commission's ac
tion on the proposed 6 per cent, freight
rato advanres. A rehearing has boen
granted the roads In this application. It
will be held October 19 nt Washington.
It Is tho general feeling In railroad cir
cles that tho commission will see the
necessity for at least part of tho proposed
rato advances and that It will permit the
enforcement of Increased tariffs. In that
ovont, If the Increases to be granted shall
bo In tho neighborhood fo tho 5 per cent,
asked for, there will probably bo dropped
the plan to boost revenue Income by
higher passenger fares.
Presidents and counsel of several East
ern railroads met In New York today
to plan for the reopening of the Eastern
rate case boforo the Interstate Commerce
Commission on October 19. Witnesses will
probably be put on the stand to de
scribe specifically how the European war
has created an emergency In American
railroad affairs, and to describe tho ef
forts the railroads have mado to carry
out the suggestions of tho commission
as to conserving net revenues. It Is
understood that President Wlllard, of
tho Baltimore nnd Ohio, who opened the
case originally for the railroads, will
mako the opening statement nt tho forth
coming hearing.
Wostern trnfllc ofllcers, who expected
last week to fllo rate advances within
one month, now say It will require two
months.

woie 28,000,000 bushels more thnn for the
corresponding period last year. The
total exports of wheat and Hour from

of slightly over 100,000.000 bushels total
gain for tho year, and If maintained
through tho season would point to total
exports of about 370,000,000 bushels.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30. With Charles S.
Mellon again on the stand, the Federal
Grand Jury today proceeded with lta
probe Into tho affairs ot tho New York,
New Haven nnd Hartford Itallroad dur
ing the time Mellen was at the head of
the 3ystem. It Is through this Investiga
tion that the Government expects to ob
tain criminal Indictments against members
of the Board of Directors, declared to be
responsible for the looting of the New
Haven.
William Rockefeller, one of the most
promlnont members of the board; George
F. Btkor, Charles F. Brooker and .Tajnos
S. Elton httvenow severed their connec
tions with .the road. Their resignations
were tendered and accepted at a meeting
of the board as Mellen was befoie the
Grand Jury telling of the operations of
the system.
There Is no doubt that the Government
Intends to press the case to the limit.
Mellen refused all comment today, stat
ing the strictest admonitions of secrecy
had been impi cased upon him.
Counsel for tho former head of the rail
road system, declared Mellen had gained
Immunity from prosecution In connection
with all transactions he had disclosed be
fore the Interstate Commeice Commis
sion. Tin. present Investigation, it !
therefore understood. Is not directed at
Mellen, but at other directors the Gov
ernment hopes to reach throush the evi
dence that may be furnished by the for
mer president.

were considered, and the total award
was $271,674,00. Taken as a whole, the
award seems as fair to botli sides as
may be, when It Is considered that loss
of rental and loss ot business cannot
be regarded at such.
In the cases where no damage was
given six properties showed only a range
In change cf grade from one-eighth of
an Inch on one line to zero on the other
to one and seven-eighths Inches on one
line to zero on the other. One claim I
was that of a tenant who had a yeaily
lease, and the case of the Episcopal llos- '
pltal, where only the adjustment of the
stone wall and Iron fence on same, to
gether with relaying pavements and re
setting curb, was asked. This has been
done In the best way possible by the

NEW YORK, Sept. 30,-Tho first two
block of balk line play yesterday after
noon and evening In the International
billiard match at the Hotel Astor served
as a vehicle for William Hoppe to catch
and jrasa Motbourne Inman, tho cham

Inman by 10000 points to 295 on the day's
play, scoring 600 to 107 In tho afternoon
and 600 to 18S at night. That made the
grand total scorn In Hoppo's favor 1304
to 97.
Hoppe -went Into the load at tho begln
Ing of the afternoon block and steadily
Increased hl-j advantage until ho- moved
Into the front on the grand tQtal of
points. The Amoricnn finished, tho ses
sion with 500, to 107 for tho Brltou. This
forced Inman to tho rear on tha total

STAtTB FAILED TO LAST
NORRISTOWN, Sept. SO.-An unex
pected reversal of form by Willie Staub,
of Norrlstown, In tho seventh round of
tho wind-up at tho weekly show of th
Palaco A. C. here last night caused the
referee to stop the bout to save him
from further punishment. Opposed to
Johnny Ferguson, of Philadelphia, Staub
had somewhat tho better of a series of
slashing exchanges and was entitled to
the verdict at the end of five rounds.
The sixth, however, was a different
story. Ferguson began matters by drop
ping his opponent to the canvas for tho
count of nine. The latter struggled to
his feet and managed to hold on Until
near the end of the round, when he was
again deposited on the floor by one of
Ferguson's punches, but the bell came
to his rescue. Seeing that his minute's
rent had failed to hjve a recuperating
eli'ect on Staub, and that It was but u
question of time before the end would
come, the referee stepped between the
fighters and declared Ferguson the
winner.
Domlnick Tollerlne, of NorrlstoVfn,
I made up for his fellow townsman's short
I comings by getting the better of Lew
Stinger, of Philadelphia, In the teml-wlnd-up.
The prellminaies resulted as
follows: Batting Hudson got the deci
sion over Eddie Clark, and Harry Davis
bested Eddie Russell.
