Dr. yWttba turned ov t th ev1tHI The reduction of 40 cents a ton ln tho freight rates on prepared sizes of coal from tho Schuylkill, Lehigh and Wyo ming districts to Philadelphia, which was ordered recently by the Pennsylvania Public Scrvlco Commission, Is to be con tested In tho Dauphin County courts. The Pennsylvania Itallrc-ad and the Philadel phia and Reading Railway Companies, together with tho smaller coal-hauling companies, have decided to make a Joint appeal directly to tho courts Instead of asking the Commission for a rehearing of the case. It was announced from tho ofIlce3 of tho Pennsylvania Railroad Company to day that tho appeal would bo made to morrow or Thursday. In tho statement, announcing tho Intention of the railroads to fight the case. It was said that tho re duction, If allowed to stand, would have diminished Mi? net revenue ot tho Penn sylvania by approximately $1,600,000 a year, the net revenuo of tho Reading Iby approximately $2,000,000, and thnt of tho other companies by several hundred thousand dollars. "The Importance to tho State of Penn sylvania and to tho city of Philadelphia of adequately conserving tho revenues of the carriers," tho statement concludes, "demands that Immediate action shall be taken to protect their revenues from such widespread destruction as Is Involved under this order of tho Pennsylvania Pub lic Service Commission." William N. Trlnkle, counsel for the Commission, will probably opposo tho contention of tho railroads Instead of tho attorneys who originally argued the con sumers' side of tho case, ward w. I'ler son and Harold S. Shertz. Tho latter at torneys, however, will co-opernto with tho Commission in fighting the railroads' ap peal. The railroad companies have obtained copies of tho record of tho hearings, cov ering nearly two years, nnd have been working on tho appeals for some time, although no notice of their Intentions first served on December 28, but It had been mado public today. Tho order of tho commission was later was discovered that, owing to a clerical error, the date when the new rates were to become effective was Jan uary 12 Instead of IS, as Intended. A new order correcting this was served Jan uary 5. Had the railroads decided to ask the commission for a rehearing Instead of appealing to the courts, January 23 would have been the final date for this action, as IS days Is allowed to appeal to the commission from Its order. According to tho order, tho rates are to become effective January 18. From this date, a period of SO days Is allowed tho railroads to put the order into effect pro vided they do not appeal. At ,the expiration of this time, pro vided' no appeal has been made, they are subject to a penalty of ISO a day for tho violation of the commission's order. Further, the officers of the companies who aro responsible for tho failure to carry out tho OTder shall bo guilty of a misdemeanor and subject upon con viction to a J00 ftnoor Imprisonment from 1 to 12 months, and to a fine of ftOOO or Imprisonment from 3 to 18 months for each subsequent offense.

S.-BRITI8H TANGLE Great Britain Determined to Test Transfer of Registry in Ship Bought From Germans. WASHINGTON, Jan. 12,-The stontn shlp Dacla, of tho Hamburg-American Line, which was sold to Edward N. llrettung, of Marquette, Mich., and placed In American registery undor tho newly enacted emcrgcncyroglstry law, will bo seized on tho high seas and taken before n British prize court. Definite Informa tion to this effect has reached Washing ton. The seizure of tho Dacla will bring to an Issue one of tho most Important ques tions that has been raised with respect to neutral shipping since tho outbreak of tho war in Europe. It will bo handled as a test case, and upon Its ultlmato outcomo will dopend tho decision whether tho fleet of German merchant vessels now tied up at New York and other American ports can bo Bold to American owners, transferred to the American flag and then used In trade with Europe over tho routes to Germany they havo trav ersed In tho past. Tho Dacla is now flying tho American flag. Sho Is nt Galveston loading cot ton. Sho Is scheduled to sail from Gal veston next Friday. It Is understood that her destination will bo Bremen. In formation reaching Washington tonight is to tho effect that the steamship will not reach Bremen, but will be halted at sea, taken Into n British port, and brought beforo a British prize court. It Is tho Intention of tho British Govern ment to leave tho settlement of tho lssuo primarily to tho decision of Its prize court. Should tho prlzo court rule that tho Dacla was transferred In an absolutely bona fide way to tho American flag, and that tho transfer was noT ln violation of tho Declaration of London, nnd per mits tho Dncia to proceed to Bremen, It li altogether probable that the owners of the Dacla and Its cargo will bo en titled to reparation and damages from tho British Government for unwarranted selzuro nnd detention. Should tho prize court hold the ship other and moro dif ficult problems may arise. Tho British Ambassador ln lnformnl conversations with American officials re garding tho new American registry law has repeatedly Intimated that his Gov ernment would test tho bona fldo char acter of any German transfer to Amer ican registry and regard It as Invalid If tho steamer transferred continued on the same trado route as before, or If it sailed to its original port. It Is believed hero that tho new own ers of tho vessel aro prepared for event ualities, and will bo ready to contest tho validity of tho seizure. LONDON, Jan. 12. Judging from Amer ican dispatches to the newspapers hero, tho British attitude concerning tho Dacla Is not understood In tho United States. Tho Morning Post says tho British Gov ernment Is still Investigating tho trans fer, and points to the great danger to Britain's welfare through tho transfer of German ships to tho American flag, wind ing up with the suggestion that such speedy Bhlps as tho Vaterland could through transfer of registry become com merce destroyers. Tho position taken by the British Gov ernment Is that If the Dacla or any other German ship transferred to Amer ican registry, engages In trado with Ger many, sho will be seized, something al ready known to tho Washington Govern ment. President Wilson's statement In his Indianapolis speech, blaming tho high freight rates on a lack of tonnage, Is considered faulty here. General condi tions, more particularly high Insurance costs, are considered the real reason of tho advanced charges. WEEK-OLD BABY ABANDONED round on Doorstep of Orphanage Which Declined to Becelve Her. Her name Is Helen and she's a week old.

' Three of the policies are for endow ment Inauranoe. When ho contracted to tako the five policies, Spencer named his wife, Kate, as the beneficiary.

CHARGE THAT PLOT HINDERS PORT STIRS BUSINESS MEN HERE Moore's Speech in House, Declaring Railroads Have Agreement With Govern ment, Amazes Capital. Wldcsprend discussion nmong those af filiated with railroad and coal Interests and Philadelphia business men generally today followed tho statement of Repre sentative J. Hampton Moore, of this city, to the effect thnt certain railroads aro In leaguo with tho United States Gov ernment ln nn effort to hinder tho com merce of tho port of Philadelphia Official circles ln Washington received tho state ment with astonishment and It was dis cussed to the exclusion of almost every thing elso today. Representative Moore, speaking beforo tho House on tho rivers and narbors bill yesterday, declared that delay on tho part of the Government engineers to dredge the Delawaro River to n depth of 35 feet to Allegheny nvenuo might result In tho cancelation by tho Navy of tho contract to deliver coal from Philadelphia. The Government has n contract to tako coal from tho Pennsylvania contractors. Tho coal Is delivered from piers In the upper Delaware. Because of the delay of the Government engineers In complying with tho law, Representative Moore says a collier carrying coal from that point recently went nshore. Tho contractors have now been notified that tho coat must henceforth bo delivered from Norfolk. Sir. Mooro says he Is prepared to re veal a startling condition nnd to show the public, among other things, why tho Delawaro River nlwnys gets a smalt ap propriation In comparison with other pro jects. His speech yesterday was prepara tory to tho development of IiIb Intention to dlscloso tho alleged treaty, ho said. "Recent tests of bituminous cont from Pennsylvania havo proven Its accepta bility to tho United States Navy," eald Mr. Moore, "and contracts for delivery nt Philadelphia Indicate that tho navy can do business at the port ot Philadel phia with profit to the Government, but questions of navigation nave arisen whloh threaten to do the port ah injustice and place tho Government at a possible loss, "1 do not Intend at this time to fur ther discuss tho question of coat for steaming purposes, or tho proficiency of naval captains, or pilots to safely navi gate tho river, but I do desire 10 draw attention to the fact that ln the matter of certain coal shipments recently made the port ot Philadelphia has suffered ln tho Interest of other ports having a channel depth of 35 feet. "Testimony recently given before ths Commltteo on Naval Affairs presents art unusual condition with regard to the mat ter of coal. In ordor to circumvent what was believed to be a combination to con trol tho price of coal delivered at Nor folk, tho Secretary of tho NaVy discov ered a now source of coal supply In Pennsylvania. Ono of tho great collier of tho navy came up to the port of Philadelphia and departed with a load of this coal. Now we hear that channel depths nro again under discussion in tho departments, and that coal that should havo been shipped from Phila delphia may bo shipped to other ports at an Increased cxpensa to the Government." &.
