Roosevelt's Letter.
SAYS SITUATION IS UNCHANGED
Former President's Effort to Secure
Direct Nomination Legislation Look
Upon as Test of His Power
In New York.
Albany, N. Y., June 30. Colonel
Roosevelt's telegram to Lloyd C. Grls
com urging that the Cobb direct noml
nations bill be passed is today the
most absorbing of topics of discussion
among the lawmakers and politicians
gathered hero.
Some of the members of the legisla
ture who have been opposed to til
proposed primary reform assume a
air of resentment nnd declare that the
former president's message is an Indi
cation that he proposes to act as dic
tator In the affairs of the state. This,
they say, will not be tolerated.
Other lawmakers have been genu
inely astonished by the Roosevelt tele
gram. All agree that its effect upon the ac
tion of the state legislature will decide
whether Colonel Roosevelt wields the
powerful Inlluence credited to him or.
his return from his travels abroad.
Indications today are that the law
makers will proceed with the plan
determined upon before the Roosevelt
message was received, to refuse tc
pass any sort of direct nomination!
bill.
Commenting on the Roosevelt tele
gram, Speaker Wadsworth said:
"Colonel Roosevelt's request, nddress
ed to County Chairman Grlscom o:
New York nnd not to the legislature
that the Cobb bill become law makei
no change In the situation. A mnjorltj
of the members of the assembly art
opposed to that bill and the amend
uieiits proposed by Chairman Grlscom
They regnrd them as abusrd. I bcllevi
the assembly will defeat tho Cobl
bill, as I have believed from the out
set"
Colonel Roosevelt's message was ap
parently sent after his meeting witl
Governor Hughes at the Harvard unl
versltv commencement. It was as fol
lows:
Cambridge. Mass., June 23, 1D10.

hope that It will be enacted Into law.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT,

It was claimed that $200,000 was'

was pay for the Democratic represent-
atlvo's vote for Lorlmer.
White also said he had got his share

Freight Rate Decisions Af
fect Entire Country.
QUEER METHODS ARE REVEALED
Interstate Commerce Commission Cuts
Railroad Charges Shows How In
creasing Rates and Lowered Ex
penses Swell Incomes.
Washington, June 30. Nation wide
Interest wns attracted today by the
freight rate decisions banded down
yesterday by the interstate commerce
commission;
I These decisions affect freight rates,
1 both class and commodity, on all trans-
continental Hues operating between
' the Atlantic nnd Pacific oceans. Ex
I tensive reductions were ordered.
. The decisions nro in what are known
as the Paclllc coast cases. The cases
were heard last autumn by tho com
mission, on its six weeks' trip to the
Pacific const and lntermountnln terri
tory and have been under consider.!
tiou ever since.
In every instance reductions In the
existing rates complained of were
made, and in some instances they
amounted to nearly 50 per cent. The
commission found through Its Inquiry
I a remarkable rate situation existing
on the Pacific const and even a more
remarkable one In the lntermountnln
territory. This is notably true of the
rutes to nnd from Spokane, Wash., and
Reno, Nev.
The decision of the commission in
the case of the city of Spokane against
the Northern Pacific and Great North
ern railroad companies and other car
riers was prepared by Commissioner
l'routy. It was held that the earnings
of the Northern Pacific and the Great
Northern for the ten years preceding
1003 "might fairly be termed excessive
and that reductions In revenues might
ttllI.f..N.. 1w. ......1.. I....
... ..... , , , . -
the constitutional rights of those-coui-
paules."
In fixing the rates to Spokane the
commission did not use the rates to
Seattle as a standard, but adjusted the
rates to Spokane upon what It consid
ered to be a reasonable basis, taking
into account that water competition at
Spokane was not material. Then the
commission held ns follows:
"Joint through rates, both class and
commodity, should be established from
dellued territories, east of Chicago to
Spokane."
LA LltWU Ul U1C A 1 U 1 UUU UUU AlliiVUU
cu809 heavy reduction In class rutes is
Iu each of the Nevada and Arizona
ordered, some of the reductions being
us high as 33 1-3 per cent.
It was poluted out, as illustrating
the western methods of llxlug rates,
that for carrying a carload of first
class trafllc containing 20,000 pounds
from Omaha to Reno the Union nnd
Southern Pacilic lines charge S85S, but
thut If the same carload goes 154
miles further, to Sacramento, the
charge Is but $000. The first class
rate to the more distant point, Sacra
mento, is $3 per 100 pounds and to the
nearer polut, Reno, $4.29 per 100
pounds. If the same carload of freight
originates at Denver, 500 miles west
of Omaha, the same rates to Reno and
Sacramento apply, and if the freight
originates at Boston, 1,800 miles east
of Omaha, the rates are tho same.
Turning to the division of earnings
between carriers ou trafllc from the
east to Reno, the commission Unds that
tuc uons snare accrues to tue soutu-
em Paclllc company.
After discussing the situation the
commission adds:
The fact remains, however, that for
tho 2,400 mile haul from New York to
Ogden the New York Central, the Lake
Shore, the Northwestern and the Union
Pacilic secure the same revenue out of
the $3 rate to Sacramento that they do
out of the $4.20 rate to Reno.
Astonishing facts were developed by
tho commission at Us bearings con
cerning tho earning capacity of the
Pacific lines. The commission shows
that during the last two years the
operating revenues of the Southern
Paclllc company's Pacific system had
Increased $8,000,000, while its operat
ing expenses had decreased $5,000,000.
thus producing an Increased operating
lncomo of over $12,000,000, or a net
increase of about $2,000 per mile of
road.

Former Champion Picks Jef
fries as Winner of Big Fight.
Victoria, B. G., June 30. Bob Fits
Mmmous, who arrived on tho Marama
from Sydney, picks Jeffries as tho win
ner In Monday's battlo for the world's
championship. Ho thinks tho tight
will not go over twenty rounds. John
son, he believes, while clever, hasn't
got the punch.
"A fight Is ns uncertain ns a horse
nice, and this one particularly," said
Fitzslmmons, who is en route to Reno.
"But my opinion Is -well known. John
son won't stand long against tho mas
sive strength and bearlike tenacity ot
Jeffries providing he is In shape. I
haven't seen Jeffries yet, nor have I
hnd a chance of sizing up Johnson,
but I believe that the negro champion
will weaken before tho big fellow."
San Francisco, June 30. Tommy
Burns, whom Jnck Johnson defeated,
has arrived from Australia and will go
to Reno tomorrow to sec tho fight
Burns naturally thinks Jeffries will
win, ns he never has had a good word
for Johnson since the negro whipped
him. Burns said: "I look for Jeffries
to knock out Johnson about the twen
tieth round. If Jeffries is only bnlf as
good as he used to be he will win."
