IIILIIONS IY WOLD . ; A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE RATE CASE Which Was Decided By the In terstate Commerce Commis sion Saturday Washington, August 1.-Tito rail roads which applied for the interstate commerce commission's! permission', to raise their freight rates were tho f>2 line? |n the territory east of the Mis sissippi and north of the Ohio and Poloniae, rivers. The increases asked was live per cent, just half of the In ereas which these same railroad?'t ried to get approval of In 191? but failed. lt was deemed thut public peritimoht desired a prompt decision of tho new application, and the interstate com merce commission immediately Insti tuted hearings, at which President Willard of the Baltimore & Ohio, Pres ident Delano of the Mbnon system,' George Stewart Patterson,-, generar consel . of the Pennsylvania, and other prominent railroad ofilcials gave ; testimony. Louis D. Brandeis, of Bos. J< ton, representing and the shippers,! was one of the leading counsel in bp- ' position. The contention of'the railroad man.] agers was that in tho last three yearn the railroads had spent $600,000,000 in 1 new capital, but that tn 1913 the earn-1 ingB were IIC.O0O.000 less than fn j 1912; that the greatest Increases in railroad expenses had come about by higher wages, taxes and new invest' ment in the properties; that condi tions, were such that the New York Central had since September, 1913, been forced to lay off 23,000 men; and it was strongly intimated by some wlu ( nest-.es that unless the situation was relieved the railroads might have to accept government ownership as the only alternative. The. opposing contentions " were in effect that the railroads were con stan tiyeirjoytag b fgher 'revenue that they" spent'more onimprovements last year tb an any other year In Malory; that one terminal alone built at a cost cf $108.000.000 "would have built an entire railroad from New York^o Chi cago;" and,, above all, that thc free services which the rairoads perform ed for large industrial concerns, woUld. if paid for, net the railroads approximately $30,000,000 a year. Mr. Brandeis declared that "a nu m ap proaching $100,000,000 a year >s easily within the railroads grasp if l Hhods of conserving revenues which*:are;be ing suggested aro adopted.", g . Tho greatest opposition'.from ship-, pers came - from t hos J interested - in coul and petroleum, and it was chare- L ed by independent refiners. that' 'toe increased freight rates would ?bepe?U the Standard Oil company at^jbo.'ex pense of the independent concerns. Various attempts were m?denlo rep resent President Wilson as being!Jp favor of the increase, but he took the stand that the case was before a' quasi Judicial" body; abd no word or tim pres*. Id?nt'B attitude ever was officially given. He did, however, express the view that tno cas0 should bei.de;0r-: mined without unneceesary dej?y.-.'

Following this. Chief Lee advised Coroner. Hardin of ' the1 story'told: hy tho negro and hiv Hardin went cn. a search for the ne gros house. He finally located it near j a concrete storo just off of McDuffie street, but when he arrived the eoro-i ner found four vicious .bull dogs and there was no ono nt home. The coro ner had considerable difficulty in get ting into the yard, but he says that after be Anally secured entrance, he could And no trace of the dead infant. He says however,-that the place was littrrel with bones..' and that he has never been assailed by such ah cdor before in all of his life. Speaking of thc occurence to a re porter, for Thc Intelligencer last night Coroner Hardin, said that the negro's story was substantially as follows: That Childs went out in thc back yard and noticing that his dogs were play ing with a bundle he drove them away and investigated, finding that a baby had been wrapped In a cloth and was thrown into bis back yard, ''where it was partially devoured by the dogs. The negro reported. that there was some, name on the cloth in which the infant was wrapped, but the name had been partially o?iiterated: Coroner Hardin enid last nigh' that he'did not'know what, would be done about the case, since he could not find the remains, but that some action may be taken. He said that the city offic ias should certainty try to clean up tho part of the town is which the gruesome find was rr.ade.

Their condition is splendid, at any season of the year according to the motorists. A North Carolina man writing to the Manufacturers' Record has told of the how .'he maintenance of the road is accomplished, and it might be well to try this same ?cheme oq some of the Anderson highways. "Parties on the Charlotte-Abuevllle | highway, on the Hendersonville-Ash ville highway, have organized a co operative, road and are employing tho road overseers and section men whose : business it 1B to keep up the road and repair sume, just as the section ; mon along the railroad do.

"All those who contribute as much! as 25 cents are members of the organ 1 ization and are entitled to one vote, aud each 25 cen is additional that ia paid m entitles the contributor to a vote : In this way we can keep all the rocks that interfere with automo biles out of the way, as well as make repairs from time to time.

Angil it nt the home of his, futile", M. i: lUehanlson. Commander Richardson ls, according j to the reports In the m?tropolitain pa- ' pera, one of the strong young men of the United States navy and in a recent letter from tho secretary of the navy was commended for his' common sense! in the Brooklyn navy yard he has iu- ; stltuted a System of keeping up the machinery which has resulted in a saving of $75.000 a year to tho navy, and it ls all done with the offering of a few prizes to stimulate competition among the men. He ls yet at work on that great Diesel oil engine, which he had Commenced on last year and he [declares.lt will be one of the greatest In the wqrld and will cost >?280,000.

But come war, or come peace, he never, expects, to be In a tighter place than he was'last spring' when ho presided'Over the banquet of the na val engineers pt tho United States in Washington and had as the guests of honor Josephus Daniels, the secretary I ot the navy. Mr. Richardson was on pins and 'needles all night for.fear that some pt thc-boya would ?tart that "Carabea" song; but be managed a lot of diplomacy to head it off, and the evening passed by without unpleasant incident and everybody singing ."Auld , Lang Se^n'e", and; that was all, ,' Notice.

LOCAL MAN MAY GET FINE TRIP South Carotina Will Send Two Men To San Francisco Wiihin Next Few Days I It IB understood that there I? some possibility of un Anderson man being picked us one of the two representa- \ tives to go from this Stute to San Francisco within the next few weeks to make arrangements for tho South | Carolinu exhibit, which will be seen at the Panama exposition. This pos sibility lies In the fact that two men are to bc chosen for this duty, one to come from thc "low country" and' the other from the Piedmont section. It ls known that those who have been in strumental in arranging for the South p Carolina exhibit look with favor up- ? on selecting a man from this city for 8 the work. t Porter A. Whaley,. secretary of tho Jj Anderson chamber of commerce re- 8 eclved a telegram yesterday, asking 0 if he would come to Columbia Mon- v day for a meeting of those Interested i tn tho proposition and Mr. Whaley i? will probably make the trip. He may Q be accompanied by one or two An- a derson people. - Plans for the South Carolina cxhib- jj it are getting along nicely. The fund q ls being raised and since the commit- \ tee has struck on the Idea ot Bending a number of medals out all over the n State, to be sold at $1 each and the c proceeds applied to the fund, this fund p will probably be considerably swelled i within the next few days. The Intel- j ligencer has received Ave of these medals, as did every other newspaper | in the state. When each of these pa- f per? sell their Ave, (ive more will be j sent to every bank in the state for j them to dispose of. In this way' a j number of pretty little medals will be distributed all over the state and t many dollars, will be realized for- the ' State's exhibit. iiiiiii? SOUTHERN BUSINESS WAR HAS DEPRESSING EF FECT HERE PROSPECT IS DARK All Industries of This Section Must Be Effected By War Now Being Waged Abroad What will bo tho effects upon local business of a general European war*/ This question hus been asked and nn. swored during the past two or three days. The answers vary widely, though lt is the concensus of opin ion that a War . in Europe will make the money market of this country tight. This being thc ease, Anderson's industries will feel tho effects of the conflict, for the money which the mill:, ot, this section operate upon comes from-the same sources which Europe will drsw from-the general banks ot there ig ho fear of a panic, as tho gov ernment has asserted Its intention ot providing money for crop moving, pur- J poses. ? On the other side of. the question, there are some who contend idat a European war would enrich the United States, as this country would be called upon for supplies. A gen eral war would cripple many Euro pean Industries, and the industries of the United States more than any other nation would be called upon to supply the deficit. Should this condition come about, the United States would eventu ally -be the mercenary beneficiary of the conflict. Still another phase of thc mutter, and the one which caused a sever*/ reaction In the markets of Thursday, ls the met that the commerce,of thr? world might be tied up by the war. The United States has no merchant marine which could handle ?he com merce, and Bhould ships of other nat ions bu unwilling or .unable lo take the high seas and engito .? commerce the United States might ilnd Itself drained of gold, and overstocked in gooda, - The foreign commerce of thlB nation would bo shut off by thia con tingency. Whatever may, be the effect of the war upon the .United 8tates Anderson will be aware of those' ejects. The larger industries of thia .section bra very sensitive, and that Whllth affects the nation's business end ?nances will I quickly .affect the mill interests of thia I section, because pf the fnct that these^ .-'/y, V-.V. f-p: I HOME-COMING" DAY^v AT 'PELZER SATURDAY iVEROODY IS .
