It was the opinion of the com- mitteenien that before beginning a fight against the Increase it would bo wise to bring about such a meeting with the railroad ollicials , if possible at the same tlmo asking them to put no advances into effect until after the conlorenco had been held. W. C Brown , senior vice president of the. Now York Control lines , Is said to have expressed a willingness to com ply with the request.

DENY ANY POLITICS IN MOVE Ask Chief Executive to Enforce De cree Against Missouri Pacific and Rock Island Chlcncjo Shippers Seek Another Conference. Cincinnati , July 25. Brushing aside ul ! Intermediate processes and modes ol action , the lloce > lvers' and Shippers' association of Cincinnati bus cariled Its war against a general Increase in iiillvtiiy freight rates directly to the ptt'stdout of thu United States. In general effect , a communication tor- warded to President Hoosevell asks the chief executive whether or not ho Intends to enforce a decree Issued boiiie years ago against certain rail roads. If so , he Is asked to at once caiibu the attorney general to bring proceedings for contempt against thu Missouri Pacific railway and the Chicago cage , Hock island and I'acillc rail- load. Denying that politics had any thing to do with the letter at this time , it is explained that because of the tact that certain general increases In freight rates are to become effec tive Aug. 1 by certain roads , piompt and positive action became necessary. In conclusion , the letter says : "This association stands for a square deal for common carriers , ft believes that their property rights should be protected the same as the property rights of Individuals , but we are un alterably opposed to any policy of the carriers which has /'or / its purpose the ignoring of our courts and the placing of themselves above thu laws of the land. | f they expect the protection of the laws and the courts they must show a wholesome regard for the law and respect the decrees of the courts , If the Missouri Pacific and Kock Isl and deliberately Ignore this solemn mandate of the courts and continue in an unlawful manner to burden trade and commerce among the states by continually increasing rates , the ejues tion arises : " 'Is there no power In this land sufficiently strong to reach railroad companies that recklessly brush aside the decrees of our courts ? ' "This association believes you will in the carrying out of your policy foi the strict enforcement of the law ser to It that those two railroad compi nies are obliged In the future to oo- serve this decree.

Red Oak , Villisca , Corning and Creston , la. , turned out largo crowds , who cheered for "Our next president. " Mr. Bryan , so far as he could do so during the limited time of the stops , shook hands with all In reach. At Red Oak a man in the crowd shouted , "Hurrah for Hill. " Mr. Bryan set the crowd laughing when he responded that "Hurrahing for Bill is a very non-partisan yell this year. " He made a low remarks , in which he said while he was not officially notified he i.o'ild ' not make any polit ical speeches , but that after Aug. 1 he would "commence to talk. " At Corning apparently the whole population was oit. : Mr Bryan's entry Into the city was a triumphant one.

President lloosmelt announced In unmlstakitble tciuiH the determination ot the admin Isttatlon to proceed with the prosecu tion of the Standard Oil case , di'splti' the decision adverse to the govern incut handed down by the United States tiifiiit court of appeals. Thl decision , the president thinks , In no way affects the merits ol the cast- mill he makes known his decision t < cause the action to he brought ngalu holoie the courts In mich shape , If pus slhlo , to prevent the technicalities In tottering with a decision hasod upon the actual Issues Involved. The state ment In the matter , made public by Sei-H'tary Loeh , follows : "The president has dtri'cled the at torney general to Immi'dlatoly take Mops for the letrlal of the Standard Oil case. The leversal of the de cision of the lower court does not in any shape or way touch the merlls , ol the case , except insofar as the size of he line Is concerned. Then1 Is abso utely no question of the guilt of the eloiidaiits or ot the exceptionally gtave character of the otfonse. The uesldiMit would regard It as a gross nisc.irilagt > of justice If , through any echnicalltles of any kind , the defend- nit escaped the punishment , which vould have unquestionably been in-led out to any weaker defendant vho had been guilty of such olfeiisu 'he president will do everything In ils power to avert or pi event such uiscarrlage of justice. With this mrpose in view , the president has dl- ected the attorney geneial to bring nto consultation Frank 13. Kellogg In he matter and to do everything pos sible to bring the offenders to Justice.

A man accepts a white ray of light for what it is ; a woman passes it through a prism and resolves It Into its component rays. If I pass Mrs. A. In the street without saluting her she conjectures a dozen painful motives to account for my ab- scntmliuledncss. If she passes me I conclude that she Is shortsighted or nb- Bcntmlndcd. It" 1 say to my niece Molly that U and U make 4 she consents , but is uncon vinced. But if 1 show her this little formula IVi + te + l-K + Visshe ! is at once all alive with Interest and sits down to work It out and proclaim in triumph that It Is so. From a hard and dull statement of the fact It has become a problem ami an Intrigue , and here she Is in her element. That Is the way of womankind In all relations to life. "Comments of Bag- shot. " This Makes It Very Plain. The meaning of the word "swastika" is "It Is well , " or good luck. The meanIng - Ing of the symbol is more complex. Some folks trace it to the sun. "Thu emblem is the sun In motion , " arguet Professor Max Mullcr. "A wheel with spokes was actually re placed by what we now call swastika. The swastika is , In fact , an abbreviat ed emblem of the solar wheel with spokes In It , the tire and the move ment being indicated by the cramprus. "It Is the summary in n few lines of the whole work of creation , " said Mine. Blavatsky ; "is evolution , as one should eay , from cosmotheogony down to nn- tliropogeny , from the indivisible un known to materialistic science , whoso genesis is ns unknown to that science as that of the all Deity itself. The swastika Is found heading the religious symbols of every old nation. " The Defect In His Dressing. The professor of surgery in one of England's universities lias the reputa tion of being one of the most painstak ing and delicate operators in Britain , thoughtful of the patient and careful in the clinic. Ono day In the course of a clinical demonstration he turned to n student who had Just commenced his studies with the question : "Now , sir , can you toll mo what 13 wrong with my dressing ? " The Ingenuous youth turned red and preserved n discreet silence. The pro fessor , however , was not to bo put off and repented the question. After a long pause the youth stammered out In n fit of desperation : "Well , sir , If you Insist on my telllug you , I should say your tie la not quite straight" London Globe.
