RATE MAKING BIG .SUBJECT
Attracta Attention at Meeting: of
Railway Commissioner ef State
at Washington.
WASHINGTON, Oct 11. When the nine
teenth annual convention of the National
Association of Railway Commissioners
convened today for Its final session, It took
up, under special order, the subject of
"Railroad Taxes and Plans for Ascertain
ing Fair Valuation of Railroad Property."
In addition to thla subject, upon which a
committee's report Is pending, three other
reports for consideration were "Delays At
tendant Upon Enforcing Ordera of Rail
road Commissioners," "Rates and Rate
Making" and "Demurrsga end Reciprocal
Demurrage." '
The report on "Rates and Rate Making"
attracted the moat Interest, as It appeals
more directly to the penile than my other
matter before the convet.tlon. The election
of officers for the ensuing year occurred
today. .

Osborne was a student In P'lscetr., where
the marriage with Miss Maloney is alleged
to have taken place. He said today that
after the ceremony the young woman wont
to her home, while he remained with his
parents. There were frequent meetlngi.
and when the young woman sailed for
Europe with her family last January, he
was at the pier to bid them goodby. Dur

prevent their keeping several engagements
made after her return. He frequently

Matters at Capital.
(From a Staff Correspondont.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. ll.-(Speclal Tele
gram.) The complaint filed with th In
terstate Commerce commission against
the Rock Island Railway company by the
Lincoln Commercial club will be hoard in
Lincoln October 28, to be conducted by
Special Examiner Farrcll. The Lincoln
club complains of "unjust and dis
criminatory rates on various commodities
ln favor of Omaha and against Lincoln."
Complainants assert that tho Rock
Island railroad gave to Lincoln a uni
form rat with Omaha, but in order to
prevent the operation of classified rates
established by defendants through their
classification committee, said defendants
have created special commodity ..rates
wherein Is given an unwarrantable anj
unreasonable preference in freight rates
to Omaha on coal, lumber, cement, lime,
plaster, brick, glassware, coal and otlior
commodities between the pointa on thslr
respective railroads ln the state of Kan
sas, Missouri, Arkansas,. Mississippi,
Louisiana and Texas over the freight
ratea given by the same acrenuanis rom
th'; same points to Lincoln.
It is also asserted the cities of Omaha !
and Lincoln are large consumers of 'coal .
from the mines at Carbon, Center, hum, '
Rich Hill and Sprague, Mo., and from
Pittsburg. Shipment of this coal orl,l- i
nates on the road of the St. Louis A fcan !
Francisco, thence by way of Kanaaa City i
and the Burlington to the cities of Lli-
coln and Omaha. In each inatanco Lin
coln complains Omaha Is given a special
commodity rate preference over Lincoln.
In fact, Lincoln alleges that Omaha is
getting all the best of it on rates and
calls for a new deal.

DETROIT, Oct. 1L In the first game ox
the world' series on their own grounds,
the American league team was beaten this
afternoon by the Chicago Nationals by a
score of to 1. It was a well deserved vic
tory for th Chicago team, as It played su
perior base ball throughout the game. Ther
were several errors of omission on the part
of th team besides the two error scored
against them which figured In the Chicago
run-making.
