DES MOINES, la.. Nov. 20.-(Spec1aI.)
At the hearing of the railroad commission
today with the express men the represen
tatives of the express companies wsre un
able to give the commission any detailed
Information on the matter of express rales,
but were quite certain that the rates now
In force were Just about right and needed
no alteration. The commission finally In
formed the express' men that It was not
opinions that were wanted but facts, and
i that the companies would be given a rea
sonable time fn which to get the facts,
j The commission met for the purpose of
! taking .up formally the matter of promul
' gating a schedule of maximum express
rates In conformity with the law enacted
by the last legislature. A score or more
. of express company representatives were
before the board. They made brief state
ments In which they all said practically the
same thing, to the effect that the price of
oats to. feed their horses and the cost of

years enormously. They admitted, too, that
the total business they had handled has
also Increased, but maintained also that
since It has become fashionable for each
state to have a railroad commission It has
become necessary for the express com
panies to hire many more clerks In order
to comply with the various orders as to
keeping books.
When Commissioner Eaton Indicated that
the commission wanted facts and asked
about' the amount of earnings In the state
of Iowa, the representative of the United
States Express Informed the commission
that Its waybills for one month would fill
a space thirty feet long, eight feet high
and a foot and a half thick. He said there
were 1.600,000 waybills In a month, pnd it
wss Impossible to find out what tho earn
ings were for Iowa over a period of years,
as the books are not kept to show the
earnings.
He did say that his company pays the
Rock Island road 66 per cent of Its gross
earnings and that 20 per'cent of what Is
left goea to agents In commissions.
The representative of' the American Ex
press company said they paid the North
western 50 per cent of their gross earnings.
E. S. Elliott of the Great Northern Ex
press company said they paid the Great
Northern railroad 40 per cent of the gross
earnings.
Commissioner Eaton for the board In
formed the representatives that the board
must have .facts, and that they would be
given a reasonable time to find the facta
The board then adjourned for the forenoon,
and this sfternoon took up the complaints
of the shippers as to express rates In order
to give the agents more time to get infor
mation as to their earnings and their rates.
Telegraph Company Held.
In reversing the action of a lower court
Of Washington county todsy the supreme
court holds that failure of the Western
Union Telegraph company to deliver a
message Is not offset by the fact that It
resulted to the 'advantage of the receiver
of the message. Aaron Htse of Washington
county arranged to sell eighty acres of
land and left It In the hands of a real es
tate agent and went to South Dakota.
While there the real estate agent tele
graphed him that he had an offer of 16,200
for the land,'' but through mistake it was
transmitted to "Aaron Sire, creamery,"
when Hlse worked at a butter and egg
house. Failure to deliver the telegram lost
the sale, but later Hlse sold the land for
16,406. The court holds that this did not
relieve the telegraph company of damages,
slnoe Hlse may have earned the extra
money hunting for another buyer.
