TRAIXMEJT PIT UNDER ARREST
Authorities at New Orleans Will In
veatlsate Fatal Wreck.
OKLEANS, Nov. 12.-As a result of
the collision which yesterday cost eight
Uvea and the serious Win mil n U- e t m
of pen on at Little Woods station, on the
New Orleans & Northeastern railroad, two
men huve already been arrested and thor
ough' investigation Is being made into the
wreck, as well as the delay in sending a
relief train from New Orleans.
Those arrested are Wayne A. Blackburn
and A. B. Keys, engineer and conductor
respectively, ot tho Great Northern express,
which telescoped the New Orleans & North
eastern local train. They were released
early today under $10,000 ball. It was an
nounced that the matter of whether the
Great Northern crew or the Northeastern
crew was responsible was In doubt, but
that Keya' and Blackburn's connection with
the train which did the damuge required
their arrest.
It was not known until late last night
exactly how many persons had been killed
or the extent of other Injuries, and even
today there was doubt as to whether all
of the bodies had been found.
An investigation completed this morning
appears to bear out the statement of rail
road officials last night that eight were
killed and twenty-three injured. The first
correct list of dead and injured was is
sued today, as follows:

DUTY ON WINE AND SPIRITS

of Information and which was prepared
under the direction of the clerk of the
committee on ways and means. The presi
dent's attltudo oh the subject of revision
is well known arid it Is expected that he
will convey to the committee on ways and
means some expression of his views on the
change proposed for further protection
and for continuing the ' policies advocated
by the present administration, and provided
for In the pure food and drug act.
The regulation of the Importation of olive
Ml Is one of the most Important subjects
which tho committee will have to consider,
as a result of the consideration of chem
icals, oils and paints. About 6,000,000 gal
lons of olive oil were Imported Into this
country In 1907, ot which over one-third
was admitted free of duty as olive oil fit
only for manufacturing purposes.
This latter oil. which ia used for lubri
cating, Illuminating, woolen dressing and
manufacture of soap, Is often difficult to
distinguish from the product used for food
and medicine. This difficulty has been
the cause of a large amount of litigation
and has shown that the prescribed tests
by which the durability of the oil is to be
determined as unsatisfactory. It has been
proven. In a case before the board of gen
eral appraisers. In which Dr. Wiley of the
Department 'of Agriculture testified, that
certain oil held to be free, of duty, as fit
only for manufacturing purposes, was used
for eating by a certain class of foreigners.
To overcome this difficulty It Is proposed
to change the requirements for the free
entry of olivo oil, . so that -It. must be
rendered unfit for use as food "by such
means as shall be satisfactory to the secre
tary of the treasury and under regulations
to be prescribed by him.:'. .
M. B. Bnevlley of NeW:York, representing
Importers and consumers of olive oil, in
speaking before the .committee with regard
to the proposed cbange to the laws at yes
terday's hearing, Safi - ,
:"Thls' would rcqulriC'denaturlng, which
might be suitable for some, but . not . for
others. Castile soap 1 one of tha principal
articles of manufacture tin this country In
which olive oil Is required. ; This soap, being
unscented, would no be marketable as
castlle soap If given an odor, as would be
necessary in denaturing. I would suggest
that a provision be made to have olive oil
admitted when it is shown that it is used
for manufacturing purposes."
The committee will gather further In
formation on the subject before determin
ing what changes In the present law It wlli
recommend. Tho Imports of olive oil rep'
resent a value of over $4,000,000.

on
RAILROADS SUDDENLY ENFORCE IT
I'ntrons Think Abbreviations or lnl
tlnls Will Answer, Especially in
Snob Names aa Oppenheliuer
and Hchnartsenstrla.
Omaha shippers are disturbed over what
Is termed the sudden enforcement by the
railroads of a provision regarding ship
ments by Rule 27 of the Western classifica
tion.' While the attitude of the shippers
toward the railroads Is not such that they
will burn down any freight yards, yet It is
certain they will protest vigorously to the
Nebraska Railway commission over tho
matter.
The situation ia this: All pieces of freight
shipped In less than carload lots are re
quired by rule of the roads to have the
full name of the consignee and destination
plainly marked on each separate and par
ticular piece of freight. The rule was
promulgated for November 1. Now, the
Bhlppera have contended that the require
ment of the full name will work in many
cases an unnecessary hardship and vexa
tion, but they were overruled by the west
em classification committee.
One angry shipper wished to know why
"the roads are acting so arbitrarily In the
matter. The order was to take effect the
first of November, but eleven or twelve
days have gone by without such action,
and suddenly, and It seems to me arbi
trarily, It is put Into effect The rule Is a
big nuisance, anyhow, and If not deliber
ately Intended to harass shippers, will do
so at any rate."
Fall Name the Rob.
".The part of the rule requiring the full
PAme, Is the rub, ; A, , shipment to a firm,
say at. Hastings, . called Oppenhelmer A
BchwartzenBteln " must be written out in
full on one and every piece of freight. Not
only this, but it the word "company" be
longs in the name It must also be added.
Consignments to some Greek business men
will require strenuous activity In shipping
departments If the rule stands. The ship
pers would like to abbreviate the last name
of a big firm name to the initial at least
and ship, for Instance, to "Oppenhelmer &
8." at Hastings.
From the standpoint of the shlp-per there
Is thls much hope In the situation. Before
any such rule Is effective It must be ap
proved by the Nebraska Railway commis
sion. This applies, of course, only to Intra
state shipments and not to interstate con
signments. Another point complained of by
the fhlppers Is that -there Is a penalty at
tached to failure to mark goods acco ding
to the letter of the rule and they aver that
this penalty is excessive and harsh.
I se of Initials Mot Bad.
"Tho subject was on the docket at the
last meeting of the Western Classification
committee, but not in just the same shape,
for there was no penalty clause and the
discussion turned solely over the question
of the full name and Initials," says Com
missioner Guild of the Commercial club.
"We contended that the use of Initials
could not be attacked Justly because it
had not been shown that this was the
cause of any trouble or confusion of ship
ments and that no such confusion waa
likely to arise in the future, certainly not
with a freight agent at the receiving end,
of reasonable Intelligence.
"The rule was to go Into effect November
1, but fur some reason has not been enforced
until now. It srrPolflcally requires the full
name of the consignee and unless freight
weighing Inspectors are given some lee
way in the exercise of their Judgment a
liardshlp will be worked on Omaha ship
pers because of the ninny combinations of
long firm names to whom they ship.
"The Nebraska Slate commission will
have to pass on the matter, but no date
has been set for the hearing. In the mean
time there Is no way of evading or avoid
ing the rule.
Same aa Stencil Hule.
"The rule is tilie same as the old one re
garding the effacing old marks or itenclls,
but carriers have found that the cloth-lined
tags are not so desirable as those of paper
and Inspectors have therefore been In
structed to make an exception in this par
tluclar and to accept substantial paper tags
with a metal eyelet I understand from
agents of the roads that where consign
ments are being found defective in marking
they are notifying the shipper and giving
him a chance to remedy this Instead ot ac
cepting the shipment at once and adding
the penalty In the charges. I have made
inquiry at other Missouri river points and
find the rule being enforced there. It may
be added in this connection that although
no demands for exception to the rule re
quiring every single piece of freight to be
marked, have yet been made, yet it la ex
pected that some highly reasonable re
quests of this nature will be. Brick Is
now one of these exceptions, although the
contrary erroneous view la widely held."

Cross-Examination of Vice President
of 'Frisco Line Shows Owner

Island Company.
KANSAS CITY. Nov. 12.-C. R. Gray, sec
ond vice president of the St. Louis & Bin
Francisco railroad, finished his direct tes
timony In the Missouri rate case hearing
this morning and F. W. Uhmann began
tho cross-examining for the state. Mr. Gray
Is the third" witness to bo examined In as
many days, the testimony of a single rotd,
tho St. Louis & San Francisco, not having
yet been completed.
"I have never felt like I could more than
approximate the difference in the cost of
state and interstate passenger traffic, but
in the case of tho 'Frisco in Missouri, with
which I am ftmillar, it Is between 20 and
30 per cent, according to circumstances."
said Mr. Gray. Among the reasons he gav,
for tho difference was the greater haxard
of life, declaring statistics showed greater
loss of life in railroad accidents at the
stops and that the local '-alns, therefore,

asked by the state was whether or not the
flock Island owned the St. Louis & San
Francisco railroad, to which Mr. Gray re
plied it owned a majority of stock. After
a discussion among the attorneys It devel
oped there were threo Rock Island com
panies, namely, the Chicago, Rock Island
Railroad company of Iowa, the Chicago,
Rock Island & Paclflo Railway company
of Illinois, and Iowa, and the Rock Island
company of New Jersey. It was the
latter, said Mr. Gray, that controlled the
"Frisco.
