and the defendants In the case of the Pa
cific Elevator company against the Chi
cago, Milwaukee ft St. Paul Railway com
pany and the Minneapolis Bt.-Louis Rail

'The commission should not and wilt

rate that is lower than that which the
commission would prescribe as reasonable.
It is not sufficient that a shipper who Is

to her former horrtf on Butler street. The

where 'he registered as Thomas Harvey. He
was held for safe keeping.
It wa learned later that Harvey, grief
stricken over his wife's death, had left
the house In the afternoon "and did not
return until midnight, when the under
takers were In the house preparing the
body for burial. According to the police,
Harvey acted like a wild man. Grabbing
piece of wood from the kitchen he
drove everyone from the house. Then he
placed a clfrarette In the dead woman's
mouth and, taking the body In his arms,
started out of the house. He put the
corpse in the front doorway while he
returned to the house and procured a
bottle of whiskey. He tried to force some

CHICAGO, Jan. 11. Roberta Pe Janon,
the Philadelphia heiress who was arrested
here yesterday with Frederick Cohen, the
waiter, with whom she eloped on Decem
ber 29. said todsy that If court proceedings
were begun against Cohen she would be his
chief defender. She was ernphstlo In her
declarations that the elopment was all her
fault and Cohen was In no way to blnme.
"Mr. Cohen Is In the right," she said,
when told the announcement that Cohen
would be prosecuted, had been made in
Philadelphia.
"It was I who persuaded him to leave
Philadelphia; It was he who refused; It
was he who asked me, day after day, to
return io my grandfather, and It was he
who cared for mo. If they start court
action against Fred, I w-lll certainly go to
his defense. He has done nothing wrong."
Living as father and daughter Mips de
Janon and Cohen were found and ar
rested here late yesterday.
They were discovered by detectives In
a rooming house at CK West Superior street,
on the north side ot the city. When police
men entered the house. Miss Pe Janon
was playing with Her pet dog. which she
took with her In her sensational disap
pearance with Cohen, who is 4t years old
and a married' man. ' Cohen was seated In
an adjoining room reading. t
All three were taken to the Chicago
avenue police station the frightened girl,
her dog and Cohen, the waiter at first
protesting against arrest. Jle soon ad
mitted his identity; however, and Miss De
Janon, sobbing" bitterly, pleaded with the
authorities to restore her to her famliv.
Both Without Funds.
Cohen and Miss Pe Janon arrived here
Thursday and rented a room In a boarding
house, owned by Mrs. Frank Perrln. Cohen
Introduced the girl as his daughter Alice.
He identified himself as Robert King aud
said he was a ' barber and that he had
Just arrived-from Montreal In search of
work.
The girl, when questioned by the officers
after she had admitted her identity, stated
she and Cohen had reached Chicago with
but $1.00 between them and that she gave
Cohen a bracelet and necklace, to get
money to live on. Their apprehension fol
lowed a report to the police In the after
noon by Mrs. perrln, who had seen pic
tures of the eloping pair In the news
papers and suspected that her new board
ers were the missings Philadelphia elopers.
Cohen stated he . would waive extradition
proceedings and the Philadelphia police
were notified to come to Chicago for the
prisoner.
Cohen denied any harm had cotne to
Miss Pe Janon since she fled with him
from her home. The elopers went to New
York city December 29,' remaining In New
York, only a few hours. They boarded
a train for Montreal. In Montreal they
took a train for St. Johns, N. B., where
they boarded a steamer for England. At
Halifax they abandoned the sea voyage
and returned to Boston by , rail. From
Boston they came to Chicago, convinced
no one had any Idea of their whereabouts.
When aslced by the police If she still held
a desire to ,kll herself, the penitent Miss
Po Jantfri crfed tatterly and said between
her sdbs: ,-
"No, 1. don). 'want to die now. I want
to go to Ne Vfrk to live with papa or
back to 'my grandfather in Philadelphia.
I will go to sclHpl',at ; Bryn Mawr or any
other 'place they, want to send . me. Oh,
I am so-glad -you have found me. I am
so glad,' I caii't ell you how glad I am.
I don't ;Waot te be a runaway any more."
Treated flrt AS'Danarhter.
' Cohn told the police he first met Miss
Pi- Janon at the Bellevue-Stratford last
October, when she came there to live with
her mother. A'tfcr' her ' mother died, he
said. Miss Pe 'Janon came to see him
frequently asking for advice. She seemed
tc be melancholy.and told him she did not
want to go awa to school. On December
10, Cohen stated,' Miss Pe Janon asked
him to go with her. After his letter to
her of December 14, she met him again
and arranged to meet .him again December
ST. On this occasion she wept and he
consented. On Pecember 29, she bought a
oheap brown dress, which hung just be
low her knees and some other clothing
She let down her hair and hung it in two
braids to make herself look younger and
he boarded a train for New York with
her. Everywhere they went, he says they
read of their escapade In the newspapers
"I am sorry for what I have done, "said
Cohen, but her pleadings were Irresistible,
and I swear I have not harmed the child."

LAND AGHEKMK.NT FAVOllS STATE
South Djtkota Commissioner Invest!
urates Conditions In Forest Reserve.
PIERRE, K. P., Jan. 11. (Special. Instate
Land Commissioner Pokken has returned
from his trip to Washington, where he
went to look after the rights of the state
in regard to the state school lands In the
Black Hills forest reserve. He says the
agreement reached between the representa
tives of the state and the government offi
cials was even more favorable in fact to
the state than they were shown to be In
the report of the conference sent out from
Washington. The government departments
acknowledged the rights of the state and
provided the manner of selecting lieu lands
by the state to take the place of the lands
scattered over the reserve. While the right
of the state to make selections for lands
which liave been lost through home stead
filings on the Btate lands by squatters who
went on the lands prior to -survey are held
in abeyance, to be settled by further action
all other lands are conceded aa belonging
to the state. They will be allowed to select
the amount of land contained In sections
16 and 36 on the reserve. The selection
may be made in one or two solid tracts or
In smaller tracts of not less than a sec
tion. It Is the dvlre of the State depart
ment to make the selection In as compact
a tract or tracts as possible, and one the
edge of the forest reserve if possible. This
will allow the selections to bs set out of
the forest reserve entirely, and give the
state complete control without In any way
Interfering with the government forest
service. While the State department will
place the selections ll In one tract if It
can be practically arranged,. It will be
cut Into smalUr tracts if the right kind
of selections cannot be made In the one
tract. It Is expected that the whole mattei
will be cleared up early the coming sum
mer and th vexing factor of the control of
state lands within the forest .reserve be
eliminated.

me after I had used Postum about two
weeks long enough to get the coffee

than they have been for years."
