WASHINGTON, ,Aug. 4. Reductions in
express rates which will cost the com
panies fully $8,006.(100 a year, approxi
mately 16 per cent of their gross revenue,
were ordered by the interstate Coniraereo
commission to become effective on of
before October ii, 1913. Notable reforms
lu practices also were ordered. Tho most
important change prescribed by tho order
is by way of modification of thu present
graduated scale of parcel rates.
One hundred pound rates for short -distances,
either have been left unchanged
or slightly reduced; for longer distances
they have been lowered; for fifty pounds
or less, .all rates have been practically
reduced. - For packages of more than
four pounds going more than !00 miles
and less than 2,000 the new oxpress rates
are generally lower than tho parcel post
rat?s; for more than 3,000 miles the rates
are practically the same.
Comntlaston Affirms Findings.
The report and order of the commis
sion prepared by Commissioner John R.
Marble are the affirmation of the find
ing of Commissioner Lane, now secre
tary of the interior. It prescribed a so
called block system, dividing the United
States Into &M blocks, averaging 2,500
square miles as originally proposed by
Sir. Lane. The 000,003 different rates
now published by the express companies
wilt be reduced 'to lesB than 600,000 and
the Interstate Commerce commission be
lieves tho system points the way to a
solution of the existing mare of freight
rates.
Test Case to-Be Made.
The general impression in official quar
ters Is that the express companies will
attemp.t to test by legal means the con
stitutionality of the commltslon's order.
The reoulrtmcnt of .'the order 'of June 8,
HQ. that label shall be(attached to enoh
parcel, is modified- the extent that Jn
ease, of shipments, of perishable property,
consisting of two or more packages, tho
label need bo attached to only one pack
age. The express companies had filed state
ments Indicating the loss of revenue
under the proposed rates would bo In
tolerable and argued strenuously that the
establishment of the parcel post had de
prited them of quite 30 per cent of the
revenue they formally received from par
cels of eleven pounds or less. They con
tended that the express business could
not survive tho losses from business
sources.
The basis of the classification pre
scribed by. the' commission Is that all
articles of merchandise of ordinary value
trq to be carried at first class or ordi
nary merchandise rates. Articles of food
and drink, with a few 'exceptions are
second class and are to be carried at 75
per cent of the first class rates.
The rates for newspapers and period
icals, as well as for bread and such
articles for which specially low rates now
are charged, are substantially the same
as the present rates.
A permanent committee has been ap
pointed to revise the routes of express
carriers to eliminate the circuitous
routes which ate now a cause of con
llderable complaint on the part of ship
per's. The order Is for two years only. That
period will give abundant opportunity for
a test of these rates under various condi
tions amounting to a normal average. In
no other way can the absolutely property
rate basis for repsondents be finally de
termined. Respondents are also at lib
rrty at any time to bring forward new
(acts as a basis for a petition for modi
Ucatlon of this or any other order.

Mulhall Offensive
to Michigan Senator
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4. Senator Town
send of Michigan today flatly dented
Mulhajl's testimony that he had talked
with htm and characterized Mulhall as a
self-acknowledged eorruptlonlst.
Emmory and Mulhall, when Townsend
was a member of tho house, came to
gether to his office and Mulhall made an
argument about labor legislation..
"When he paused I asked him If he
was through and when he said 'yes,' I
said, 'well, this Is my busy day, you'll
have to excuse me.' Therefore, it Is an
unqualified falsehood when he says he
talked with me confidentially," said
Senator Townsend to the senate lobby
committee.
The senator went through the record
and picking out the letters In which his
name appeared, denied In detail Mul
hall's testimony that he had conferred
with him.
"This man was personally offensive to
me," said the senator in conclusion,
"therefore I could not fall to remember
If he hfid talked to me confidentially."

SHOTS FIRED .AT MALONEY
Chief of Detectives Has-KaMrow Es
cape from Unknown Assailant.
POSSIBLE CLEW IN A LETTER'
i. ii ii
Black Hand Missive Written la Dls
Kdtaed Hand and In Misspelled
Words Thought to Be an
Explanation.
ka unidentified assailant tried to kill
-nlef of Detectives Steve Moloney after
he arrived Monday morning at his office.
Two shot from a .38 caliber revolver
were fired directly at hlra from tho
back of a string of box cars about
seventy-five feet rrom the window of his
office at the police .station.
Maloney heard the shots but paid no
attention to them until a little later
he went out into the yard of tho station
and saw two holes from the bullets im
bedded in the window sill near his desk.
They were about an. Inch apart and there
Is every Indication that they were fired
by one acquainted with the use of pistols.
Immediately after the shots were
heard two policemen rushed out of the
building in the direction from which the
iound emanated, but there was no one
In sight. It was not, however, until the
markings of the bullets were discovered,
that It was realized they were meant for
the chief. ,
Maoney has not the remotest Idea who
"has It In for him," unless It could be the
writer of a note which he discovered Fri
day afternoon lying on his aesk. It had
likely been placed there while he was
away at lunch. The message, on a dirty
. piece of wrapping paper, had been wrlt
jten by a person evidently attempting to
uiBguise us source wun cruae penman
ship and misspelled words.. It follows:
"1 Aug 1913 Yore time has came I have
follered you long time but nevcro get a
chance to get you wher I want you.
"Look out for me I mene bulsness.
"VENOBNCK."
In tho lower right-hand corner of the
sheet a crude dagger with dripping point
had been penciled. Chief Maloney seems
to regard the whole matter as a joke
and was little disturbed over it.
"The chances are that some Third ward
coke fiend got an overdose of the drug
arid is trying to take it out on me. Any
way, he missed me and I'm here, so 1
should worry," he laughingly said.
Sophias Neble, Jr., assistant county at
torney, who entered the building Imme
diately before the shooting, rushed to
the door and caught a glimpse of a
short, heavy-set Individual, clad In a
blue wilt, running up the alley on the
side of the station, between Eleventh
and Twelfth streets. Nebel says he had.
tomethlng clutched In his right hand,
but whether It was a revolver he coula
not say.

jThe Bubble
Charges Against
the Democrats ip
the Mulhall Case
WASHINGTON, Aug. .-Charges that
the democrats of the senate lobby com
mittee havo prejudiced the case made out
by Martin M.- Mulhall against the Na
tional Association of Manufacturers with
out hearing the other side were made to
day by fdrmer Representative James E.
Watson of Indiana, who1 referred In a let
ter to tho committee, to published state
ments by Chairman Overman and Sena
tors Reed and Walsh. He declined to
appear before the committee, saying that
il would be useless.
"I much prejer," said Watson, "to take
my case to another court."
Robert 'M.cCarter, attorney for tho Na
tional Association of Manufacturers, faced
the committee with an objection to the
same statements,
Chairman Ovormart and Senator Reed
declared there was nothing In the Inter
view which could be taken as Indicating
that they had prejudged the case.
Cold Stare to Put
Masher to Route
CHICAGO, Aug. 4. Hatpins, clubs or
whistles, like the Boston women use, are
not necessary to squelch mashers a look
. will do It This Is the opinion expressed
I today by policewomen at two Chicago
I beaches. One substantial, w,lde-eyed look,
! with a touch of scorn In It, will send the
boldest flirt about his business, they say,
"All you have to do when a man speaks
to you Insultingly Is to look at him and
he turns and runs," said Officer Mary
Boyd. "I sometimes carry a little billy,
but its for dogs; men are scared to death
of me.
"Look a man over from hat to shoes
and from shoes to hat and ho will van
ish," is the advico of Policewoman
Emma Neukom. "Ive been all over the
world and I never needed any weapons
but my eyes. There are other nations,
too. I sometimes start talking In French
or Greek to mashers and they always run
away. But a look Is the best"

George P. .Semis Asks, Injunction, ad
Temporary Order IssueST
SAYS LAW IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Dahlmnn to On Restrained' from Is
ulna- n Call for Election and
Ure from Keeping: Money oC
the Gna Company,
Injunction proceedings to provent Elec
tion Commissioner Harley G. Moorhead
from holding the gas election scheduled
for August 19 was started Monday In dis
trict court by George p. Bemls, who says
he Is acting within his rights as a voter
and taxpayer. A temporary restraining
order was signed by Judge English, but
Judge Troup will preside at the bearing,
which was set for August 6.
Attorneys for Mr. Bemls base their suit
on .the ground that the act of the legisla
ture authorizing the city council to accept
an annual royalty In lieu of occupation,
and llcenso taxns Is unconstitutional.
"I am not enjoined from continuing
preparations for the election," said' Elec
tion Commissioner Moorhead, "and 'I am
going ahead just the same. If tho courts
decide the election shall not be held I will
obey tho order."
Mayor Dahlman also Is restrained -from
Issuing a call for the election and Treas
urer Ure f i oin holding the $10,000 which
tho gas company put up to pay the ex
penses ot tho election.
Sweeping charges of unconstitutionality
are, made In the petition and the city or
dinance Is asserted to be "special legisla
tion." Tho ordinance Is alleged to be' un
intelligible and not capable of interpreta
tion. The provision that the gas company
shall pay the expenses of the election Is
alleged to violate the state law providing
that a corporation cannot pay money tor
political purposes.
Taxes Mlttlit Ue Uniform.
The act of the legislature providing
that the city may accept a royalty In
place of occupation tax Is alleged to
violate tho provisions of the constitution,
which say the legislature has no power
to release a corporation from paying Its
share of taxes and that taxes must be
uniform with respect to tho same kinds
of property.
It Is alleged that If a decree Is entered
In tho suit now pending in federal court
as provided In tho ordinance It would
make the city admit that the gas plant
Is worth more than $3,500,000, and, hence,
that $1 gas could not bo produced at a
profit and would be confiscatory. There
fore, It Is alleged, the ordinance would be
void and the city would not get $1 gas.
Because other public service corpora
tions are paying occupation taxes ot S
per pent, the petition asserts, the gas
ordinance would grant special Immunity
and the gas company would be released
from paymento aggregating more than
$1,000,000 In twenty-five years.
Attorneys for Mr. Bemls are D. C. Pat
terson and Raymond Coffey.

The ambassador, in tho ordinary prac

exclusive of Sundays, which accounts
for tho fixing of tho dato of October 14
in tho announcement. In the meantime)
no appointment can be made, as a
vacancy will not exist until that date.
Consequently the American embassy In)
Mexico will remain in charge ot Secre

announcement ot policy toward Mexico
by President Wilson. No intimation oC
what the announcement would be waa

When the ambassador waa recalled!
from Mexico City less than a month ago
for consultation, as the official announce
