How Washington 31 ay Itegulate
Transcontinental Hates.
Harriman Merger Inrestigation
Promises Results.
TO REDUCE SCHEDULES
If Earnings Are in Excess of 10
Per Cent on Cost of Itoad
The GoTernment May Step in
and Fix Lower Hates.
Washington, Xov. 14. Under pro
vision in the charter granted by con
gress to the Union Pacific company in
1S63. it is found the government re
ceived the most sweepingauthority over
rates and charges which the system
may make. The provision has been
investigated by legal authority since
the interstate commerce commission
was given the task of investigating- the
Harriman system and the conclusion
is that it is still enforceable, never ha
Mig been repealed or otherwise nulli
fied in the various reorganizations of
the Union Pacific properties. The law
yers who have been working on the
matter are confident that this proposi
tion is the weapon needed by the gov
ernment in the event of a fight with
the great combination of roads. The
provision follows:
"Whenever it appears that the net
earnings of the entire road and tele
graph, Including the amount allowed
for services rendered the United States
after deducting nil expenditures, in
cluding repairs and the furnishing,
running and managing of said road,
shall exceed 10 per cent per annum
upon its cost, exclusive of the 5 per
centum to be paid the United States,
congress may reduce the rates of fare
thereon if unreasonable in amount and
may fix and establish the same by
law."
Vnlon Pacific's Karnins.
It is explained by the lawyer who
first turned up this provision and pre
sented it as the basis of action by the
commission, that the Union Pacific
undoubtedly is earning- far in excess of
10 per cent a year "upon its cost,"
which has nothing to do . with its
present capitalization. He urges that
with its capitalization watered as some
other roads in the country are, its
common .stock is now upon 10 per cent
basis anil its surplus is very large.
Therefore, he declares, the' power of
congress to prescribe rates has become
operative and needs only a valuation
of its earnings to demonstrate that it

iND SlfSTEM,mSOHIBRi;B
Catarrh is not merely an inflammation of the tissues of the head and'
throat, as the symptoms cf ringing- noises la the ears, mucous dropping back
into the throat, continual hawking and spitting, etc., would seem to indi
cate ; it is a blood disease ia which the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involved. Catarrh is due to the presence of an excess
of uric acid ia the blood. The Liver, Kidneys and Bowels frequently be
come torpid and dull ia their action and instead of carrying- off the refuse
nd waste of the body, leave it to sour and form uric acid in the S3rstem.'
tThis is taken up by the blood and through its circulation distributed to all
parts of the system. These impurities ia the blood irritate and inflame
the different membranes and tissues of the body, and the contracting
of a cold will start the secretions and other disgusting and disagreeable
symptoms of Catarrh. As the blood goes to all parts of the body the ca-j
tarrhal poison affects all part3 of the system. The head has a tight, full
feeling, nose continually stopped up, pains above the eyes, slight fevers
comes and goes, the stomach is upset and the entire system disordered and

The interstate commerce commis
sion's inquiry into the "Harriman
group" originated in part from numer
ous complaints that Tailroad rates
from the Missouri, river n the coast
are excessive and in part with the dis
covery of the land frauds alony the
Union Pacific.
Control of One Affects AH.
It is pointed out that if the govern
ment can compel a reduction in rates
along the Union Pacific, the other
transcontinental lines must meet it
and thus the whole western section
would benefit. It was this idea that
originally instigated the movement
for investigation. The commission
has not yet formulated a plan for carrying-
on the work, and it is not at all
certain when it will have time to do it.
But there is a powerful pressure from
higher tip to have the work done. The
fact that Union Pacific is a Standard
Oi! interest and that the president is
just now preparing a fight on Standard
Oil all along the line, is supposed to
be largely responsible for the interest
in Union Pacific affairs.

do nothing more than temporarily relieve
the discomfort of the trouble. To curej
Catarrh permanently the blood must be'
thoroughly purified and the system cleansed1
cf all poisons, and at the same time!
strengthened and built up. Nothing equalsj
, S. S. S. for this purpose. It attacks the;
" disease at its head, goe3 down to the very!
bottom of the trouble and makes a complete
and lasting cure. S. S. S. removes every!
' particle of the catarrhal poison from the
blood, making this vital stream pure, fresh
and healthy. Then the inflamed mem
branes begin to heal, the head is loosened
and cleared, the hawking and spitting cease,

St. Marys Men Think Their
Cbances Are rirst Kate.
Tiie Washburn team last night lined
up for a little kicking practice. The
men an stiil eomewhat stiff from the
effect3 of last Saturday's game and
Coach Weede did not deem it advisable
to give he men any hard work. All
the ira 'tice consisted in booting- the
ball a fow times. Not even signal
practice was . indulged" in. The team
was verted up to a, very high degree
latt Stttrday and it is not thought to

be a very good plan to start the men
in as hard training at the beginning of
the week as was necessary last week.
However, Coach Weede expects to
have his men in fine shape for the
game Saturday and will have them
so that they will play the game with
speed and will give St. Mary's the
hardest game they have had this year.
Coach Quigley is giving his men the
regular hard daily practice. He ex
pects to have the fastest team work
which has been seen in Topeka this
year. The game Monday with the
Kansas City Vets was a good practice
game for his bunch and will do much
in getting the Catholics in the best
possible condition for the game against
Washburn.
Captain George Hughes, Weight 159.
Captain Hughes and Walsh, two of
the best men on the Kt. Alary s team.
saw the Kansas game last Saturday
and after the game stated that they
felt that they had a good chance
against Washburn and said that it
would not surprise them in the least
to win.
The St. Mary's team has played
great ball this season. They have
played a large number of games and
have met w ith but one defeat. Kansas
university in the early part of the sea
son won from them by a score of 18
to 0. St. Mary's was not nearly as
strong at that time as they are now
and another game between the two
might be attended by different re
sults. Thev defeated Fairmount by a
score of 6 to 0. On this account Wash
burn is very anxious to defeat the
Catholics and thus in a measure re
trieve for the reverses which they re
ceived at the hands of Fairmount. The
St. Mary's second team which is near
ly as fast as the first team holds the
season's record for the highest score
They won from the team from St.
John's Military school by a score of 77
to 6. Other scores made by the Cath
olics have been very high.
As yet not much can be learned in
regard to the strength of Washburn
when thev line up against Quigley's
men next Saturady. The present indi
cations seem to favor a good strong
team for the game Saturday. It would
not be surprising, however, to see sev
eral of the best men unable to play and
consequently Washburn might be
caught in a crippled condition such as
they were when Fairmount played
here. If a few of the men are out St.
Mary's ought to be able to give Wash
barn the hardest rub of the season.
Thev may do something anyhow. With

WOMEN TENNIS PLAYKilS. -
American Not Game Competitors Are
Graded After English Custom.
New York, Xov. 14. Following the Knsj
lish custom that h.is been in vogue abroad
for many years, Uie woman lawn Tennis
players of th;s country will be ranked
this year for t!;e lirst time.
The first intimation that ranking of
women wsis at ail thought of was in a
letter which Mrs. B;irger-Va llach re
ceived from A. L. Hofikins of Philadelphia,
the chairman of ' t he committee. The
plan that was outlined was to give the
places and allot the handicaps according
to the performances in the three most
Important tournaments of the season
the national championship at Philadelphia,
tile Longwood open tournament of Bos-ton
and the tristate championship at Cincin
nati. In outlining her selections Mrs. Barger
Wallach said that Miss May Sutton, ex
national champion of the United States
and England, stood first on her list he
cause of the marvelous pronr-iency which
the young California girl had demon
strated. Miss Helen iiomans of the West
Side Lawn Tennis club and winner of
the national championship honors this
season, is placed second. The third place
will go to Miss Sutton, while the fourth
place would fail to either Miss Evelyn
Sears of Boston or herself, ac-oordine to
the record of several scores. This would
fill the honor list of the , first five, while
close with' them would come Miss
Neeley of ' Tiicago, Miss Coffin of Staten
Island ant! others . ' - -
NEBRASKA STILL HOPEFUL.
Thinks CornIuiskCi-9 Can Give
Maroons a Close Game.
Lincoln. Tveb., Nov. 14. Although the
Cornhuwkers took things easy in their
game Saturday with Oreighton, being
satisfied with a low score, ail loafing will
be cut out of Coach Koster's curriculum
tomorrow when the practice begins for
the coming games with Kansas ana t in
cago. Potter will make the work as light
as he dares in getting ready for Kansas,
but the JayhaWkers have a heavy, formid
able eleven, in spite of recent reverses,
and the Nebraska coach expects to begin
at once to point his pupils for their
clashes with the Jayhawkers and also the
Maroons.
In view of Chicago's defeat by the
Gophers, the Xebraska coach thinks the
Cornhuskers will surely play the Maroons
a close game, and they will be sorely dis
appointed if their confidence proves mis
placed. Meanwhile secret practice is to
be the daily program for the next two
weeks.

Rhodes of Kansas. who .-fchieved a reputa

wit h Joe Walcott, is the most recently

men who might be available.
Lispatches were sent to him yesterday
by Morris Ievy, but up to a late hour
last night no reply had been received. If
Rhodes accepts he will have to do so in
a hurry, ?s it would take him several
days to make the trii to California and
he would need some time to get into con

on the part of the promoters there is a

Rouse, coming as it does when so mnry
