IN I. E. C. HEARING
Tariffs on Sugar, Fresh
Fruits and Vegetables
From California Points
To Arizona Terminals are
Under Examination
Existing freight rates on sugar, ap
ples and fresh fruits and vegetables
from California producing points to
Arizona terminals are undergoing at
tack in a hearing before Examiner II.
C. Keene of the interstate commerce
commission, in the federal court rooms.
Three separate petitions are involved.
Hearing of evidence supporting the
Arizona contention for lower cement
rates from California points and El
Paso wag concluded yesterday after
noon. Efforts to support claims of
excessive and discriminatory rates
were made by the Arizona corporation
commission, representing the state at
large, and Roland Johnson, rate expert
of the chamber of commerce, repre
senting Phoenix. Examiner Keene
gave the opposing factions until Oct.
23 to file briefs in - the cement rate
action. The case will then go before
the interstate commerce commission
for final action.
With the completion of the cement
case, the contesting parties Immediate
ly plunged into the fresh fruits and
vegetables petition. The petition for
lower rates on apples was taken up
jointly with the other, because it was
so closely related to it.
Voluminous statistics were intro
duced by the complainants, the Ari
zona corporation commission and the
Phoenix chamber of commerce, to
show that rates from California,
Washington, Oregon, Montana and
Utah to Arizona terminals were ex
cessive on fresh fruits and vegetables
and apples. s
Mr. Johnson, for the chamber of
commerce, introduced a series of nine
tariff tables into evidence to back up
his claim of excessive and discrimina
tory rates to Phoenix.
Among other statistics offered was
a series of rate sheets comparing
earnings per mile within Arizona and
other southwestern states on apple and
vegetable shipments. These sheets
showed that earnings within Arizona
surpassed those of any other state of
the section, in some instances by as
much as 35 to 40 per cent.
Figures were also introduced to
show a discriminatory rate to Phoenix
as compared with points in other
states, especially those in Utah, Ne
vada and Idaho.
Hauls over the Rocky mountains of
even greater distance than to Phoenix
were favored by a lesser rate than
hauls to Phoenix,, where few grades
are encountered, it was contended.
Attempts to introduce these taritt
sheets into evidence were strongly ob
jected to by representatives of rail-
boot with am
A Match of international importance
will be waged on the mat at Tally's
open-air arena Friday night when Sam
Cla.pham will defend his title as light
heavyweight champion of England
against Pete Saucr of Phoenix, aspi
rant to the world's light heavyweight
title. Two 4-round boxing matches
are also included on the program,
which will get under way at 8:30
o'clock.
A victory for Sauer on this occasion
will mean more to him in the profes
sional wrestling world than anything
he has heretofore accomplished. His
victory in the first meeting between
the pair is looked upon in wrestling1
circles as more or less of a fluke, se
cured by a chance hold that brought
injury to the English tit'eho'der-and
not really based upon merit.
Fans and promoters alike hope to
see a match to the finish on this occa
sion, with the winner securing two
falls. Of course, injuries are likely
in any contest of this nature which
will make one or the,other of the con
testants unfit for further action. Both
wrestlers have expressed the desire
to see a decision based upon merit and
a victory due to an injury ca.n hardly
be called one of merit.
Clapham is recognized throughout
the country as one of the greatest men
of his weight in the game. His long
experience makes . him a da-ngerous
opponent all the time and his
knowledge of the different styles of
grappling will keep, a less experienced
man in hot water every minute.
Sam was a training partner in the
iate Frank Gotch stables when the
Iowan was holder of the world's heavy
weight honors. Sam considers Gotch
the greatest wrestler of all times and
his experience with the master was an
invaluable asset to him. Later, Clap
ham helped train George Hacken
schmidt for his titular match with
Gotch. Sam has aiao worked ""with
Mahmout, Zbyszko, Stecher, Caddock
and other stars of the mat game. His
met work was considered of sufficient
calibre by eastern sport critics to war
rant a match with Earl Caddock, at the
time he was world's champion for the
highest honors. Clapham was de
feated in that match after one hour
and 28 minutes of wrestling.
Leo Alexander, former world's light
heavyweight champion, is also num
bered among Clapham's victims. Sam
downed the ex-king of the 175-pound-
ers in less than 30 minutes of hard
work, the match being described by
sport writers as one of the fastest and
most gruelling ever waged in Chicago.
Sauer doesn't believe that Clapham's
performances will be of any value to
him when he gets in the ring Friday
night, however.
"Past achievements mean nothing in
my young life," Pete declared last
roads Involved. Objections were over
ruled by Examiner Keene, however.
A special night session was held last
night in an effort to complete the cases
by this afternoon. The sugar rate case
will next be considered, which will end
the hearings in this city.
PIONEER 'OF STATE -ANSWERS
LAST GALL
The board of state institutions has
been notified that Richard McArdle
has died at the Pioneers Home at
Prescott. McArdle was more than 70
years of age at the time of his death,
and was admitted to the home from
Cochise county.
He had come into Arizona in 1876,
and has spent almost all his active
years in prospecting. He lived in
Tombstone when that camp was at the
hey-day of its prosperity and fame,
and at Charlestpn, a few miles from
Tombstone. Charleston will be re
membered as the "Wolfville," of the
Alfred Henry Lewis stories, "Wolf
ville Days." McArdle also spent much
time in the Huaohuca mountains, Co
chise county, and in prospecting along
the Colorado rive. He had also .worked
near Phoenix when he first came to
the state.
Funeral arrangements have not
been made.
evening. "True, . Clapham's record is
onejof which he might well be proud.
but I'm not wrestling his record; I'm
wrestling him. He'll have to live up
to his advance reputation and then
some if he hopes to emerge a victor
Friday night."
Although a record breaking advance
sale "has been recorded, there are
plenty of choice seats still to be had.
Tickets 'will remain on sale at the
down town agency, the Doyle Cigar
store, until 7 o'clock Friday night, at
which hour the doors of the arena will
open. Tickets will go on sale at the
arena at that hour.
