Arounii police headquarters thin is In terpreted to mean that hereafter the chief himself, and not Captain Dlxon, will direct the operations of the squad. FRICTION IN' THE MKHVICK Chief Galloway's order, coming only a day after Captain Dlxon's assign ments for Junu had been bulletined, and overruling Dlxon's arrangi ments in numerous Instances, naturally >re ated considerable discussion among tho men connected with the depart in, 'lit. It was said openly that tho new or der Will result in making Captain Dlxon merely an official figurehead, with few duties more Important than erlng telephone calls, and it was predicted that tho order possibly pre sages tiie transference of Dlxon to the easi side station and the recall of Captain Lenbausen from tho east side to headquarters. Captain Dlxon himself declined to speak of tho matter or to discuss th» friction said to exist between himself an.i the department's head. His friends were not so reticent. It seemed, however, to be generally admitted that the changes ordered will have the ef- I i t of lessening official discord, whether Dixon goes from First street or remains there. Chief Galloway said last night that tin order had been issued "for the good of the- s. rvieo."

INJUNCTION HALTS A GENERAL RAISE IN FREIGHT RATES Government Charges 25 Roads with Conspiracy and Vio lating Anti-Trust Law COMPLAINT IS STARTLING Temporary Order Blocks Increase Which Was to Have Been Effective at Midnight FAssociated Press! HANNIBAL, Mo., May Twenty flvo western railroads were tem porarily restrained tonight by United States District Judge Dyer from enforcing or making a general advance In Interstate freight rates. The injunction was granted on a pe tition filed by the government on the allegation that the advances In rates were arrived at by the defendants .by agreement in violation of the Sherman anti-trust act. The petition says that unless such a restraining order were issued the in creases would become effective at mid night tonight, to the grave injury of tho people of the United States. The petition on which the injunc tion was issued was presented to Judge Dyer by Edward P. Grosvenor of Washington, special assistant to the attorney genera], and by Frederick M. Judson of St. Louis, acting as special counsel. It was signed by George W. Wickersham, attorney general; Wil liam S. Kenyon, assistant to the at torney general, and Charles A. Houts, United States district attorney. The roads restrained are: Missouri Pacific. Chicago & Northwestern. Chicago, Burlington & Qulney. Chicago, Hock Island & Pacific. Wabaah.

The restraining order declared it was issued upon complaint of counsel, for the government that they would at once file a certificate under the act of February 11. 1903, providing for a speedy termination of the issues. CONSPIRACY CIIAKGKD The title of the suit is "The United States, complainant, vs. the Twenty five Defendants, restrained In injunc- It alleges "unlawful combination and C petition says the railroads, sen- The petition says the railroads, gen erally speaking, are the only ones for the transportation of freight and pas senger traffic for the states of Missouri, lowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, North Dakota, Wyom ing and parts of Montana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois and Tennessee. Referring to the unlawful combina tions and conspiracy alleged, the peti tion says: _»._* "But for the conspiracy, understand ings and agreements between the dif ferent railroads, the defendants would have continued in the said interstate trade and commerce, in competition with each other, as to rates and charges to be collected for the interstate trans portation of freight and passengers, and as the facilities and advantages to be offered to the traveling public and to shippers of commodities in inter state commerce, and would now be competing in said Interstate transporta tion, trade and commerce." UKUWFUL AGKEKMEXT MADE ' The second part of the petition states that on December 6, 1906, the defend ants, with the exception of live road 3 named below, not content with the usual rates and charges for which they were accustomed to carry freight, but intending to monopolize the transpor tation, traffic, trade and commerce be tween the different states, "did com bine, conspire, confederate and unlaw fully agre to organize und become members in the Western Trunk Line committee, with the object of using said trunk line ns a means of suppress ing all competition between said de fendants, in the said interstate trans portation, trade and commerce." Continuing, the petition says that since the date mentioined, the Western Trunk Line committee, unincorporated, with headquarters in Chicago, is the Instrument by means of which freight rates have been fixed, and that the charges now being imposed are the same by all the defendants and are so made by agreement. METUODS OF FIXIXO HATES The following is the method by which the petition alleges rates are fixorl by the Western Trunk Line com mittee: "Bach of the defendants is a member of the Western Trunk Line committee. There is a freight committee composed of the freight traffic managers or gen eral freight agents' of each of the de fendants. This committee meets once every month. Whenever any defend ant contemplates a change in any rates, rules or regulations, the officer or official representing such defendant on such committee suggests such change to the chairman of the com mittee, who then dockets the same for consideration and discussion at the next meeting of thn freight committee. At that mooting the matter Is brought up for consideration. If all agree, the proposed change is made by all roads, the defendants herein. Unless there is a unanimous agreement, the sugges tion Is rejected and no road adopts the proposed change of rates." The petition says there is an agree ment between the defendants to the efleel that no rates will lie advanced or r. iin. .'.i except with the concurrence Qf tin- entire body, with a ilmultaneoui advance or reduction by all the others agreed upon at a meeting of the freight committee.

I CREW OF TERRA NOVA 1500 METAL MEN DROP TOOLS TODAY Mpte to Strike for $4 a Day Wage and Eight-Hour Work ing Day The union machinists, patternmakers and molders voted at meetings held in the Union Labor temple last night to strike this morning. A letter from the Metal Trades council renewing a request for a conference with repre sentatives of the Merchants and Man ufacturers association was sent to that organization yesterday afternoon and a request made that the Merchants and Manufacturers association com- municate with the metal workers at their meeting last night. The merchants and manufacturers held a meeting in the Wilcox building and decided that there was no reason for BUch a conference and failed to communicate with tht metal workers. After discussing conditions in the various shops and listening to ad dresses from prominent union men from San Francisco and Chicago the three organizations allied with the Metal Trades council voted unani mously to strike this morning. The strike will involve about 1500 men. None of them will go to work this morning. Their demands are for a minimum wage scale of $4 a day and an eight-hour working day. The offer of the Union Tool company of a nine hour day with ten-hour pay was re fused by the workers at the meetings last night. Besides the machinists, pattern makers and molders the strike will in volve the molders, iron founders, blacksmiths, boilermakers, brasswork ers and sheet metal workers. The Merchants and Manufacturers' association adopted the following res olution at its meeting: "Whereas, this city is confronted with industrial dis turbances and unjust demands have been made upon the employers, and whereas the Merchants and Manufac turers' association is pledged to the privileges of industrial freedom and open shops, therefore be it resolved by the Merchants and Manufacturers' association in mass meeting assembled that we reaffirm our declaration of principles as above stated and tender to the employers our hearty moral and if necessary our financial support." The speakers at the meeting of the merchants and manufacturers last night were C. H. Plurnmer, H. E. Huntington, H. W. O'Melveny, John G. Mott, F. J. Zeehandelaar, D. P. M. Little and H. Miller. Among the shops which will be af fected are the Union Iron works, the Baker Iron works and the Union Tool company. MAINE COLLEGE STUDENTS BAR PREXY FROM PROGRAM Seniors Threaten to Leave the Chapel If Request Is Ignored BAN6OR, Me., May 31.—Unprece dented action has been taken by the seniors of the University of Maine, who informally requested President. George Emery Fellows not to address them at the baccalaureate exercises in the chapel next Sunday night. The seniors, at a meeting Friday, in structed a committee to notify l'ro fessor Fellows to this effect, giving as a reason that as a Boston clergyman was to preach the sermon, "another address would make the program too long." The committee has reported that the president considered the seniors' re quest an insult and will speak without their approval if he cares to do so. The boys say if the president does speak at the services they will leave the chapel In a body. Friction has existed between the faculty and undergraduates for some time, and last spring the student body, with the exception of athletic teams, "struck" owing to the expulsion of some of their members.

LIEUTENANT CAMPBELL, FIRST MATE, DIRECTING LOADING OF SLOOP SCOTT READY TO SEEK SOUTH POLE Explorer to Use Auto with Spiked Tires in Dash Across the Snow Fields (Speclal to The Herald) LONDON, May 31.—Captain Scott's expedition to the south pole is attract ing more attention in England than any similar voyage of discovery in the past decade. Scott sails on his hazardous journey in the course of a tiu days and the work of loading his vessel, the Terra Nova, has already been completed under the direction of Lieutenant Campbell. Particular interest lias been aroused in the expedition by reason of the novel experiments Scott will make in at tempting the trip. He has had espe cially built for his dash over the ice an automobile with spike-rimmed wheels capable of traveling over ice or snow fields and weighing little more than the usual sledge. In this machine he expects to get within fifty or sixty miles of the pole and to make the bal ance of the Journey on snow-shoes. At one time he considered an aeroplane for use in the final dash, but finally gave it up after a few experiments at night. On the last les to the pole, after abandoning the ice auto, Scott will take provisions and medicines weigh ing less than ten pounds. AH the pro visions he will carry will be in the form of compressed food tablets. He will also take instruments especially constructed to give light weight. His total equipment will weigh only about one-eighth that which Commander Peary had with him when he reached the north pole. Scott is a celebrated explorer and Lieutenant Shackleton, who recently made an unsuccessful dash for the south pole, believes that thft captain's undertaking will be crowned with suc cess. Shackleton has delayed an ex pedition he had planned, pending the result of Scott's journey, INGENIOUS BOYS PERFECT A NEW WIRELESS SYSTEM U. S.

PROVISONS FOR VOYAGE TURNS TABLES ON WOMAN DETECTIVE Suspected Clerk Causes Arrest of Sleuth for Passing Coun terfeit Bill An amusing situation developed yes terday as a result of the bogus $10 bills which have been floated among Los Angeles merchants for several days. Mrs. Grace HJlderbrand, private detective, was thoroughly grilled by de tectives at central police headquarters, on suspicion of passing bad money. Mrs. Hildebrand is employed by the N. B. Harris detective agency and yes terday was directed to visit a drug store in South Broadway witli a marked $10 bill to see if a clerk who has been under suspicion for stealing could be tricked. The female detective made the purchase and tendered a $10 bill in payment. The clerk scrutinized the bill and, detaining the woman, tele phoned to police headquarters for de tectives. Mrs. Hildebrand was taken to police headquarters, and the bill was found to be one of the bogus kind which have been circulated in Los Angeles. .Mrs. Hildebrand was regarded as a counter feiter, and it was not until her em ployer, Harris, appeared and explained the situation that she was released. It seems that Harris has been work ing on the counterfeiting case and had one of the bills in his possession, Wnich he unwittingly gave to his employe to make the test case against the drug clerk. When all was explained Mrs. Hilde brand was released and Harris used the better part of a genuine $10 bill buying smokes and soda water for the detec tives. Secret Service Officer W. L. Hazen has a number of men working on the counterfeiting case, and all merchants have been warned as to their appear ance, which resulted in the suspected drug clerk trapping the detective in stead of being caught himself. The police believe the men who floated the counterfeit money have left Los Angeles, although reports at police headquarters show that many of the bills were circulated In the beach towns Sunday and Decoration day. Counterfeit $5 gold pieces are said to be plentiful also. As a result of the unusual flood of counterfeit money, several cashiers, it is said, who are not expert in detecting spurious coins have lost their positions in downtown business houses. One cashier stated yesterday he did not believe the spurious money had ever been presented to him direct by the criminal, but that in practically every instance it was tendered by men whom he knew to be "all right." This would indicate that the money has been scattered broadcast.

R.'S Criticism of egyptian rule stings english Great American Tells Britishers They Have Erred in Vital Policies 'KEEP ORDER OR GET OUT' Says Nation's Duty to Mankind Is to Stay and Meet Responsibilities LONDON, May 31.—Quito' unexpoct i edly today Theodore Roosevelt ■* delivered what is considered by Englishmen as a severe arraignment "I" the nation in its attitude toward Egypt. Something picturesque was looked for from the former president of tho United States, but in view of his ut terances in Egypt, in which he gave praise in full measure to the British government for the development that followed British rule there, it was not expected he would revert to that sub ject, especially to take England to task. But with a frankness that caused a. stir among those wiio had gathered In ancient Guild hall to witness the cere mony of conferring upon him the free dom of the city oi London Mr. Roose velt declared that while Kngland had given Egypt tlie best government in 2000 years, yet recent events, following tne assassination of Premier Boutroa Pasha, had shown that in certain vital points tlie British government had i rred and that England must re pair this error if sue wishtd to do her lull duty. lie called attention to the fact that England's object in Egypt was the es tablishment of order. "Either you have or you have not the right to remain in Egypt and es tablish and keep order. If you havo not the right and have not tlie desire to keep order, then by all means get out. But, if as I hope, you feel your duty to civilized mankind and your fealty lo your own great nation alike bid you .stay, then make the fact and the name agree and show you are ready to meet iv every deed the responsibility that i.i yours. "When a people treats assassination as the cornerstone of self government it forfeits all right to be treated as worthy of self government. Some na tion must govern Egypt and I hopo and believe the English nation will decide the duty is theirs." Mr. Roosevelt dwelt upon the baleful Influence of the Nationalist party In Egypt, which hail shown In connec tion with the murder of the premier that it was neither desirous nor capable of justice. Nor had England shown enough of its strength. "You have tried to do too much," he said, "in the interests of the Egyp tians themselves. Those who have to do with uncivilized peoples, especially fanatical peoples, must remember that iin such a situation as laces you in Egypt, weakness, timidity and senti mentality may cause infinitely mote harm than violence and injustice. Sentimentality is the most broken reed on which righteousness can lean." With reference to the Soudan Mr. Roosevelt said he felt as he did about the Panama canal. Although it might not pay, it was England's duty to stay there. In his opinion the Soudan would pay anyway. It was not worth while to belong to a big nation unless that nation was ready to shoulder a big task. He prefaced hia remarks on Egypt with the statement that he spoke as an unprejudiced outsider, as an Ameri can and as a real democrat, whose first duty was to war against violence, injustice and wrongdoing wherever found. He proffered his advice only In ac cordance with the principles on which he had acted as president in dealing with the Philippines, and declared that political conditions in Egypt were a grave menace to the British empire andi to civilization.
