6 inrc in of n SAY THEY WILL LET THE RAIL ROAD COMMISSION CONTINUE ALOXE MOTION FOE DELAY DENIED Much ta the Disgust of the Attor neys for the Duluth, MiHßflbe «fc North ern. The investigation of the iron ore rates Still hangs hre before the railroad and warehouse commission. Whether it wiU bo proceeded with when the proper time arrives this morning is somewhat of a question. The Duluth, Mlssube & North ern, through its attorneys yesterday afternoon, interposed another motion for a continuance, which motion was denied b> the commission. The attorneys there upon led the commission to understand tnat they would not attend the hearing fi'ither. However the commissi >n will reconvene at 9 o'clock. At the close of yesterday's session another hitch occurred. Near the close Attorney Murray for the road, submitted a motion for a continuance of the case for sixty days—the same motion which was made at the beginning of the case. After submitting his motion the eouu"!«:l stated that the defendant road had i'O more witnesses to examine at thit urns am. had exhausted all the evidence which It had at hand. It was therefore un.i'jle to proceed with the case and would need the time asked tor in which to further prepare its case. He stated that since the commission's rrder of the hearing the official and legal staff of the road had been diligently ;.i work preparing evi dence, but that they had been unable to pic].arc their whole case. Fifteen wit nesses and as many ex-haustive exhibits had been presented Mnce the heari.ng- be gan and the counsel intimated that double this amount of testimony was yet to come. IJ.^1 J.^ then produced length,' af fidavits from Chief Engineer Dressle und Epecial Engineer Abbott, of the road, to show that all their time and that of the engineer's force had been spent In the laborious campaign of preparation t>nd even this had failed of rounding up the Sinn total of evidence. COUNSEL MURRAY PROTESTS. Mr Muri.ty then directed an arguraciit to me commission in which he remark'"! that no complaint had ever been made of the exorbitant rates by any patron of the road. Still further he stated that tile commission was occupying the position of both prosecutor and jud^e and giowing Btill more fervent in his remarks said that the commission would be commit ting judicial murder by proceeding w f.n the case. Here Mr. Knox, of the commission, re minded Mr. Murray of an interpretation which the supreme court had place! O.i U.o duties of the commission, in which it had held these duties to be admin istrative and not judicial. Mr. Knov pro tested that the commission was not «l th:g as the prosecutor nor judge. Commissioner Becker called for <he Opinion of the commission's attorney, Mr. O'Bxien, as to the proper action regard ing the motion. Mr. O'Brien stated: "1 think most of the evidence introduced by tic railroad has been altogether un nect-£°ary ami that the case should be proceeded with." CONTIKTJANCE WAS DENIED. At the request of Chairman Ringdal tin* ro:nmission withdrew ami considered the motion. The result was a denial of the application for a continuance, with Commissioner Knox and Ringdal voting one way and Gen. Becker the other. Tr.i' counsel for the road excepted to the ruling and asked a ruling en their ex emption. Another wordy battle ensued, and after Gen. Becker's argument that the commission had adjourned until thi? morning at 9 o'clock and could not there f< rv consider any further motions pre vailed, the company withdraw. In yesterday's hearing witnesses were placed oh the stand to prove that the timber and other resources In St. Louis, Lake and Cook counties were not sufficient to Furnish a support for the Missabe load and that unless tha iron ore mines were there the road could not exist. The tritnesses stated that the timber of this section would, at the present rate, be exhausted in six or seven years. Other witnesses were presented to show that the cost of reproducing this road would on a cash basis be $2,9yi',827, r.nd on time, with contingencies added, $3, --691,388. William Smith. superintendent of engines and cars of the road, was the principal witness. He also stated that It would be necesary to expor.d j!"0,500 at a very early date for renewals of equip ment for the road. By his testimony it was shown that the mad is far behind its competitors in the matter of equioment. F. R. AlcQueen, superintendent for a contracting firm who had tne work of constructing the three ore docks for the Missabe company at Duluth in hand, testified that the toi.il value of the com pany.-; dock proper Is $1,956,633. lie stated that the life of these docks is about ten years. E. T. Abbott, of Minneapolis, was the next witness and he practically corrob orated the evidence of the former wit- Mr. Abbott stated that, the ordi nary lift' of a railroad, with steel rails of the quality on the Mis«abe road, Is from seven to eight years. He stated on cross-examination that it would he necessary to replace a road like that of the Missabe every ten or eleven years. Commissioner Knox was asked y< ster day as to the commission's real object in making the investigation of iron ore rate. He stated: "The real and only object the commis sion has In making tnis investigation is to ascertain whether the rates, a? have been held, are tot> high; if they are to reduce or attempt to reduce them." Mr. Knox further stated that the com mission had not officially looked into the case further than to satisfy themselves as to this object. "Whether or not the reduction of these rates would cause a reduction in the gross earnings of the roads and therefore a reduction in state receipts, is not the question at this time," said Mr. Knox; "what we want to find out first is whether the rates trc ox orbintant. If they are they should be reduced no matter what the result is.' It has been stated tnat a reduction of the rates would mean c-n increase in the earnings of the Rockefeller and Carnegie interests that are said to con trol all the mines on the range. A lo cal railroad man, In speaking on this subject yesterday, stated that there are numerous of the best mines owned by private individuals whose earnings vould likewise be increased by the reduction, if, for that matter, it would have the effect as above stated. J f has also been sug-grested that one re- Bult possible t:'? m a reduction of these rates would be the meai» 2* fa=ilitatii.g a more rapid development of the m:n^, as the owners would naturally be better equipped to improve their property with more mon^y at their command and that this process would benefit the entire etate. The subject has aroused no little dis cussion both ways among railroad cir cles, since the case began. liiichfieltl & Madison Eleetioa. • SPRINGFIELD. 111..

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.—The Mail and Express says: Out of the confused and contradictory reports regarding: the changed relations txisting between the Seaboard Air Line and Southern railway, one fact seems es tablished. The two lines are to be op erated in perfect harmony hereafter, so far as freight rates are concerned: All talk of a consolidation of the roads is denied as untrue Regarding the chang ed relations between Thomas F. Ryan and George Skelton "Williams, represent ing the two systems, in certain law suits, no official announcement is to be made. The matter will simply be dismissed and no more will be heard of it. This ac cords with the wish of both gentlemen, who, in times past, have indulged in some bitter "language concerning each other.

Some of the questions to be discussed are: "Is Compulsory Arbitration practicable or Desirable in This Country?" "If Not Desirable in General Industrial Enterprises, .Would It Be Desirable in Quasi-public Service, Such as Steam or Street Railways, and if so. How Can It Be Made Effective?" "Are State Boards of Arbitration or State Interference of Any Kind Prefer able to Voluntary Arbitration?"

PAUL, GLOBE, TUESDAY DECEMBER 11, 1900. 1111 Mi GUNBOAT BANCROFT TO INSPECT CMIUIiill, ON CENTRAL AMER ICAN COAST BUNS THROUGH TO PACIFIC "Where Another Supply Depot Could Be MHiiitiiinvd—>l:i> Be Pos sible to Secure Another in Peru. • t WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.—The naval movements today record the sailing of the- gunboat Bancroft, from Colon, for Almirante bay. It is understood that Ser mission is to look into the advantages offered by the port of Chiriqui as a coal ing station. The need for such stations has been apparent ever since the run of the Oregon from San Francisco around to the West Indies; during the Spanish- American war. The sum of $400,010 is now available under appropriation by con gress for securing naval stations. Sev eral points have been sonsidered, but Chiriqui is among the most desirable. EXCELLENT HARBOR. The harbor is capable of floating the entire fleet of a nation, and the water is deep enough for the heaviest battleship. Approaches were made to the Colombian government, with a view to learning whether they would entertain a proposi tion to grant Chiriqui as a coaling sta tion. At that time Colombia was not in a position to make a -definite arrange ment, as the territory, including this harbor, has been in dispute between Co lombia and Costa Rica, llie answer therefore was to the effect that the grant could not be made while the question of sovereignty remained open between the two countries. Since then, however, Co lombia and Costa Rica have arranged to arbitrate the differences, and there is "a prospect of an early settlement of sov ereignty. With this point removed, it is believed that there will be no serious ob jections from Colombia or Costa Rica to granting a coaling station. T!ie territory runs through to the Pacific side, where it is possible that a Pacific station might be located. The right of Colomb'a on the Pacific side is not in dispute with Costa Rica. The latter country also has several Pacific harbors, said to be well suted for a coaling station, although there have been no overtures thus far towards secur ing one of them. STATION IN PERU. In this connection attention is again di rected to the Bay of Chimbote, in Peru When Mr. Blalne was secretary of state the United States minister to Peru se cured a concession for an American coal ing station on this bay. But as the con cession was granted while Peru was in the throes of her war with Chii, Mr i Blame disapproved of it, and it lapsed 1" At that time Minister Hurlburt reported . that it offered the best facilities on he Pacific coast for an American coaling sta. j tion for besides the depth of water-and | harbor facilities, extensive coal mines i were in the immediate vicinity, thus giv ing a supply of coal without the neces sity of shipping it f.om the United Slates 'cumVZ'v c Sent difficulties between Chili and ru> there have been recent in timations that Peru would be willing to i f^t a TJ co, al station to the United States But this has not taken any of ficial form, nor have there been any ne gotiations concerning Chimbote bay. The matter has not yet gone beyond the gen eral consideration of desirable points but l£>V*t £f re h°pe U wlll a^ance before KeVtZt*:. lntof y****£ a su.ta- CAEGO OF^THE DEAD.-^ Transport Hancock Brings 1,500 Bodies of''Soldiers to 'Frisco SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 10.-The trans port Hancock arrived today from Ma nila, via Nagasaki, with a gruesome cargo.
