6 II 111 B IB RAILROAD COMMISSION INSISTS THAT THE ORE RATE HEAR ING BE PRESSED TO BE TAKEN TIP NEXT FRIDAY Hearing Will Be Resumed Then, if the Railroads Attend, or an Order Will Be Made. The railroad and warehouse commis sion yesterday morning handed down tl»e ultimatum to the hearings of the iron ore rates when they declined to grant the roads further time in which to pre pare their evidence. The Miss-tbe, Du luth & Iron Range and Minnesota East ern roads were all represented and vi on their statement, through counsel. I'ti&i they were unable to proceed with the case as they could not introduce ntw testimony within less thin three week.s, the commission declared the investiga tions closed and cited Friday morning as the day for deciding upon fir.ai action. For the Missabe roaa, J. E. Cotton ap peared and offered a written motion ask ing for three weeks in which to prepare further testimony. He reiterated his previous statement that the company would need sixty days from Dec. 10, to make a complete case. The motion was denied. Mr. Cotton protested against the commission's act and demanded a right to be heard for his company at any time testimony could be produced. He also took exception to the record as compiled fr,.m the last meeting of the commission, at which neither of the Mi.=sabe attorneys were present. The commission reiu:-ed to have the record changed. Mr. Cot ton's main motion was to have the orier estopping the introduction of testimony set aside and vacated. This motion was likewise denied. M. D. Grover appeared for th? DuHith & Iron Range in the enforced absence of its counsel, Frank B. Keilog?. Mr, Grover submitted affidavits, one of v;h:c:i war, from Mr. Kellogg:, stating his inabil ity to be present and urging that thirty or forty days be granted by the coin mission' for a further preparation of tes timony. lie insisted that the company intended to secure ai! testimony possible within a reasonable time and that to proceed now without this testimony or to close the case would be a denial to tne Iron Range road to be heard. Mr Grover then took up the case in behalf of his own road, the Eastern Mln, nesota. His remarks wore quite nneT. He said that the rates of the Eastern road on ore were in accordance with the law of trade and competition. \s rctrards the examination of ore rates on this road, Mr. Grov€r stated that such an examination would necessarily involve an examination of aji merchandise re ceipts as well, as the accounts of tha company are so kept as to prevent the easy separation of one class of receipts from another. Such a complicated in vestigation he said could not possibly be made in anything less than sixty aays. Since the issuance of the order for the hearing Mr Grover said his company hai teen laboring diligently to gather the necessary testimony and that if the com, mission felt now that it could not con sistently grant at least thirty days, then there is no reason for a continuance of any less time and the F.astern and the Duluth & Iron Range ask for no further time He said these two companies would be willing to leave the matter in that event, to the consideration of tha commission to decide in the light of its nubUc duty and the public welfare. "1 ):„-•• S£L id Mr. Grover, "makes our position ciiax-c ~nd definite for the com mission to, act on." Continuing Mr. Grover said: "From the reports filed the commission no doubt has concluded that the earnings of these roads vary considerably, then what would a reasonable rate be? The law Bays that in determining the reasona iffeness of rates inquiry must be made into the cost of construction, the bonds, earnings under present rates and earn ings under certain other possible sched ules This, too, is no trifling case. It in volves an inquiry Into all this, and be sides an inquiry into the market of the ore and all the contingencies in connec tion with that market." Mr O'Brien, for the state, agreed with Mr Grover in the last premises, and gaiO that had the hearing been conducted along this line, as indicated by Mr. Grover the commission would now stanc in a different light. Mr. O'Brien stated that while it was proper to inquire into the cost of construction, the market and contingencies and the earning capacities of the roads, it was due the commission for the roads to give it an estimate of the cost, etc etc., if time did not warrant exact statement of them. He declared that the commission only demand a fair estimate of the cost of construction, such as he believed their engineer could give, and did not ask for the precise figures. Mr. O'Brien believed this information could have been furnished in three days Inasmuch as the Duluth & fron Range and the Mlssabe roads have withdrawn their former rates, Mr. O'Brien claimed that the commission should have the right to inspect some of the contracts under which these companies transact their business. He said that, after all he believed the most important question to decide was not that ot rates, but whether or not the roads are common carriers. WAS CONSIDERED IN SECRET. The commission held a secret se-son, and Commissioners Ringdal and Knox voted to deny motions for a continuance of the hearings. They adjourned until Friuay, at 2 p. m., before which time the commission will be ready to receive testimony from any of the roads. On Friday the linal disposition of the matter will be decided upon by the commission. Messrs. Grover and Cotton, for their respective companies, stated that they had no testimony to offer further at that time. It io probable that the commission will make an order next Friday in the rate case, unless a change Is caused by the in troduction of new testimony before that time. BID FROM L..V CROSSE.

MANUFACTTJEEES BADLY OFF, Says "Witness Grey, Eefcre the In- <1 us trial Commission. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17.—The indus trial commission began a special session at the manufacturers club here today and representatives of all the important industries in Pennsylvania have been in vited to appear. It is hoped by the mem bers of the commission that much in formation of economic and industrial val ues will be collected during the meeting. The commissioners present at the open ing session were: Albert Clark, Boston, chairman', Charles H. Litchman, Newark, N. J.; D. A. Tompkins, Charlotte, N. C.; John M. Farquahr, Buffalo. Others who are ex. pected to be present before the commis sion concludes its sittings are: Andrew L. Harris, Eaton, O.; Thomas W. Philiips, New Casf.e, Pa., and John L. Kennedy, Washington. The witness was J. Gordon Grey, sec retary of the manufacturer"?' club and head of the firm of Queen & Co., manu facturers of optical goods. Chairman Clarke asked Mr, Grey to state the object and status of the Manu facturers' club. He said that every in dustry in Philadelphia is represented In. the olub and many clubs throughout th? country and abroael are also represented. In answer to a question as to the con diiton of business as represented by the members of the club, Mr. Grey said that during the past four years the business conditions had improved. In many ca?e.« factories were worked over time and "w^ges had been largely increased. Mr. Grey asserted that despite the prosperity ! of the country the manufacturers had not participated in it to any extent. He gave as a reason for this the increased price of raw material, which, he said, prevented a proportionate business in profit with the increase of business. Raw material costs more and wages are high er, he said, but the manufacturers are unable to secure relatively higher prices for the finished article. m SINKING OF THE GNEISENAU. Of the Crew of 450, I3G Are Report ed Lost. BERLIN, Dec. 17.—An official dispatch from Malaga, received here this morn ing, accounts for 314 survivors out of tho 450 persons who were on bonrd the Ger man training frigate Gneisenau, which foundered at the entrance to the port of Malaga yesterday, while she was taking refuge from the terrible storm prevailing at the time. It is rumored that the commander of the Gneisenau committed suicide when he saw that all was lost. A nephew of the imperial chancellor, Count yon Buelow, named Berndt, was among the saved, though' he was injured about the head. A sailor who survived the wreck went mad as a result of his experience. The first engineer, the assistant engineer and a number of petty officers were drowned. It is hoped that the guns, the treasure chest and perhaps part of the hull will be salvaged. CLOSE CALL FOR ROBSON. Madman Planted Two Bullets Ri^ht Over His Head. DANVILLE, Ky., Dec. 17.—Stuart Rob, sen, the actor, had a narrow escape from death yesterday while passing through on the Queen & Crescent railway.

Wilson's Example. LONDON, Dec. 17.-The first issue of the London Sun, under the editorship ot the Rev. Dr. Joseph- Parker, pastor of the city temple, appears this afternoon. The column where the day's betting is usually published, contains, under the caption "latest News,"' "the wages of sin is death," and other familiar texts, followed ui> by a vigorous j>roi.?st against gam bling. The article declares "if a paper cannot live six days without pandering to the gambler, the drunkard and the sensualist, let it wither away." In another editorial Dr. Parker urges the magistrates to "apply the cat ond wipe out Hooliganism." Otherwise the paper is much the ?ame as usual, the advertising column beine filled with prospectuses and the news co£ umns announcing "another ghastly East end tragedy." THE ST. PAUI,, GtrOBB, TUESDAY DECEMBER 18, 196 a SUCH IS THE JUDGMENT OF THE ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE ON STREETS MINISTERS PROTEST IN VAIN Committee Votes Four to Three in Favor of Granting the Li cense Asked by Mrs. Weinholzer. The committee on streets of the assem bly met yesterday afternoon, and, after hearing the protests of Rev. David Mor gan and Rev. Homer C. Ashcraft, of the Methodist Ministers' union, and the argu ments of Mr. Weinholzer, decided to make a favorable report to the assem bly to grant a theater license for the Empire theater. When the matter came up before the committee, Chairman Craig announced that any one wishing to would be heard on the matter. Maj. Denny made a mo tion to report favorably on the granting of the license, and was seconded by As semblyman Wheeler. When vthese pre liminaries had been disposed of, David Morgan got up, and, addressing the com mittee, said that himself and Mr. Ash craft were present, representing twenty six Methodist churches in St. Paul, to protest against the granting of a theater license to Mr. Weinholzer for several rea sons. Mr. Morgan said in part: "In the first place, it has not besn the policy of this city to giant a theater license to a woman. We don't think Mr. Weinholzer is a man fit to run a theater, and he is only trying to get a license under th<> guise of a woman. The whole plan of the theater is one which will enable him to sell liquor all through the building." Asstmblman Denny stated that he had visited the Empire theater, but could not see anything wrong with the perform ance. Upon being questioned by the commit tee why he had not already consulted with the mayor, as head of the police department, about the matter, Mr. Mor gan said that he had seen Mayor Smith, and that the mayor had told him he could not do anything about the matter now, as it has passed out of his hands. The mayor, however, told him to imme diately see the committee having the matter in charge. Mr. Morgan also inti mated that in case the license was grant ed arrests would follow, and that they would prefer to fight with a man instead of a woman. Rev. Mr. Ashcraft coincide* with Mr. Morgan in his remarks, remarking: "We are here to protest against the granting of this license with all our might. This evil must be stopped.' SAYS IT IS HIS WIFE'S MONEY. Mr. Weinholzer had his turn next and denied that he intended to run a low variety theater. He said that the rea son for asking for a license in his wife's name was because it was her money that had been invested. Assemblyman Craig asked Mr. Wein holzer about his alleged giving money to Building Inspector Haas. Mr. Wein holzer then told of going into the build ing inspector's office and having a talk with Mr. Kaas about his plans and get ing a permit. He stated that Mr. Haas said he would rather have the matter go through the council first before granting the permit. They had, however, come to an agreement by which Mr. Wein holzer paid Haas $40 that day and $10 Jn a few days, and $50 more out of the opening night's receipts. Building Inspector Haas was standing in the doorway, and after Mr. W'einholzai had finished, he turned to him and said: "Now, Mr. Weinholzer, is it not a fact that you never gave me any money?'" Weinholzer looked at him and replied in the negative, saying, "What's the mat ter with you?" Mr. Haas next asked him if there was any one in the room at the time, and to this Mr. Weinholzer stated that there was no one present when the money was turned over, as he, (meaning Haas) had sent the girl sten ographer out of the room and shut the door while they talked. Thfs caused quite a little laughter among the com mittee and those present. After con siderable more discussion, the motion to refer favorably on the granting of the license was carried by the following vote: Ayes: Denny, Wheeler, Nelson and Warner. Nays: Benson, Haas and Craig. A resolution to revoke the permit for repairs on Cook's barn, on Jackson street, which stands on the new market site] was placed on file, as the city attorney said the permit was invalid anyway. The committee voted to report favor ably on a resolution to the effect that all labor for city work and contracts should be hired in St. Paul. The jail matter was laid over and the committee adjourned to meet again at 7 o'clock Thursday evening. The Methodist churches of St. Paul will hold a union service at the First M. E. church, this evening, at 8 o'clock, in the interest of city evangelization. The pre siding elder, Dr. F. M. Rule, will de liver the address. WANTS BOWIE TO SETTLE.

William De Ronden Pos is taking legal action against John Alexander Dowie, the Zion ist of Chicago, claiming he was libeled in the issue of Dowie's "Leaves of Healing" ol Oct. 16, in which publication the Rev.

Counsel for the plaintiff described Mr. Dowie as i British subject, said he was now in Paris, on his way to Switzer land, and asked for the court's permis sion to serve a writ out of its jurisdiction. Leave was granted, subject to Mr. Dowie having liberty to appeal against the older. THAT ANTHRACITE DEAL. Coxe Bros. Deny That Morgan Has Swallowed Them. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 17.—Alexander B. Coxe, of Coxe Bros. & Co.. the big coal operators, denies that there has been any negotiations with J. P. Morgan & Co., for the sale or disposal of their coal interests in the Lehigh valley.
