Bill for Relief Reported House Committee. by (DiSL Sal. RATE LIFT TO BE ASKED I " - . i In RAILROADS STAT - Government Ownership Rejected and Plumb Plan Meld Impos sible Strikes Intolerable. WASHINGTON'. Nov. 10. Under permanent railroad legislation for mally reported to the house today by Chairman Esch of the interstate commerce committee, the railroads must make application to the inter state commerce commission for a general increase of rates within 60 days after their return to private operation, January 1. The house committee in its report said it did not attempt to adopt new and untried plans, but had built on a foundation already in existence. Government ownership was re jected, it was explained, because of the president's announced intention to return the lines to private opera tion at the end of the year, the de sire for such action by the carriers and "the widespread demand among the people that federal control cease as soon as suitable legislation could be enacted." I'lumb Finn Impossible. The Plumb plan also was rejected, the report said, because its "provi sions were so radical and the prin ciples so foreign to the fundamental principles of our government that it was considered by the committee as impossible." Opposing creation of a transporta tion board, as proposed in the senate measure, the report said such an or ganization to advise the interstate commerce commission would be a needless and expensive burden and more subject to political influence than the interstate commerce com mission. Referring to the labor provisions of the house bill, creating boards for the voluntary arbitration, of disputes between employes and carriers, the report declared fulfillment of wage contracts by both carriers and work ers was essential. Strike Held Intolerable. The report of Chairman Cummins on the senate interstate commerce committee's bill also was presented today. Anti-strike provisions of the measure are defended. "Both strikes and lockouts must cease," said the report. "They can no longer be tolerated in a free coun try. The governmet must settle strikes between railway managers and employes." Senator Cummins said the labor ad justment board's proposed plan would provide "complete, impartial justice to both railway corporations and em ployes and the public as well." In what he termed a "word to the unions" Senator Cummins, comment ing on leaders' opposition to the anti strike clauses, said it was evident that the strike weapon had proved its failure and that in the operation of the proposed labor 'tribunals the iinlnnQ fnulH "Via mfirA effAiMva It HPPIirfnir inutiiA than thv ava waia through the strike." . F federal Operation Costly. Senator Cummins said government ownership had been rejected general ly as inadvisable, adding that in creased federal regulation of com petitive regional transportation sys tems was the best alternative.

L MUST GIVE LIFE COURT - MARTIAL COXDEMXS FRENCHMAN' FOR TREASON. Bolshevik Newspapers Link Cap tain With Names of Lenlne and Trotzky. BY ARNO DOSCH-FLECROT. (Copyrisht by the New York World. Pub lished by Arrangement.) PARIS. Nov. 10. (Special Cable.) Captain Jacques Sadoul was con demned to death by court-martial Saturday for remaining with the bolsheviki in Russia. Four of. the seven judges insisted on continuing the trial, and, though the accused is in Russia, a vote of condemnation was expected. Captain Sadoul is sup ported by the entire militant social ist movement in France, and he will become almost as famous as Lreyfus. As if to force the unified socialists into the open in their support of Sadoul and the Russian bolsheviki, his trial came just before the general election. The trial has also given the socialists the opportunity to present-a mass of unofficial testimony tending to show that Captain Sadoul was a friend of the French soldiers captured by the bolsheviki. L.e Populaire, Jean Lionguet s bol shevik newspaper, lias caught the popular bolshevik note by "playing up Sadoul with Jjenine ana xrotzKy. The Paris bolsheviki. who are com paratively few and most of them fac tory workmen who were in French factories during the war, go in bands to all political meetings ana fre quently drown the speaker's voice with constant prolonged cries, Vive Lenine, Vive Trotzky, vive Sadoul. Political meetings here have been pretty rough during the last few days, the bolsheviki and the extreme conservatives of the Action Francaise group constantly coming to blows. The mark of bolsheviki which Pre mier Clemenceau placed on the so cialists was in a measure anticipated by the socialists, for only two of heir important organs, Le Populaire and Humanlte, are actively defending Sadoul, and even this is having the effect of alienating a vast number of small burgeoise voters from the so cialists. Paris is evidently going anti-socialist on November 16. Some Paris railroad men tried to force a strike in honor of the second anniversary of the bolshevik revolu tion in Russia but failed completely. This indicated that the majority of the workmen, although socialists, are opposed to the support of the Russian bolsheviki and the socialist leaders have taken this attitude. HOTELS PLAN FOR SHOW LIVESTOCK .EXPOSITION VIS ITORS TO BE CARED FOR. Snow Forces Animals From Pro tection of Park to Wholesale Slaughter by Hunters. LIVINGSTON, Mont., Nov. 10. Only heroic efforts on the part of the gov ernment officials can prevent the ex termination of the great herd of elk in the Yellowstone National park this fall and winter, declared Horace M. Albright, superintendent of the park, upon his departure for Washington tonight. Unprecedented weather conditions and slaughter by hunters in Montana threaten to wipe out (.he last elk herd in North America, the superintendent pointed out. Following the driest season in the history of Montana, October brought the heaviest snow fall in park history. The elk. swept from the park in great herds across the protecting boundaries of the na tional reservation, to be met with volleys of bullets from hunters near Gardiner and other Montana points. No effort is being made to hit any particular elk by the battle line of elk seekers, according to the super intendent. Volleys are fired into the herds until each hunter present has obtained his limit of one elk, while scores of animals flee, dangerously wounded, to die in the hills, unclaimed by the law, which fn this state per mits but a single animal to each hunter.

Hotel men of Portland at a meet ing of the Hotel Men's association at the Portland hotel yesterday at noon drew up plans for effectively caring for the crowds of people who are expected here for the annual Pa cific International Livestock show opening November 17. It was agreed that each of the ten larger hotels of the city take ten of the smaller hotels "under their wing," and thus insure the use of the public housing facili ties of 4he city to the utmost. Each of the larger hotels will refer any overflow, which it has, to the ten smaller hotels until all available rooms are taken. After that, rooms in private residences will have to be relied upon. Dudley "W. Evans of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, in charge of the housing problem for the live stock show, explained the general method that will be used in making dwellings available after hotel ac commodations are exhausted. Portland people are asked to open their homes for visitors, that all may be cared for. and a list of rooms being prepared by Mr. Evans.

IN 2 6 Successful Men Said to Have Been Carried to Victory by Strength of Tickets as Whole. NEW YORK. Nov. 10. (Special.) Soldier candidates for public office fared badly in the elections of last week. In 64 conspicuous instances throughout the country 38 veterans were defeated. In almost every one of the remaining 26 cases the suc cessful men were carried through by the strength of the tickets as a whole. Comparatively speaking, few elec tions were held last week. Only three states chose officers, and county elec tions were not numerous. Cities and towns chiefly were concerned, but po-' litical observers find in this fact an added significance, so far as soldiers aspirations are involved. Locally cam paigns are more intensive and' per sonality is, as a rule, more of a fac tor than when the district is larger. What happened to the veterans last Tuesday is, therefore, being regarded an indication of what the country at large may be expected to think if the "new political G. A R., or whicn so much has been said during the last six months, ever should be attempted. It even may be taken as an index of possible opinion when the national campaign of next year begins to take form. The instances to which refer ence has been made were widely enough separated, at least,' to sug gest that the feeling is general. Another significant element or tne situation is that the primary elections which preceded those of last week, eliminated a large number of men. One illustration of this occurred in Allegheny county, Pennsylvania, oi which Pittsburg is the principal com munity. There a carefully organized and generously financed movement was started for the overthrow, of the republican organization. The anti Leslie ticket, as it was called, was made up almost entirely of veterans, from lieutenant-colonels down to pri vates. Not a man on this ticket came through the primaries. In Philadel phia exactly the same thing came about, the primaries disposing or every soldier who Bought nomination for city or county office. BOATS TO BE HOTELS DETROIT ARRANGES TO HOUSE 3 5 00 ON STEAMERS. Complete hotel facilities will be provided on the boats if the plan goes through. "It is not the present plan to give especial atention to transient trade," Schantz said. "We hope rather to relieve the situation of permanent residents of Detroit who are unable to find apartments. As soon as we are In a position we shall notify the board of commerce of the number of persons "we are able to accommodate, snd offer staterooms to the public. "The boats will -be operated just as is any ordinary hotel, with Ijotel service, including telephone service, bellboy service and other facilities which are now unobtainable by many apartment house residents." Rates have not yet been deter mined. Staterooms will be rented as a, whole. Each stateroom Is used In the summer by two and sometimes three persons. Mr. Schantz says this feature will reduce the rental for a small family much below that now demanded in apartment houses and private homes throughout ti e city. SlI CHARGED FOR 'CORKAGE' NEW YORK HOTELS ADD LINE TO MENU CARD. Lake Passenger Ships in Winter Quarters Available Till March for City's Overflow. DETROIT, Nov. lO.--Plans for util izing steamships for the temporary relief of the housing and hotel prob lems of the city cannot materialize before the middle of November, ac cording to A. A. Schantz. general msnager. But at that time, Schantz says, he will be able to furnish eight vessel with accommodations for about 3500 persons, who may be housed 6n the lake passenger boats until March. Proprietor Tells Congress Women Carry Cocktails in Tubes At tached to "Vanity Cases." NEW YORK, Nov. 10. (Special.) If you carry anything on the hip--or anywhere else about the person, for that matter and you stop in the future at one of New York's leading hotels, you'll have to "nozzle" the liquid down or else pay "corkage." Walter Guzzardi who conducts the Hotel Idajestic restaurant, gave con gress some aid in straining the joy out of life by announcing that he had placed on each menu the line "Corkage, SI.", Incidentally, It was said, the Pennsylvania, .Waldorf-As toria, Astor and Claridge already were making the charge. Few realize, said Mr. Guzzardi, the extent of the flask among diners. Then he cited the hip-pocket flask. the vest-pocket flask and the fact that women carry cocktails in little tubes attached to their vanity cases. Some even carry little handbags con taining the cocktail ingredients in side, he added. Many of the hotels find there Is about as much drinking as ever, sans revenue. Hence the "corkage" tax. In Egypt cottonseed oil cake seems to be proving a satisfactory substi tute for coal. The present value of the oil cake is less -than a fifth the cost of coal.

Fruit growers In all of the north west states are suddenly awaking to the fact that the cold storage bill recently passed by the house con tains some features inimical to the apple Industry. Protests are begin ning to come in from Washington Oregon and Idaho and a effort will be made to have the bill amended in the senate committee on agriculture Representative Summers of Wash ington has conferred with Senator McNary, who is the only northwest member of the senate committee with a view of having the provisions relating to the marking of packages containing apples with all of the data relative to when they are placed Into storage, removed from storage and placed in re-storage. This data i held to be quite unnecessary in the case of apples, which are not capable of such long storage, and the re quirement will entail much additional expense and work to the growers.
