N o. 21 RULING ASSAILED Commerce Court's Decision May End Its Existence WORK OF YEAR IS UNDONE Virginia's Governor Refuses to Save Wife Murderer Beatii; From Electric Cbalr (Sneclal to the Evening Review). WASHINGTON. Nov. 15. That the Interstate Commerce Commission has been virtually shorn of its power as the result of the Commerce Court's decision In the long and short haul rate case Is declared today by men who for years have been actively con nected with the commission's work. They believe the decision will precipi tate anothe. Legislative struggle to vest the commission with authority to act. Sentiment in Congress against con tinued existence of the conn is grow ing. Ottlcials say the decision means that the commission cannot tlx "blanket rates." but must confine its work to fixing rates In sierial rases. Authority Denied. In its opinion yesterday, the Com merce Court held in part: "Insofar as the commission at tempts to determine the relation of the long and short haul rates irre 8ective of absolute rates, it goes be yond any authority that has been vested in it, tor It is not In the power of the commission to say that 100 iter cent or 107 ei cent of any given per centage of an unknown less than reasonable rate to the Coast is neces sarily a maximum reasonable and non-discriminatory rate from the same point of origin to an interior point. "The practical effect of the com mission's order is either to compel a blanket rate from the entire East to the entire West, or to prevent the carriers from getting all the business which they now secure without loss by making rales which enable mer chants to meet market coniietitlon. "In a word, unless some through business is given up, the effect of the orders would be to put Spokano and other Interior points on an equality with Seattle and other Coast points, at which they would not be entitled under all circumstances. In view ol their relative locations, the -former 400 miles more or less in the Interior, the latter on the coast." IWIVP l Jury Out Four And Half flours, .

Gallagher, brought In a verdict of guilty in the Circuit Court at 8:30 o'clock Tues day night. Judge Hamilton an nounced that he would pronounce sentence next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. The statute prescribing penalty allows the court wide lati tude, the punishment ranging from a flue, without Imprisonment, to In- Icarcerntlon for the maximum period ol sl years. The jury took nine ballots in all. the first one standing 8 to 4 In favor 'of conviction. The next six were the same. On. the eighth ballot one Juror switched his vote from ac quittal to couvictlon and on the next ballot there was a unanimous vote for a verdict of guilty. Scott re ceived the announcement of the ver dict with the same air of calmness that has marked his demeanor from the first. Deep anxiety has been -manifested, however, by other mem bers of his family, nearly all of whom were present in court this morning In anticipation of penalty being im posed. One More to Penitentiary. ' Harry Smith, the fellow who rode to Marshfleld In a buggy stolen from Or. R. M. Urumfield. of tills city, and drawn by a horse stolen also, plead guilty this afternoon to an indict ' nient charging him with larceny. Judge Hamilton sentenced him to the penitentiary for an Indeterminate period of not less than one year. Smith Is the fellow who gained con siderable notoriety by professing to know the murderer of the Hill fam ily at Ardcnwald. near Portland. His story was Investigated and then dis credited under the belief that he was simply "faking" to gain a promise of Immunity from the larceny charge. I Ruiiget-t On Trial. I Henry Bangert, Indicted for as sault with a deadly weapon. Is on trial before a jury this afternoon. He Is charged with shooting at and wounding Eugene R. lllester. tenant of a farm on Cow Creek, near Glen dale, which Bangert had been com pelled by law to give up to his wife when she seecred a decree of divorce. The evidence against Bangert is prac tically, uncontradicted and his con-' viction In quick time Is a foregone conclusion. His attorney. J. O. Wat son, appointed by the court to act for Bangert. appears to have nothing on which to base a defense, except the bare statement of Bangert that on the day he Is alleged to have com mitted the crime he was shooting at raH Its. Testimony Introduced by the prose cution was that Bangert appeared at his former home In the early morning of August 1, last, armed with a rifle, and fired at lllester. who was stand ing at the time outside of the house. Running Inside of the house, lliester secured his own rifle, then went out side and fired twice at Bangert. who replied with one shot, all bullets go ing wild. Bangert then disappeared and lllester went hack inside. Kif teen minutes later, as Hiestcr was building a Are In the kitchen, a rifle bullet crashed through a glusa win dow pane and struck him In the side of the head, inflicting a sculp wound. Bangert arrest followed. On the day before this affair. Ban gert told two men, Ed Ollnghonae and F. Gaedecke, that "tomorrow was Hlester's last day on the place," that he had notified him to leave and if he did not do so he would Rhont him. Olinghouse and Gaedecke both testified to this threat this afternoon Other witnesses also told of threats made by Bangert against lllester on other occasions. Bangert's animosity toward Hlester was based solely on the fact that he was occupying a fans which he (Bangert) thought should still be his own. Bangert is a Ger man and about 65 years of age. kincart and Siren Get Verdict.
