hnd not heard the knocking. -Virginia
hesitated a moment and' then
tried the knob. The latch turned
and sho pushed onen the door re
luctantly, hating to intrude, but
urgod on by the thought that hero

and shocked Virginia. Under stiff,
bleached curls sho saw a highly
colored group of features that wore
bntli hard and weakly femlnino.
The fnce was partly burled in a
pillow but Virginia snw, on the ox
posed cheek, a dark red spot that
appeared purplo against (ho ornngo
rouge. i
Tho ownor lifted Iho unprepos
sessing head and glnred at Vir
ginia from swollen, mascara
smudged eyes. "Whnt do you
want?" she asked fiercely.
"Nothing, unless I can bo of
some service to you," Virginia an
swered quickly, stifling an impulse
lo leave without bothering further
with tho Iroublos of such a person.
"I ain't nskln' nobody lo butt

girl told her snappishly. "I've had
girls help me before and they was

"Repayin' your call," she said

"I'm leaving," Virginia said
shortly and reached for her travel

"Well, take my hunch and get,

remarked with a touch of concilia

want a respectable hotel, you're
in the wrong place."
"Thank you," Virginia returned
stiffly. "I shall make careful in

ered up her gloves and handbag in
one hand and, taking the travel

riedly out of the room, leaving her
guest holding the door open.
The elevator boy carried the
heavier bag to the desk and put it
down at her feet. "I wish to pay

clerk when he came to her.
"Why, is thero anything wrong?"

It wns after one o'clock when

E
CAuocialcd PrcH Leased Wire)
SEATTLE. May 26 Testimony
that eastern Washington grain
growers from south of the Snake
river desire parity of freight rateB
to Columbia river and Puget Sound
ports wns given by Judge IS. V.
Kuykendnll ot Pomeroy, former
state director of public works and
a farmer, here today, before the
Interstate Commerce commission's
grain rate hearing.
Presented as a representative of
farmers in his locality Kuykendnll
asserted that under the existing
ten per cent differential favoring
Portland, the farmers were not get
ting full value for their crops; that
there was no competition among
buyers, either- due to agreement
among the Portland buyers or be
cause Portland was not equipped
adequately to handle the volume
of grain; and that Puget Sound
grain buyers could not compete
against, the differential, thus depri
ving the growors of competitive
bidding for their crops.
A parity rate would bo In keep
ing with the spirit of .the Hoch
Siiiilh resolution under which the I.
C. C. Investlgalinn Is being held,
Kuykendnll coulended, inasmuch as
resolution wuh framed to aid farm
ers In marketing their products.
A general lowering of the freight
rates to Pacific coast points would
be appreciated by (lie growers.
Kuykendnll testified, but said "we
will get more benefit from a parity
than from reduced rates with a
differential."
Under questioning by W. C. Mc
culloch, Portland attorney, Kuyken-
uall emphasized that the Inck of
Puget Sound grain buyers was due
to the "differential and the small
margin on which the grain Is hand
led," McCulloch had asked If the
absence of Puget Sound buyers
might not be duo to collusion on
their part."
Distance should not be the para
mount consideration in making
grain rates, Kuykendnll argued.
"It should bo the policy of re-
gulufory bodies In fixing rates to
consider the producer first," he
said. Portland's advantages are
not sufficient lo Justify tho differ
ential. The railroads operated on a
parity prior to this rate and should
be given tho opportunity again.
The Interest of the grower should
be given first consideration.
It. D. Lyttle, mnnnger of the
North Pacific Millers' association.
was recalled for cross-examination
when Kuykendnll left the stand.
Northern transcontinental rail
roads will not participate actively
j in the Investigation unless a con
certed nttnek develops upon all
j rates affecting grain movements.
This was, made known by repre
sentatives of tho Northern Pacific,
Great Northern nnd the Chicago,
Milwaukee. St. Paul and Pacific
railways who snld that tho roads
will contest any demand for a gen
