UNION PACIFIC EXEMPT.
Interatata Commerce Commission Al
lows Proteat to 8tand.
Waahincrtm. Mav 14. Because It la
2,800 miles from St. Paul to Spokane
over the Harriman railway system and
only 1,900 milea over th Great North
ern and Northern Pacific, the Inter
state Commerce commisiion today
modified it recent decision in the Spo
kane rate case, exempting the Harri
man road from adoption of the rate
fixed by that decision as to fit. raui
traffic. Thia deciaion wa made possi
ble only by the fact that no direct line
from St. Paul to Omaha was a party to
the Spokane caae.
The commission, however, ia unwil
ling at this time to grant similar ex
emption to the Harriman ayatem on
freight from Chicago to Spokane, be
cauae the Northwestern and Burling
ton road, which connect with the
Union Pacific system at Omaha, were
partiea to that case. However, the
mmmi.iinn tiimnorarilv DortDonea it
order as to Chicago-Spokane rate over
the Union facinc, giving th Harriman
road opportunity to establish new
ratoa from Chicairo to all territory be
tween Pendleton and spoxane.

French Deputies Show Confidence in
Government.
Paria Mav 14. A turbulent session
of the chamber of depuies today result
ed in a victory for Premier Clemen-
ceau, when the government' policy
with regard to the postal strike was
amnhatirallv indorsed bv a vote of 454
to 69, including also the government'
insistence that tne postal employes ana
other functionaries have no right to I
l.il !
Immediately afterward the chamber
passed vote of general confidence in
lha ovtvftrnmont bv 365 to 75.
The strikers received the chamber'
rebuke with a shrug of the shoulder,
declaring it only served to bind closer
their force, which would soon startle
the country by a big increase and a
rapid extension of the general move
ment. On the other band, it ia inti
mated that the government haa other

FEWER RAILROAD ACCIDENTS
Year 1908 Was 40 Per Cent Safer
Than Was 1907.
Chicago, May 14. Not since the
huainesa prostration of 1895 and 1896
has travel on American railroads been
aa nf aa it was during 1908. In a
nam nhlpt iaauAd bv the bureau of rail-
and statistics, it ia stated
that there were 1,932 fewer fatalities
to passengers and employe in railway I
accidents durinar 1908 than there were
Hnrinir 1907. which is a decrease of ap
proximately 40 per cent. The greatest
decrease was in fatalities resulting
from train accidents, and the following
conclusion is orawn :
"iilthinrrs considered, the conclu
sion ia unavoidable that the diminution
in fatalities was due almost entirely to
tha racaiuinn in freight traffic which
took the strain off every department of
service and substituted an oraeriy oo
servance of rules by passengers and em
ployes, instead of their violation in the
feverish rush of prosperity."
