RATE-CUTTING BY STEAMERS 8AN FRANCISCO, Oct. IT. What promlsea to be the moat bitter and far-reacbing rate-cutting war ever knows on this side of the continent has bean started by two of the big steamship lines operating on the Pa cific and as result Ban Francisco, as tbe pivotal point in the impending struggle, already is attracting the attention of shippers throughout tbe country. The first clash In the rate war has Involved tbe Canadian Pacific railroad company and the Japanese Nippon Yusen Kalsha Steamship line. Tbe latter is the largest and financially the most powerful line op erating on the Pacific, and has al ready started to slash rates unmerci fully. Local Officials Worried. Although the trouble has not reached this city yet, railroad and steamship company officials here are worried over the outlook and are anxious to know how far me cutting will extend. The Northern Pacific and Oregon line will feel tbe effect first, but It will not be long before the trade at this port will be affected. Tbe rate war coming upon the new rules of the Interstate commerce commission In regard to publishing rates, has left shippers throughout tbe country, particularly In the east ern manufacturing centers, wonder ing where they stand. Until tbe su preme court of the United States passes upon the questions raised In this city there Is bound to be great uncertainty. Two very Important points in tbe matter were raised In the federal courts In this city. One- Involving the act affecting the very existence of the commission and Its powers In relation to the courts, was recently decided by the Circuit court ot this district. Commission Wins Suit. It was In what Is known as the lumber rate cases. The three Circuit judges, Gilbert, Morrow and Ross, sat as in special session of the Circuit court and their decision was In fa vor of the commission. It was the first time the matter was contested In any Federal court. The appeal Is now before the Supreme court. Another new point, never before brought before a federal tribunal, has been raised In the United States District court In this city and will be argued before Judge De Haven next Friday. Charles J. Heggerty, the at torney for tbe Pacific Mall and the Southern Pacific, has raised the point In tbe rebate cases that the Interstate commerce commission act does not confer power on the commission to make rules to apply to shipments which originate outside the United States. Tbe great question now Is the mat ter ot shipping from manufacturing centers to foreign ports and Import ing goods Into this country. WHY CHANLERS Ql'AKKKLED. Hostile Criticism ot Amrlie Rives' Noval Was Cause. CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., Oct. 17. John Armstrong Chanler, for mer husband of Ameria Rives, the -authoress, and brother of Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler, Democratic can didate for governor of New York, took the stand today in his own be half In the Insanity proceedings be fore Commissioner Booth. The ob ject of the suit is to establish legally Chanter's sanity and to recover bis fortune, which he alleges has been confiscated by the New York courts. Mr. Chanler testified that one of the causes for the ill-feeling tbat ex ists between him and his brothers was that at tbe time of his engage ment to Amelle Rives one of his brothers, Wlnthrop Aston Chanler, sent him a copy of her book, "The Quick and the Dead," with hostile criticism marked on the margin in blue pencil. He showed this to his fiancee, the result being that she did not Invite his brothers and sisters to the wedding, the single exception be ing Margaret Livingston Chanler, now Mrs. Richard Aldrlch. LARGE PRICE FOR PICTURE. The National Gallery Pays 9120,000 for One Painting. LONDON, Oct. 17. When the an nouncement was recently made that the National gallery had secured an unknown example of Franzs Hals, at the enormous and unprecedented price of about $125,000, the English public and a majority of the news papers mildly protested. Now that several qualified critics have had an 'opportunity ot examining the "dis covery" a better feelings prevails, and the public Is now wondering if, after all, the director of the trustees ot the National gallery have not stolen a march on the other great galleries of the world in securing one ot the few great examples of the Dutch master to be had for love or money. One ot the most popular of Hals' pictures, "The Laughing Cavalier," Is, of course. In the hands of the British nation, and hangs In the Wal lace collection. For that, too, an unprecedented price was paid. In deed, It was the purchase of that pic ture by Lord Hartford at an auction sale In Paris for 110.000 that started the rise In Hals. Previous to that time 1250 was the highest that had ever been paid, In England at any rate, for a picture by the Haarlem painter and the dealers and collectors present at the Paris auction sale were almost howled off their feet when the English peer opened the bidding with his 110,000 offer. There was no opposition, and the pic ture was Immediately knocked down to tbe open-banded marquis. Since then the record baa been fre quently broken, and at the Secretan sale In Paris more than 122,000 was bid for tbe portrait of Pleter van de Broecke d'Anvers. These big prices were for single portraits, while the present picture which the British nation has acquir ed contains no less than ten figures. It Is 8 feet 4 Inches In width by 4 feet 11 Inches In height. The history of the now famous pic ture is obscure. Its owner, up to a few weeks ago, was Lord Talbot ot Malahide, an Irish nobleman, who little suspected Its real value. A cleaner called In to renovate his col lection recognized ft as a Hals, com municated with the National gallery, and after delicate negotiations the deal was closed. Curiously enough It Is believed In some quarters that investigations will show that It is really the painting known as the 'Portrait Group of Van Goyen, the Painter and His Family," which was sold In a London salesroom in 1832 for the absurdly small sum of $250. MARTIV FOUND GUILTY. Jury Renders Verdict of Manslaugh ter in Portland Case. PORTLAND. Or., Oct. 17. The jury In the case of E. H. Martin, charged with the murder of Nathan Wolff, the pawnbroker of this city, on May 1, this afternoon return- ed a verdict ot manslaugh- ter. The jury was out 25 hours. The verdict is con- sldered to be a compromise one. PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 17. Ed ward H. Martin's fate was placed In the hands of the Jury early yesterday afternoon, after a final plea had been made for his conviction of the mur der of Nathan Wolff, and Circuit Judge Cleland bad given final In structions to the jury as to the man ner in which they should go about solving the intricate murder mystery. At 2 p. m. the court began deliver ing his charge to the jury, a process which consumed 14 minutes. The 12 men were then delivered to the cus tody ot the bailiff and taken Into a closed room for deliberation. They filed from the courtroom at 2:16 o'clock. During the climax of the trial Mar tin was In a most serious mood, but the moment the jury had left the room there was a relaxation from the strain and he began talking good-naturedly with his lawyers. "I think they'll be back here in a little while and then t can go home," he suggested, optimistically. CUT HUSBAND'S BODY UP. Aged Woman's Final Revenge for a Life's Troubles. SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. 17. In the Superior court ot Kitsap county began today the trial of the aged and feeble Mrs. Madeline King on a charge of murdering and burning the body ot her husbandt who was a rancher ot Olalla, In that county. The crime was committed last June and the months of incarceration In the county jail have completely brok en down the health ot the accused woman. The crime was not discovered un til a week or ten days after It had been committed. Mrs. King admit ted chopping up her husband's body and burning It, but denied that she killed him. She declared be died in a chair In their little home, located In a remote part ot the county, and that recalling the cruel treatment she received from him, she became angered, hacked his body to pieces with an ax, then burned his remains. A neighbor who happened to pass the King home noticed the woman raking the bones Into the fire, and notified the authorities at Port Orch ard. The woman told how she hit her husband on the head with a mal let, then put his body Into a wheel barrow, wheeled it out Into the or chard. BIBLE ARGUMENT. Iead to leath of One and Fatal Accident Another. WALLACE, Idaho, Oct. 19 As a result of a quarrel as to whether there Is a Deity and whether the statements of the Bible are based on mythology, Peter Rukavana and George Mellck are both dead at Taft, a settlement near here.

OF INTEREST Daily Thought. Do all the good you can and make as little fuss as possible about It. Dickens. Ilaki-d Herring. Clean four of the fish and cut off their heads. Peel and slice thin two good-sized onions and fry them In two tablespoonfuls of butter until lightly browned, then put them over the fish In a baking tin. add a cup ful of stewed tor canned) tomatoes. a pinch of thyme, one tablespoonful each of oil and vinegar, halt a cup ful of water, and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle with a little flour and put some little bits ot butter over them. Bake for an hour In a moderate oven. New Beet Pickles. Boll new beets until tender, slice and put into cans while hot. Have weak vinegar boiling hot and add two tablespoonfuls of sugar and a little salt for each quart can. Seal same as fruit and keep in a dark place. Lavender Bags as Christmas Gifts. One girl has had a bappy inspira tion this summer. She is visiting at a quaint old home where a bed of lavender thrives, and she Is making fascinating little bags of lavender and placing them away carefully for Christmas gifts especially to ehose young matrons who are glorying In the mysteries of a linen closet. Lavender has such a quaint and unobtrusive fragrance that In poetry you see, as well as In every-day judg ment, It Is singled out as the appro priate perfume tor household linen and lingerie. The girl is making charming sachet bigs ot lavender silk, and these she covers with dotted swlss and ties with lavender ribbons; oth ers are made of silk In the faintest of lavender shades and are left un covered. But the prettiest of all Is the little bag of scrim upon which Is worked In old-time cross-stitch a basketful of posies. This makes a quaint little gift for the newly Installed matron. To put with lingerie the lavender tied In a fair linen bag with lavender ribbon is daintiest. Walking Hints. It is no longer correct to tilt the body forward, keep yourself straight as an Indian, tbat an imaginary plumb line dropped between the shoulders will tall unimpeded to the heels. Keep the chest well back and the abdomen In; then start out for a walk with some definite purpose in view. Never allow the muscles ot the lower limbs to become tense through tne rapidity ot your walking, which only Impedes your progress by inter rupting the movement from hip to toot, and results In a gait disastrous, awkward and unbeautiful. Wifle. His wife's away And he today Bemoans his fate and wishes He hadn't let The total get To twenty thousand dishes. Washington Herald. A Goldenrod Breakfast. "This is a pretty country enter tainment, and the one In mind was given under wldespreading trees on the lawn of a pretty suburban home," says a writer In Woman's Home Companion. "Great bunches of goldenrod were dug up and transplanted into Jardi nieres and arranged on the lawn, with the grass as a carpet and the trees as a canopy. "Two tables were used. In the center ot one was a large, gilded. flaring-shaped basket filled with the goldenrod, and tied on the handle was a butterfly bow of pale yellow tulle, and festoons of the same ex tended to the four corners, where were placed four small baskets, also tied with bows of the tulle. The second table was resplendent with tall cut-glass vases filled with the flowers, and glass candlesticks with yellow candles and shades. The play cards were white, edged with gold. "Gold-banded china was used and the same golden tint carried out in the menu. Canteloupes, cream, eggs, cheese and frozen oranges In orange peel baskets all will help to carry out the golden color." Beauty Secrets. If you must ware your hair on curlers or kids, do It after your hus band has left the house for the day, and not at night. Just Imagine what a fright you look with your hair, the crowning beauty of a woman, done In two tlgbt little braids at the bark and six or seven hornlike projections In the front. And don't leave your false hair In full sight on the bureau. Can you conceive how like a wild animal or a scarecrow you must look to him, when he views you In the morning light? Can you blame him tor thinking the smart-looking women he sees more fascinating than his wife? Remember, he has not seen them With the Salad Connie. Stuffed olives chopped fine, mixed with a cream cheese and made Into balls or shaped Into a loaf to be TO OUOmEri served with a cheese knife form a de licious accompaniment to the salad course. In curl papers. To arrange the hair for the night, divide It and tie the front part loose ly on top with a big bow of ribbon, then braid the back in two braids, and tie the ends with ribbon. This Is so much neater and more attract ive than to do It up on curlers or leave It done up as It has been all day. . A man once said that any woman who wore her hair In kids or curlers in the presence of her husband de served to lose his love. Blue Linen Covers. Useful covers for table and side boards are of blue linen, hemstitched and edged with Irish peasant lace. Tbe linen may In fact, must be coarse. Blue does not soli easily, whllo the lace is all that could be desired made ot linen thread and quite Inexpensive. If the cover Is Intended for tbe sideboard the lace and hemstitching need be only on three sides; tbe selv edge serving for the side nearest the wall. The hems of these covers should be about two inches broad. Covers in colors are particularly adapted to seashore and country houses, but covers of natural linen, edged with white lace, are handsome enough to be used anywhere. The Irish peasant lace is a really beauti ful fabric, though It Is too heavy for any purpose save for household fur nishing. Coffee and Tea. While many people laugh and scoff at the Idea of tea and coffee having a most distressing effect upon the ner vous system. It Is a proved fact, and one that ought to receive attention from nervously Inclined people. If your nerves are bothering you and It is impossible for you to take the needed rest try going without tea or coffee for a week or two. Notice the beneficial effect it will have on your nerves. If you feel the need of something warm to drink, hot milk will be a good substitute and prove more healthful than tea or coffee. Dame Fashion. Muffs for the approaching season are Immense. An air of severity marks the hand somest of the gowns. Many fashion prophets predict a green" winter. Jumpers still hold their own, es pecially for girls. Silks and other materials for fall are as thin as ever. POINTED PARAGRAPHS. (Chicago News.) Wasted time today means extra work tomorrow. A man's ideal husband Is the hus band of his wife. Whiskey might improve with age If people would let It. When a wise man falls in love his wisdom takes a vacation. Time may wait for no man, yet it manages to get blm in the end. The under dog Is entitled to sym pathy If he didn't start the fuss. Never look backward unless you can profit by the mistakes you have made. When a man starts out to look for fun he manages to uncover a lot of trouble. ADMINISTRATRIX' NOTICE.
