HEARING AT RITZVILLE Washington Commission Listens to Complaints of Shippers, Who De Clare Freight Tariff to Coast Points Is Exorbitant. SPOKANE, Wash., May 12. (Special.) Admission that the rate on wheat from Ritzville and Odessa to the Coast is de termined by the "all-the-trafflc-will-bear" method, and that the traffic managers have no idea of the cost of production or operating expenses, was forced from PROMISING CAREER ASTORIA, Or., May 12. (Spe cial.) James D'Armon Taylor, the young mining engineer of this city who was Instantly killed in a mining shaft at 1 Ofo, Mexico, on April 30, was a young: man with prospects of an exceptionally brilliant future in his chosen profession. . He was the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Taylor and a grandson of the late Colonel James Taylor, an Oregon pioneer of 1845. The deceased was born In this c(ty on December 28, 1880, and at the time of his death was 27 years old. After attending- the local schools for, a number of years he served an apprentice ship as a machinist at the Astoria Iron Works and 1 a t.e r completed a course in mining engineering at the Uiflverslty of California. When the gold dis coveries were reported in Ne vada, he went to Ooldfield, where he remained four years, gaining such a reputation as an engi neer that last January he re ceived and accepted a flattering offer from the El . Oro Mining Company to take charge of its mines in El Oro, Mexico, where he was employed at the time of t ORenry Blakeley and J. M. Costello, as sistant traffic managers, respectively, of the Northern Pacific and Great Northern, at the hearing before the State Railway Commission at Ritzville today. The Commission is hearing a complaint 'filed by 500 farmers In the violnlty of Ritzville, alleging that the rate on wheat is unreasonably high and should be re duced. It will cdnclude In Spokane to morrow. The admissions of the traffic managers that they have no knowledge of the value of the railroad property, fixed charges or operating expenses is important for the reason that the United States Su preme Court has decided that these are the 'basic principles upon which to de termine rates! Both Mr. Blakajey and Mr. Costello admitted that the rates to the Coast are fixed largely upon their recommendations. All of this evidence was furnished in minutest detail by the Commission's expert, O. O. Calderhead. who showed that a reasonable rate on wheat from Ritzville to Tacoma and Odessa to Seattle, based on operating expenses and fixed charges, is $2.60 a ton, whereas the rate is $3.40: also that a reasonable rate from Garfield Is $3.28, whtle the actual rate is $3.85. This is the first hearing on which the committee has set to determine reasonableness of rates, since it has had compiled information regarding -alue of property, fixed charges and operating . expenses of roads and the decision will be of vast Importance. Most of the hearing yesterday was taken up with testimony introduced by tho railroads to show that the wheat growers are making a big profit and are therefore not entitled to a reduc tion in rates. The Commission declared the testi mony Irrevelant, but admitted It for the general information It contains. ITALIANS HAVE A GUX FIGHT Section Hand Wounds Brother After Paying HisWay From Italy.
