AMPLE AUTHORITY
F. K. Lane Writes That Inter
state Commerce Law Cov
ers Trans-Shipments.
BOTH RATES BE PUBLIC
Railroad Magnates Aware That Rul
ing Is Unassailable and That In
land Rates From Seaboard
Must Be . Made Known. .
WASHINGTON, Sept. . That the In
terstate Commerce Commission has
ample jurisdiction over the foreign com
merce of the United States while moving
between seaboard and Interior points, is
net forth in a letter written by Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Lane to the
rracoma Chamber of Commerce and made
public today. In his letter Mr. Lane
aavs:
The Interstate commerce act Is by Its
terms applicable to the transportation
of 'property shipped from any place In
the United States to a foreign country
and' carried from such Dlace to a port
of trans-shtDment. or shipped from
foreign country to any place In the Unit
ed States and carried to such place rrom
a port of entry either in the United
States or an adjacent foreign country.
Has Jurisdiction Over Commerce.
"It thus appears the Commission has
ample Jurisdiction over the foreign com
tnerce of the United States, while moving
betwen the seaboard and Interior points.
It logically and necessarily follows that
the rate for the inland movement to or
from the seaboard must be filed and pub
lished in order to comply with the ex
press provisions of the law. A con
trary holding would deprive the Com
mission of all Jurisdiction over foreign
commerce if Joint rates only were re
quired to be published: the proportion of
each carrier being unknown, tne law
could easily be set at naught through
collusion between the railroads and ocean
carriers. Rebates and preferences could
be granted at will. No punishment could
be Imposed for making a concession irom
a Joint rate of this character as it would
be Impossible to connect the offense with
the carrier over which alone the Com
mission has control. ,
Ruling In Accord With Law.
That this ruling is In accord with the
law is not questioned. The railroads have
not gone into court to have the Com
mission enjoined, because they know its
position is legally unassailable. The
whole difficulty arises from their re
luctance to make public the inland pro-
Dortlons of these Joint rates. Their earn-
lncs on this traffic are so small that they
fear the dissatisfaction of domestic ship
pers and the complaints that would fol
low. "The Commission is urged to reverse its
ruling upon the ground that it Is doing
eerlous Injury to the Pacific trade. If
this were so, it would not reflect upon
the Commission's ruling, but would argue
against the advisability of the law, which
the Commission is charged to enforce.
However, there is good authority for the
position that the ruling in question is
not the cause of the depression In the
raeific trade.
Xot Suspected of Undue Regard.
"Messrs. Hill and Harrlman are some
what widely known as railroad men.
Neither is suspected of undue regard for
the Interstate Commerce Comisslon,
yet when interviewed with respect to the
unsatisfactory condition of the Pacific
trade it does not occur to them to place
the responsibility with the Interstate
Commerce Commission."
Mr. Lane adds that for some time the
Pacific trade has been in difficulty. Ever
increasing competition on the part of
Japanese steamship lines, heavily subsi
dized and economically operated, has
crowded our American vessels hard.

IRRIGATION CONGRESS OPEN
tontinuerf From First Pae.)
of natural resources. The second let
ter was addressed to the local board
of control, replying to an invitation on
gold plate recently conveyed to the
President. A postscript at the bottom
of this letter aroused wild enthusiasm
among the delegates and spectators, as
it was read by Secretary Fowler. The
President wrote:
Roosevelt for Statehood.
I earnestly hope that this Winter I
hall have a chance to sign bills con
ferring statehood on both New Mexico
and Arizona."
The congress unanimously directed
Its officers to reply to the message by
a telegram with an expression of
thanks for the favorable expression
toward New Mexico and Arizona.
Addresses of welcome were made by
Mayor G. H. Lester. Albuquerque, and
iJovernor Curry, of New Mexico, and j
President F. C. Goudy. of Denver, in
response, made the opening address
to the congress. The afternoon ses
sion was occupied by brief responses
to the address of welcome.
Some time was devoted to the report of
the officers of the congress and to read
ing communications, among them being
a letter from Chief Forester Gilford
Pinchot and a telegram from W. EL
Smythe. of California, founder of the
congress, who was to have delivered an
address at the afternoon session, but who
is unable to attend.
Ex-Governor L. B. Prince, of New
Mexico, delivered the closing address of
the session, his subject being "Yester
day and Today."
Mr. Smythe's address was read and
made a part of the record.
The Illinois delegation In caucus to
night declared for Spokane for the next
meeting place, indorsed George H. Bar
stow, of Texas, for president, and F. H.
Griswold. of Chicago, for secretary. The
California delegation has also declared
for Spokane.

elgn countries. Addresses were. mj-i by
delegates from France, England, Spain,
Portugal, Italy. Cape Colony, Canada,
Cuba, Porto Rico, Brazil and several of
the Mexican states.
A demonstration lasting several min
utes was made when a military band
sent here by the government of Mexico
played - "The Star-Spangled Banner" st
the opening of the session. The singing
of the "Irrigation Ode" by a chorus of
100 voices aroused enthusiasm.
A notable feature of the congress is
the absence of men prominent or active
in political affairs, and the presence of
an unusual number of men who are ac
tive workers in the practical fields of
reclamation, and who make up a list of
speakers of exceptional strength. The
usual exposition, for which Congress ap
propriated J30.000. and which has brought
together the finest display of irrigated
products ever assembled in the United
States, was formally opened this morning
by Governor Curry, of New Mexico, fol
lowing a parade of the troops of the
Department of the Colorado, ordered here
for the exposition. General Bell.' Chief
of Staff, and Brigadier-General Thomas,
commanding the Department of the Colo
rado, took part in the parade.
A vigorous fight is under wav Between
Pueblo. Colo., and Spokane. Wasn, for
the next session of the congress.
Mr. Goudy declared "that the work of
this association will not be finished
until all the flood waters in the arid
and semi-arid sections shall have been
Impounded for irrigation, power and
other useful purposes. It will not be
finished till we have worked out the
(Treat problem of saving our forests,
especially the forests at the head
waters of our irrigation streams." He
recommended the creation of irrigation
districts, that the people might provide
their own irrigation works.
TFAST
ALASKA STEAMER WRECKED
PASSENGERS ALL- SATED.
Vessel In Dangerous Position With
Hole in Side, and Hopes of
Saving Steamer Are Slight.
SEATTLE. Sept. 29. In a fog so dense
this morning that objects but a few feet
distant were not distinguishable the
steamer Humboldt, bound from South
eastern Alaska ports, piled on the rocks
of Mouatt Point, a rocky promontory on
Pender Island, off the Vancouver Island
coast. The 38 passengers were trans
ferred to the fishing steamship Edith and
returned to Seattle tonight.
The position of the Humboldt, follow
ing severe damages sustained in ground
ing, is such as to convince officers of
the Edith that only slight nope ot saving
the vessel can be entertained. The en
tire stem and foreshoe of the steamer
were carried away by the collision and
a hole bored in the starboard now.
The scene of the grounding Ie six miles
south of Active Pass, a notable piece of
difficult navigation along the shore of
Vancouver Island between Victoria and
Vancouver. On a northwesterly course
the Humboldt had left the fog signal
station at Turn Point, six miles astern,
and was four miles from Port Lock, the
next aid to navigation. Within an hour
after stranding, with the tide at its
height the Humboldt rested with her
wrecked bow high out of water, a jagged
hole being elevated above the water line
by the tilting ternward of the sh. bhe
was heavily listed shoreward, or to the
starboard, and with a depth of water
ranging from six to seven fathoms from
midships to the stern.
Passengers of the Humboldt state that
through the encouragement given by the
steamers officers, little excitement pre
vailed aboard.

TAKEN AFTER FIGHT
Officers Capture Two Cottage
Grove Thugs at Divide.
FIRES AT FLASH OF PISTOL
Marshal Snodgrass Wounds Desper
ate Robber in Arm With Shotgun
Old Man Had Been Held Up
and Beaten on Head.
COTTAGE GROVE, Or., Sept. 29. Spe
cial.) After a desperate battle in which
one of the thugs was badly wounded by
Marshal Snodgrass, the two men' who
held-up and beat old man DeWald last
night, were captured at Divide station
early this morning.
As soon as the hold-up was known and
DeWald could give a description of the
thugs. Marshal Frank Snodgrass, assisted
by Special Deputies Frank Hickey, James
Potts and Fred Battels, watched care
fully every avenue of escape from the
city. Every hobo who could be found
was lined up and examined and brought
before the victim for identification.
Snodgrass, with his assistants, then
went to Divide, five miles distant. An
hour passed, when two men put in an
appearance on the wagon road. One
stopped down the road, while the other
advanced to the depot. Bartels ordered
his man to stop. Marshal Snodgrass,
who had not as yet seen the hobo,
stepped clear of the depot to get the
location of the men. At this moment,
robber No. 1 opened fire with a revolver.
Officer Promptly Returns Fire,
Snodgrass returned the fire with
shotgun. As soon as the robber located
Snodgrass by the flash of his gun, he
sent another bullet to the officer, missing
the mark by a small margin. The officer
fired again, and then tnere was a mo
ment's lull, when the thug took another
crack at the officer. At the flash of the
revolver. Snodgrass turned loose another
charge of BB shot.
There being no response. Snodgrass and
his men turned their attention to the
second robber, who was still standing in
his tracks. Placing him under arrest
the officers were surprised to hear thug
No. 1 call out not to leave a fellow to
bleed to death.
Going In the darkness in the direction
of the call, they found the thug. Call
ing on him to throw up his hands, he
managed to get one up but Snodgress'
markmanshlp had put the otlier arm
badly out of commission.
A team was procured and by 1 o'clock
this morning the two thugs were safely
landed in this city. One was locked, up
and the other taken to the Thompson
Hotel for surgical treatment. . He was
found to be severely wounded, 21 BB
shot having taken effect, mostly, how
ever, in the arm. The man claimed that
Snodgrass hit him twice.
The thugs would give no names. Both
men answer to the description given by
Mr. .DeWald, who also described the re
volvers thev carried.
Lodged in Jail at Eugene.
Prosecuting Attorney Bryson arid
Sheriff Bown arrived here this after
noon and held the - preliminary exam
ination of the two men' captured this
morning. The man who had the gun
play with Marshal Snodgrass gave hie
name as Harry Murphy, the other an
swering to the name of R.M. Harvey.
They were charged with an assault
with a dangerous weapon with attempt
to kill. Both men waived examination,
and were taken to Eugene on the even
ing train.
An important piece of evidence was
unearthed this afternoon. Upon exam
ination of Murphy's Colt's revolver. It
was found that a piece of the rubber
handle was broken off. As Murphy was
wounded in the little finger of his gun
hand, it was thought that the handle
of the gun was broken by the shot.
Later the missing piece was found in
the Dewald store, where the struggle
took place.
