Count Zeppelin, disappointed but not discouraged, hurried here today to su perintend the salvage of his latest aerial model, the great airship Deutsch land, which came to grief yesterday. The count will be 72 years old on Friday of next week. He has an en gagement for the near future to fly from Friedrlckshafen to Vienna and exhibit his Invention to Emperor Fran cis Joseph, and purposes to make good his promise. The prospects for early resumption of the passenger service, however, are' not bright. The airship company announces that the accident will necessitate a suspen sion for several months of the adver tised excursions. After hours of perilous flight, during which It was driven hither and thither at the caprice of the gale, the Deutsch land found desperate refuge in the trees of Teutoburger Wald. Its frame work was wrenched and the great en velope badly torn. The 32 passengers, including 20 newspaper men, had nar row escapes. . It was found today that it would be necessary to dismantle the airship, and this was begun. During the operation today a mem ber of the crew was severely injured. Throughout tie night 200 soldiers stood guard about the clump of trees in the branches of which the airship was lodged. Today the soldiers were oocupled with restraining the thous ands of persons who flocked from miles around. The next voyage of the Deutschland will be made with Count Zeppelin at the helm. DOUBLE DEATH MYSTERY Musician and CouTt Singer Shot. One May Be Suicide. STUTTGART. Germany, June 29. Dr. Aloys Obrist, the famous musical con ductor, and Anna Sutter, a court sing er, were found dead together today. Both had been shot. Appearances in dicate that one had been murdered and that the other had committed suicide. Dr. Obrist was born at San Re mo, Italy, In 1867. He conducted the royal opera here in 1907 and 1908. The discovery of the bodies of the , musician and his woman companion was a shock not only to Dr. Obrist's in timates In musical, circles, but to the public at large, among which he was a notable figure. Mystery surrounds th affair, but the impression is strong that me same nana KUlea both. Dr. Obrist was of Swiss-Scotch de scent. His mother came from the north of Scotland and his father's family have been engaged either in the government service or in agriculture In the vicinity of Zurich for 600 years. Dr. Obrist had made Weimar his home since is io, ana ror many years had oc cupied the villa Allsa. He was a di rector of the Liszt Museum, and was appointed royal conductor by the King of Wurtemburg.

JOHS W. RATE CUT SWEEPING Effect on Railroads' Revenues to Be Determined. ENFORCEMENT IS DELAYED Commission Holds Water Competi tion to Spokane Is Not Material. Southern Pacific Bnsiness in Nevada Is Hard Hit. (Continued From First Page.) made by taking 75 per cent of the ter minal rates, is founded upon facts which do not exist and is constructed on a theory which cannot be approved by the Commission." The rates established for the future are materially lower approximately 20 per cent on both classes and com modities but they will not be effect ive immediately. Horizontal Reductions Ordered. In fixing the rates to Spokane the Com mission did not use the rates to Seattle as a standard, but adjusted the rates to Spokane upon what is considered to be a reasonable basis, taking into account that water competition at Spokane was not material. Then the Commission held aa follows: 'Joint through rates, both class and commodity, should be established from defined territories east of Chicago to Spokane. Through Rates Needed. "Where joint through rales do not now exist from points east of Chicago upon certain lines to Spokane, the Commission finds there is no reasonable and satis factory through route, and such through routes and Joint rates ought to be estab lished. "Both class and commodity rates should be slightly lower from Mississippi River points to Spokane than from Chicago points.!' The defendant lines maintained that if material reductions were made the result would be disastrous. In view of the reductions that necessarily would have to be made elsewhere. In addition, the Northern Pacific showed that since the first decision in the Spokane case in the Spring of 1907 it had expended approximately 193,000, 000, and the Great Northern showed it had . expended $75,000,000 in better ments. The Commission says: "These sums would in each case equal approximately 25 per cent of the entire cost of reproduction as found by the Commission and would, if not accom panied by increased earnings, perhaps justify the claim to a greater return. An examination 6f the nature of these expenditures does not. however, lead to the conclusion that they can have any legitimate bearing. Other Rates to Conform. In the Spokane opinion It was . also held that the rates to Baker City. La Grande and Pendleton, Or., and Walla Walla, Wash., were excessive, insofar as they exceeded the new rates fixed to Spokane. Substantially the same state of af fairs existed at Reno and other points which had to pay the rates to San Francisco and the back haul local rates from San Francisco or Sacramen to to the point of ultimate festlnction. These local rates In most Instances amounted to two-fifths or more of the entire, rate from Eastern points of ori gin to Pacific Coast terminals. As noted above, the decisions of the Commission in these cases affect all class and commodity rates between Eastern points and the far Y7-st. No complaint was made in any of the cases of the rates of the Eastern lines between Atlantic points and Mississip pi River transfers, and all of the reduc tions ordered by the Commission affect the rates from Mississippi River and Missouri River transfer points to Pa cific Coast terminals and inter-mountain territorial points. In the Nevada and Arizona cases, in cluding the Sacramento - Reno case against the Southern Pacific Company, the Railroad Commission of Nevada against the Southern Pacific Company and the Maricopa County Commercial Company against the Atchison, Topeka Sc. Santa Fe and other carriers, the de cisions were prepared by Commission er Franklin K. Lane. Rate Is "Unprecedented." In each of them a heavy reduction in class rates is ordered, some of the re ductions being as high as 33 1-3 per cent. The commission finds that the existing rates are "practically without precedent or parallel" In the United Estates. xne average race per ton per mile on au 10 classes Irora Sacramento to Reno is 9.16 cents, an unprecedented figure. The class rates between Sacramento and Reno are reduced approximately DANIEL. 80 per cent, the rate on first - class freight being lowered from $1.29 per 100 pounds to 85 cents. Similar reduc tions in the class rates are made from Sacramento to other points in Nevada and Utah. In some cases the reduc tions reach 60 per cent. In the case of the Railroad Commis sion of Nevada against the Southern Pacific Company and other carriers, the Commission condemns the existing west-bound class rates from Eastern points to Nevada. In this connection the Commission de clares these rates to be the "highest rrain-line rates found In the United States." For carrying a carload of first-class traffic containing 20,000 pounds from Omaha to Reno, the Union and South ern Pacific lines charge $858. If the same carload goes 154 miles farther, to Sacramento, the charge is but $600. The fust-class rate to the more distaot point, Sac.-amento, is S3 per 100 pounds, and the nearer point, Reno, $4.29 per 100 pounds. Distance Makes oX Difference. If the same carload of freight orig inates at Denver, 500 miles west of Omaha, the same rates to Reno and Sacramento apply; and if the freight originates at Boston, 1700 miles east of Omaha, the rates are the same. The commission finds that only 25 per cent of the traffic into Reno from the Fast originates east of Chicago, while 75 per cent originates between Chicago and Denver. Turning to the -division of earnings be tween carriers on traffic from the East to Reno, the commission finds that the lion's share accrues to the Southern Pa cific Company. It is significant, as indicated in the opinion, that the lines east of Ogden, Utah, receive exactly the same divis ions out of the so-called "water com petition" rates to Pacific Coast ter minal points as they receive out of the vastly higher rates to Nevada points, "the entire difference being appropri ated by the Southern Pacific Com pany." Astonishing facts were developed con cerning the earning capacity of the Pa cific lines. The Commission shows that "during the last two years the operating revenues of the Southern Pacific Com pany's Pacific system had Increased $8,000,000, while its operating expenses had decreased $5,000,000, thus producing an increased operating income of over $12,000,000, or a net increase of about $2000 per mile of road." Central's Rates Highest. Referring to other lines of the Pacific" system, the Commission says: "If we take the Central Pacific alone. we find -it third in the list of Pacific Coast roads in tons carried and the highest of all in freight earnings per mile $13,453. per mile in 1907. While it is one of three railroads in the West carrying over a million tons of freight per mile of road, the earnings of the Central Pacific per mile are 65 per cent greater than the average in the United States and 100 per cent greater than the average of the roads west of Chicago." Present class rates in both directions between Chicago and the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers on the one hand, and Utah points on the other, are held by the commission to be unjust and un reasonable, and material reductions are proposed, but no order on either class or commodity freight rates from East ern defined territory to Utah will be made until account of the present and proposed rates for the months of July, August and September can be obtained. This conclusion Is reached in the case of the Commercial Club of Salt Lake City against the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway Company and other carriers. Passenger Fares Cut, Too. The Commission also orders the car riers to reduce their rates on fruits from California to Utah common points. The passenger fares between Utah common points and Omaha and Port land are not found to be unreasonable, as alleged, but the fares between Salt Lake City and Los Angeles, Salt Lake City and San Francisco, and between Ogden and Provo and San Francisco are declared to be unreasonable and they are ordered reduced. The petition for a rehearing was filed in accordance with the terms of the order of May 81. permitting it to be presented within SO days. The compli ance with the order has the effect of staying the mandate of the court until the beginning of the next term in Oc tober. Thus the railroads temporarily at least are relieved of the necessity of reducing their rates.- All of the Western roads are affect ed. The court originally sustained 'the reduction ordered by the . Interstate Commerce Commission. Petitions for rehearings were filed by the roads to day. Wisconsin Society to Be Formed. SALEM. Or., June 29. (Special.)

Spring Valley Wine Co, Twelve Men Disagree and Report "No Verdict" " After Being Out 115 Hours Vote Is Eight to Four for Conviction. CHICAGO. June 29. The jury In Judge W. H. McSurely's division of the Criminal Court that heard the case against Lee O'Neil Browne, the Il linois legislative minority leader, charged with bribing Representative Charles A. White to vote for William Lorimer for United States Senator, dis agreed and voted "no verdict" today. Jury Packed, Says Wayman. Scarcely had announcement of a- mis trial in the case been made today than State's Attorney Wayman declared that the jury had been packed. Speaking to the reporters he said: "This is the most flagrant case of Jury fixing I have ever seen. It would seem that this courtroom was con structed to make it easy to 'flag the Jurors and this case is a good example. The Jury was packed from the start. "One Juror was the kingpin of them all. It Is strange that men who have been hanging about the courtroom day after day, almost minute after minute, should have been detected In building across the street from the Juryroom and should walk off arm In arm with Jurors who stood for acquittal." Mr. Wayman declared that the Jury at one time stood 11 to 1 for conviction. Signals Used, Charge. The state's attorney declared that men had been signalling Jurors from the windows of a hotel across the street from the criminal court build ing. "I won't have those fellows around the courtroom again, flagging the Jur ors, he added. "If they attempt it In the next trial or In any other trial, I shall have them arrested at once. One of the Jurors told me there was enough evidence to con vict 60 men. Three men confessed to receiving bribes and yet there were four men on that Jury who failed to convict, A pretty state of affairs. Sensations Caused. Mr. Wayman's comments caused a sensation, and when reporters later re verted to the subject the State's At torney sought to modify his remarks. The jury was out 115 hours, the long est session by 41 hours .ever held by Jury in Chicago. Twenty-four ballots were taken, the count throughout stand ing eight for conviction and four for ac quittal. The Jurors who stood for acquittal were: Charles S. Spare, William R. Lowe. William H. Henessy and Walter J. Hermanson. One juror, Arthur S. Townsend. was asked if there was any fighting in the jury room. "I should say not," he answered with a laugh. "They were a jolly good bunch and we had a fine time. We all stuck to our views. The arguments were warm at times, but we all recognized the rights of others to their own opin ions." Juror Spare Talks. Juror Spare, who was reported to be hanging the Jury, confirmed Town send's version of the session. "It was always 8 to 4," he said, "and I don't believe we could have agreed had we stayed till doomsday." Judge McSurely said he would hear a motion for a new trial a week from today. Lee O'Neil Browne, leader of the Democratic minority in the State House of Representatives, ' was charged spe cifically with having paid Representa tive Charles A. White to cast his vote for William Lorimer for United States Senator. White was the principal wit ness for the state. Representatives H. J. C. Breckmeyer and Michael S. Link also testified that they had received $1000 ach for their Lorimer votes. The alleged promise to pay White the bribe is said to have been made at Spring field, where Browne is under indict ment charged with bribery. MAYOR HELD FOR MURDER El Paso Executive Accused of Kill ing Postmaster. EL PASO, Tex., June 29.
