To avoid a reduction of Its present
Tt-s for the shipment of classified
freight to points In Oregon, the South
ern Pacific Is jutting; up a hard fltsl.t

verton. Gilbert and Rean at en banc
for four hours resterday afternoon lis
tening; to the arguments of J. X. Teal,
representing the State Railroad Com
mission, and W. D. Kenton, represent
ing the' Southern Pacific
The rate case was taken Into court
yesterday on the application of the
Southern Taclflc for a preliminary In
junction restraining the Railroad Com
mission from enforcing the reduction
In the tariff, which was made on class
freight September II. Inst.
Judge Gilbert announced from the
bench that a decision would be made
by the court as soon as possible. The
attorneys were asked to file briefs, or
In their place memoranda of the au
thorities cited. A temporary restrain
ing order, preventing the commission
from enforcing the new tariff, was
granted by Judge Wolverton when the
suit was filed several months ago. and
will remain in force until the three
Judges decide the motion for the pre
liminary Injunction.
Apparent Discrepancy Cited.
Attorney Teal-called attention In his
argument to an apparent discrepancy
between the estimate of the loss which
would be sustained by the railroad un
der the new tariff, as given In the
corporation's complaint, and that given
in the affidavit of the railroad offi
cials. The complaint, he said, esti
mates the loss at :;.31.80. and the
affidavits at $133,030. In reply. Mr.
Kenton, on behalf of. the company, said
that because only 10 days were allowed
the railroad company to put the new
freight schedule Into effect, it was
necessary to secure all these figures
by telegraph, but that later, when the
affidavits arrived, and when more time
bad been given for figuring what the
osa would be. It was found It would
be less.
Mr. Teal said the gross receipts of
the railroad In 1J09 were t7.104.081,
the gross expenses 5.S3..9S. and the
surplus f 1.264.383. Kor 1910. he said,
tha gross receipts were 18.834.903. the
expenses tt.T91.310. and the surplus
li.04J.i93.
Dividends Are Given.
For the fiscal year ending In June,
1910. be said the railroad could have
declared a dividend of seven per cent
on preferred stock and six per cent on
common stock, and still have had $7S1.
I93 of the earnings on hand, or four
per cent of the capitalization, lie
placed the preferred stock at 1 12,000.
the common stock at $7,000,000. the
bonded Indebtedness at 117.743.000 and
the floating debt at $3.:07.O0S. a total
of t39.93I.008. The value of the prop
erty aa estimated by the railroad itself
Is t43.S94.SSC. he said. Pope's repro
duction estimate places It at t4(.8T9.
:. and the estimate of the engineer
employed by the commission at $30.
3S9.TT. from which was deducted a
ertaln amount for depreciation, giving
$:7.0T3.TTS as the present worth of the
property. ,
Said Mr. Teal: "The company states
In Its complaint that It would be
obliged to raise the rates on other
things than class products If this
change In rates were made. But on
the very lowest grade, they have al
ready advanced the rate SO per cent,
and are before the commission trying
to prevent that advance. They say
that Isn't confiscatory of the public's
money, but that this slight reduction
is confiscatory of their property.
Double Change Not Xeedcd.
They say In the complaint that a
reduction of the local rate will mean
a reduction also of roe through rate.
But they may reduce the local rate,
and It Is not necessary to make the
through rate a part of It.
"These rates are not confiscatory.
If they are not. what Is the court to
arrant an Injunction for? Is it Tor
the court to fix this rate at 60 per
cent or some other per cent? That
would be a legislative act. and not
within the court's power. If this com
mission has not acted unconstitutional
ly. If It has acted within Its Jurisdic
tion, the courts have nothing to do
with it. States have a right to create
these administrative tribunals, and
they have a right to go Into the rate
question, to find out whether rates
are discriminatory."
In reply. Mr. Fenton said. In part:
"Although this matter of class rates
wss taken up by the Railroad Co
mission upon Its own initiative, there
was not a great deal of evidence be
fore It, except that of financial experts
and extensive tables prepared by the
statistician as to rates In Iowa. Illinois
and other states. The pressure upon
the Commission apparently comes from
people who are Interested in the re
daction of the rate In classes four and
five, under which groceries, hardware,
canned goods and such things move.
Investment Is Factor.
"The amount of money Invested In a
railroad ls a very important thing In
determining ratesi hut one class of rail
road economists takes Into consideration
the cost of reproduction. I do not claim
t!t the JlJS.ono or llM.n) reduction In
rate would confiscate all the property
of the railroad, but If this property Is
worth, aa we sav. IC.000.000 and we are
entitled to a net return, exclusive of
such amounts aa vhould not be charred to
capital, and then if we ore entitled to
and I per cent upon our Investment, if
the proof should show that we are only
receiving 2 or 3 pet" cent, then Is It man
ifest that any reduction would be con
fiscatory of the u. of that property pro
tanto. It Is a question for your honors
whether this 1 not taking property with
out due process of law and therefore In
vloVatlcn of the Constitution of the
United Slates.
"I do not see why a railroad should not
be entitled to make 10 or 15 per cent In
Its business. If the rates It fixes are not
excessive. In the gaa case, however, It
was found that per cent was reasonable.
In the Minnesota case it was found that
7 per cent was reasonable.
"The Oregon & California is not oper
ating this property. Th Southern Pa
cific is, ts it were, a clearing-house. The
Oregon California, under its agreement
was to have $5000 a year and the Southern
Pacific was to take all the receipts, pay
all the dl-bursements and have all it put
Into the property In the way of better
ments. "June 30. IS", the Southern Pacific had
advanced to tills property, above what It
had received from the public, over K.0C0.
MX If that money went Into capital It
Is not an operating expense. But that
Is one of the Issues of this case.
They had access to our books. They
nl their representative to San Fran
cksco. They put themselves in the place
of proprietor. Here and there they put
their finger on an Item which they say
should have gone to capital, but which
we think should have gone Into the oper
ating expenses.
'The records show nothing has been
pnM on this stock as a dividend. It is a
matter of common history that the $12,000.-
of preferred stock represents the origi
nal $10.0.'j0 of German money and
floating indebtedness which went Into the
construction of the first 3 miles of this
road, and the $T. stock represents
the accrued Interest of the German bond
holders. When the time csme that they
should take their money, upon the bank
ruptcy of the company, they took pre
ferred stock for the principal and com
mon stock for their interfst. That stock
has been In existence ever since. The
bonded indebtedness is r.OX.000 and
I7.046.OjO of this is outstanding.
The taxes on the land secured by
grant are paid from the proceeds of the
property.
Two Questions Involved.
"Counsll says. 'Why don't you make
an Interstate rate on these shipments to
a point south of Portland and at the same
time put into effect these local ratesr
Suppose we should leave the interstate
rates iii they are now and file with the
Interstate Commerce Commission the
new local rates. The Medford Chamber
of Commerce will then ship from Chi
cago to Portland and reblll to Medford
or it will be compelled to .purchase of
Portland Jobbers instead of Chicago Job
bers. There are Just two questions In
volved: Is Interstate commerce Intel fered
with? and. does this rate confiscate the
company's property?
"Only In the last two years has thU
property baer. productive. Class- 1, affect
ed by competuon. to Eugene, has not
been changed. 1 he sprtud has been
made on the other classes.
"Intrastate freight traffic Is several
times aa expensive as interstate 'raffle.
The road was running at a heavy loss In
1SU6. Complaints were frequent of rusty
rails and bad woouen bridges. It was
the Railroad Commission's purpose to
leave the rates atone until the line could
be rebuilt.
"Twcnty-flve or 30 per cent dividends
might be considered excessive, but not 6
and per cent dividends. Regulation
dotsn't mean proprietorship. If the Inter
locutory injunction Is not granted ours
will be but a barn n victory, though we
may win at the final hearing."
Mr. Teal. In leply, said tne land was
granted tha railroad as an Inducement to
bu'ld the railroad In an ur sett led country.
If t'ie land had been sold to homesteaders,
as the law required, he said, the country
would have been settled up and the rail
road would have profited by the return
In business. II said the land is likely
to prove amply -err.uneratlve to the road
for its loss in traffic.
TRUST CHARGE IS MADE
rXITED TELEPHONE CAXXOT
DISCONNECT LIXES.
Bell Company Is Accused of Using
Unfair Means to Drive Out Com
petition Front Field.
A temporary injunction, restraining the
United Telephone Company from discon
necting Its lines from those of the North
western Long Distance Telephone Com
pany, has been Issued In the Federal
Court. W. D. Tyler, receiver of the
Northwestern Company, Is plaintiff in the
suit upon which the injunction is based,
and the United Telephone Company,
Blaine McCord. James B. Hunt. W. H.
Waterbury and the Pacific Telephone A
Telegraph Company are defendants.
The complaint alleges the Northwest
ern Company had a contract with G. W.
Scrnmblln, who owned local exchanges at
Hubbard, Aurora and Canby. The con
nections between the Northwestern Com
pany and Scramblln'a lines were made In
1907. Scramhlln sold out to the United
Company. Last August or September, It
Is alleged, the Pacific Company connected
secretly wltb the United Company's lines.
In violation of contract between the
United Company and the Northwestern
Company. The United Company, It Is
alleged, purchased from the Pacific Com
pany the local exchange at Woodburn
and made connections with It. A notice
Is alleged to have been served on tha
Northwestern Company to the effect the
United Company would sever connection
with It January 1. 1911. This would have
cut off the United Company's 00 sub
scribers from Northwestern telephone
service.
The Northwestern Company, through Its
receiver, goes on to say that until 1S93
the American Telephone & Telegrayh
Company, known as the "Bell System.
had a monopoly on the telephone busi
ness of the United States, and that the
Pacific Company 'was one of Its sub
sidiary corporations. At that time Its
patent expired. It then had SOO.000 tele
phones in the United States. Competition
for 17 years has caused the Installation
of about 5.OU0.Q0O telephones, it is asserted,
the "Bell System" owning 3.SOO.00O of
these.
Unfair means are alleged by the Inde
pendent Company to have been practiced
by the Bell Company, in the effort to
drive out competition. Jt is alleged to
have employed secret agents to purchase
independent plants, and then allow the
service of these plants to deteriorate and
refuse to extend the service. It is also
alleged that In some cases it cut rates
and gave free service to prevent the suc
cessful operation of competing Companies.
The American Company, or Bell Sys
tem, now controls the Western Union
Telegraph Company, it Is asserted, hav
ing purchased large blocks of Its stock.
The Bell System has elected. It Is said.
Its own board of directors.
Because the Northwestern Company is
in financial straits, continues the com
plaint, the Bell Company Is making stren
uous efforts to undermine its business
and is using unfair means to do so. It
Is charged that it has Induced several
companies to break traffic agreements
with the Northwestern Company.
Tha Portland Independent exchange has
11.0") subscribers, it is asserted. These
and all subscribers served by the inde
pendent company except those in Wood
bum will be deprived of the privilege of
telephoning over Independent lines to the
south.
POLICE SUPPRESS
FIGHT PICTURES
Exhibition to Newspapermen
and City Officials Not Al
lowed by Chief Cox.
BAKER BECOMES ANGERED
Councilman and Lessee, or Bungalow
Theater, Dislikes Action of( Cox
and Says no Has Xo Inten
tion of Showing- Films.
The moving pictures of the Johnson
Jeffries fight, which took place at Reno.
Nev., July 4 last, were nol shown at ths
private exhibition announced for the city
officials and the newspapermen last
night by Walter Reed, manager of the
Bungalow Theater, for Chief of Police
Cox Issued orders not to permit tha
showing of the films under any circum
stances. George L. Baker, a member of the
City Council and lessee of the Bungalow
Theater, where the pictures were to have
been shown, returned to Portland yes
terday and hearing of the controversy
over the films, held a conference with
Mayor Simon, who refused to alter his
decision made Saturday, when the pic
tures were advertised to be shown, and
Mr. Baker assured the Mayor that the
pictures would not be displayed at his
theater If they were considered objec
tionable. Mayor Simon assured Coun
cilman Baker that the pictures were ob
jectionable and the latter Issued orders
at the Bungalow Theater that they be
not shown.
Promptly at 8:30 o'clock a crowd of
something like 200 person, including
newspapermen, city officials and a
squadron of police under the command of
Captain Bailey, were at the theater en
trance waiting to see the show.
linker Is Angry.
When the array of police assembled
last night, Councilman Baker became
angry and said: "I do not see the neces
sity of sending a body of policemen here
to stop these pictures. I had a confer
ence with Mayor Simon this afternoon
and assured him that the pictures would
not be shown in my theater. I had no
knowledge of any controversy over the
pictures, for I only returned to town this
morning. I knew that they were to bo
shown in the theater and had given Mr.
Reed permission to show them, for I
thought there would be no objection, es
pecially since pictures of other fights
as well as actual fights have taken place
in this city In the last year.
"It Bcemi strange to me that the Jeffries-Johnson
pictures should be classed
as any more immoral than were the
pictures of the Johnson-Ketchel, Johnson-Burns,
Wolgast-Nelson, and many
other fight films shown here only re
cently, or half as Immoral as were the
several actual fights which took place
here last Winter, and which were not
Interfered with by the Mayor and the
police.
Antagonism Xot Intended.
"I do not care to antagonize the ad
ministration, nor to have any difficul
ties with the police, for I maintain or
der in all my theaters, and If Mayor
Simon or Chief Cox declare the pictures
immoral, all right. I shall abide by
their decision and the pictures will not
be shown In any of my theaters. It
was npt necessary for Chief Cox or
Mayor Simon to send a cordon of police
to the Bungalow Theater. The pictures
would not have been shown after my
conference with the Mayor."
John F. Logan, the attorney, an
nounced last night that the "defy" he
Issued Sunday goes as he said It. and
that he will carry out his remarks to
the letter. "If Mayor Simon wants to
reform the city. I will show him how to
do It." reiterated Logan.
Throughout the day yesterday a close
watch was kept by police officers on the
Bungalow Theater, but no -attempt jras
made to exhibit the pictures, despite the
announcement made at the box office
Sunday that they would be shown. A
small number of Intending patrons ap
peared, but were refused admission.
"Mr. Logan can't make the town too
clean to suit me," said Chief of Police
Cox, In answer to a statement of the at
torney for the showmen that he was
going to see that the "moral wave" was
made thorough. "I am always ready to
receive suggestions and information
leading to better conditions and shall be
glad to have Mr. Logan's co-operation."
MINISTERS DISCUSS PICTURES
Stand Taken by Chief Cox Is Doth
Praised and Questioned.
The moving pictures of the Johnson
Jeffries prlxe fight were "roasted" by
the ministers at their meeting in the
Y. M. C. A. building yesterday morning,
the matter being placed in the hands
"Dr. Miles Nervine
Completely Cured
Our Little Boy of
Fits."
A family can suffer no greater,
affliction than to have a child sub
ject to fits or epilepsy. Many a
father or mother would give their
all to restore such a child to health.
"I am heartily glad to tell you of
our little boy who was completely
cured of 6ts. He commenced hav-
lng them at 10 years of age and had
them for four years. 1 tried three
doctors and one specialist but all of
them said he could not be cured,
but Dr. Miles" Restorative Nervine
and Dr. Miles' Nerve and Liver Pills ,
made a comptete cure. He is now
hale, hearty and gay. It has been
three years since he had the last spell.
I shall eive Dr. Miles' medicines

of the law and order committee, of
which Rev. Benjamin Young is chair
man. The ministers commended tne
stand taken by Chief of Police Cox in
prohibiting the pictures, but some of
them declared they thought It an ad
vertising scheme, believing- that al
though the pictures are temporarily un
der the ban they will be shown. When
asked about the matter last night Rev.
W. F. Reagor. president of the Minis
terial Association, said that that game
has been played In other cities, and will
probably be played here."
Dr. Young told the ministers the
theater proprietors should have Invited
the preachers to their "sample" exhi
bition. Instead of Inviting the news
paper men. "The preachers," he said,
"would be competent to Judge."
AUTO SPEEDERS ARRESTED
James keep Trle9 to 'Take "Drunk"
Home 40 Miles the Hour.
Arrested for speeding an automobile,
James Keep had the novel experience of
being hauled to police station on an Im
provised patrol wagon, being the motor
cycle of Patrolman 91ms, who made tha
arrest.
Keep, in company with another chauf
feur, was taking home an intoxicated
man and the Job required dispatch, so
they were "hitting it up" 40 miles an
hour across the Burnslde br!t!gt. Leaving
ona chauffeur with the car, Sims arrested
Keep and mounted him behind the saddle
of the motor-cycle for a swift trip to the
Jail, where he was released on bail.
Maximum penalty will be urged by
Policeman Sims upon E. Gould, a driver
for tha Montavllla garage, whom he ac
cused of speeding past the school on Bel
mont street at 3o miles an hour, in the
face of recent warnings from the Chief of
Police and vehement protest against the
custom on the part of the Mothers' Club.
H. E. Humphrey was arrested for speed
ing at Third and Taylor streets, within
the fire limits, and is accused of going
at the rate of 25 miles an hour. Ho at
tempted to refresh Sims' memory con
cerning an occasion when the officer, he
alleged, had accepted a drink and a cigar
to overlook an infraction of the speed
laws. Sims refused to remember the oc
currence and placed Humphrey under ar
rest. .
E. T. Beverldge was arrested for going
at the rate of 15 miles an hour on Wash
ington street. R. Larson, driving a motor
truck, is accused of making a speed of
20 miles an hour on the same Rtreet. S. C.
Brown will answer to a charge of travel
ing 25 miles an hour on Alder street and
the Morrison bridge.
ROUGH HOUSE ATTEMPTED
Man llesents Hotel's Protest Against
Kntcrtaining Woman in Room.
L. D. Smith, of Eugene, collected a
"gang" and attempted to start a "rough
house" in the Oregon Hotel at 6:30
yesterday evening, because a woman,
who he said was his sister, had been
dented the privilege of visiting him in
his room. "Big Bill," the day porter,
was sent to the room to tell Smith that
lie must entertain the young woman In
the parlor.
Smith and his sister then left the
hotel and later Smith returned with a
friend, accused the porter of insulting
his sister and unexpectedly hit him in
the face. The fight was stopped and
Smith and his friend left. In a few

APROOF
From One
Who Has Been
Using: Our
Chinese Herb
and Root
Medicines
Portland. Oregon, Dec 23, 1910.
To Whom It May Concern:
Thl3 is to certify that I have taken
S. H. Wal Jing's treatment for the
past five weeks for a terrible cough
and hoarseness, and was completely
run down and not able to do any
thing. I have been sick for more
than a year, and tried many doc
tors, but none could do me any good,
and some said I had the consump
tion, but I kept getting worse all
the time until 1 caine to S. H. Wal
Jlng, the Chinese doctor and
pharmaceutist of S. H. Wal Jing
Chinese Herb and Root Medicine Co..
lately from New York Oriental
Hospital, and tried his wonderful
Chinese herb and root medicines.
And I am thankful to say that after
five weeks' treatment my cough Is
gone, my voice is clear, and now I
can talk like before I was sick and
feeling perfectly well. I will glad
ly recommend S. H. Wal Jing. the
Chinese doctor, to any man, woman
and children with any internal, ex
ternal or eruptive disease, for I am
so thankful for my own health he
has restored to me. Very truly
