CANAL RATES TO BE MET
Witness Before Senate Committee
Says Cities in Interior Will
Benefit Also.
WASHINGTON. D. C, May 31.
Transcontinental railroad freight
rates are being altered to meet ocean
competition via the Panama canal.
Edward Chambers, vice-president of
the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, de
clared today before the senate com
mittee investigating the railroad sit
uation. We shall fix the rates from San
Francisco to New York to meet the
water carriers," Mr. Chambers said,
"and then mdoify the interior rates
structure so that Kansas City, Chi
cago and Cincinnati, for instance, will
get the same rate as that to New
York and producers in all points will
be- placed on a competitive basis."
What that means," said Chairman
Cummins, "will be that you will then
be be carrying freight from Chicago
or Kansas City to New York, or vice
versa, for nothing."
Fafalr Riln Alleged.
Senator Pomerene, democrat, Ohio,
read into the records a series of
rates, showing that Interior cities pay
greater freight rates on a number of
commodities than coast cities pay for
longer hauls on the same products.
Mr. Chambers discussed Panama
canal competition, declaring that the
water rates should be regulated by
the interstate commerce commission
and that the rates should be high
enough to allow the Panama canal to
pay interest on the costs of construc
tion. Existing freight rates are not re
sponsible for the stagnation in the
building industry and have not op
erated to curtail road construction.
Mr. Chambers said.
RenpoaaibilMy la Denied.
"In cities on the Pacific coast and
throughout the west, south and east,'
Mr. Chambers said, "conditions sur
rounding the. building industry ap
pear to be about the same. The gen
eral report is that a comparatively
small amount of building is being
done. At San Francisco, Seattle
and Portland, where lumber is at
the door, conditions are the same as
at Kansas City, Omaha, Chicago or
Cleveland.

(Continue 4 From First Pa (re
contention of the railroads. Testi
mony was offered in the hearing,
which began April 18 and er.dcd May
IS, to show reductions of -0 to 60 per
cent in the cost of living. Varying
reductions in wages, mostly for com
mon labor, were also cited by the car
riers. "The board ojlieves." the de
cision says, "that based on the ele
ments shown the decreases fixed are
justified and require!.
"Whatever may be said as to the
origin or contributing causes, there
has been and is a marked depression
in every industry, the board says,
"As a result heavy financial losses
have been suffered, and many nun
dreds of thousands thrown out of em
ployment and this loas of purchasing
power by them has accelerated the
general depression by reducing the
dtmand for the products they would
otherwise have purchased. While it
has been argued that the fall In prices
has not reached to any large extent
the consumer, it has without question
most disastrously reached and af
fected the producers."

Railway Chief Disappointed.
Railway executives tonight ex
pressed disappointment at what they
termed inadequate wage decreases
announced by the railroad labor
board.
B. M. Jewell, president of the rail
road department of the American
Federation of Labor, refused to com
ment, but declared that the decision
would be taken up at a meeting of
the executive committee, probably in
Chicago soon.
"The reduction is not, in my opin
ion, sufficient to meet the demands of
the situation," said H. E. Byram,
president of the Chicago, Milwaukee
& St. Paul railroad. "The railroads
in good faith asked for and expected
that the board would make a reduc
tion of wages equivalent to the ad
vance it granted July 20, 1920. That
advance proved to run at the rate of
almost $800,000,000 a year when the
railroads were handling a normal
business and averaged about 22 per
cent.
Rate Reduction Problem.
"The reduction is just about one-
half of this sum. It Is estimated that
it will amount to $400,000.0u0 a year
or an average of about 12 Jer cent.
The reduction granted will be help
ful, but it will not be sufficient.
Whether it and "other developments
will make practicable any reduction
of rates will depend on the effect
upon the net earnings of the rail
ways. It does not seem probable that
the net earnings of the railroads will
be increased enough to make prac
ticable any substantial reduction in
rates in the .near future."
S. M. Felton. president of the Chi
cago Great Western railroad, de
clared that the decision "was very
disappointing."
"The relief granted to the roads,"
he said, "is relatively so small as to
preclude consideration of any sub
stantial reduction of freight and pas
senger rates, although where dis
criminations exist or where it is
shown that the rates are seriously
hindering movement of traffic
changes will be made."
DECISION" VICTORY; FOR MEN
Four More Soldiers May 'Die
From Wounds.
PROJECTILE IS ON PLANE
Explosive Rolls Off Aircraft and

BALTIMORE, ML, May 31. Two
soldiers were killed and 13, including
three officers, were injured, four per
haps fatally by the explosion of
bomb at the army proving grounds
t Aberdeen, Md., today, according to
a brief official statement tssuea oy

this afternoon.
The following list of casualties was
included in the statement:

Privates S. P. Maac, fth ordnance
company, and L. J. Titlow and R. F.
Bohle. 34th ordnance company, and
R. Id. Herr, a civilian.
Reponxlillty Not Fixed.
Neither Major Borden nor Captain
Roberts attempted in oral reports to
night to fix responsibility. They said
they had been unable to ascertain the
full facts, but would make a thorough
nvestigation. They were ordered to
Aberdeen by airplane upon receipt of
first reports of the explosion.
According to other report, how
ever, a bo-pound bomb rolioa trom me
airplane and was struck by the rudder
as the plane swung around.
Unofficial advices said that Captain
Hall had both eyes blown out and
that Mr. Herr had his left leg blown
off.
. Bomb Falls From Plane.
The official report stated that three
bombs weighing 100 pounds each and
one weighing 50 pounds, had been
oaded upon an airplane for tests. As
he plane was about to start its flight
it was decided to turn it around ana
11 the Injured an dead were about
he big plane helping in the opera
tion.
As the plane turned the 50-pound
bomb rolled off and an instant later
was struck by the rudder of the
machine as it swung around. This
caused the explosion in the very
midst of the men about the machine.
Cut of at Least 25 Per Cent Sought
by Railroads.
WASHINGTON, D. C, May 31.
None of the heads of the railroad enr
ployes' unions who could be reached
tonight would comment on the rail
road labor board's order decreasing
railway wages an average of 12 per
cent.
W. S. Carter, president of the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Enginemen and
Firemen, who, with W. G. Lee, presi
dent of the trainmen, and L. E. Shep-
ard, president of -the conductors, is
here for a conference with represent
atives of southeastern roads, said he
would call a meeting of all the gen
eral chairmen of the conductors for
July 1 at Chicago, where the wage
reductions would be discussed.
In labor circles generally the action
of the board was regarded as a vic
tory for the men. as the railroads had
sought a reduction of at least 2a per
cent.
Railroad executives here declined to
comment tonight upon the announce
ment.
NEW CRASH PROBE ORDERED
rJ.
nspcctor-Gcncral of Army Acts
Over Deaths or Seven Men.
WASHINGTON, D. C May 31. Inv
estigation by the inspector-general
f the army of the airplane crash at
Morgantown, Md., Saturday, in which
four officers and an enlisted man in
le army and two civilians lost their
ves was ordered today by Secretary
Weeks. Instructions transmitted by
Major-General March, chief of staff,
irected that every angle of the
isaster be carefully reviewed. The
report will form the basis for any
further action, which may be decided
pon by the war department.
This investigation will be Inde
pendent of the action taken by the air
service's board of Inquiry, which re
ported today to Major-General Me-
oher, chief of the air service. This
report exonerated the pilot. Lieu
tenant Stanley Ames and said there
as no evidence of defective design
n the machine.
The inquiry by the inspector-gen-
ral presumably will be of wider
scope, however, and take cognizance
of the statement made by Captain De
Levergne, air attache of the French
Embassy, who rode in the wrecked
plane from Washington to Langley
Field, but who declined to return in
it, saying that he had noticed on the
way down lack of balance at times
and that the ship was at times out of
control of its pilot.

BURNING IS JEW THEORY
(rvintlnufd From First Page.)
we heard a man come up to the Ma
honey apartment, and we saw Ma
honey trundle out a packing case. We
had noticed him taking the packing
case into his home several days be
fore that.
' "Then between 12 and 1 o'clock that
night an auto drove up to the door,
and Mahoney carried a trunk away
in it.
"I'm positive that the police were
wrong when they said the express
man took away the trunk. It was the
packing case that he had. And the
trunk went away In an automobile.
I haven't the slightest idea whose car
it was hut it wasn't the Mahoney'a.
I saw that later, so I know.
"Sunday, the day after we heard
the awful groans Mrs. Nora Ma
honey. Mahoney's mother, came to the
apartment, and went away with a
suitcase that was bulging fuIL
Mnhonry Seen With Woman,
"Mahoney went out that same day,
and it was not until more than a
week later that we saw him again. I
think it was probably about April 25
tfiat he came home. He had a dark-
haired woman who stayed with him
I don't know who she was or any
thing about her, except that she cer
tiniv won nnt Mrs. Mahoney.
"Nothing really unusual happened
though until Sunday night. We heard
Mahoney fooling around in the apart
ment und there was a fire in his
Ktnve
"He had kept the fire going almost
constantly ever since he came oacK,
In fact. We noticed because we
thouzht it was peculiar, as the
weather certainly wasn't very cold.
Bad Odor la Recalled.
"About 7 o'clock that evening there
was an awful odor the worst I ever
sme-lled. It lasted for hours.
"About midnight Mahoney left in
his automobile. I don't know whether
he carried anything out with him, but
I do know that the odor stopped Just
about the time he went away.
"He didn't , come back until Tues
day, and his automobile was just cov
ered with mud. Mahoney got a hose
and washed the car off in front of
his house washed it both inside and
cutside.
"My husband's suspicions were
aroused by then and he went down
and talked to Mahoney for about an
hour. Mahoney told him he'd been
up to Vancouver, but when my hus
band asked him about the roads up
there he appeared uneasy and tried
to change the subject.
Quick Lime Is Purchased.
"He did say something about a de
tour just above Monroe, though."
It was known that the police had
been making investigations in the
vicinity of Monroe, but until the
Klettes statement became known
there was no intimation as to their
mission.
According to police information it
was at the Buchanan Hardware Ac
Paint company that Mahoney bought
quantity of quick lime and rope a
few days before the supposed murder.
Boy Fails to Find Trunk.
Harold Taylor, the 11-year-old boy
living at 556 Ward street, who told
of having seen a blood-stained trunk
on the shore of Lake Union about a
month ago, attempted to lead in
vestigators 4o the spot yesterday,
but could find no trace of the trunk.
The youngster was positive that he
had passed over the place where he
had seen the trunk, but there was no
evidence to bear out his statement.
'At, police point out, however, that
Mahoney had his wife's automobile
almost constant use during tne
first three weeks in May and might
have removed the trunk.
