tcnator Miller to Introduce Bill
Compelling Railroads to Supply
t'ara or rny I'-.ii' or for
a; Kaeh Pay's Delay.
SACRAMENTO. Cal.. Jan. 11 (Spe
cial.) An attempt will he made to break
the monopoly enjoyed by the Standard Oil
t'ompany In California by means of a bill
to be Introduced In the State Senate by
Benator K. O: Miller, of Ylealla.
Miller-"Tomes from the section where In
dependent producers liave virtually been
driven out of business as the result of an
RKreement between the Rockefeller trust
and tha Southern Tarlflc and Santa Fe
trowda. He Is a member of the minority,
heln free to ntrlke at the railroads and
oft monopoly with impunity.
The Senator's bill would compel the rail-
road companies to supply cars on demand.
It Its almost a duplicate of the Texas law
on the same nuhjp'-t . nd is intended to
end abruptly d incrimination on the part
of. railroads against producers h9 refuse
to da emtulfed hy the trust.
Independent oil men lia ve been refused
cars for .the- shipment of the'r product.
tlioug-h on on occasion It will be died
thai the Southern-PaMe had ISA Idle lank
cars on thn sidlnjsr and the SantA F"e 80.
Miller's bill wtll force the railroads to
supply cars or pay a tine of 35 a day for
every day tatueon a time a car is de
demanded and the time It Is irfven to the
orilppr. On the other hand. It atno would
impose a One of tlie name amount on the
fUipper for every flay ho neglects or re
fuse to use a car after havlnsr received It.
Another effect of the bill. It is arsued.
will bo to protect the shippers or green
fruits, whose products are often ruined
through refusal of tho railroads to supply
cars when drnmnd Is made. The Texas
law alonfc this line Is said to have worked
to perfection.

GIVE TITLE TO TIDELAXDS.
Washlnftton State Board Takes Up
.the Aberdeen Cifeea.
OLTMPTA, Wash.. Jan. 13.- ftpeclat.
The state board ot land commis
sioners Is making efforts again to flo9e
itp tide land matters at Aberdeen.
r)nc tbe- eaily Ob the state author!-
ties have been struggling to plat and
appraise tide lands In front . of that
elty so that the lara-e mills and other
Industries located there may secure
title by purchase from the state.
Early plats and appraisements were
wiped out by the courts or by legisla
tive enactment as void and the Iearis-
lature of 1908 ordered a new platting
afid appraisement. This platting has
been completed to cure defects In for
mer manner of surveys and an Informal
meeting of the board of land com
missioners was held here today to
discuss the matter of appraisements.
The 1903 law rather hampers this
work, as It requires that the appraise
ment under which the lands are to be
sold shall bo practically, that made back
in the- '90s. Tn other words the mill
companies, which for years have occu
pied these state lands without paying
one cent rental to the state, are to be
permitted to buy the lands now ' at
values established about 15 years ago.

according to the statement tonlg-ht of
Kenneth Mackintosh, Prosecuting Attor
ney of King County.
Two material elements will be served in
the appearance of Miss Whittlesey.
Through the long trial there have been
repeated reference? to her. and the de
fense has frequently sought. e?Tecially in
cross-examination on rebuttal, to show
thnt the defendant " admiration for- the
g'.rl was of such a chars rter that it would
mark an abnormal condition of mental
ity. The state today, through the adroitness
of Mr. Harvey, unexpectedly rot from a
close friend of Mies Whittlesey that the
latter was much' admired generally by
young men. and that the fact that Ches
ter was "crazy" In the accepted girlish
sense abaut Charlotte pertained in no
wise to the true condition of his mind.
With all that has gone before, it has
become almost Imperative upon the state
to produce Charlotte Whittlesey. The
Jurors want to not only see her, but are
anxious to hear what ehe has to say
about the attentions of the defendant.
