He expressed great priae In the fact that the 1 per cent reduc tion in operating expenses was accom plished without cutting the salary of a single employe. When the express carriers discoverea that they were running behind In their earnings, that they were not making enough to pay actual expenses, to say nothing of paying a return on their In vestment, they applied to the Inter state Commission for permission to ad vance their class rates. This Increase was granted and will become effective September 1. It doea not apply to packagea weighing 100 pounds or more, nor to packages taking commodity rates, such as perishable food products and the like. The maximum Increase per package will be cents. Leasee Would Be Wiped Oat. The Increases, as proposed, the ex press officials explained, will effect an Increase of I.BS per cent In their an nual gross receipts and doubtless will wine out their operating losses. Commissioners Campbell and AltchI son. of Oregon, and Commissioners Reynolds and Spinning, of Washing ton. heard the evidence of the express men. They will take the application under advisement until September 23, when a further hearing will be had in Portland. Meanwhile a survey of the uslness will be made at both Port land and Seattle to determine how the proposed advances will affect the ship pers. It is presumed that the bulk of the Increase will fall on merchan ise shipments. NAVY AND ARMY AT BALL XaTSl Militia Enter tans Albany' Crew and National Guard. to make 107.JOO drinks.
