Interstate Commerce Hearing
Brings Out Fact of Cali
fornia Rebating.
IT INFLUENCED BUSINESS
Reduction Induced Firm's Chief
Ship by Southern Pacific
Hearing Closed.
to
San Francisco, Oct. B. An un.-
. . , ...
successiui eiion was mauo oy Attor
ney Dunno of tho Southern Pacific,
to have Chief Traffic Agent Luce
placed on the stand today at the
close of taking testimony by Inter
state Commissioner Lane. The com
missioner mado Dunne's reason for
doing so plain by saying: "If Mr.
Luce was placed on tho stand at this
time It might raise tho question of
Immunity. It would be Improper and
inexpedient at this time to give Luce
the benefit of immunity." Dunne
Bald Luco could make complete ex
planation of special or Inside rates
which had partly been made by J".
O. Stubbs and pleaded at length that
ltU.ce, bb sworn. -Commissioner Lane
declined to administer the oath to
Luce but said Luce could make a
statement and it would be embodied
In the record. Dunno would not
agree to this, nor would he call the
other assistant freight agents. "For,"
lie said, "knowledge of these mat
ters alone rests In Luce."
. Commissioner Lano said there
were 50 or GO counts and possibly
a 100 hundred involved In the inter
state investigation, and criminal
prosecution might ensue. Another
sensational Incident ol the hearing
occurred when John Bullen, one of
tho. chiefs of the Miller nnd Lux com
pany, asked for permission to take
tho stand so as to amend his testi
mony given yesterday. He then said
lie got a reduction on tho published
rate on local shipments since the
Hepburn act. "And I must say," Jio
added, "this Influenced mo to give
our Interstate business to the South
ern Pacific."
After heaving tho evidence of their
witnesses, several of whom admitted
to receiving rates on shipments with
in tho state, tho hearing closed.

FREIGHT IS CASH
WITH THE STEAMERS
The new order of things which
went into effect with all the steamer
lines which do the business between
Coos Bay and San Francisco and
Portland is causing some Inconven
ience to the Marshfield business men.
Everj thing In the way of freight
which comes to the merchants must
be paid for in cash before the freight
will be released. This necessitates
the draymen carrying around a big
sack of cash, and they pay tho
freight and then collect It from tho
merchants when they deliver. Tho
steamer officials say they havo
adopted this system to save the ex
pense of a collector, and besides they
will save a number of dollars yearly
which get away from them through
poor collections.
