Hanford of the United States district court of Washington, In the suit to com ?el the O R. & N. company to niti i olnt wheat rate from eastern Waah-na-ton to Puset sound points, has the immediate effect 'of a victory for Port land whent buyers and the O. R. A N. n mail onmnanv. but It is believed an other effect will be that of antagonis ing eastern Washington wheat buyers vhn mnv hn at the onlnion that they can get better prices from Puget sound buyers. Tha failaral rnurt declares' that the Washington railway oommlaalon has no power under the state law to enforce joint ratea .n tha present Instance, and that the function of rate-making lies with the stata legislature. It Is uroba bla the case will be carried to the su- f reme court of the United States, with he hope of getting an early settlement of. tha constitutional question involved. The decision IS interesting i vio- .h niun in mnm WHVI liiuii un It-brings up tha question as to Judicial ,..Mnn. mnA nnwara of a atate railway commission, and the extent to which a state may sxerclsa Jurisdiction over a railroad that operate In and makes rates affecting otner siaies. juuie In Ms decision, saia: . . 'I am convinced that these threa tranarnntlnant&l railways cannot pe compelled to pool their Interests In tha whMt trafflo without Imposing on thera Duraens wnicn -win cnppie mom y -tr- nt intifmtt iwmnuru ana that enforcement of tha order made by . tha t iiurav Mrnmmiuion. nuuinni them to carry wheat originating on the Una of the complainant over tha line of tha Northern Pacific and Great North rn railway, to the seaport cities of punt sound at a Joint rata, will have a direct effect upon Interstate commerce by diverting tne transportation o mi destined to foreign countriee from Port land t tha nnrti or tireL ioudo. now- aver laudable the purpose may be from tha standpoint of Washington farmers, a-raln merchants and millers, such a handicap upon competition In foreign trade by state authorltlea trenches upon nf con Kress to rerulate for eign commerce and Justifies the carriers in invoking tha power of a federal court to relieve them from obligations to obey the order." - The Waahinston state law Is said to be weak in its terms respecting the rate making powers of the railway commis sion, and contains a clause delegating ihla nnwer to the state legislature. It Ma likely that tha governor of Washlng Iton. will call a special session of the legislature to deal witn tne situation, or that a constitutional convention will be called to amend the state constitu tion and place tha rate-making power in tha hands of the railway commission.

An-I Philadelphia, Feb. 11. Another chap ter was added to tha mysterious and almost unknown history of William A. Rockefeller, father of the richest man In the world, when Frank Rockefeller, hla third and younger son. denied that there was any truth In the story that his father died in May. 1906. and was burled In an unmarked crave at Free- port, Illinois. This denial might have more force If It were not that Frank Rockefeller was credited with saying, about a year ago, that no matter what reports might be made concerning his father, ha would deny them all. To a representative of the press who had visited his ranch at Belvidere, Kansas, he said at Cleveland: "Mr father la still living, in spite of the fact that he was born in 1110. Where he Is, only my brother William and myself know. Everybody knows I have no use for my brother, Jahn D., and I make no secret of it. it would da no gooa to asx mm where his and my father Is." Inferentlally, he said that jonn u. am not know where his father Kept John S. la Dark. it was gathered in Cleveland that John D.'s repudiation of his father and his declaration some 25 years go that the old man was dead, had angered Wil- iui an? rann, and that, while they knew where their father waa, they did not permit their brother to know. Another story regarding the strange career of the father of the Rockefellers was learned at Cleveland. It has not yet been printed, and oniv tha rrut publicity given to what purports to be the inner history of the famllv war rants its repetition at this time. A man personally intimate with Frank Rocke feller said to tha renreaent&tiva nf tha press last summer: "it I wantd to discover ths where- " V ' -.: ; v t ' , lit- .i ,-'Y'"' flJC;2s m ' iifi ..... ...... aa. .

I understand the old gen tleman is very rond of tnem ana nas visited them frequently. "I once asked Frank if he knew them. Ha only smiled and said he did not cars to talk about them: that he was not supposed to know nor care a great deal about his father's private affairs of that aort."- Was Zn Xetiremeat. It was reported last summer frnm Freeport that William Rockefeller was livinc at that town under tha namt nf William A. Livingstone; that he re ceived remittances of 11.000 per year from Cleveland from tha Standard OU company, etc. Now the New York World devotes more than a page to prove that the old man did live In Freeport under the alias stated, and died there. On the day following the first publi cation of the report, Frank Rockefeller said to a correspondent: "There is absolutely no truth that my father Is living or hae lived at Free port, or anywhere near Freeport, or that no is or has been known anywhere as Dr. Livingstone. He Is living quietly In retirement, and my reasons for not wanting him to be bothered by anyone are obvious. If you wiU realise bow the old gentleman would be bothered by cranks and beggars of all kinds, were he to be known as the father of John D." And yesterday he said: T have denied the last He I am going ia raiauve 10 me aeam or my xatner. When my father Is dead I will see to it mat nia funeral notice is published. That notice has not vet been sent out In due time and In due form, if I am still alive, that notice will be sent out Of course, my father Is a very old man. He has to die some time. The last time I aaw him tha Indications were that ha would buVy ma. If he Is dead, I do not know lt- "The whereabouts of my father con cerns no one but his immediate family, and it is to protect himself from being hounded bv cranks and others who would break Into the peace and quiet of his retired life that he prefers to live In such seclusion as best suits his con venience, admitting to his retirement only a few close friends. 1 HOITESEEKEES BUSH TO HEfiMISTOff TEAClh (Speelal Dtapatch to The Journal.)

If you absolutely knew that there were $1,000,000 in Chicago, merely waiting for you to come and prove your ownership of it; if the carfare to Chicago was $62.50 and you had only $50 in your pocket; if you had tried in every way to get the other $12.50 and had failed; if time was pressing and you had to hurry; what would you do? You would buy a railroad ticket as far as your $50 would take you and take your chances, when you arrived at that point, on raising the balance. At any rate, you would get that $1,000,000 ifyou had to walk the rest of the way. This illus tration is analogous to the DENNY DULIN proposition. The former own ers worked the DENNY DULIN prop erties as long as their money lasted. They located an immensely valuable body of ore at the bottom of their 105 foot shaft. Their last penny had been spent. They could go no farther. Sev eral Portland men investigated the DENNY DULIN properties; they found the facts as' set forth above to be absolutely, true. They brought their proposition to Portland and all they ask now is, that a few more Portland people purchase a few more shares of the treasury stock. With this accom plished they will have sufficient funds to hoist the ore to the top and start pay-, ing dividends on the DENNY DULIN , mine. That's all there is to it.
