Judge Hanford Holds Wash
ington Commission Can
nbt Enforce Eates.
A decision rendered by Judge C. H.
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

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.

" I
Son Frank Says Father Is
Not Dead, Although
Very Old.
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-

LEADING
CLOTHIER
abouts of the elder Rockefeller, I would
go to his old home in New York- state
and search for two old ladles, who are
now both grandmothers, who are in all
probability half-sisters of the Rocke
feller boys. 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

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. IF YOU
WILL TAKE THE TIME TO VISIT
THE OFFICES OF THE COMPANY
THE FACTS WILL BE PRESENT
ED TO YOU AND YOU CAN MAKE
UP YOUR OWN MIND THEN,
JUST CALL, THAT'S ALL.1
