The manner of the publication or me rate, tt la now atated, waa what the Tower, the present ambassador Is to Interstate commerce commission objeet- f-raphlo orders have bn sent out by he Southern Pacific to resume the sal of tickets as heretofore. Prior to the ruling- mad by th Interstate commerce commission tickets were sold from Chi cago through Hacramento. Portland to Taopma and Seattle for 160. When the new ruling was mad th $60 only carried persons as fnr as Port land, and th eitra cost of riding from Portland to Seattle had to be added, making the ticket coat fbS.CO. Th Increase In the cost of the tickets had th effect of making a certain olass of travel take the rout over th North' rn Pacific. The change In th travel being felt mainly by the cities or Bao ramento and Portland, and more espe cially Inrtland, as most of the trains to Portland went through Huntington, leaving Sacramento to the south and west.

Diplomatic factions In -Washing ton discount the theory that Dr. Hill Is not as able a diplomat as the kaiser would like to hare as the United States representative at his court. The moet remarkable bit of gossip relating to the whole affair Is that It will be found, If the Tower letter Is ever published, that Mrs. Hill Is discussed therein. . ' - One of the officiate of the state de partment who know Dr. Hill very well, said today that the only rea sonable supposition -was that the German ccurtlers who had retailed small talk t the kaiser, got hold of the story of Mrs. Hill's "democratic methods" wWle In Washington. This official said that It was a well-known fact that' Mrs. Hill was regarded in society as "peculiar."

Cnvanaugh accuses Harris of being the "brains" of a gang of confidence men who have obtained nearly half a million dollars within the last 10 years by arranging prize fights and wrestling matches.

Five other men are said to have operated with Harris. The police know them and are trying to locato them.
