Sulem, Or., May 9. P. E. Blackman, a
former f rejgiit clerk for the Southern
Pacific at Roseburg, has appealed to
the railroad commission to aid him in
securing 180. which (he company kept
out of his monthly salary xf I7S be

W. S. Booth shipped to Roseburg
from Rawlins, Wyoming, a carload of
horses. He ordered t certain sized car.
the road being unable to provide a car
the size ordered a larger one was sub
stituted presumably tit the same charge
Blackman collected from Booth when
the shipment had arrived, at the rate
for tho former car. The auditor of the
Southern Pacific detected the alleged
mistake of the agent and kept the dif
ference, amounting to $30, out of Black
mac's next pay check.
In order to Insure against detection
It Is said the railroad companies have
employed the practice of holding agents
liable for misquotations. Should It be
detected that an agent had quoted a
lower or higher rate for any shipment
the company could be prosecuted under
the interstate commerce law.
Blackman not having the rates at
nana from Roseburg to Rawlins, as Is
required by law, quoted a wrong rate
and was the victim of the company's
negligence, he alleges in his complaint.
DAVIDOR CASE IS
DISMISSED IN COURT
The case against W. C. Spence,
charged with assault armed with a
dangerous weapon upon the person of
B. V. Davidor, was dismissed in Justice
court yesterday,- Davidor having with
drawn the charge. Davidor came up to
the Justice court Friday and when he
saw about 16 spectators with whom he
has had business dealings standing
around the courtroom he Is s.tid to
have hastily departed. Friends of
flpence say they think Davidor sup
posed the men he saw had been sub
poenaed by Spence as witnesses.
Spence and Davidor quarreled Inst
Tuesday and a fight ensued. Each
swore out a warrant against the other
and Judge- Cameron,- before whom the
cases were called, threw them both out

It was a time to try men's souls.
Captain Baty, his voice husky with emo
tion, called up the reserves and asked
for volunteers to capture the bear. One
after another the brave bluecoats
stepped forward and offered themselves
on the altar of duty. The captain se
lected the six largest and sent them
down to the wharf to meet the steamer
and rescue the ursu horrlbilus. At the
time of going to press the fearless band
was still waiting on the dock, while the
reserves held the fort at 'headquarters.
The boat was due at 2 o'clock this
