After the motion for new trial hal been dented the defendant at tempted to reopen the case on the ground of newly-discovered evidence, but this effort failed.

Xotarles Oommisslone-d. (Salem Bureau of The Jturnal ) Salem. Or., julv 23 - A commission as notary has been Issued to B. K Jones, Independence. The lararest boulder In the world Is I Iyriathlan P.ock, In Victoria. Australia, the weight of which is estimated at SO.OnO tons. The General Demand of the Well-Informed of the World haa always be?n for a simple, pleasant and Wheat growers of Oregon's Inland wheat belt may have lower freight rates between their fields and their market If It Is made plain to the rail road commission that the rates charged by the O. R. & N. are excessive. Some time ago, when the recent rnte decis ion was handed down by the commis sion, it was Informally recommended to tho O. R. & N. that the rates on wheat coluld well be cut down to a lower figure than Is now charged As yet the company has not heededt, Uie recommendation, and It Is probable'that an official hearing Into the question will bo had In a short time. According to Clyde 13. Aitchlson, one of the commissioners, it i.s the Inten tion of tho commission to take up the InvestlKatlon of the wheat tariffs as soon as the work of the commission can be shaped so that the hearing can be held. when this is done an ex haustive examination into the situation will bo held, and it Is practlcely cer tain that the Harrlman lines 'wHi be directed to lower their rates between eastern Oregon points and Portland, farmer to Present Case. In connection with this information comes the story that the farmers of I matllln, Wasco, Sherman and Ollllam counties are preparing to present their case before the commission In an effort to secure a material reduction in ra'e.s. The wlu-at growers' association of these counties has taken the question In hand and has retained James A. Fee, a well known lawyer of Pendleton to look after their interests. It Is understood that a petition Is being circulated for signatures the purport of which Is to secure a hearing before tho commis sion. "There Is no need for the farmers of cartern Oregon to go to that trou ble." said Mr Aitchlson this morning. "It Is the Intention of the commission to make an InvestlKatlon as soon as possible Into the wheat rates charged hv the O. R. & N" . and if this Investi gation allows the rates t be too hlf.:h tho company will be asked to lower them to a reasonable basis" At a recent meeting of th commis sion the question of the violation of the state 10-hour law by the O. R. & N. was also discussed. Kaiiy in the year tho commission submitted evi dence of the law's violation to John Manning, then district attorney, asking him to take some action. Bolt Already Instituted. Manning pigeonholed the letters and took no action during his term of office, preferring to pass the burden of any such a procedure on to tils successor. In the meantime, however, a sutt has been brought against Oerieral Superin tendent Buckley of the O R. & X. in 1'mstllla county by District Attorney ;. W. Phelps on the same charge. This suit Is now und r consideration by Judge Bean of Umatilla county and after discussion the commission decided to await the decision of t'o I'miitilh . urt regarding the points nf Hw t s- d by the company's anono-vs be fore commencing any similar actions ii: this county.
