RATES
ARE CUT BY
lARRl!
Freight on Shipments to the
Orient deduced From $i
to S3 a Ton to Keep Bus!
ne&s Out of the Hands of
Tramp Steamship Owners
r Effective today, the PortlAnd A Asl
atic Steamship company, as well as all
other Harrlman line" opsratln steam
ers between the Paclflo coast and Honf
. kon. China, hays cut the rata on flour
from ft to S a ton. The reduction la
made In order to rive the regular lines
a better advantage In continuing their
war on the tramp steamers plying out
ot Portland and San Francisco.
The fact that the newi rule regarding
the filing of tariffs between the United
btates and the orient, made oy wis in
terstate commerce commission,.: went
Into effect today probably has some
thing to do with the reduction of the
uour races.
.This rule renulres the railway com
panlos In this country to file their
i tariffs on through shipments from th
orient with , the Interstate commerce
commission and Is the direct result of
van investigation into tne irarno agree
monta between the Harrimaa and Hill
.lines on the Pacific coast .and the Japa
nese steamship companies, uiai re
sulted some months ago in the indict
ment of the, Faclflo Mall Steamship
company for glvma rebates on ship
ments from Japan. '
Lcal Harrlman officials have insisted
. ever since the order of the commission
Regarding the tariffs was made public,
that they would have to give up all
through freight and depend entirely
' upon local shipments to keep their
steamship lines going. ' They at- one
- time announced they would have to give
. up their lines altogether. f Later they
... said they would, ktrp them, in order to
; save the wheat and flour business for
the O. B. & N. f
They have contended all along, how
ever, that the only persona to benefit by
the ruling of the commission would be
the tramp Steamer owners, who would
fret all the freight that the regular
inera have had heretofore. In order
therefore to offset this advantage as
much as possible the regular liners have
cut the rates on flour and promise to
fill their big psssenger steamers with
flour, if It becomes jJiecessary, to keep
the trsfflo away f rortrthe tramps.
Soma time ago the Canadian Paclflo,
? the Great Northern and the Nippon
Yusen Kalsha steamship companies op
erating out of the northern ports began
the war against the tramps by cutting
the flour rate to 13. The Uarriman lines
have held out until now, however, but
the going Into effect of the tariff order
decided them to meet the cut of the
northern steamship companies and help
. along the fight against the unattached
Freight officials stated today that
flour is ih largest cargo carried from
here to the orient and that Hongkong la
. the principal oriental port affected by
the competition of the tramp steamers.
For that reason rates on cargoes to
. other ports have not been reduced.
" "We are losing ' money on the Port
Hand Oriental line anyway,' said a
; Harrlman official today, "but we , have
let for grain brought in by the O. R. &
N. We can't afford to see the tramps
get our flour business, as well as our
through freight, and so have decided on
the decrease In rates' . .

Whether Jack La Rose shall be de-
elared guilty or innocent of the murder
of Hyman Neuman is a question' that
will go to the jury early tomorrow
morning. Today the attorneys ue mak
ing their pleas, and the jury will be
Instructed by Judge R. G. Morrow when
court convenes in the morning.
For two hours this morning La Rose
listened impassively to a powerful link
ing together of the testimony that the
state has offered against him by John
F. Logan, special prosecutor. La Rose's
face wore a more serious look than It
has at any time during the trial as
Logan denounced him as a brutal mur
derer. He is not ths sort of man to
break' down under any sort of circum
stances, and he betrayed no more than
ths interest of a spectator as he sat
gazing at the jury.
When Logan had finished, at 11
o'clock, Lester W. Humphreys took up
the argument for tbs defense. He spoke
for one hour In his maiden effort before
jury, and at the conclusion or nis
speech received many congratulations
on the manner in which he bandied the
testimony and sought to explain away
the incriminating evidence. This after
noon Jay H. Upton began the closing
aririreaa for the defense, after which
Deputy District Attorney Fiugerald will
close for the state. The argument was
limited to three hours on eacn siae.
Lesan called attention to the manner
of La Rose when the defendant, was on
ths stand ana to tne naziness oi nis les
ttmnnv ii to his movements on the day
of the murder snd as to the way In
watches. .
"He knew less than the Tio-sftviesv
Chinaman that ever took the witness
stand," Logan declared. "He said he
bought one watch in a store on Clay
street In Bah Francisco two years ago,
but he oould jk tell whether the street
cars run on Clay street. And do not
you gentlemen remember that two years
ago San Franclsoo-wns smoking mass
of ruins, and there was no Clay etreet?"
The prosecutor canea attention io
the .fact that the only other gas pipe
crimes in recent knowledge on the coast
were those in San Francisco, and it
was from San. Francisco that La Rose
came. The only other place where such
weapons are In common use, he said,
is on a ship at sea, and La Rose was a
sailor.
The prosecutor demanded to know
why the defendant had failed to ex
plain about the third watch that ' he
admits was in his possession when he

clared that La Robe left the other two
watches there because he wanted to get
rid of them, and he thought the saloon
man would act as a "fence" for him.
Logan spent some time reviewing the
testimony connecting La Rose with the
assaults on Max Herman and John
Chong, the day before and the day after
the murder of Neuman. He said that
ths objections of the defense to the ad
mission of testimony regarding these
assaults were "outlandish and trivial.
Mr. Humphreys opened his argument
for the defense by saying that La Rose
is penniless and friendless. Attorneys
were provided for him by the court.
In such circumstances, he said, the
jury should be especially careful to
weigh the testimony on which the state
seeks to take a man's life.
ReDlvine- to Logan, tne speaker said
that La Rose testified that he bought
the watch on Clay street two. years or
more aeo. and he asked why the pros
ecution had not asked La Rose whether
the date was before or after the earth
quake. He said that question was not
asked because the state wanted to as
sume that it was after the earthquake.
Humphreys accused Logan of being
unfair in his argument and said that the
he should not throw watches around is
that way.-" - - -
- Humphreys closed by Impressing; ' on
the jury the seriousness of Its duty, and
asked the Jurors not to weigh too
strongly the testimony as to other as
saults. He asserted that thereis mucn
more than a reasonable doubt of the de
fendant's guilt, and that he should be
aoquitted on mis cnarge nu ""
mset the-ether chargva against him one
b,Thetestlmony was concluded late yes
terday afternoon, after the defense had
sttempted to give color to the theory
that Neuman met death by accident.
and had called several expert witnesses
state half tried to conceal statements
hat Neuman made before he died, the
most Important testimony of all for the
defense. The first witness brought
into court who saw Neuman after he
was struck was M. Ostrow, and Ostrow
said that two men who were posting
bills came in and told him that Neuman
was "awful bad hurt." He at once
went over to see Neuman, but these
two unknown men were there before .he
was. .
These men had not assisted Neuman,
they had not called the police, they had
done nothing to spread the news that
a crime had been committed, except. to
remark In an Incidental way to Ostrow
that the letter's friend was nurt.
The attorney asked the Jury to con
sider these facts in connection with
the statements mads by Neuman before
his death that two men were engaged
In the assault. Neuman knew more
about It than anyone else, he said, and
the actions of the two men and their
disappearance afterward justifies sus
picion that they were the two men who
took Neuman's life. -
Humphreys defended La Rose on the
charge that he tried to get rid of the
watches. He asserted that the testi
mony showed that Leonder, the saloon
man, took the watches from La Rose
ss soon as the latter pulled them from
his pocket, telling the defendant that
to weaken some of the testimony of the
state. M. Ostrow, wno naa oeen a wit
ness for the state, and who was one of
the first to reach the side of Neuman
after be was struck, said that when he
asked the victim of the assault what
was ttis matter Neuman replied, Head
ache." When pressed still closer to
tell who hit him. Neuman answered,
"Nobodv hit me." On cross-examina
tion Ostrow said that although he and
Neuman were intimate friends, the in
jured man did not know him. '
Dr. C C. McCornaok, who was called
to attend Neuman after he was taken
to the police station and later at the
hospital, and Monroe Goldstein, who
saw Neuman at the station, also testi
fied as to Neuman's condition and
statements. MoComack said that Neu
man was aazea, out naa not wm cut?-1
sclousness.- He could , not repeat the I
conversation he had with the Injured
man, hut remembered that intelligent
answers ware given to his questions.
Goldstein testified that Neuman said
two men assaulted him. This was while
the victim was sitting on a bench at
the police station, choking with blood.
Patrick Bruin, ex-captain of police,
testified that a gas pipe is not an un
usual weapon among thugs.' On cross
examination he was unable to name any
cases within his knowledge In which
this was the weapon used. Amusement
was caused by a reference by John F.
Logan to the "late unpleasantness" be
tween the witness and Mayor Lane.
Logan revived the fun when he com-
Belled the next witness, Thomas K.
ulme, to admit that he was "one of
the gentlemen removed from office by
Mayor Lane." Hulme was once city
f lumbing Inspector. He testified that
he pipe with which Neuman was struck
down had been used aa a water tlpe
and not as a gas pipe.
Frank A. Heltkemper and Von Gray,
watchmakers and jewelers, testified
that the larger watch of the two in
evidence, the one La Rose says he car
ried for about two years, shows sla-ns
of having been worn. They also eald
that the engraving or an engine on the
back of the case is an ordinary design.

If you had time and money enough to journey to the
great forest, of inland Australia, where grow the pine and
mighty eucalypti! trees, you could cure the most persistent
case of catarrh in a few weeks, y - v;
Or, if you were a victim of asthma or chronic bronchitis
or hay fever, in a, few weeks time 'you would be restored
to perfect health.' y-Jf'-, '"'
Get otrt your encyclopedia and read about the yonder
ful healing virtue! of the essential oil of eucalyptus.
Read about its balsomic air that absorbs and destroys
germs of all kinds wherever: the eucalyptus, king of all Aus
tralian trees, grows. y
Remember, there is no catarrh, no consumption, no dis
eases of the respiratory tract in inland , Australia, the home
of the eucalyptus tree, ' And remember that HVomei, the
great dry air inhaJabVxi cure for catarrh' and , all nose and
throat diseases, has double the healing power of the euca
lyptus air of Australia. . - V.; .:. :
And why ? Because it is Eucalyptus put up in concen
trated form, and is combined with other germ destroying,
and healing, soothing medicines.
If you hav catarrh, get a Hyomei outfit to-day, breathe
in the purifying, healing, and germ killing air of the Aus
tralian forests,' into, every nook and crevice of the respiratory
tract, and rid yourself of that dread disease that will surely in
time sap your entire system of its necessary vitality and leave
you, long before your time, a pitiful wreck.
A complete Hyomei outfit, which includes a neat, hard
rubber inhaler and a bottle of Hyomei, costs only $ 1 .00 at
any drugstore, and 2 extra bottles should be needed, which
is not likely, they can-be obtained for 50 cents, Hyomei is
the most economical remedy for catarrh.
