The Roosevelt men tried to put through a resolution confining- the con tests to Arlsona, Washington. Texas and California, two of which had already been disposed of. The Roosevelt men wanted th Issue to go before the con vention on these states alohe, but th Taft majority held that every contest should b. investigated, "if it took a week." Beverldg. Makes Eloquent Bpch. The early morning hours were en livened by an eloquent speech by Sena tor Beverldg on the Indiana contests. The former senator was In excellent voice, and devoted much time to denouncing- the alleged frauds In Marlon county (-Indianapolis), where he said that a gang of negroes were hurried from polling place to polling place in automobiles, to vote fraudulently In blocks. "I am not here as an attorney to argue the question," Beverldga declared. "I represent no faction but tho plain Re publicans of Indiana." Respite all of Beveridee's eloauence. the commltte ifpheld the ruling of the national committee In the cases of the delegates at large and the eight district delegates from Indiana, that the Taft men wera the regular delegates. The committee wasted little time on the con test In the Seventh Kentucky district. and promptly seated tho Taft delegates there. The? then took up th Eighth Kentucky. Most of the members were on the verge of exhaustion today, but the lead era insisted on them remaining; in the room, even though they went to sleep In their chairs. No chances were taken of having a majority turned into a minority. D. C. Edwards, a Taft man, and O. H. Waddle, a Roosevelt adherent, who were Beated by th nationalommlttee in the Eleventh Kentucky district contest were confirmed in their seats by the committee on credentials today by a vote of 26 to 15. The committee unanimously seated A. C. La and J. P. Breda, Fourth Louisi ana district, and W. T. Insley and F. H. Cook, fifth Louisiana district All are Taft delegates. Heney Makes Appearance, Francis J. Heney of California ap peared today, for the first time -since he was chosen a member, despite his original declaration that he would hav. no part in the committee's deliberations.

Amendment to th transcontinental freight bureau' tariff r!ved In Port land yesterday from Chicago by th rep resentatives of lh transcontinental lines show advances In class rate from eastern points to the I'aclfln roast rang ing from 20 cent to- TO cents per hun dred pound. It Is th opinion that th advance will not b felt very much her sine com pa rn lively few rnmmodltlea ar shipped under class rates. It will not affect jobbers. Railroad men explain the advance aa a step to disregard entirely sea compe tition as to freight subject to clsss rates and to put class rates on a reason able basis and In fair relation to the class rates established by the Interstate commerce commission In th Bait Lake. Spokane and Reno rate cases. The new rntes wero published by the railroads early In the year, but were suspended by th InUrstat railroad commission before becoming effective. At the expiration of the suspension period they aie now reestablished, and as the commission has exhausted Its power to further suspend them they will remain In force dating from June IS. Other Class. Affeoted. The old rate for commodities of first class waa 13 a 100 pounds from all ter ritory from Colorado eastward to thej seaboard. The rate was under a blan ket schedule. Under the new adjust ment the first class rate from Colorado to Paclflo coast terminals la reduced from $3 to $2.60 for 100 pounds. From Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma and ter ritory east of Colorado to and Includ ing Missouri river points the old rate of $3 Is maintained. From points In the Mississippi river territory the rate Is increased from $3 to $3.30 a 100 pounds, and from Chicago points the Increase Is from $3 to $3.40. From points east of Chicago excepting the New England states and the New York Dler tho rate is raised to $3. BO. From New England the rate has been in creased from $3 to $3.60, and from the New York pier from $3 to $3.70. Slmi ar changes have been made In all sec ond, third and other clashes of com modities. John IL Lathrop, manager of the Chamber of Commerce transportation committee, in commenting on the ad vanced rates, said: "The advanced class rates were pub lished to become effective in November, 1911, but were suspended upon applica tlon of many interested shippers until February 28, 1912, and were again sua pended until August 28, 1912. Tho commission has not, so far as I know, held any hearing- at which views of the shippers as to the reasonableness of the rate might be presented and be ing unable under the law to further sus pend the rates, could, do nothing- else than vacate its order. The law pro vides that rates may be suspended for a period of 120 days and further sus pension of six months is permitted. This time has now expired. It has been reported that the com mission would later make some invest! gation to determine the reasonableness of the rates but no official information regarding- this has been received. Slay Boon B Bednced. "In fixing th new rate the carriers have taken the old $3 rate from Mis souri river as a basis. From Mississippi river and Chicago the same differentials used to other western territories have been added. From th territories east of Chicago, instead of using correspond ing differentials, they have been reduced presumably because of water competi tion. That Is, instead of adding $1 to the Missouri river rate for New York territory, only 60 cents ha been added. "The effects of the , ad vanced"" cISss rates cannot be aa yet fully measured since many articles move to the coast under the less than carload commodity rates. It Is reported, however, that many of these are assumed to be elim inated. "The new rates apply as maxima to Intermediate territories and will hav the effect ct advancing- th rate to points, in- the WUlamett valley, prob ably north of Roseburg, but south there of they will be somewhat reduced. The new -rates win hay. no material effect in the intermediate O.-W- R. A N. territory..

Th fathr ha agreed to help th police locate th daughter and Is send- ng a picture of the girl to Portland. Detective Vaughn left at midnight laat night for Salem and will search there for th two. The father of th murdered man was almost prostrated by th discovery of his son's body In th morgue. He went o detective headquarters, whiire he told Captain Haty that he and hi eon had been traveling extensively, both making what funds thy could as they went along, either at their trade, that f plumbing, or th son by hi muvlo, or any other work he could find. They ame here several weeks ago, where hey found their fund rather depleted. nd they decided to remain here until after the Elka' convention. He con firmed the belief that the son was en gaged to marry Miss Marie Williams, a oung woman of Parsons, Pa., as wss Indicated by a package of letters found In the dead man's suitcases, which were located yesterday. Another significant feature about the woman wanted Is the report that she said to an Informer with whom the po lice are in touch that "she was picking live ones now, and Just touched one for $126." That, the police believe Indi cates that the man and woman whom they now seek are working the "badgar" game.
