of action In th. light of the Roosevelt
action of yesterday In calling; for a new

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

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

Cook, fifth Louisiana district All are

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.
