New York Railroad Commissioners
Sty Broken Ralls Increase.
Albany, N. Y April 27. Broken
rails removed from railroad tracks in
this state during January, February
and March of this year were much
more numeioas than in the correspond
ing three months of eithor cf the past
two years, according to a bulletin issued
today by the slate railroad commis
sioner. The bulletin says:
The unusal number of broken rails
reported during the past winter caused
the investigation at this time. The
board finds that during the three
months ending March 31, 1007, thero
was a total of 3,814 broken rails on
principal steam lines of the stato. Dur
ing the corresponding threo months cf
1000 there was a total of 820, and dar
ing the corresponding tthree months of
100S, a total of 1,331. The matter in
detail has been presented to the Amer
ican Hallway association, which li now
holding its convention in Chicago, and
it has requested that the matter be
taken up for discussion and action by
the railroad managers.
It is probable that the convention
will go into the causes of the greatly
Increased number of breakages and that
tho matter will be discussed as to causes
and a conference arranged with rail
manufacturers with a view to discover
ing If the alarming number of break
ages is due to method of manufacture
or metal composition.

Thero is no urgency. The matter stands

as taking precedence over other matters
priority filed, and it will not bo deter

Railway Commission Renders Opinion
Against Southern Pacific.
Salem After due and tnnturo dollh
enttlon tho Oregon Itallroad commis
sion has rendered its opinion finding
tho 5 rate per ton of 2,000 pound
upon rough green fit lumber from Port
land to San frianclavo hay tmluts, is
excessive, discriminatory and contrary
to the rules, orders and regulations of
tho Interstate Commerce law, and, un
less the southern Pticlflo eoui,ny re
stores tho old rale of $3.10 per ton
upon tho miiio commodity "within a
Hfisonnblo length of time," about two
weeks being considered "reasonable"
by the commission in this rase, tho
en so will bo placed beforu tho Inter
stato Commerce commission through
tho medium of tho attorney general of
tho state.
This opinion Is tho outcomo of tho
hearing of tho complaint of tho West
ern Oregon Lumber Manufacturer'
association Tueselay against tho South
ern Pacific's action In putting Inlo
effect tho $5 rate, April 18, to curtail
tho undeslrablo tnilllc in lumber from
Interior points southward.
Whether or not tho Southern Pucllic
sees fit to give heed to this finding nnd
suggestion remains to bo seen, but it
still leaves tho question of a Hat into
of $1 per thousand from valley )olnta
to l'ortiand undecided, and this move
ment, which Is being agltntwl by the
valley mill men, is foreign to that em
bracing the Interstate rote, and must
be brought before tho commission un
der separate complaint and petition,
