LOWER FREIGHT
RATES ASKED
Lang of Medford Grocery Co. Ap-
pears Before State Railroad Com
mission as Representative of Med
ford Commercial Club.
I. Lang, of tho Medford Grocery
Co., appeared before the state rail
road commission Thursday at Salem
as tho representative of the Medford
Commercial club's freight rate com
mittco and proved the best informed
witness of the hearing. He brought
out the club's contention that lower
carload rates were essential to build
ing up a jobbing center. Ho was
armed with a mass of statistics.
While the first-class rate may be
fair, he declared that the difference
between tho first and second-class
rates is not proportionate. He con
tended that cn equitable rate would
be based on the graduated tariff es
tablished by the Washington state
commission uid recently ordered in
effect on the O. R. & N.
Improved Equipment.
R. Koehler. general purchasing
agent of the Southern Pacific, stat
ed that sinco the year 1893 the
Southern Pacific company has made
remarkable improvements in its right
of way and equipment, in that at the
time there were no steel rails between
the towns of Tangent and Roseburg;
the bridges between Portland and
Ashland were wooden; 19 miles of
trestle work has been filled in tho
past eight years; embankments have
been widened from 14 to 16 feet, and
in place of tho comparatively light
equipment, new and heavier engines
and cars havo been installed.
Mr. Koehler was then asked why
were class rntes lower in 1893 than
they were at the present date, and
ho said special circumstances was
tho principal cause, among them be
ing the competition with tho O. R.
& N. N
In connection with tho competition
fight, tho witness stated that a
great amount of tenming was being
earned on, especially between Cor
vallis and Eugene. Mr. Koehler said
tho first competition occurred in
1881, and continued until tho Oregon

mond in 1S9C.
Lower Rate Demanded.
Mr. Koehler was asked whether or
not the rcmarknhle increase in the
population of Portland since 18S0
would not tend to increase the earn
ings of tho Southern Pacific in the
Willnmctte valley, and thus give the
public the benefit of a lower rnte.
He admitted that traffic had in
creased sinco that time greatly, but
he thought this could be partly ne
countcd for by the advanced effi
ciency of tho road.
One of the points brought out at
the investigation into class rates on
tho Southern Pacific by tho state
railroad commission was that not
withstanding the population of the
Willamette valley increased in the
past 20 years from three to five
fold, the rates nro higher now than
they were two decndc3 ago. This
was shown by a report of tho O. R.
& N". company mado to a committee
of the legislature in 1S89.

MAY DAY AROUSES
ANXIETY IN EUROPE
LONTDON", April 30. Owing to the
unusual unrest in labor circles Eu
rope is awaiting May day with mere
anxiety than has been the caso in
n number of years. The lockout of
the building trndes in Germany has
nroused intense feeling throughout
the empire. In Paris, the prefecture
of polico has taken extraordinary
precautions to suppress disorders to
morrow. A dispatch from the French
cnpital today says that no fewer than
20 regiments of infantry and drag
oons arc quartered in tho city in an
ticipation of trouble. Though the
number of unemployed in London is
lnrgcr than usual, no disturbances
arc expected here.

bered, id tho newly-found substance
that gives constant heat and light,
and continuously throws off tiny
particles of itself, yet without any
apparent diminution of woight or
strength. Its rays will penetrate a
foot of steal or go through two foot
of hard wood. Its cost is at tho rate
of over $.",000,000 per pound, mid '
hardly obtainable even at that fab
ulous price, so extremely scarce in
the present supply. Scientists esti
mate it is practically iuoxhaustible
and that it will continue its peculiar
manifestations for thousands, if not
millions of years, without wearing
out. Professor W. B. Patty, nh ex
pert exhibitor, may bo engaged for
an early anpcarauco here, bringing a
supply of radium nnd demonstrating
its wonderful properties; nUo bring
