PORTLAND. Ore., Oct. 14. -Thick laying on tho Oregon Trunk lino from the Columbia river south began this week under plans which General Mnimger Kyle expects will result in completing, the work as far as the rVnnlrod river within the next 70 1nvf Sis miles of track arc now down and with tho present force employed about one and one hnlf miles of the rails is being lnid daily. There is sufficient material on the ground at present to complete track laying to Crooked river, in Crook county, a distance of 131 miles from Malmood, Ore., the station on the Columbia river. At Crooked river work will be de lavcd on account of the deep cauvon and i twill be necessary to build a bridge at that point before lnvine track can be begun gettween there and Bend, n distance of 25 miles. The grade for tho entire distnnce between the Columbia river and Bend is prac tically completed, covering a distance of IfiC miles. PlllfS HOLD THEMSELVES IN Althouflh They Have Lost Three Games In Succession to All Stars. It Is Saldino Be Due to Orders Not to Extend Themselves. The All-Stars made it four straight by beating the Athletics at the Amer ican league grounds here today. Mack's men played a better game than on the three previous occasions, when they have met the All-Stars, but at that they were almost shut out, scoring their one lonesome tally In the final Inning. Morgan and Dygort pitched good ball for the losers, while Johnson iar the All-Stars was invin cible. , WASHINGTON, Oct. 14. The fourth game of the series between the Philadelphia Athletics and the All Stars will be played here today with Walter Johnson of Washington twirl ing for the Stars, and Chief Bender and Jack Coombs for Philadelphia. Derrick will relieve Bnker, who in jured his fiuger yesterday. Although it has not been official. v nnnouncqd. it is thought likely Hint Bender will bo selected by Mnnngor Mack to twirl the first game of the world.', series. The fact that three games in suc cession have been won by the All Stars is not considered remarkable by the followers of the Athletics, for the champions have instructions to play under wrnps and conseouently have not been Miowing the fighting spirit necessary to win games. The work of the Athletic catchers, too, has been below that of the All Star bnckstops' RAILROAD FIGHTS. (Continued from Pag. 1 ) force It, They represented that state rates had Influence on interstate rates, and that, consequently, tho en forcement of the commission's re duced rates would be In conflict with the orders of the Interstate commerce commission. They said a reduction applying to commodities would be a boomerang on tho shippers, making It necessary to assess higher rates on other shipments in order to even up on the commission's mandatory re ductions, To all of which Clyde D. Altchjson, .railroad commissioner, an swered this morning, saying: "Tho questioning of the validity of the act under which the state railroad commission operates was the same raised and settled In the O. R. & N. rate fight, That the Southern Pacific should not be making any money seems strange when the entire line has been reconstructed recently out of operating expenses. Alleged State Contract. "Tho Southern Paclflo attorneys said that by act of Octobor 14, 18C2, the state had entered Info a contract with the Oregon and California rail, road, tho Southern Pacific's prede cessor, by which control of rates was to he vested In the railroad. This, if true would bo unconstitutional. It Would ho equivalent to tho state's Contracting avny and handing oyer jjw own sovereignty. MAINE MUST BE 15 BEVERLY, Mass., Oct. 14.

The placing of assist ant postmasters on this .list is with in the power of the postmaster gen eral and he has evidently gone as fur as he can in carrying out the dictate of his chief. where they were unreasonably high. The railroad had not recognized the relationship between tariffs assessed on various classes of freight. The recognition must be given. "Tho reductions are Intended for the benefit, ultimately, of the con sumer. They apply to articles that people eat, drink and wear, it Is es sential that reductions bo mado for tho benefit of the people, because the rates south of Salem, the region it was particularly intended to bene fit by this order, are higher than they were 20 .years ago. "I notice Judge Fenton says the Southern Pacific does not wish to In crease freight charges for shippers because they want to build up the state. This being true, why did tho Southern Pacific recently raise its rate on lumber from $3.25 to $5? Why was it that only a Bhort time ago tho rates on prunes, hops, Bal mon and fruits were put up?" In securing the tomporary restrain ing order the Southern Pacific and Oregon & California railroad compa nies were compelled to file bond In tho sum pf $50,000. It was ordered by the court that tho railroad fllo monthly a list of those persons who would bo entitled to a refund on freight charges In caso tho Interlocu tory Injunction Is not granted nnd tho railroad commission's tariffs are upheld. "Tho representation of Attorney W. D. Fenton for tho railroad that present rates are reasonable and are only tho subject of complaints by Jobbers, Is Incorrect. Complalntc that tho rates are unreasonable have come from Bhlppers and not from Jobbers. The reductions ordered by the com mission apply mainly to commodities ot the fourth and fifth class.
