8 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 1896. VALLEY ROAD GIVEN CREDIT Official Words of Praise for the Competing Line. Pertinent Comment Made by Railroad Commissioner La Rue. ROASTS THE EUNTINGTON LINE Jurisdiction of Street Raiiroads Viewed From the Standpoint of the Commission Another installment of the interesting report to be submitted by the Railrosd Commission to the Governor was pre- pared yesterday by Chairman La Rue and only awaits the approval of the other members of the commission to be incor- porated into the official document. In this contribution the claims of the Southern Pacific Company that the 8 per cent reduction attempted to be made on grain rates by the commission was unjust and virtually a confiscation of the corpo- ration’s property are reviewed in the light of the heavy reductions brought about on the Southern Pacific lines by the competi- tion of the Valley road, and some perti- nent and striking comment is evolved. The question of the juridiction of the commission over street railways is also treated at considerable length and several new and important points are developed. On the subjectof rate reductions the re- port will say: The contention of the Southern Pacific Com- pany was and has at all times been that a re- duction o! rates of freight, us proposed by the resolution offered bv the chairman of this board, would be confiscatory of their prop- erty. The commission did not adopt the resolu- | tion making a reduction of 15 per cent and 20 per cent as proposed, but did, after a long and careful examination and consideration of the | quesiion, make an aversge reduction of 8 per | cent upou all grain rates as then in force from the interior to tidewater over the roads of the Southern Pacific Company. The company claimed that this small reduc- tion wouid be confiscatory of their property, that it was unreasonable ana unjust, and com- menced an action restraining this board from enforcing compliance with said order reduc- ing rates. Since the commencement of said action above referred to the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valiey Railway Company has been constructed, and is now in_successful oper- ation between Stockton and Fresno, & distance of 125 miles, carrying both freight and passen- affording additional transportation s 10 the farmers and business com- generally of that rich and fertile country throngh which the road is located. | 1t is paralieied on each side the whole dis- tance from Stockton to Fresno by railroads owned and operated by the Souttern Pacific Company. Assoon as the Valley road was so far completed as o enable it o transport to market the grain crop of the section ot coun- try through which it passed a schedule of grain rates was vrepared by said company and | submitted to this commission for its approval, which was upon campurison with the scheduie of grain rates adopted and pubiished by this commission found to correspond with said re- duced rates. being a reduction of about B ver cent from the rates charged by the Southern Pacific Compeny between Stockton, Fresno «nd inlermediaté points prior (0 the comple- tion of the San Francisco and San Joaguin Velley Railway. In addition to the above noted reduction_the San Francisco and San Joequin Valley Railway abo:ished the switch- ing charge of 10 cents per ton at Stockton, which prior to the operation of the Valley road was chargea by the Southern Pacific Company. The Valley road, also i connection with their railroad, made a rate from Stockton to Port Costa and San Fraucisco by water of 50 cents per ton, beinga reduction of 50 cents per ton from Stockton to San Francisco upon ihe rate charged by the Southern Pacific Com- pany between said poinis. Believing the schedule of rates submitted by the Valley road to be reasonable and just they were approved and adopted by this board. Notwithstanding the contention made by the Southern Pacitic Company in the case now pending before the United States Circuit Court, and at all times to this board, that the rates then established and charged were as low as they could be made and pay a reason- able profit, and that the reduction as pro- posed, if adopted, would entail upon the com- any losses so great that the company would {;e thrown into insolvency and their railroad and other property into the hands of a re- ceiver, immediately upon the opening of the Valley road the Southern Pacific Company re- duced the rates between Port Costa and Stock- ton and all stations on their respective roads that are in competition with the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Road. Said rates so made by the Southern Pacific Company were in many insiances lower than the rates estab- lished by this board, and that were by them declared aud charged to be unjust, unreason- able and confiscatory. The reductions above referred to, as made by the Southern Pacific Company, will aver. age more than 15 per cent lower than the rates of January 1, 1595, and are a greater re- duction than provided by the original resolu- tion asking for an average reduction of 15 per centon th2 grain rates of 1895, With a com- peting rosd running between Stockton and Fresno, with water connections to Port Costa and San Francisco. the business is divided; then there is a short crop and less than the ususl tonnage to move. Yet with this mate- rial reduction in rates, averaging (including the abolition of tehing charges at Stock- ton) more than 15 per cent from former rates, the Southern Pacitic Company is still being operated, presumably at a profit. We have not yet heard that it is unable to pay its curreni expenses, fixed charges, etc.; or that from this slight reduction ana compe- tition it is likely to become insolvent and to pass into the hands of & receiver. We believe the rates as now charged from these competitive points are reasonable, just and ample, and as much as the traffic can afford to pey. After quoting: the section of the consti- tution giving the Rairoad Commission power “‘to establish rates of charges for the transportation of passengers and freights by railroads or other transporta- on companies,” the report will refer to the act of the Legisiature defining the powers of the commission. In this the term ‘“‘transportation companies” is de- clared “to mean and include all com- panies owning and operating railroads (other than street railroads) within the State.” i Commenting on this the report will say: By this act it wonld appear that it was the intention of the Legislature to remove from the commission, so far as they had power, ail control of street railroads. While the Legislature may grant the com- mission additional power o aid it in the dis- charge of its duties and to carry out the intene tion of the constilution, can it curtail or re- strict its powers and jurisdiction and take from it that control which the constitution evidently intended it should have? The important question arises What are street railroads? Are they confined to the corporate limits of & city or town to carry pas- sengers from one point of the city or town to another and confined to the public streets thereof ? Or do they include all railroads operated upon the streets of a city or town and upon :he public highways through the coun- try {from one city or town to another and which carry mail, express matter, passengers and possibly freight ? Are not all these transportation companiea, and should they not be unaer the control of the commission? Or should they be subject to the control of the city and county authori- ties in whose territory they are locaied? These sre questions of much importance which ought to be judicially determined at an early day. Bince the introduction of electricity asa motor power railroads operated by electricity have multiplied very rapidly, not only in the citles, but throughout the whole country, They heve siready done away with most of the roads operated by horse power, and a fast superseding those that have been ope #ted with sleam as a motor power in both city and desirable for local, express and _passenger traffic. Inafew yearsour State will be trag- ersed in all directions and our county roa occupied by electric raiiroads carrying freight d passengers. Yhould they be coasidered transportation compunies and subjected to the control of the Railroad Commission? Reference is made to the unsuccessful attempt of the commission to make an examination of the books of the Market- street Railway Company for the purpose of determining whether or not a reduction of fares on the line of the company could be made without depriving the company of legitimate profit. In this matter the jurisdiction of the commission over street railroads was denied. Commissioner La Rue’s ccmment on this puase of the situation is as follows: The Legislature, in the passage of the act hereinbefore referred to, in defining the term “iransportation companies” obviously in- tended to remove from U control of the commission the right 1o regulate fares upon street railroads, seemingly in conflict with the true intent of the cons titution, It is then recited that the matter has been referred to the Attorney-General for his consideration and counsel. The Dimond Estate Trust. Mrs. Eleanor D. Jarboe, Paul R Jarboe Mrs. Mary G. Tobin and Joseph S. Tobin have filed a bill in equity against Horace G. Platt and B. P. Oliver as trusiees, and John Dimond Jarboe a minor, seeking to obtain a division of certain trust funds placed in the handsof said trastees by the late General W. H. Dimo It ap- pears 1o be a fricndly suit in which different members of the family have joined, Mrs. Jar- boe and Tobin being daughters of the iate General Dimond.

The board of trustees of the Chamber of Commerce met at 2 o’clock yesterday aft- ernoon and considered several important matters, among which was the establish- ment of a class in navigation at the Lick School of Mechanical Arts. Professor George A. Merrill, the princi- { pal of that institution, was before the board and gave valuable information re- garding the practical benefits of such an action as contemplated. After a consulta- tion the chamber aecided to appropriate sufficient money to furnish the necessary fittings and instruments for the new school. Professor Merrill stated that he would lay the matter before the Lick School board of trustees at their next ses- sion.

Our people have reason to complain that this im- poriant non-partisan meesure, notwithstand- the repeated promises of favorable action by both political parties, has been neglected, while measures inuring to the benefit of selfish interests have had precedence in Congress. We ask you to aid us in procuting. the early enactment of wise National and pa- triotic legislation which will secure for our couniry & walerway between the oceans, for the enhancement of the prosperity of our ‘producers, manufacturers and merchants all over the country, and also add to the prestige améll_nwrnluonll influence of the great Re- public. We are certain thatin this you will have the practically unanimous support of your coun- the Congress representin; them. It will be a glorious beneficence adde to your administration, aad will carry your name in honor to posterity as the American President who took the initiative in uniting the two great oceans, and securing an Ameri- can canal under American control for the prosperity and glory of the great Republic, which has twice honored him with the chief magistracy. The vilis now before both houses of Congress with favorable recommendations of the com- mittees that have had them under considera- tion, with your powerfulapproval in the forth- coming message to Congress, and your hon- orable influence supporting our position thereafter, will assure us this legislation so long promised and of such importance to our country.

This letter from the secretary of the New South Wales chamber speaks of certain complaints coming from con- signees of that place regarding the guality of lamber cargoes shipped from this coast. The writer refers to that of the Ralz, which vessel arrived at Sydney from Ta- coma August 20. The communication was ordered to be sent to the Pacific Lumber Company for consideration. The following letter was also received from the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce: The disbursements of public moneys at the navy-yard for labor is about $1,200,000 per annum, 75 per cent of which is spent in Val- lejo at the various stores for suppiles and 25 per cent goes to Oakland and San Francisco. The navy pay office at San Francisco dis. burses for “‘open purchases,” etc., about $2,- ,000 per annum. ad the Oregon fitted out at Mare Isiard her disbursements would have been about $30,000 per month. The four Senators and Congressmen at Wash- ington and Oregon will endeavor to prevent the necessary approvriations for Mare Island, and will us:” their utmost endeavors to pro- cure the iargest n{pl’oprlnfinns for the navy- grddlnd drydock at Port Orchard, Puget und. The removal of Commission Rock in Napa Creek ana the dredging of the channel in San Pablo Bay, off Pinole Point,for about two miles will' remove all obstructions in the way of the largest ships going to Mare Island. The partial closing of the navy-vard at Mare Island and the development of the plant at Pori Orchard would be an irreparable loss to California and once started can never be re- covered. A communication was received from the chief of the United States Weather Burean regarding the request for a station to be located on the summit of Tamalpais in which the writer denies the petition. He states that the experience gained from placing stations upon Pikes Peak and other high isolated eleyations has taught the bureau that there is no practical bene- fit to be gained from such siations. They are an expense and are too far remowvi from agricultural centers for use. The chamber discussed this terse an- swer and came to the conclusion that Chief Sterling Morton did not quite un- dersiand the situation. Tamalpais, al- stand at the Ingleside racetrack was raided last night by Policemen Doran and Riehl. Six stable-boys were arrested and taken 10 the Seventeenth-sireet station, where they gave the names of Charles Foster, William Ed- wards, Henry Clay, James Getz, James Johu. ston and Wil except Smith. ——————— ONLY GRAH?M ABSENT.

Several New Stations to Be Built on This Coast Very Soon. A LETTER OF APPRECIATION. How Those on the Wrecked Steamer Arago at Coos Bay Were Res- cued From Death. The approach of winter and the storn.s that are always expected at this period ot the year has caused Major Blakeney of the life-saving service to order the men under his charge at the several stations in tbis district to put the stations, boats and life-saviug appurtenances in perfect order. Not that these are ever out of order, but the major is always more anxious at this Season to have everything ready at a sec- ond’s notice for an emergency call. Every- thing is now in perfect working order. In discussing the service Major Blake- ney stated that there is more saved to the mariner by prevention than by actual work when there is occasion for action. To illustrate this he cited the lite-saving station at Point Reyes. Prior to the con- struction and equipment of that station not a winter passed but that some vessel went ashore in that locality, and the wrecks were disastrous to life and prop- erty. Since the station and crew have been tnere only one wreck has occurred, and that was a small lumber schooner that was driven ashore by a severe storm. The crew was saved by the station crew. The reason for 1t is that in ail weather the men patrol the beach anc cliffs day and night and upon the approach of a vessel warning signals, such asrockets and guns, are set off in time to warn the mariner of his danger. Many a vessel has thus been saved by the coast guard. Another illus- tration lies nearer home. Many a vessel went ashore on the San Francisco coast prior to the establishment of the stations here. All that have gone ashore since were driven in by adverse tides, against which they were powerless because of the lack of wind or poor steering apparatus. They were warned just the same. While those who have been benefited by this important service deeply appreci- ate the good it does, the general public is not always well informed as to the sterl- ing merit of the life-savers. There was one unfortunate crew who recently had cause to appreciate the service and also the fact that Major Blakeney had changed | a station so that the hife-savers could be of use to those in distress. On this point the following letter is self-explanatory: i e Engl-‘ususoo. NOT'I;“. | a, T eney, Superintendent Twe!fth Unazjg' States Life-saving Dustrict—DEAR SIR: 1 | take pleasure in wriling you s few lines re- garding the wreck of the steamship Arago near Coos Bay jeity on Oatober 20, 1806, and he | performance of the life-saving crew ou that oc- casion, particularly Captain Haynes, who was in command of the lifeboat on that occasion. I would state that when the liieboat & peared inside of the jetty she was making al- most steamboat time and against a sirong flood tide, which conviuced me that they were and had been {rom the time they knew of our plight doing all in their power for us. After getting to the north side of the wreck (s job that required great courage and skill on the partof Captain Haynes and great strength and endurance on the partof the crew, who, had they not been well drilled, would, I be- | lieve, have been 100 much exhausted by the long pull they had from the station to the end of the jetty, to have performed it), several at- tempts Were made to get us & line before it was accomplished—every attempt at the peril of the lives of the entire life-suving crew. After getting the line to us Captain Haynes insiructed us to haul in and bend the hawser 0nto one man at & time and have him jump overboard and they would haul him into the lifeboat, which they did until there were but three of us left. Then as ail indications were that the mast would soon fall, Captain Haynes told me not to wait to haul in the hawser but bend ‘the line we had around all three of us, & little space between us, and he would haul us all at once, which we did. Captain Haynes and his crew saved ail the men on the wreck when he got to it. I must thank you for the lives of all of us Wwho were rescued by the United State Life Service crew, for I believe that 1t was through your efforts that the life-saving station was changed from Cape Arago, from where no life- boat could have reached us that day or the next. Yours respectfully, REED, Master steamship Arago. The bureau at Washington is at present con.emplating the enlargement of the service on this coast. One improvement will be the erection of a life-saving sta- tion at Grays Harbor where the British bark Zinita went ashore two days ago. A site was purchased there five years ago and the plans are being prepared at Wash- ington. It will be fully equipped with all modern life-saving apparatus, Probably the first station to be con- structed and f\xt in order will be that on the outside of Point Bonita a little above the lighthouse. Its construction was au- thorized by the last Congress, but the site is not yet selected. It will consist of a modern buildiyg, boats, etc. Inside of the point in what is known as Pilot Cove, another or auxiliary station will be erected and provided with boats, chute and all that will be necessary. One large crew will be sufficient for both places. Tue idea isthat in a northwest storm, when a toat cannot be launched from the ocean side, the crew will cross the low hill and launch the boat in the Pilot Cove sta- tion and proceed out to the vessel in dis- tress. ben the storm is from the scuth or ooutheast the outside boat will be launched when necessary. When the new station is establishea it is believed that the coast guard patrol service will save a!l kinde of water craft, even from the ap- proach of danger. —_— Mayor Sutro Sued.
