The executive committee of the Pacific ast Traffic Association met yesterday | d appointed ymmittee, consisting of Frank Brown of the American Steel and Wire Company, C. R. Haven of Murphy Grant & Co. and E. R. Lilienthal of the Crown Distilling Company, to walt upon the Se: ors of the State of Washington, both of whom are in the city, to confer with them concerning the best way to se- | | cure the appointment of a member of the | Interstate Commerce Commission to rep- resent the Pacific Coast. to report the name of an | port, and more time was granted. The executive committee meets daily, and will probably meet every day up to the time for the representatives of the ! coast to depart for Washington. Much that is done Is necessari confidential. The committee members say that thers | will be a strong fight and that the coast is in good shape to make the fight for its | interests. The following is a copy of the | body of the circular sent out to the whole- | salers, manufacturers and jobbers of the ast to get the necessary funds: he suit brought by the Business Men's | League of St. Louls before the Interstate | Commerce Commission against the trans. continental raiiroads and _ contributing lines, demanding that the differentials be- | tween carloads and less than carloads be | | practically done away with; that rates be | graded from the Atlantic seaboard west and that our present Western | | terminal system be changed so as to give | all intermediate towns and citles a less | | rate than San Francisco and other ter- | minals now have, is a move on the part | Louis, Chicago and other Middle iness of the Pacific Coast. The suit is really brought against you. The whole- salers, jobbers and manufacturers of the | coast must become parties to the suit and dfl(end their rights. “To do this the Pacific Coast Traffic As- soctation has been organized, the member- ship of which will consist of all lines in- terested in maintaining and defending the gos[llnn occupied by the wholesalers, job- ers and manufacturers of this coast. !

BLUNDERING POLICE METHODS e AN INNOCENT MAN THROWN IN THE TANKS. s Harry McVeay, the cook who was un- Justly suspected by Detective Crockett and Sergeant Ellis of being the man who stole a sack containing $4000 from the buggy of Captain Barneson, and who since last Sunday has been locked up in the “tanks” in the City Prison, was given his freedom yesterday, as it was conclu- sively shown that he had hothing to do with the robbery. The friends of the much abused man are now seriously thinking of preferring charges of Incompetency against the blundering sleuths who dragged McVeay him in prison without first having ob- tained the least evidence against him. Yesterday Attorneys Harris and Hess, who had been employed by friends of the unfortunate man to defend him, visited police headquarters, intending to consult with him about his arrest. Becoming alarmed, Crockett and Ellis flmmt_dl’uel) informed Chief Lees of the presence of the attorneys and suggested that McVeay be given his freedom. They both ad- mitted that they had made a serious blunder in arresting him. Learning that the attorneys had applied | to Superior Judge Lawler for a writ of | lease of their client, Lees, in order to cir- cumvent them, sent word to the prison g] from cus- was then ushered out of | the prison and told that he was at liberty | to go where he pleased.
