(UT THE RATE 0 ASPHALTOM Transeontinental Railroads | Agree to a Fair Reduction | on the California Product i, v ] The announcement was made yester- | {dzy @t the Southern Pacific, freight of- fice to the effect that a reduction of §$2 a ton has been made in the rate of Cali- fornia asphaltum and bituminous.rock | to the Missouri and Mississippl rivers| gnd Chicago and New York and com- fon points, to take effect on January! 38, the date set for the application of the new West and East bound freight | tariff. | The reduction of the present rate of | $12 is the result of a long-struggle of | thé California producers, which began | with their organizing what is knovan‘ es the California Asphalt Sales Agency, | 2 concern now composed of fourteen of the largest oil companies in the State and managed by John Baker of mnl Union Ofl Company. It is practically a restoration of the | rate in force in 1900, when the Southern Pacific and other western lines sud- denly sdvanced it 1o $i5. Later the railroad companies reduced the rate to §14 and then to $12. Efforts to secure | other purposes. | road officials, & further reduction proved of né avail until last October, when the California Asphalt Sales Agency decided to send its manager, John Baker, to Chicago to confer directly with the principals of the railroads. Before the last nam- ed Baker squarely placed the griev- anced of the California producers, whom he represented as suffering greatly from the disadvantages of com- | petition with the producers. Evidence was shown the heads of the rallroad companies to prove that Cali- | fornia was in reality the largest pro- { ducer of asphalt and that with a rea- sonable rate to the East its product could be placed in the markets on a fair footing with the material from the | South for use in paving and roofing, the lining of reservoirs, the coating of buildings, manufacturing of paints, for insulating, pipe dipping and a hundred The rate existing at the time, it was explained to the rall- had made cimpetition ruinous and seriously threatened the growing industry, Assurance was given Baker that the matter of a further reduction would re- ceive proper consideration, but the first definite answer given to,the appeal of the California producers was in the an- nouncement made yesterday. that the former $10 rate would be restored on | January 18, P A R ‘Waldeck-Rosseau Very Il PARIS, Jan. 9.—The condition of Former Premier Waldeck-Rosseau is again exciting serious apprehension, chiefly owing to unconfirmed reports that he is suffering from uncer of the liver, DELECATES SHY AT EXCURSIONS Cattlemen and Woolgrowers to Make Fight Against Hold- ing Meetings in Various Cities AR R PORTLAND, Or., Jan. 9.—Strong op- position will be raised to the practice of taking annual conventions of the Nationel Livestock and National Wool Growers' Association to different citles of the country and it will be proposed that a permanent headquarters be es- tablished at some central point where the annual gatheripgs will be held. | J. D. Wood of Salt Lake, one of the men most prominent in:the organiza- tion, believes that this should be the last time that the hospitality of any city should be accepted for a big gen- | eral meeting and that the organizations have attained such strength that 'a permanent headquarters ou‘ht to be established. The following nnnounce{ent has been made: The Importance of the convention which will begin January 12 is assum- ing greater importance as the time ap- proaches. The question of forest re- serves, arid lands, packing-house com- bines and transportation are matters which demand immediate and decisive 1 action by the stockgrowers of this country. The necessity of some imme- diate action on the land and forest re- Serve question is recognized by Presi- dent Roosevelt, who has authorized Hon. Gifford Pinchot, Chief Forester of the United States, and Hon, F. . Newell, Chief Engineer of the Depart- ment of Geological Survey, members of the recently appointed Land Commis- sion, to attend this meeting for the pur- pose of ascertaining the wishes of the stock growers of the country. These ‘two subjects will be made the feature of the discussion on Thursday, January 14, when Hon. Heber M. Wells of Utah, Dr. J. E. Stubbs of Nevada and Hon. ‘ Thomas Haley of Oregon will represent the stockmen in the debate, while Messrs, Pinchot and Newell will repre- sent the Government. This discussion in.itself will be of sufficient importance 'to justify every stockman in hearing it. These, with other debates on the subject mentioned, will make the con- vention one of the most interesting in the history of the organization. —_———————— Funston Lenient to Snboxlu. WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.-#General Funston' has notified the War Depart- ment that he has remitted the unexe- cuted portion of the sentence imposed by court-martial in the case of Major James B. Goe, Nineteenth Infantry. The officer was convicted at Vancouver Barracks of charges on intoxication and absence without leave and sen- tenced to be confined to the limits of his post for eight months and to for- felt $50 per month of his pay duging that period. The sentence was ap- proved In September last. it CHAFEE TAKED YOUNG'S PLACE War Department Retires Lieu- tenant General and Pro- motes His Assistant to Post STSHLS ST WASHINGTON, Jan. 9.—After hav- ing served at the head of the army as chief of staff, with the rank of lieu- tenant general for a little less than five months, Lieutenant General 8. B. M. Young relinquished his duties to-day to his successor in office, General Adna R. Chaffee, who has been acting as his chief assistant for several weeks past. | The change is due to the fact that General Young became 64 vears old | to-day and therefore under the law was relegated to the retired list. General George L. Gillespie, who has been since May, 1901, chief of en- gineers, succeeds General Chaffee as ‘assistant chief of staff, with the rank of major general. “This is the first time that an engineer officer has been in the line of supreme command of the army in eighty years, General Mc- Comb being the last officer in that branch of the service to occupy such a position. < By direction of the President, Secre- tary Root to-day issued an order an- nouncing the retirement of General Young and highly extolling the service of that officer. The order reviews General Young's services, beginning as 4 private of the Twelfth Fennsylvania Volunteer In- fantry e¢r. April 25, 1861, and closing as chief of staff, and concludes as fol- lows: “He goes into retirement with the | respect and esteem of all his asso- ciates. There can be no better wish for the army in the future than that! its officers shall remember how dis- tinction and the highest rank have | come to this officer, not as the result of self-seeking or political or soctal in- | fluence, but as the result of duty well done, a high standard of honor, sane and kindly judgment and unselfish loyalty to his commander in chief, to the army and to the country which he has served.” | ————— MAYOR OF HANOVER ' LIMPS INTO COUNCIL BERLIN, Jan. 9.—Mayor Tramm of Hanewer appeared in the Council House. yesterday for the first time in two months and sat with the magis- trates. He limped slightly, in con- sequence, as is widely published to- day, of a pistol bullet in the leg. re- ceived in a duel with Herr von Bran- | denstein, until recently Governor of | the province of Hanover. Several : versions of the affalr are printed. One, | 1 in the Tageblett, seemingly reliable, ‘ avers that Von Brandenstein believed | the Emperor had removed him komi the Governorship as a result of an in- trigue of Herr Tramm. A certain Countess, it is said, told the Emperor that the Governor was intemperate. The reason Herr Tramm gave for his long period at home was that he had suffered from bronchial catarrh.
