It is said passenger rates east of the Mississippi River are to be made uni- formly either Pi or 3 cents a mile. it Is claimed by many railroad men * will advance the charges in 50 per cent of the cases and reduce the tare in the other 60 per cent. The result of the conference was that the rate clerks of all the roads will be In- structed to prepare figures showing how much the railroads would lose by placing all interstate rates on a 2^-cent basis. Now th«re is no uniformity in interstate pas- fencer rates, although in most instances a 2-cent fare prevails between interstate points where*2-cent rate states adjoin. The passenger men' adjourned to meet next week. Chicago. June 1&-The financial interests In the East have taken an active hand in the- attempt being made to solve the prob- lem of freight rates and railroad revenues. Thus far the financiers have been directing their attention to trying to induce repre- sentatives of large manufacturing interests to accept increases in freight rate?. George W. Perkins, of J. P. Morgan & Co.. ended a three days' conference yester- day between railroad men and officials of the packing house companies, during which he tried to act as mediator. Failing to. get the packing house interests to agree to Increases of almost 25 per cent In the rates from Chicago to the seaboard, Mr. Perkins has returned to New York to try to get the railroad presidents to agree to impose an Increase- of only 6 cents a M pounds. According to the representatives or the various packing firms, the propo- sition put up to them by the railroad men comprehended the transfer of $3,7W,000 from the net profit side of the combined pack- ing house ledger to the net revenue side of the combined Eastern railroad ledger. As a matter of compromise the packing house Interests offered to consent to an in- crease which would cost them more than J1.003.000 annually, but to this the railroads would not agree. Now Mr. Perkins hopes m get the railroads to listen to a compro- mise measure and then to get the pack- ing house interests to agree to a little larger concession than was contemplated in their Chicago offer. The proceeding is unique in railroad history. A Compromise Offered Move to Standardize Passenger Rates on Eastern Lines.

OHIO HOLD-UP MEN GOT $1,000 Next Depression Will Be Prolonged, He Tells Railroad Men. St Paul. June 18.-In an address before the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen yesterday James J. Hill warned the men to go slow with their liv- ing expenses and save their money for a -rainy day." which he said "may come at any moment." Mr. Hill referred to the inadequate ter- minal facilities throughout the country and to the inability of the railroads to borrow money to better these facilities. He said that a bumper crop this year would simply blockade traffic. He said that overlegisla- ti->n by legislators "who don't know what they are legislating about" tends to ad- vance the cost of living. He prophesied that "when the next depression comes it will not last a few months, as in 1907. but it will be here for some time." HILL SEES "RAINY DAY" AHEAD Government Begins Ouster Ac- tion in Cleveland. Cleveland. June 18.— Alleging that it is a trust In restraint of trade, the government began suit to-day against the Great Lakes Towing Company, with headquarters in tnis city, to oust it from its charter. Tl c suit, which was filed in the United States Cir- cuit Court by District Attorney William R. Day. upon instructions from Washington, is based upon the Sherman anti-trust law. The Great Lakes Towing Company oper- ates tugs, lighters i-nd wreckers through- out the Great Lakes from Duluth to Buf- falo. It is incorpoated under the laws of New Jersey, and ie capitalized at 15,000,000. Nineteen individuals, officers and Ftockhold- ers of the company, also are named as de- fendants. There has been more or less talk of ouster proceedings against the company since 1902. whon the licensed tugmen were on a striKe against the company. Edward Smith, of Buffalo, Is president and treasurer of the company. James Davidson, of Bay City, Mi'-h A B Wolvin. of Duluth. and D. Sullivan, of Chicago, are vice-presidents. and If H. Wardwell. of this city, secretary. The directors include George A. Garretson, T F Newman, L. C. Hanna. H. G. Dalton. C E Grover and R- R. Rhodes, all of Cleveland; L M. Bowers, of Binghamton, N y'-C W Elphicke, of Chicago; William Livingstone, of Detroit; John A. McGean. of Montclair, N. J.. and William Dempster, of Buffaio TOWING "TRUST" SUIT Queens County Supreme Court Will Appoint Referee to De- termine Distribution. Fully fifty lawyers, representing as many interests, appeared before Justice Black- mar, in the Queens County Supreme Court, Ijohk Island City, yesterday morning, where the initial steps in a legal battle for th«» Hamersley millions were taken. The action was opened with a motion by Roland Reed Rasquin, attorney for William Ras- quin, jr., and Alfred H. Renhaw, executors of the last will of Lily Warren Beresford. for the appointment of a referee to make an accounting of the estate of Louis C. Hamersley and to determine to whom the estate shall be dlc-tributed. It was said this action will determine whether or not Louis Gordon Hamereley, pon of J. Hooker Hamersley, a cousin of the founder of the Hamerpley fortune, is to Inherit the estate, estimated to be worth from $5,000,000 to $15,000,000, or whether it is to be divided between the Mason heirs, descendants of the mother of the founder of the fortune. Justice Blackmar will an- nounce the appointment of a referee some time this week. In the voluminous petition handed up it was stated that Louis C. Hamersley gave all of his estate to his wife, the Duchess of Mariboroug-h, for her use during life. and at her death it was to po to the male issue of his cousin. J. Hooker Hamersley, if there were any; and should there be none, it was to be divided among such charitable institutions as his wife might elect. The petition further states that at the death of the testator J. Hooker Hamersley was not married, but he subse- quently married Margaret Chisholm, of which marriage there was only one male issue, Louis Gordon Hamersley. The fifty or more lawyers who are en- gaged in the case are divided over the proposition whether the provisions of the will passing the property to Louis Gordon Hamersley are valid. The attorneys of the young man, led by Attorney Henry H. Man, say that he is rightfully entitled to the estate. The other lawyers contend that the will spoke at the time of the testator's death, and. there teing no male issue alive at that time of J. Hooker H&mereley. the property would be divided between the heirs of the founder of the fortune, who are the Mason heirs. The will of Louis S. Hamersley named George G. Williams, Jacob K. Lockman and Lily Warren Beresford, the wife, as the executors. No final accounting by these executors or the executors of their estate has ever been filed. Such an accounting is now demanded.

A Specially Prepared Collection of

Women's Siammer DressesAt Very Low Prices

The question of revising passenger rates

on railroads in the territory east of the

Mississippi lUver was considered at a meet-Ing of passenger traffic officials here yes-

terday. It is said passenger rates east of

the Mississippi River are to be made uni-

formly either Pi or 3 cents a mile.it Is claimed by many railroad men

*willadvance the charges in 50 per cent of the

cases and reduce the tare in the other 60

per cent.The result of the conference was that the

rate clerks of all the roads will be In-

structed to prepare figures showing howmuch the railroads would lose by placing

all interstate rates on a 2^-cent basis. Now

th«re is no uniformity in interstate pas-

fencer rates, although in most instances a

2-cent fare prevails between interstate

points where*2-cent rate states adjoin. The

passenger men' adjourned to meet next

week.

Chicago. June 1&-The financial interestsIn the East have taken an active hand in

the- attempt being made to solve the prob-

lem of freight rates and railroad revenues.Thus far the financiers have been directing

their attention to trying to induce repre-

sentatives of large manufacturing intereststo accept increases in freight rate?.

George W. Perkins, of J. P. Morgan &

Co.. ended a three days' conference yester-

day between railroad men and officialsof the packing house companies, during

which he tried to act as mediator.Failing to.get the packing house interests

to agree to Increases of almost 25 per cent

In the rates from Chicago to the seaboard,

Mr. Perkins has returned to New York to

try to get the railroad presidents to agree

to impose an Increase- of only 6 cents a

Mpounds. According to the representatives

or the various packing firms, the propo-sition put up to them by the railroad mencomprehended the transfer of $3,7W,000 from

the net profit side of the combined pack-

ing house ledger to the net revenue side

of the combined Eastern railroad ledger.

As a matter of compromise the packing

house Interests offered to consent to an in-

crease which would cost them more than

J1.003.000 annually, but to this the railroadswould not agree. Now Mr. Perkins hopes

m get the railroads to listen to a compro-

mise measure and then to get the pack-

inghouse interests to agree to a little larger

concession than was contemplated in their

Chicago offer. The proceeding is unique

in railroad history.

Next Depression Will Be Prolonged,

He Tells Railroad Men.St Paul. June 18.-In an address before

the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen

and Enginemen yesterday James J. Hill

warned the men to go slow with their liv-

ing expenses and save their money for a

-rainy day." which he said "may come at

any moment."Mr. Hill referred to the inadequate ter-

minal facilities throughout the country andto the inabilityof the railroads to borrow

money to better these facilities. He said

that a bumper crop this year would simply

blockade traffic. He said that overlegisla-

ti->n by legislators "who don't know whatthey are legislating about" tends to ad-

vance the cost of living. He prophesied

that "when the next depression comes it

will not last a few months, as in 1907. butit will be here for some time."

whether or not Louis Gordon Hamereley,pon of J. Hooker Hamersley, a cousin ofthe founder of the Hamerpley fortune, is toInherit the estate, estimated to be worthfrom $5,000,000 to $15,000,000, or whether it isto be divided between the Mason heirs,

descendants of the mother of the founderof the fortune. Justice Blackmar will an-nounce the appointment of a referee sometime this week.

In the voluminous petition handed up itwas stated that Louis C. Hamersley gaveall of his estate to his wife, the Duchessof Mariboroug-h, for her use during life.and at her death it was to po to the maleissue of his cousin. J. Hooker Hamersley,

if there were any; and should there be

none, it was to be divided among such

charitable institutions as his wife might

elect. The petition further states that at

the death of the testator J. HookerHamersley was not married, but he subse-quently married Margaret Chisholm, ofwhich marriage there was only one maleissue, Louis Gordon Hamersley.

The fifty or more lawyers who are en-gaged in the case are divided over theproposition whether the provisions of the

will passing the property to Louis GordonHamersley are valid. The attorneys of theyoung man, led by Attorney Henry H.Man, say that he is rightfully entitled to

the estate. The other lawyers contend that

the will spoke at the time of the testator'sdeath, and. there teing no male issue alive

at that time of J. Hooker H&mereley. the

property would be divided between theheirs of the founder of the fortune, who

are the Mason heirs.The will of Louis S. Hamersley named

George G. Williams, Jacob K. Lockman

and LilyWarren Beresford, the wife, as

the executors. No final accounting by theseexecutors or the executors of their estate

has ever been filed. Such an accounting is

now demanded.
