Proposed Recommendations, if Em. bodied in Act, Will Give Shippers Equal Eights in Enjoining Unreasonable Eates. Spokane, Wash., Oct. 11. Sweeping changes of vital importance to all parts of the country will be made in the Hepburn act, if the amendments suggested to President Taft during his recent visit to Spokane by Henry M. Stephens, chief counsel for the peti tioners in the Spokane freight rate case, are embodied in the interstate commerce regulations, now in opera- tion. The arinntion of these recommenda- tions will give the shippers equal riehts in enjoining unreasonable rates and make the commission an effective and impregnable body by devising ways and means of ascertaining and determining the actual value of rail- xoad properties, also providing for the I .DDointment of district commission- ers and the taxing of attorneys' fees aeainst the carriers in favor of the shiDDers in all cases where the pe- titioners are successful in whole or I in part in their litigation. I As this presentation.including a re- view of Spokane's fight against the transcontinental lines, for equitable rates on westbound shipments from St. Paul and common points, was made at the request of President Taft, there are reasons to believe that his) forthcoming messasre to Congress will recommend the adoption of these pro- visions in part or in full to success- fully cope with the situation. . " Mr. Stephens directs President Taffs attention to the fact that the law -permits the railroad companies to coming in contact with some exposed j although it was a source of regret to Charles P. Williams, of this city, are gated at the station to witness the ar go into the courts and ask for injunc- part of a generator upon which he I the voters, who do not regard a mu- defendants, was called in, the Federal 1 rival of the President. A committee of tions against, the orders of the com- mission, whereas the law contains no similar provision with reference to the rights and property of the shipper. It is suggested that the law be amend- ed so that the shippers wui nave me right to ask for a restraining order against unreasonable rates and that the court shall determine what is an equitable rate and then refer the mat- ter to the rate-making body to fix and enforce these rates. Dealing with this phase - of the law, Mr. Stephens says that it seems ax- lomatic that the shipper should nave the same remedies and the same Tights under the act as do the ship- pers, adding: In principle there can not be any possible difference between tne smp- per and the common carrier. If it is taking property without due process of law to require the common carrier to carry the property of the shipper at an unreasonably low rate, ana ior that reason it is a confiscation of the shipper's property to charge or col- lect from the shipper anything in ex- cess of a reasonable rate or reasona- fele charge, and to the extent that the shipper is charged an unreasonable rate, the snipper s property is taken without due process of law and is confiscated by the rail- road companies." Another amendment provides lor ... . . . . : . - the appointment oi commissioners ior the various districts and territories throughout the United States. A com missioner on the Pacific coast would liave iurisdlction in a territory 800 miles wide bordering on the ocean while another would be stationed in the interior, in the district east of the Cascade mountains in the state of Washington, east of the range of mountains in Oregon and for Idaho, Montana, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and districts similarly situated.

HEARST AND Theft ef New Party's Name Stirs The Former To Wrath Democratic Nominee Returns All Con tributlons and Declares He Will Depend Upon Record' Alone. McCarren Denounced. New York, Oct. 11. Rapid develop- ments of a sensational nature have in-jin jected ginger into what promised to be the most colorless municipal election in the history of New York city, Tammany, wnicn expeciea a wee, ago i parently destined to be listless and uninteresting, is now m a state or panic, and will have to fight strenu- ously and more aggressively than ever before to win. 1 The appearance in the campaign of I William R. Hearst, whose Indepen- dence League primaries emblem and new party name, The Civic Alliance, were stolen, the former by Tammany chieftains, the latter by McUarremtes, lent to the campaign the element of uncertainty and strife which had been lacKing. iiearst s nrst maecision as to whether he would accept the nom- matio being oyer, he is now fighting mad and determined to win. Hearst's barrel is open again, a long j list of orators has been engaged, and he will direct most of his fighting J against Tammany, paying scant at - tention to Bannard, the Republican candidate. Tammany will also be the target of the Republicans, who hope Hearst will appropriate enough votes from the Democrats to make Bannard j an easy winner.

"Women," he said, "should not be em ployed in this establishment. : They cannot keep a secret.1 You know they can't; it is impossible." This isnot' the view of American employers of women in positions of trust.- Opinions are well-nigh agreed that they are as a rule closer-mouthed about business secrets than are meh" clerks.

What Rat i of Locomoiicn Can Be Attained. Wilbur Wright Makes New Speed Record and Wants to Score Sixty or Seventy Miles ! an Hour. College Park., Md., Oct. 11. After fc leaking the world's record for flight jver a closed circuit a kilometer in iistance, Wilbur Wright Saturday pre dicted that he could attain a speed of .ixty to seventy miles an hour in an leroplane racer. He had just torn through the air n the government aeroplane at a rate ipproximating forty-six miles an nour, making a new record of 58 3-5 ieconds for 500 metres and return, in cluding a turn. To reach the high rate of speedr Mr. Wright said he would reduce the ize of the biplanes in the govern ment machine, and at the same time ighten their weight. For racing pur oses he said he would be content ith the "plant" in this aeroplane. Following the successful flights of .aturday morning, Mr. Wright made ..vo ascensions late in the afternoon. Jnce his engine seemed lazy and the leroplane settled to the ground 20ft eet from the starting rail. On one )t the afternoon flights Lieutenant ,ahm accompanied Mr. Wright. On che other Mr. Wright, alone, repeated; he performance of the forenoon by starting off the rail without the aid of weights. Lieutenant Lahm, for the first time, ..ssisted in guiding the machine dur- ng the flight in which he ascended, a third lever having been installed for the benefit of the officer, who is eing taught to navigate the machine.
