HOT TO flESiST rate: Mucin Seems Unlikely That Express - Men Will Do More Than v Make Protest Wasbiagton,' "July 17. ThraaUned with nxoascution under, tbe Sherman Anti-Trust law oo tb one band and beset by fear of Government coodenr oatitm under a parcels poet lav on -tot Other, itSMina oatikely that the . ex press companies will resist seriously the reeedt; order'' of the Inter StaU Commerce Commission making sub s tan tial redaction in express rates. Eepreientatives of tha companies will probably appear here in October and file formal protest against the proposed reduction in their ratee bat .they will go oe further B the opinion, of Govern. ment ofBcials. ' ToaVi sa WirttW InSaate oubiie ooinlon ' mint thesa earrieM even to a more dangerous degttfa ' than in the past. It baa developed lint the Department of Justice is studying the 'report of the commission to determine whether or not the express companies were in any agreement m restraint of trade. At the same time department officials look ed op the Supreme Court's opinion in the Northern Securities ease to see if it had any bearing upon tha "family interest" brought to light ia connect ion with the commission's Investigation. Even though" the Department of Justice does not hale the express com panies into court, the feeliog that a parcels post system should be establish ed, which would absorb the express business of the country, has taken a stronger hold upon Congress than ever as a reiult of the findings of the commission. With these facts before them, there seems no reason te believe that the ex press companies will make a4atermined fight against the order ef tm commis sion as new contemplated. jThe com panies, it is believed, would be .glad to get off with no severer penalty than the reduction in rates recommended by the Inter State Commerce Commission. Vandals.

The police are k eeping a sharp lookout to see if they can't cap ture the vandals.
