' New York March 2— A plea for
lower passenger rates and a readjust-
ment of freipht rates in such manner
as to provide "equitable distribution”
'of revenue from commodity tariffs
iwaa made today by Frederick D Un-
derwood president of the Erie rail-
jroad in a statement concerninp the re-
sumption of private control of the rall-
! roads He predicted that one of the
first benefits to be noticed by the pub-
lic will be more efficient service
"I am opposed to class freight
rates” Mr Underwood said “and to
higher passenger fares In fact I
think passenger fares should be re-
duced to two cents a mile throughout
the country except perhaps on certain
lines serving a limited territory and
upon which there are peculiar condi-
tions The railroads and the public
will in time come to understand that
these great enterprises can best pros-
per and the public best be served and
protected by commodity freitrht rates
“The passenger fare is a direct tax
on the people Commodity freight
rates to the individual meting almost
nothing For instance a man doesn’t
worry particularly if he has paid six
cents freight on his overcoat but if
he is compelled to pay five or six dol-
lars nice than he formerly did for a
trip to his old home he thinks he is be-
ing robbed Commodity freight
rates impose the least tax on the
things in greatest use and the highest
tax on the commodity of comparative
limited use
“There is a certain brand of saws
manufactured in an eastern city On
the Pacific coast I priced the saws in
various cities and 1 found them sell-
ing for exactly the same price in San
Francisco as thev did in the city of
manufacture What difference does
the freight rate make in that caRe to
the consumer? However I think the
increased passenger fares to the Pa-
cific coast makes considerable differ-
ence” The public is going to benefit under
private control Mr Underwood con-
tinued through the re-awakening of
keen competition among the railroads
The individual responsibility of rail-
roads he said will be enlivened

DECORATIONS ON THE MAINE MEMORIAL HE disagrees with lodge
Washngton March 2 — Convinced
that for the present their labors to
break the peace treaty deadlock are a
waste of time senate leaders moved to-
day to get the treaty out of the way
of pressing legislation and to lot the
issues raised by the ratification fight
go into the politcal campaign for de-
cision Under the plan agreed and appar-
ently acquiesced by all elements of
both parties compromise negotiations
on the crucial reservation to article
ten are to be dropped re-adoption of
the Republican reservation program of
last session is to be completed as a for-
mality and then a final ratification
vote is to be taken to put the treaty
out of the senate and into the cam-
paign Some senators predicted tonight that
the final vote which it is conceded on
both sides will record another failure
to ratify would come within three
days- Among most of the leaders
however the prediction was that the
smouldering debate would take at least
the remainder of the week to burn
itself out in spite of general co-operation
to keep it sharply under control'

MOTHER SEA GULL
"I've had quite a lot of experience"
said Mother Gull ‘Tve gone nboard
ships far out In
Ihe ocean and I’ve
let travelers who
were crossing the
ocean on the ship
feed ine right out
of their hands
"Of course It
was good of them
to feed me But I
wns also glad to
he tame for that
pleased them Of-
ten one will And
a very tame sea
gull
"Now the peli-
can Is a smart fel-
low" Mother Sea
Gull said
"Tell us about
him" sold the younger sea gulls
"You've been promising to tell us some
of your experiences for a long time
Will you tell us some now?’’
"Fes that Is wlmt I mean to do — tell
you quite a few of my experiences
one two three ninybe four experi-
ences I don’t know whether folks
number their experiences but I think
I will It Is something rather superior
to do I feel I’’
"Mother Sea Gull is going to tell Us
some-of her experiences" they all said
They were silling ou lop of the water
listening
"Well as 1 said I’ve gone aboard
ships far out In the ocean nud have
been tame euough to eat from people’s
hands That Is my first experience
Other sea gulls have done the same
thing— quite a number of them have —
but that doesn't tnke away from the
fact that it Is my experience too and
that I’m also tame
"My second experience Is about the
pelican The pelican Is a very smart
fellow as I began to tell you Re has
excellent eyesight but that Is not all
He has better eyesight than I have or
my family and he can see a fish far
down Id the water when he Is high lu
the air Down down he goes after it
"He puts It In his pouch and then we
can see the pelican with the fish stick-
ing lu his great pouch with Ihe old
silly tall of the fish hanging outside
"Of course I don’t mean the fish's
tall is so silly because If It were not
for that silly tall we wouldn’t be able
to get the fish
“It wriggles around In a silly fash-
ion though
"Well mony 1ms been the time I’ve
seen a pelican dive for a fish and then
I've seeu him catch It- for In another
moment the pelican has the fish In
his pouch
"So that Is my second experience
I’ve caught the fishes which the peli-
cans were smart enougn co see That
I’ve done many times but I’m count-
ing my experiences from the different
ones rather than from the number of
times I’ve hud the experience
"Now then my third experience has
been that I've gone on tea parties—
not for the tea but for the bread and
cake I've gone aboard ships where
folks have left me bread crumbs and
cake crumbs upon the deck and I’ve
eaten them I’ve been a fine guest at
tea parties If the folks were near by
I didn’t mind But In these cases I’ve
been usually by myself — or possibly
with other sea gulls but not- with
people
“My fourth experience Is that Tve
taken food awny from pigs and from
chickens along near the coast In Cali-
fornia I've been seen to do that a
number of times and I've driven away
great grunting greedy pigs until I
was through with what I wanted that
they had
"Ah ves I here are four fine experi-
ences I’ve had over and over again
And do not say'
because many sea
gulls have them
that they aren’t
my own experi-
ences loo for of
course they are If
I’ve hud them—
and I most cer-
tainly have
“But I do be-
lieve I want to tell
you of a fifth ex-
perience I've bad
Often and often
I've hud this ex-
perience I’ve
dropped clams on
the rocks which I
have taken for my
food Yes from
far up In the air I've dropped 'lie clams
and not because I wanted to get rid
of them No Indeed
I’ve dropped them on the rocks so
the clnm shells would break and then
I’ve gone down and had them I’retty
clever eh?
"Of course rII sea gulls o that too
or a great many of them do and it
shows I’m a smart old mother sea gull
not to change such sensible ways but
to do the same too”
“And we’ll do the same” sau the
younger sea gulls
