COMMISSION MODIFIES EXPRESS CO. FINDINGS
j| ^Decides to Allow Higher Hates to Provide Additional Income—Petition Shows Deficit.
y) WASHINGTON, July 22.—The Interstate commerce commission decided today that the revenues of the principal express companies of the United States are inadequate and modified its former orders to provide additional income. 5 The fabric of the present express I! rates is composed of three factors an allowance of twenty cents for collec"•J tlon and delivery of each shipment ?V: which does not vary with weight or distance a rail terminal allowance of twenty-five cents per 100 pounds which' vf varies with the weight, but not with -r* the distance, and the rail transportatlon rate per 100 pounds which varies il with the weight, the distance and the
sone. In accordance with the petition of the companies the commissjp modlS fled its order to permit transposition •|j of the first and second factors. The Ssj: «ffect is to increase the collection and •s? delivery allowance of five cents for ty each shipment and to reduce the rail terminal allowance at the rate of onela twentieth of one cent a pound.
Revenue Increased.
As the weight increases the five cent I increase is gradually reduced, so that Ion shipments of more than 100 pound* the readjustment will not make any I change. Substantially no commodity
1
rates will be affected. In all events I any changed rates will with few exceptions be substantially lower than those prevailing when the commiscion •established the zone system in Februi'wy, 1914.
By that means the express compenles are expected to Increase their gross revenues about 3.86 per cent. The commission's reports shows that the net operating revenues of the four big companies have decreased to a deficit of $1,132,811 in the year 1914-15, and In the same period operating income decreased $2,448,868.
The commission declined to change the basis of rates in zone No. 1, the territory east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio rivers.

Terre Haute Barber Says He Now Feels As Well As Any Man.
PREMIER PREPARATION TANLAC WARMLY PRAISED
"I Am Better and Stronger In Every Way Since Taking New Remedy," Declares Wilkie.
"Tanlac has done something all other medicines failed to do for me," said Williard Wilkie, a barber, who lives at 213 North Twelfth street, this city. "It has put my kidneys in fine condition, after months of treatment," he continued. "I had kidney and liver trouble in a very severe form. My system was all run down. I couldn't find a medicine that would touch the Bpot, it seemed. Then I heard of Tanlac and tried it. Almost immediately the pains in my back were relieved. Now the pain seldom bothers me. "My kidneys also became more regular than they had been for years. My liver, which had been inactive and sluggish for months, is now performing its functions properly. The 'tired feeling,' which formerly was with me constantly, has disappeared. I feel better and stronger In every way. "Tanlac certainly has worked wonders in my case. It haa put me in a fine physical condition. All praise to Tanlac."
Tanlac, the premier preparation, that has prolved of so much benefit to thousands of sufferers from stomach, liver and kidney trouble, rheumatism, nervous debility, catarrhal troubles and the like, is now being introduced in this city at the Buntin Drug Co., by the personal, direction of W. R. Cooper, the Tanlac man, who is explaining the medicine to the public.
BAD CHECK HISTORY HELD AGAINST ORMAN
Alleged Forger Pleads Guilty to Offence In Brazil Police Court— Tinder $1,000 Bond.
By Special Correspondent. BRAZIL, Ind., July 22.—The fraudulent check artist who was arrested at the Brazil Trust company at noon yesterday while trying to cash a check for $27.60, payable to Walter Oberholtzer, turned out to be George Orman, for whom officers have been looking for a month. Orman was born near Bowling Green but has been living with his father-in-law, Frank Hull, at Coal City, and also at Terre Haute and this city. He pleaded guilty to the chaJrge of uttering a forged check in police court last evening and was bound over to the circuit court, going to jail in default of $1,000 bond.
Yesterday he came to this city and presented a check for $35.45, payable to William Beamer and drawn on the Farmers' &. Merchants' bank at Clay City, at the Brazil Trust company. The check was turned down as Cashier Northway believed he was the same man who cashed the bad check there on June 22. Orman then took the check to the Riddell bank and obtained the money. Later he went back to the Riddell bank with a check for $27.60, payable to Walter Oberholtzer. Cashier Northway recognized him as the same man who had presented the Beamer check a short time before. The police were called and he was arrested.
In a pocketbook was found a check drawn by the Wildi-Leddy Lumber company, of Effingham, 111., in favor of the First National bank of Effingham for $291.00. The check was dated November 13th, 1908, and was not in Orman's handwriting. He claims to have found It in the Union station at Terre

CHAPTER XIII—Continued. That was all the reporter could gather from the gestures rather than the words of the old servant.
An additional difficulty now was that twilight drew on, and It was impossible for the reporter to discern Natacha's foot-prints. Was it true that the young girl had fled at such a moment, immediately after the poisoning, before she knew whether her father and mother were entirely out of danger? If Natacha were innocent, as Rouletabllle still wished to believe, such an attitude was simply incomprehensible. And the girl could not but be aware she would increase Kouprtane's suspicions. The reporter had a vital reason for seeing her Immediately, a vital reason for all concerned, above all in this moment when the Nihilists were culminating their plans, a vital reason for her and for him, equally menaced with death, to talk with her and to renew the propositions he had made a few minutes before the poisoning and which she had not wished to hear him talk about, in fearful pity for htm or in defiance of him. Where was Natacha? He thought maybe she was trying to rejoin Annouchka, and there were reasons for that, both if she were innocent and if she were guilty. But where was Annouchka? Who could say! Gounsovski perhaps. RouletaWlle Jumped into an lsvo, returning from the point empty, and grave Gounsovski's address. He deigned then to recall that he had been Invited that same' day to dine with the Gounsovgkls. They would no longer be expecting him. He blamed himself.
They received him, but they had long since finished dinner. Monsieur and Madame Gounsovski were playing a game of draughts under the lamp. Rouletabllle as he entered the drawing-room recognized the shining, fattlsrti bald head of the terrible man. Gounsovski came to him, bowing, obsequious, his fat hands held out. He was presented to Madame Gounsovski, who was besparkled with jewels over her black silk gown. She had a muddy skin and magnificent eyes. She also was tentatively effusive. "We waited for you, monsieur," she said, Bmfrking timidly, with the careful charm of a woman a little along In yeara who relies still on Infantine graces. As the recreant young map offered his apologies, "Oh, we know you are much ocupled, Monsieur Rouletabllle. My husband said that to me only a moment ago. But he

knew you would come finally. In the end one always accepts my husband's Invitation." She said this with a fat smile of importance.
Rouletabllle turned cold at this last phrase. He felt actual fear In the presence of these two figures, so actrociously commonplace, in their horrible, decent little drawing-room.
Madame continued: "But you have had rather a bad dinner already, through that dreadful affair at General Trebassofs. Come Into the dining-room." "Ah, so someone has told yon?" said Rouletabllle. "No, no, thanks I don't need anything more. You know what has happened?" "If you had come to dinner, perhaps nothing would have happened at all, you know," said Gounsovski tranquilly, seating himself again on the cushions and considering his game of draughts through his glasses. "Anyway, congratulations to Kouprlane for being away from there through his feer."
For Gounsovski there was only Koupriane! The life or death of Trebassof did not occupy his mind. Only the acts and movements of the prefect of police had power to move him. He ordered a waiting-maid who glided into the apartment without making more noise than a shadow to bring a small stand loaded with zakoftskls and bottles of champagne close to the gametable, and he moved one of his pawns, saying, "You will permit me? This move is mine. I don't wish to lose it."
Rouletabllle ventured to lay his hand on the oily, hairy flat which extended from a dubious cuff. "What Is this you tell me? How could you have foreseen It?" "It was easy to foresee everything," replied Gounsovski, offering cigars, "to foresee everything from the moment Matiew*s place was filled by Priemof."
Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury
as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do Is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney 4 Co., Toledo, O., contains no mercury, and Is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free.

"Well?" questioned Rouletabllle, recalling with some Inquietude the sight of the whipping In the guards' chapel. "Well, this Priemof, between ourselves," (and he bent olose to the reporter's ear) "is no better, as a policeguard for Koupriane than Matiew himself. Very dangerous. So when I learned that he took Matiew's place at the datcha des lies, I thought there was sure to be some unfortunate happening. But It was no affair of mine, was it? Koupriane would have been able to say to me, 'Mind your own business.' I had gone far enough In warning him of the 'living bombs.' They had ben denounced to us by the same agency that enabled us to seize the two living bombs (women, if you please!) who were going to the military tribunal at Cornstadt after the rebellion In the fleet. Let him recall that. That ought to make him reflect. I am a hrave man. I know he speaks 111 of me but I don't wish him any barm. The Interests of the empire before all else between us!

one talks. But you did not coxa* And, while you were dining down there and while Priemof was on guard at the datcha, that aiinoying affair SOadame Gounsbvski has spoken about hap-^ pened." .1
Rouletabllle had not 'sat down. In' spite of Madame Gounsovski'® Insistences. He took the box of dears brusquely out of the hand of the chief of the secret service, Who had continued tendering them, for this detail of hospitality only annoyed his mood, which had been daxk enough lor hours and was now deepened by what the other had Just said. He comprehended: only one thing, that a man named Priemkof, whom he had never heard spoken of, as determined as Matiew to destroy the general, had been entrusted by Koupriane with the gttard of the datcha dee lies. It was necessary to warn Koupriane Instantly. "How it Is that you have not done so already, yourself Monslur Gounsovski? Why wait to speak a.b$ut -It to me? It Is unimaginable."
