ILLINOIS ROADS FILE RATE SUIT Hearing Will Be Held Tomorrow in Chicago. No decision will be made by (he public service commission on the petition of the railroads of Indiana for Increases in freight rates to equal those granted by the Interstate commerce commission, and the petition of tbe internrbans of the state for rates commensurate with any rate granted the steam carriers, until the controversy over the Illinois rates, now In progress, is settled. It was stated today by E. I. Lewis, chairman of the commission. The case of the petition of Illinois railroads. wfjo were granted a 33 1-3 per cent increase in intrastate rates, instead of the 40 per cent granted by the interstate commerce commission for interstate ra'.ea, was reopened recently and hearing wts conducted In Chicago last Thursday. Since time, however, suit has been brought bpfore the federal body by the Illinois railroads, to determine whether er not the state commission may grant increases In intrastate rates lower than those allowed by the federal commission. This bearing will be held tomorrow in Chicago, and is one of the most important cases before the interstate commerce commission at this time, Mr. Lewis declared. Mr. Lewis intimated that whatever decision is reached by the federal commission may be contested in the Vnited States courts and that it may be some time before any definite conclusion re T garrling increases in rates will be made. INDIANA SITI ATION HINGES ON ILLINOIS. * The entire situation in Indiana, he stated, hinges on the case in Illinois, and increases contemplated in other states will be guided uio by this decision of the federal commission. Mr. Lewis said the opinion given in federal court yesterday by Judge Francis E- Baker of Chicago in the suit to prevent the operation of the special coal and food commission in Indfana, has a direct bearing on the rate situation in the state. He said the power of the state to regulate industries, which directly as-. feet the public, such as the coal industry. under its police power, would indicate that the state is sovereign iu deciding rate cases affecting intrastate commerce. Should the decision of the interstate commerce commission in the Illinois controversy be contested in the federal court 6. then it may be many months before other states would have a parallel by which they might be guided la their rate cases, Mr. Lew is said. However, it Is expected some decision that will tend to give relief in some form will be made by the Indiana commission soon.

WATERMELONS TURN OUT TO BE LOVELY GIRLS In Hussey’s *Tattle-Tales’—Nifty Steppers With * Listen Lester f

The moon “am a-shinin’ ” on a Georgia watermeloi^patch. The orchestra is playin' a sweet whistling little tune called “Watermelon Time,” and William Worsley is singing the lyrics concerning kisses, girfs and melons. Suddenly the watermelon P|tch comes to life and the melons turn out to be tbe piettiest members of Jimmy Hussey's “Tattle-Tales.” anew revue wbich opened the 1920-21 season ot the Murat yesterday. * This exquisite little song number is just one of the many offered In the latest edition to tbe modern revue craze. -The girls are dressed to represent a watermelon patch and the effect gained illustrates tbe modern method of putting over a song. . When this melody is over and the watermelon girls are off the stage, a chance is given for a number of the meu dancers of tbe company to do some nifty stepping which for a time threatened to bold up the show yesterday afternoon. Then while the watermelon patch scenery is being changed Joe Browntng, as the Tattler, gives a modern recitation on woman and her ability to make a “boob” out of the men. Then the scene shifts to a boxing parlor. where Johnny Dundee, a real scrapper. and Jimmy Hussey, who It so very, thin, stage a boxing affair. It would be sad if Dundee ever forgot and ltt bis wicked right shoot out in earnest, as the effect probably would be more vicious than a hundred kicks from a white mule. Then the entertainment ends in the chorus, the principals singing "TattleTale;.” The show has an unusual start with members of the Knocking club appearing with their hammers and followed by Joe Browning as the chief knocker, who talks “turrible” about the show. He is pushed off the stage and Jaz music gets into full swing and before one knows it Rae Samuels, always a success. In vaudeville, lands right in the middle of the stage. Rae knocks a home run with a modern jazz song called “You've Got to Give t&e Babies a Bottle,” aad sbe giTes a grown up male baby a very interesting bottle, very interesting It looks. Miss Samuels has another sure fire song in 'Tip-Tip-Tlppy-Canoe, ’ in which -she proves that historical Pocahontas was not so slow, and that she was a very wise girl, because when Pocahontas went for a ride in a canoe she always took her life preserver with her. Hussey, Miss Samuels and Joe Brovpi- 1 !ng have a very rapid burlesque, it might bo called, on the modern bedroom farce, and it has everything which such plays possess except the bathroom. Oh, yes, the bed is there. Shoulder shaking comes into its own when Rae Samuels becomes "Shimmy Sue,” but the splendid art of Miss Sameuls raises the entire number from a vigorous physical exercise to the best jazz number in the show. There are a number of rather Interest-! ing dance numbers, elaborate scenery and a good looking chorus which can sing and dance. All in all Jimmy Hussey appears to know what the people want, and he gives .1 to them in large doses. “Tattle Tales” Is at the Murat all week.—W. D. H. -I- -i- -IHFIDER IS KING BFE IN '‘LISTEN LESTER.” In this year's edition of “Listen Les ter” Fred Holder is the biggest part of the show. Holder has enlarged tbe part of William Tenn. Jr., the fixer, until his pari shines above all the others and the large audience last night which greeted the opening of tbe season at English'* expressed its approval of Heider's efforts in no uncertain terms. To get a laugh Heider has only to stretch his long legs, give a bounding jiinir* over the hotel desk and those out In froi • ■ •viUi delight. ■'itr of this man Heider is of • Which appeals to both the m. ..line members of the audlic 1. .tt- over his song and dance numbc.g in splendid fashion, especially a dance iu the second act. which ties up the show for some little time. One of the pleasant events of the evening was the first appearance here of Miss June Roberts, whom we are fold Is just seventeen, in the role of Mary Podge, which was played last season by Ada Mae Weeks. Miss Roberts has grace and ability, both when dancing and singing, aad in the big dumber in the final act she does some nice acrobatic business. The future looks very bright for this little slip of a girl. Tbe chorus this season is a good looking crowd of steppers which is on* of the advertising features of the show. As usuaul, the singing of the Four Entertainers is another reason why the show ran so long last night. vmuM E Sttjstrsat gl" Ay*.

t ‘SCRATCH MY BACK ’ Introducing Ileiene Chadwick as Madeline in Goldwyn's latest comedy, wbich Is now on view at the Ohio. Helene is the fair owner of the back which is “scratched” in the movie, “Scratch My,Back.” This Is not an Improper comedy, but light, breezy and funny amusement os done by Miss Chadwick and T. Roy Barnes as the scratcher of the back.

These four men really know how to sing and they need only to sing a few words to convince all out In front that they are one of the features of the show. “Listen Lester” does not suffer In comparison to the company seen here last season. As long as Fred Heider and the Harmony Four are in the cast the show is worth the money. “Listen Lester” is on view all week at English's—W. D.

assertion Is proven by a visit to the Lyric this week. Probably it is not the suit but what’s in it that attracts the crowds, but the crowds are attracted just the same. Lottie Mayer, who has probably slipped on a bathing suit more often than any other woman in this country, is the feature act at the Lyric this week. She is assisted by four girls who first appear from under a big "umbrella and the girls forget for a minute that they are diving girls and attempt to sing. But when Lottie appears and begins singing a song about putting on n batbign suit, two of the girls take refuge In n transparent bathhouse while preparing for thefr work In the big tank. The girls make a number of dives and then Miss Mayer appears In a black and white bathing suit and soon shows Niat she is one of the best divers in vaudeville today. She has been splashing in vaudeville for many years, and her act is considered a sure box office attraction. The act this season is well mounted and the bathing suits are modest. The remainder of the bill runs too much to melody to be well balanced. The remainder of the bill consists of Keno, Keys and Melrose, a Spanish musical trio of ability; Three* of a Kind, singers; Gllck and Bright In songs; Huyler aryd Bann, entertainers, and a gentleman in rube attire who performs with a pig.

DANIELS SWINGS INTO POLITICS .

No great row was made about that. It was rather cordially received, but it *0 overshadowed the ambition of certain parties and senators that they determined to bind it with “new cords,” of reservations until it looked like a corpse rajther than a covenant. This is the offense, and only this, which makes Mr. Harding reverse the entire foreign policy of the government. THWARTED IN "Every step. “The dominant reactionary leaders of the senate, thwarted In every step for seven years by the man in the whitehouse, said to themselves: ‘lf Woodrow Wilson Is abk to lead in the parliament of man and make this hard-won peace permanent and universal, our hope of a party victory in .1920 will go glimmering. Our only chance Is to imitate the silversmiths of Ephesus and raise such a clamor that tbe people will forget their devotion to the God of Peace and unwittingly help us to save our craft by thinking we are tbe preservers of Americanism.’ "Their hostility to the peace covenant was born out of political desperation. By tbe craft of politics those silversmith, who are 'getting the money’ for the republican campaign fund, have their wealth. They pitched their campaign, from the round robin sent to Parts to the latest fetish bf an international court, upon the plane first of shuffle and scuttle and then of nebulous vagueness.
