That there mats be no opportunity for secret understanding between railroads and favored shippers, as well as to furnish the Commission with all necessary information, every book, paper, and memorindum of every railroad, water transportaion company or pipe line is open to the Commisalon. CAUSE OF IT ALL. The inception of this law, to whose adoption President Roosevelt and his supporters in Congress bent every influence and energy, was insignificant from public and corporation standpoint. Cases of notorious discrimination had been known for years, but the match which fired the conflagration was produced when Logan C. Bullitt, of Philadelphita, brought to the attention of Congress the discrimination of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad against his company, the Red Rock Fuel Company, of West' Virginia.

Testimony in detail of the railroad officials charged with discrimination, and the fact that they had defied the orders of the Interstate Commerce Commission, was produced and created a profound sensation, and an investigation on the subject of rebates, discrimination and kindred subjects in the coal and oil Industries was ordered by Congress, with the hearty approval of President Roosevelt and his advisers. Then followed the investigation which rocked the railroad foundations of the country. It was shown that not only was there the grossest discrimination In favor of certain coal shippers among Eastern railroads, but that railroad ofAcials were large holders of "gift" stock In companies which were being favored. Washington, Aug. of this week will be the most important day in.

E. Iowa, and James S. Hartin, of Chicago. The member of the Interstate Commerce Commission enter upon their newly defined and extended. a duties with a high degree of confidence.

The new law carries out very largely the Ideas that have been recommended and suggested by the commission for years past as necessary for the effective regulation of Interstate commerce. From all that can be learned there is a general disposition among railroads to accept the new law and comply with. its requirements in the matter publishing the schedules and complying with other provision of publicity in the act. There will be no ceremonies on Tuesday in connection with the organIzation of the new commission and the new law will go into effect without any particular notice. As newly formed the commission will consist of the following members: Judson C.

Clements, of Georgia; Chas. Martin Knapp, of New York; Prouty, of Vermont; Francis M. Cockrell, of Missouri; Franklin Lane, of California; E. E. Clark, of Iowa, and James S.

Harlan, of Chicago. Under the provisions of the new law not more than four commissioners can be of the same political party. This restriction has been observed and the following is the political division of the body: Republicans, Prouty, Clements, Clark Cockrell and and Harlan; Lane.

Patrolmen Ross and McAndrew, with the aid of the patrol wagon, on Saturday night arrested Andrew Layman and Joseph Suborish charge of larceny, preferred by Powell Petritus, liquor dealer, who claims the two broke into his store house and BARNUM BAILEY'S BIG CIRCUS IS IN THE CITY ONCE AGAIN The circus is here. Where Saturday was a rolling stretch of green fields, today there is a sweeping sea of canvas. Tents cover twelve acres of ground.

Within them is varied entertainment for all, and old and young alike have given themselves up to the delights of a day with the Greatest Show on Earth. Precisely 3 o'clock Sunday morning the first of the special trains pulled in from Wilkes-Barre. Three others followed in the next couple of hours, and then the performers and the monster array of paraphernalia of the Barnum aBiley circus was here. No time was lost in beginning the work of preparation. Cars were shunted to the grounds and the work unloading began.

Great rolls of canvas were distributed, each in its proper place, with marvelous quickness. Piles of poles and stakes, coils of rope were thrown down where needed, and in an incredibly short time the tents were springing here and there where but a few moments before there had been no indication of their presence. Then the animals were taken from the trains, some led by attendants, others driven in the great wheeled cages, all to be gazed at by the scores of men and women were not wholly unrepresented by any means either--who gathered early in the morning to get a first glimpse of the show of many wonders. To watch the preparations of a circus is in many ways no less fas- cinating than to watch the performances themselves. Tinsel and bright costumes, the blaze of the bands, the pink lemonade and peanuts, are all absent when the preparations are on foot, but one then has an opportunity of seeing something of the system without which a circus would be disorganized and farcical.

Long before the time set for this afternoon's performance thousands had gathered in and about the tents. Crowds jostled one another in their excited efforts to enter the fields where so much to please and interest old and young was in waiting. Others came panting and dusty, from the end of the street car run, some after riding on the footboard where inches were at a premium, so great was the rush to see the Greatest Show on Earth. It was a great crowd. Men of middle age and more, and little girls who might he their grandchildren; the man of recognized means, and the day laborer; country people and people of the city; all sorts and conditions of women--all pressed eagerly forward.

And what of the show itit one can say the greater part of the praise given it in other places has been deserved. Something of its size may be gained from the statement that its tents cover twelve acres of ground, its employes number its daily expenses are given as over it has 690 horses; in its menagerie are over 200 rare wild animals. Tonight's complete performance begins at 8 o'clock. therefrom a case beer. extracted fined by Magistrate Gillespie in yesterday.
