HUMBOLDT C0. BEGINS 6U?T,
(Continued from Page l.)
wliide at the same time all wfcarfage
charges made against freight hand- <
led by the defendant steamship com- '
j panies and transferred across .Moore's
wharf to the railroad and destined to
the interior points were included In
the railroad company's portion of
the joint rate received by it on |
through billing by the defendant
steamship companies.
From April l, 1909, until April l,
1911, it Is alleged, the railroad com
pany continuously refused to enter in
to *ny through freight arrangement
such as is enjoyed by other steam -
ship companies whereby freight could '
be shipped through on through bills
of lading issued by the Humboldt
Steamship Company from Seattle to
points beyond Skagway, on by which
rassengers could be ticketed for a
through journey from Seattle to in
terior Alaska points.
The petition recites that the Hum
boldt Steamship Company continuous
ly requested the same agreements and
privileges enjoyed by the Alaska and
Pacific Coast Steamship companies,
but their entreaties were met with a
deaf ear.
It is asserted that consignors and
consignees of freight refused to pay
the excessive freight rates made up
of the sum of the local rates plus
the wharfage charges, passengers re
tused to pay the excessive passe-nser
rates made up of the sum of the
local rates and refused to submit to
the annoyance and delays incident to
| the rechecking of baggage at Skag
way, and the Humboldt Steamship
Company suffered heavy loss in
revenue.
| During 'he years 1905, 1906, 1907
land 1908, it is asserted, the steamship
Humboldt was operated under a joint
through traffic arrangement with the
Pacific & Arctic Railway & Naviga
tion Company and such through
freight and passengers constituted a
large part of the business done by
the plaintiff company, whi'-h was
highly profitable and remunerative,
but that the alleged conspiracy en-|
tered into by the defendants has re
sulted in important losses in revenue
by preventing the Humboldt Steam-!
ship Company ifom participating in
such through business on as favoraW I
terms as its competitors and by form- 1
ing a monopoly of the transportation I
business between Seattle, Ska<rway
and particularly to points in interior
Alaska.

MYSTERY SURROUNDS THE
DUNCAN McFADDEN GRAVE.
Once more romantic ground |
where lies the bones of Soapy Smith.;
reek of mystery. Today the old
Cemetery has the appearance of *
treasure trove Is'.an<V, the result of
the discovery that the grave of
Duncan MoKadden on which the sod
has srown sine? the early days at
'&S, has tlie appearance of & newlj
furrowed field.
Lou^.ng belief to the theory that
the grave has been tampered with is
Uie discovery on the part of Marshal
i ? *nzo o i a two dunnage bags, a pair
of gloves, t wo lanterns and a num
ber of picks and shovels in the n<?r
> icinity.
This discovery was made last night
This morning an attempt was made
by City Marshal Pa?e and Mathew
Pandeen to determine if anything
had been burled in the newly dis
turbed plot. Upon digging down as
far as the cround had been disturbed j
by tiie midnight marauds it was
found that nothing had been p'aoed
there.
It is the opinion of all who hare;
viewed the ?? ene of the mystery that
it was for the purpose of recovering
a "plant" that the grave was dis
turbed. This "riant" may hare con
sisted of gold bullion stolen in the
early days a*d hidden until the ex
citement. had passed over. Marshal
Fonjto will make an exhaustive Ins
tigation Into tho affair.
