The President, Hon Pitt ". Hyde. call
ed to order and the minutes of the last

The secretary then reported to the ASSOC

THE SEW TARIFF.
Mr.. II. J. Humphrey of poultney, ca
planned for the Information Of the associa-
ton some Of the points of difference be-
tween the former tariff on freights for the
west and The new tariff lately published
He found that the Merchants Dispatch had
five classes of freight BY comparing this
new tariff with their spetial tariff he found
a difference OF one cent per hundred in IA
vor Of the Delaware End Hudson Canal
Company. This was also better for the
shipper as well as the road. for the reason
that last year the rate from Schenectady to
Cleveland was "a cents per hundred, re-
duction of six cents to Toledo reduction
of six and a half cents; to Chicago pre-
viously 81, now i6 cents. There was no
difference in frcights until We get to Buff
falo and one and half cents more TO
Buffalo.
The President said that it seemed that
the matter stood in about this way; that
heretofore shippers of slate have had an
opportunity TO ship ria Merchants Dispatch
in fourth class. By that class freights
made up from New York city and for.
warded here add one-hai cent Now it
was changed from fourth to fifth class and
one cent added. So that if this difference
has occurred between the Delaware and
Hudson and the Merchants Dispatch then
the former company got S26 per car from
here to Schenectady, when they formerly
got S2j per car This reduction was
a benefit to shippers only in so fan
as they ship to those points west. If they
reach Erie it was reduction Of some forty
cents on a square. Buffalo could not here
after be considered place of shipment as
no ncrson could afford to kccn n slate vorf
there as against the quarres, for the west
ern trade. We could reach the west here
better than could the Buffalo dealers
