In the interior the trouble grows OF the failure Of the
existing roads to establish pools thing which they nave

the past year 10 attempt TO control rates Take Peoria
for instance" said a pool officer yesterday
" there are ten fast freight lines scramblng
for the business there or nearly ms many
agents as could eat up all tho produced about the
placel I" "What IL your rcmedyi" was asked. "Can
you get the railroads consent to discharge their s0c
OF freight and abandon fast freight lines THOSE
are future that must accomplished was the
reply prominent trunk line officer said: suppose
TO its old tactics OF raising and cry about other lines
cutting whenever Its rates met and after ayetny M
Opon break go back to its old Irregularities Whatever
