An Advance.
The proof sheets of the new transcon-
tinental rates were received from Chica-
20 yesterday, and all those affecting
shipments from this section of the coun-
try are hereunto given. Shippers have
been watching eagerly for them for some
time, and the indications that were
given in the HERALD a couple of days
ago were tolerably correct. Those that
are here quoted must not be taken as
absolute, as changes may be made during
the next few days until the tariff is Of
ficially issued. 1t will be noticed
that there is an advance oi
about 20 per cent, and that
canned goods, the principal exports
from this section are now 81 20 instead
of s.. so, as heretofore. These rates will
70 into effect on January 1st, and will
supercede tariff No. s, now in use under
the number of probably Is. The quota
tions are specified as as to carload lots
and less than carload lots, and are from
this coast to New York. The system of
grading rates is OF course in effect, and
differentia,s to Chicago are allowed as
follows: Thirty cents on first-class ship
ments, and 30 down to ten cents on the
lowest grades. To st. Louis the quota.
tions are 96 per cent of those Of Chicago
and to the Missouri River 80 per cent oi
the Chicago figures.
