What This Means.

Any one who should take the amount
of freight now transferred over each of
these lines and estimate the saving to
the people in freight by the rate of 1898
as compared with that in 1888 would be
amazed at the figures. The ton mileage
Or number of tons moved one mile in
Minnesota in 1893 was 2, 424 ,018, 162. A
difference of but one mill in the charge
on this amount would be nearly $2,-
100000.

Advantage Of voluntary Action.

tits fortunate that these very mater
ial reductions have been made in many
instances as the result Of conference
and persuasion, rather than as a conse-
quence Of the arbitrary power, by au-
thorlty complied with only under pro-
test. 1t has been found possible in that
way to secure to shippers of Minnesota
most advantageous rates and, in many
cases, better terms have been granted
voluntarily by the railroad than could
have been forced out of them by ap-
peals to the courts. The amount OF
saving to the people of the state by pro-
gressive reduction of freight rates in
the last 10 years may be estimated from
a study of the following table The
figures given are the average receipts
on freight per ton per mile by the re-
cpnotiyp roads MON Fi0no6.
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1894-10-31
Reductions Since 1887.

In 1887 new railroad law was en-
acted, under which the commission had
arbitrary power to fix rates. It was
under this law that the reduction of
switching charges at Minneapolis was
ordered, and also a reduction in milk
rates. The latter was acceded to by the
railroad companies, but the former was
carried to the United States supreme
court and the decision of the state
supreme court was there reversed. In
the year 1888, again at the instance Of
the commission, grain rates from the
Red River valley were reduced about 15
per cent. The control by the same body
of men of the matter of freight
rates and all elevator inspec-
ton and char has been very
advantageous. a tree market has been
secured and the railroads have become
more liberal every year i'll encouraging
and facilitating direct shipment by the
farmers. In 1894 handling, insurance
I'D storage charges on grain were re-
duced to cents for the first 15days,
u cent per bushel for each 10 days
thereafter of the first three months,
and cent for each 80 days after that
time.

BOX CAR THIEVES
Believed to Have Robbed Freight Train
While Crossing the River
April 10.


While Crossing the River
Officers Owens and Arterbridge ar
rested four men this morning about 1
o'clock on suspicion of having stolen a
box of clothing from freight car.
Their names are Charles Anderson,
James Harrington, Samuel Levy and ].
c. Try, all residents of Topeka. The po-
lice made a search of Ury's premises and
found twenty-four dozen pairs of over
alls. Continuing the search, they saw a
box floating in the river below the Rock
Island bridge. Hugo Felitz, who resides
on the river bank below the bridge, went
out in boat and brought it to the shore.
The overalls, it is believed, had been ia
ken from this box. 1t is supposed that
the goods were stolen from a box car on
the Rock Island, and that the box was
thrown out of the car as the train crossed
the bridge.
]. e. Try is the man who was fined
800 for selling liquor last summer and
was released by the council because he
was sick. The men will be turned over
to the county authorities.
The box that is supposed to have held
the overalls was taken to the police sta
ton and will be used as evidence against
the men.
