FREIGHT DISCRIMINATION.
Mankato Wants Coal Rates Pro
Rata to ST. PauI.

Rata to St. Paul.
Hearing before the railroad and
warehouse commission was had yes
terday of the complaint made by
Gen. Pope on behalf of the Man
katO board Of trade in the mat
ter of alleged discrimination and extor-
tionate charges for the transportation of
coal from Duluth to Mankato over the
Paul & Duluth and the Minneapolis s.
st. Louis railroads. The charges were
made jointly against the roads, the
Mankato people claiming that they
were operated jointly.
The st. Louis road appeared by its
attorney, Mr.. Bum, and objected to
being required tc give testimony affect
Ing the Duluth road or to being con-
nected In any manner with it, as they
had nothing ito do with the rates of
the Duluth road. The rates from Du-
luth to Mankato are s2.7O per ton. and
from Duluth to Minneapolis and st.
Paul, S1.50; the distance from Duluth
to st. Paul is 156 miles and from St.
Paul to Mankato, via the st. Louis line,
ninety miles. The contention is that
the rates from Duluth to Mankato
are proportiQnately higher than they are
from Duluth to st. Paul. Gen. Pope,
who made the complaint, filed vast
amount of documentary testimony, ag-
gregating perhaps 10000 words, consist
ing largely of time cards and extracts
from time cards showing the rates
charged for similar distances and gem
orally in reference to the subject. Nh.
merouS objections were made by Mr..
Clark, who appeare d on behalf of the
Duluth, but all were finally withdrawn
in consideration of an adjournment for
one week to enable him to fully examine
the testimony offered by Gen. Pope, and
prepare an answer to all points en-
braced in the same. He said the Ques-

either as firm or corporation, in White
water, until about the 18TH OF April,
1892 when the Minneapolis Esterly
Harvester company was organized, ana
their business and interests were as
signed to it.
1.-The removal of the Minneapolis
harvester works to st. Paul, and its
| large Increase OF capital, and the orgaII-
IZatlon OF the rival institution in Minnie
apoliss created, as will be remembered,
great deal of newspaper comment at
the time.
From the very first the Wood COM
pany disputed the right of the Minne-
apoliS concern to manufacture in the
state OF Minnesota, a right which the
Minneapolis company and its promoters
as strenuously insisted that it pos
Sessed.
''The decision of the question of dis
puted right rested upon tile interpreta-
ton of the license contract to the Ester
ly firm. If this contract was asSignahie
then the Esterly company had the right
to manufacture in the state OF Mime
sofa. 1t it were not assignabie it had
no such right. and its acts were an in
frlngement of the exclusive rights of
the Woods company. On this point
Judge Nelson's decision is emphatic,
and leaves 20 doubt of the final result.
The defendant claims to have invested in
Its business over million dollars, which
measures in some degree the amount
really involved in the issue of the liti-
cation. Although the hearing four
weeks ago, upon which this decision
was rendered, was only upon tie ques-
tons of Jurisdiction and the right TO ii
preliminary injunction, yet the merits
OF the case were actually under consid-
Grafton almost as fully as if it had been
final hearing. Should the final hear
ing result i'll the same manner as this,
it would leave the Wood Harvester COM
pany in exclusive possession of the
state or Minnesota for the purpose of
manufacturing under the Appieby- pat
ontS."

Mr.. Powers on Child Labor.

A local paper having criticised Com
missioner Powers and threatened him,
in the form of insinuations, for his
efforts to enforce the laws in relation to
child labor, Nh. Powers takes the posi-
ton stated by Judge Willis. that he has
no discretion as to the laws be is Gale d
upon to enforce. He locks at these
questions, is true, more as to their moral
effects, perhaps because of his training
as minister, ana more to the spirit
than to the letter; but as to being de-
tered from doing his duty, nothing
shall prevent that. If the courts set
aside the laws; that is their privilege.
He cannot question the laws. He
wished to thank Judge Willis for the
noble stand he had taken in his grand
jury instructions and criticisms.
