RATES TO BE RESTORED.
Commissioners Stahlman Talks Of the
Future of the Association.

Atlanta, Ga, June 2S.-Commissioner
Stahlman, Of the Southern Railway and
Steamship. Association, who reached At
lanta to-day, announces that a circular
has been issued by the association order
ing a restoration Of rates that were cut
recently, on Aug. /. The old rates on
eastern business will be resumed at that
time unless the association changes its
mind at the meeting TO be held July II. at
HarrOyate, tenn. Commissioner Stahl-
man does not think there is much chance
Of this, however, unless the
association dlssolves, which he
also regards as highly i'm
probable. In speaking of the reduc-
tions, which averaged 90 per cent, Com
missioner Stahlman said the association
made the big cuts on account of the Sc
cret knitting Of rates by individual lines,
which were actuated by the hard times
and a desperate desire TO get business.
The effect of the lesson administered by
the association, the commissioner thinks,
has been good. Both railroads and ship
pers are now anxious for a restoration,
the shippers because they do not like IN
certainty, and the railroads because they
are losing money. After this Commits
sioner Stahlman does not think there will
be much secret rate cutting in violation Of
the rules Of the association, at least for
some time TO come.

carriers set up the com petition of various

tween Memphis and Charleston. The

tons do not justify carriers in departing
from the long and short haul rule in the
absence Of an order of relief issued by the
commission under the proyiso clause of
the fourth section, and reaffirms its CON
struction Of the long and short haul pro-
visions as laid down in the

Atlanta, Ga, June 2s.-The quashing Of
the indictments against E. S. McCandless,
ex-cashier of the Gate City Bank, who
was charged with aiding and abetting
Lewis Redwine in his embezzlement, has
caused that gentleman to register vigor-
Gus protest against what he regards as
outrageous treatment at the hands of
Capt. Harry jackson in particular.
and the United States court in
general. Mr.. McCandless was out
of the city when the indictments
were mol pressed on Tuesday and only re-
turned to-day. Shortly after his arrival
he called upon his attorneys to see if
there is not some way by which his true
relation to the Gate City Bank can be
brought out and the guilt fixed where it
belongs. He wanted a trial and was
willing TO pay the expenses of the prose
cution. Capt Jackson's action in having
the case quashed, he says, shuts
him of from the complete exoner-
alton 70 which he is enti-
tied after having borne the burden of un-
Just accusation for year and more Just
what course Mr.. McCandless will adopt
Is not known, but it is more than likely
that he will cause some interesting de-
velopments to be made. 1t is understood
that Capt. jackson went to the Columbus
o., penitentiary to get an interview
with Lewis Redwine and a statement to
use against McCandless, but Redwine re.
fused even to see him.
