1t does not seem that the Salt Lake
jobbers are in any such frame of
mind as reports in a contemporary
would indicate. nor is there anything
TO indicate that the Jo'bbers' associa-
ton is going to meet early next week
and declare war.
y prominent member Of the associa-
ton was seen by 4 Herald reporter,
and when asked concerning the mat
ter, he said:
The joboers. ought to Go something
to stop the talk in some newspapers
that are proclaiming TO the world
that Salt Lake is being Disseminated
against and cannot do business in the
field that properly belongs TO it. We
have some grievances. OF course, but
we are comforting with the railroad
officials and all these conferences are
of a friendly nature. They show
disposition to adjust all difference on
a Just basis. What meetings are be
ing held and contemplated are not to
demand any radical changes, but 10
secure these adjustments"

From a circular letter sent out re-
Gently by Edward \. AIosley, secretary
of the interstate commerce commits
sion. all the roads will readily see
where they are at. The more import
ant reads as follows:
Section " requires that all freight
cars shall be equipped with hand holds
or grab iron in the sides and ENDS OF
Section V provides for the estab-
Nshment of a, standard height Of draw
bar. This has been fixed as follows;
1.-THE standard height for freight cars
measured perpendicularly from the
level of the tops of the rails TO the CEN
ter of the drawbar. for standard gauge
railroads in the United States, shall
be 3415 inches, and the maximum var
iation from such standard height to be
allowed between the drawbars OF
empty and loaded cars, shall be )
inches and for the narrOw-gauSe
railroads in the United States shall be
90 inches with the same maximum
variation betweer empty and loaded
cars.
Section VI forbids any railroad using
any locomotive engine, running any
train. or hauling or permitting 10 ne
hauled or to be used on its line any
provisions, and provides that in case
of violation it shall be liable 10 a pen
atty of 500 for each such violation
Section II provides for the use OF a
uniform coupler, that is, a coupler
which shall couple automatically by
impact. and which can be uncoupied
without the necessity of men going be
tween the ends of the cars; but, as this
provisiorr does not go into effect until
January 1. 1898, many are unaware that
other sections of the law become oper-
ative immediately.
OF these provisions of the law Whlcn
soon become effective, it may be well
to observe that not only may viola
ton thereof subject the railroad COM
pany to the penalty provided, but also
to heavy expenses incurred in the pay
ment OF damage claims on account OF
accidents and injuries to employees.
1t may be added that the com mission
will no doubt further extend the time
on couplers and air brakes one year,
but the minor clauses that have been
tided over for five months will not be
again extended The o. r. G. dele
