DODGE AS PEACEMAKER
May HAVE HAD a HAND IN ThE
LONE STAR TARIFF.
Also Conferred with bartholomew
and Ripley and Then Went
to tho southern Pacific.

Galveston, Texas, September S--The
Tribune this evening prints the article in
The Post today regarding Traffic Manager
Dodge OF the Cotton Belt and calls atten-
ton to some facts that leave the impress
sion that Mr.. Dodge had hand In having
the Lone Star line put up rates.
The Tribune says: mr.. Dodge was
here Tuesday with Mr.. Barnhart, and the
two had consultation with tho Mallory
people. Later Mr.. Dodge called upon Mr..
Ripley. Then Ripley issued the tariff,
which is now In effect Tuesday night
Mcssrs. Ripley and Dodge were together
until late hour.
or course, 1t will be denied that MIR.
Dodge had anything to do with the pro-
mitigation OF the new Lone Star tariff, but
It does seem strange that Mr.. Dodge
should notify other lines that the Cotton
Belt Is going, on certain date, to cut
rates to New England milling points to a
figure which the steamship lines can not
meet that while ostensbly engaged in q
mission to track down the author OF this
report, he has n conference with two OF
the parties to the great triangular steam
ship fight: that Immediately after this
conference one of the lines boosts its rates
that after leaving here Mr.. Dodge goes to
of that reporD and with other railroad Of
iicials asks the Morgan line people to fix
date for restoring rates to tho East

AN AMENDMENT IS DEsmED.

Commission VIII Consider a PrOp0-
sition 10 Change Compress Rules.
Austin, Texas. September 5.--TNffio
Manager Bein appeared before the rail
road commission again today asking relief
for the Houston and Texas Central from
the conditions arising at certain points
south OF Bryan, owing to the commissions
compress regulations. and in answer to
his petition, notice was issued of hear
ing for September l6, at which the ques-
ton of amending the new cotton tariff
will be considered.
The desire Is to overcome the disad-
yantages to which shippers OF cotton from
certain stations have been subjected by
the rule requiring railroad companies to
assume the cost Of COMPRISING cotton out
Of the rates that are not less than 35
cents per 100 pounds. applying between
stations subject TO the rates prescribed
in section l Of the tariff. II will be pro-
posed TO modify the tariff SO as to make
As cents the minimum rate out OF which
COMPRISING shall be paid or to adopt such
other regulations as may appear neces-
sary to remove the difficulties that now
exist. This affects the weimar q well as
the Navasota situation.
Pending the above hearing, the Houston
and Texas Central has been grated au@
thority TO concentrate at Brennan cotton
from Wellborn. Navasota and other points
similarly affected by the new regulations
