turned yesterday from Austin, where he
consulted the commission, report OF

SONS answer There has been brewing
for some time trouble over the rate charged
by the Bay Shore on cotton from the In
terror to Galveston, and with that went a
complaint from the latter road that certain
connections would net participate in issu-
ing through bills via the Bay Shore when
such routing was the shippers design. On
these shipments the Bay Shore applied the
differential. while the Santa re insisted
that it should be S cents, Sontending that
so far as the la Porte road was supposed
to know, the shipment had originated at
Houston and took the local rate. The mat
ter was laid before the commission simply
for information, which was to tie effect
that the La Porte people made the correct
charge.

lead is In the bank OF sandy creek. dry

OF the quartz is exposed TO view. Tho
surrounding country is high, rolling post
