Among shippers there is a good deal OF
opposition ~springing up against the new
order which was promulgated by the Joint
Trafhc Association and which went into eff
feet under their ruling Jan. Ia which. If put
in operation, will materially curtail the
privilege of carload rates. AS yet but few
roads. If more than one. have put il in
force. Doubtless the old practice has been
much abused and the roads nave just rea-
son for taking some action regarding The
matter, but with the shippers there is a
feeling that the new order would bear con-
siderable modification. The practice has be-
come general for shippers, in order to Sc
cure the benefits OF carload rates, to jointly
fill a car and consign ii to one party, in or
cations rules that the freight shall De de-
shipper, consigned to one conslgnee and
destination. The clause by one shipper
has been disregarded in practice. TIT new
order provides that the conSignee or his
representative shall give a receipt for a full
car before any goods can be secured. and
il is believed that were the order enforced
permanently by all the roads it would mean
the total extinction of the present practice
of Jointly filling a car.
