New York, June 9.-The Herald says:
AT the meeting of the traffic managers
of the trunk lines yesterday it was
decided to restore westbound rates and
rail and lake freights to the tariff
basis that was in effect before the rate
cutting broke out The B. & Q. agreed
TO maintain rates. No reference was
made to the recent demand of that
company for a larger share OF the bus
mess. Commissioned Goddard says the
question of percentages did not come
up at the meeting. In fact, it is I'M
derstood that at the recent conference
between the B. & o. receivers and
Presidents Depew and Thompson at
tention was called to the fact that the
recent decision of the supreme court
precluded any arbitrary div sion of the
business. There is, therefore, no pres
ent intention of referring the question
10 the arbitrator for adjustment. The
matter of rates, however. is admitted
to be in rather uncertain condition
and no definite plan for regulating
them was determined upon at yester-
DAYS meeting.

they were Justify cheered and the Wall
street men were particularly noisy
when the visitors appeared in the gal
lery over the floor. The party was
then driven to the chamber of COM
merce, where luncheon was served.
The chamber of commerce function
was not exclusively social. 1t devel-
oped into an earnest discussion Of the
purpose of the foreigners visit and in
cidentally brought out fervent plea by
one of the Brazilian contingent for the
gold standard. Arthur S. H. Hitchings
of Rio Janeiro. after returning thanks
for the New Workers cordial greeting,
took up the money question and argued
the necessity for an internationa, uni
form system of money, favoring the
adoption as the unit of currency of a
gram of gold. Referring TO the silver
question, the Brazilian spoke enthusi-
astically of the promise of Secretary
Gage at the recent bankers convention
in Maryland to place the currency on
a sound money basis and to strenuously
approve the free coinage of silver.
I'm Brazil he continued, I'VE have
suffered much from the depreciation of
our currency. and what was said at the
bankers convention gratified me, be-
cause they put their shoulder To our
wheel"
In conclusion, he stated his position
to be lin favor of making silver sub
sidiary to gold, and limiting it TO each
of the countries in which it is coined,
without using it for foreign payments"
After luncheon was served. the guests
were driven to pier 1, North river,
where they boarded a steamboat for
trip around the river and harbor.

Referring to the statements of the labor

Some japanese are worked in the field

labor of beet raising at Watsonville is
done BY American laborers. OF course
the factory does not produce the beets
but contracts simply to pay 81 a ton for
the beets delivered. The labor is chiefly
performed by the farmers. who employ
men and boys to cultivate the fields.
