COMMERCE COMMISSION
Announces Its Decision in Philips, Baile Y
 & Go. Case Against the L. 6 N.

Washington, Novmber 1.-The interstate commerce commission today in an opinion by Commissioner Clements announced its decision in the case of Philips, Bailey Co. against the Louisville and Nashville Rail- way company and others. The case relates to the transportation of sugar and moiasses from New Orleans to Nashville and Louis- ville and complainant alleged that higher rates for the shorter dista9ee to Nashville than for the longer distance to Louisville were unlawful The carr.ers contended that the circumstances and conditions were made dissimilar by water competition at Louisville. There was water competition al NaslYille, but 1t was not so strong as at Louisville. The commission held, citing decisions of the United States supreme court, that the mere fact of competition no matter what its character or extent does not necessarily relieve carriers from the restraints of the third and fourth sec tions of the act that the burden Is upon the carrier in all cases where a departure rom rule of law Is proved to show clearly that such departure is justified and that whether the circumstances and condi- tons or carriage have been substantially similar or otherwise, are questions of fact depending on the matters proved in each case. The decision is that the evidence does not show such a substantial dssimilarity Of circumstances and conditions as will authorize higher rates to Nashville than to Louisville. An order forbidding exaction Of ti-e higher rate to Nashville was directed to issue.

CAMP AT FLORENCE.
Some of the Troops Will Be Located
 There This Winter.

Florence, November 4.-(Special)-Flor- ence has been selected as a location for United States troops during the winter.

No date has been set for their arrival, and 1t Is not known what troops nor how many will be sent here. It is thought thtat not less than five regiments will be quartered here dur ing the winter. Colonel J. R. Greenleaf, spectQr-general of camp sites, was in this city several weeks ago. and was very ia vorably impressed with the advantages of- fered by Florence.
 The camp will be located about a mile from the city, near the old Baptist uni- vSrsity building, and close to the city p1M6.ng statl5n. The Florence water works has a capacity of three million gal Ions per day. and this is thought to have largely influenced the decision. The town was selected in spite of petition sent to the war department by number of prom inent people of the town asking that they be not sent. The site selected is a splendid one and large enough to accommodate sev- eral thousand troops
