PIG IRON RATES.

Pig iron rates and storage charges
were the chief topics discussed ut the
meeting OF the Central Freight Associa-
ton. The decentralization in these mat
tiers has extended over quite n period.
but II was thought wen TO see what can
be done by individual effort before TAX
ing united action. With reference to
storage charges at elevators. the asso-
ciation finds itself handicapped by the
ruling of the interstate commerce COM
mission. that where elevator charges are
made they must be published on the
tariff. It is hoped. that the posting OF
charges at each elevator storage ware
house will be held to comply with this
requirement. as otherwise a very long
list will be needed. Ii was decided that
apples will be taken in central freight
territory ut $50 pounds Il barrel. and
lime in bulk. where the actual weight
cannot be determined, at 20 pounds n
barrel. The rule of the association makes
1t so pounds n barrels. but this Is In con-
Iravention OF the Ohio state law, which
fixes II at 10 pounds.
