Austin Texas December 13.-Railroad
Commissioner Mayhcld is of the opinion
that there is no necessity for the commits
zion to interfere in the matter of the
weighing OF cotton, as suggested by Major
c. B. Peck, manager of the Texas Car
Service association, TO prevent alleged un-
derpilIing. MI MayAcld has two reasons
for This opinion: First, he looks upon the
Car Service association as an unlawful m
stitution. and, second, he is satisfied that
the railroads can easily ascertain the true
weights of cotton if they are so disposed
Mr. Mayfolds idea is that a. rate upon
cotton by the bale instead Of by the hun
dred pounds would put stop to the prac-
tice of Undertaking..
