THE EMI-WEEKlY REPUBLIC.

The Semi Weekly Republic has so many advantages as news gatherer that no other paper can claim to be it's equal. The whole news is covered thoroughly. The special features and illustrations are always the best. More noted writers contribute to its columns than to any other paper of it's class. It is published especially to meet the wants of that large class of readers who have not the opportunity or cannot afford to read daily paper.
 The.telegraphic and cable service of The Republic has never been equaled in the his- tory of Journalism in this or any othe T country.
 The Sem-Weekly Republic has larger circulation now than any other news week ly or semi-weekly.

every case mentioned was unfounded.
In view OF the enormous volume nj traf-
fc now taxing the carrying capacity OF all
the roads the gentlemen present at the
conference were inclined to feel consider
able apprehension as to the future. when
this volume might diminish. or when the
formidable lake navigation competition
would set m. or other . conditions arisc
which ordinarily might d.mort,ize freight
conditions. One main point Of apprehen-
sion WIS the difference. between the rates
on grains and other products for export
and those for domestic use. a material diff
ference which was acknowledged but us
TO the necessity of which the railroad OFF,
Gals differed in their views. No definite
action on this line was taken. however.
The antitrust law. taking away the legal
sanction of any concerted effort among the
roads to maintain rates ana ut the same
time requiring the observance OF published
rates. WAS discussed and efforts to over
come this obstacle were informally men,
toned. The general sentiment as to the
results of the conference Is hat each road
will make a consistent effort to act fairly
with the others and with respective ship
pers. The officials present pledged them
selves not to iaviate from their published
tariffs ard not to discriminate between the
large and small shippers.
AT the meeting Tomorrow definite action
may be taken looking TO insuring As far as
possible against possible future con-
tingencieS which might precipitate demor-
