Austin. Tex, Nov. 12.-The Texas Rail-

railroads goes into effect on December 1.
and the various roads of the State are com
planning that 1t will reduce their earnings

There is some talk about talking the mat
ter into court, as the railroads contend that
the commissions proposed mileage basis Is
very unjust, and cuts the mileage of every
road in the State down below the present
computed mileage by n, least n third. The
commissions plan IS to take the postage
mileage as a basis from point to point. and
this has raised all the trouble. 1t is prob
able that an effort will be made to COM
promise the matter with the commission
between now and December l. and steps to
that end are expected TO be taken within
