closing of the stores became very inter

the action of Sol Bernhard and few
others in breaking their word by open
ing up, other merchants also kept open
The clerks then put out circulars asking
all laboring men to patronize only those
stores that close at six, and by doing 30

FREIGHT RATES TO THE SOUTH
To be Tested by New York Merchants
Association.

New York, November .1.-Speaking Of
the new official freight classification
issued by the southern classification
committee, J.. NJ. Langley, of the New
York Merchants Association, says:
1--WE have made a careful examina-
ton of this new schedule and cannot
find that it contains any material on
cessions to shippers. Unfortunately
the members of the southern classif-
cation committee have ignored the
protest filed by the shippers some time
ago.
In making up this new schedule,
which the southern committee are now
giving to the public, they have adher-
ed ito the railroad changes made last
winter, with the exception of a few
mirror alterations.
Owing to this unsatisfactory con-
ton of the whole matter in the south
we a decided some time ago to take
the entire subject before the inter
state commission in an &C
ton to be brought against some one
of the roads in the south using this
higher, and, therefore, we claimed, dis
criminative schedule. We laid the
whole matter before our counsel, who
advised us that We had a good u
of action. We delayed action pending
the making up of this new schedule.
Now that the new schedule is found
not to have granted concessions to
shippers, we will proceed along the line
originally laid down."

On tho Proposition Contained In the
British-German Agreement.

Washington, November 1.-The align
ment of the powers on the British-Ger-
man agreement Is now complete.
Aside from Italy and Austria, whose
adherence to h agreement was ex-
pected, owing to their political rela-
tfons with Germany, Japan is the only
one Of the powers which has given I'm
conditional consent to the agreement.
AS the matter now stands. five Of the
powers are united on all the terms of
the agreement, viz: Great Britain,
Germany, Italy, Austria and Japan;
three of the powers-the United States
France and R~ussia-accept the clauses
relating to the open door and the ter
ritorial integrity of China. but with
hold action on the third clause, relat-
ing to future procedure in case any
power seizes territory. In regard TO
the third clause, Russia referred the
two contracting parties to the Russian
circular of April 25th. saying that she
would modify her attitude according 10
circumstances.
The chief effect of the change has
been to bring five Of the powers to an
agreement to respect the pen door
and the integrity of China, and to con
suit among themselves as to a future
course in case any Of the other powers
sought to take Chinese territory. These
'other powers" as the negotiations
have now been shaped, are the United
States, France and Russia AS to the
United States there is of course no pos
sibility of an Initiative in taking terri
tory SO hat the terms Of the third
clause would apply to France and Rus
