Agents Wanted,
Arthur e. Bauman.

The Saddest event we have had
to record in long time is the death
of Arthur g Bauman, the seven
te8n-year old son of Mr. and Mrs
j. L. Bauman. He died Monday
morning at IL o'clock and was
buried the next day at 10 A. NJ.
from the Episcopal Church.
Young Bauman was i'll wish
typhoid fever and was confined to
his bed only ten days, Nhen the
angel Of death called for him and
carried him off to celestial cline,
leaving his relatives and friends
behind on earth to suffer his loss.
Arthur was quiet and well be-
haved boy, a pride and comfort
to his devoted parents, brothers
and sisters, and a popular boy
with his associates wherever he
went. The will of the Lord, is
the law On this earth, but we can
not cease grieving over the loss of
a young man whose conduct was
at all times so becoming and man
ly.
The Iberian and the people of
New Iberia with one voice extend
their deepest and most heartfelt
sympathy to the grief stricken
family, who have another son Sc
riously i'll With the same malady
in Beaumont, where he was taken
a few days ago for change.
His mother, and his brother
Willie are with little Louis, the
afflicted boy in Beaumont.

Depot Bridge & Terminal Company, which
owns valuable terminals and hundreds of
acres of land on either side of the Mis-

lars in improving their terminals and in
purchasing river land, which it is said, is to

officials of Many Railways Have Been
Summoned Before the Interstate
Commerce Commission.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 6.-The increases in
freight rates which are shortly to be APP
piled on the roads running from the Missis-
sippi river and points beyond to the East
and South, will be investigated by the
Interstate-commerce Commission, which
has fixed Dec. Is. next, as the date for a
hearing to be held at the offices of the
commission in this city. The commission
has issued an order requesting the at
tendance at that time of the chief traffic
officials or other representatives, qualified
to give information of the following roads:
The Michigan Central, the Lake Shore &
Michigan Southern. the Erie, the Baltimore
& Ohio, the Pennsylvania Company, the
Cleveland. Cincinnati Chicago & ST. Louis,
the Wabash, the Baltimore & Ohio South
western, the New York Central q Hudson
River, the Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern, the Lehigh Valley, the Southern, the
Norfolk az Western, and the Chesapeake q
Ohio. The commission has adopted the fol-
lowing order:
Whereas, 1t appears from schedules on
file with the commission that rates upon
grain and grain products, dressed meats
and provisions from the Mississippi river
to New York and points governed by the
New York rates, are to be materially ad-
vanced in the near future, and
Whereas, 1t appears probable that other
terially increase the general cost OF trans
portation; therefore 1T is
Ordered that proceeding OF inquiry and
investigation be instituted as to the occa-
sion for and propriety of such advances.
Following similar action by the Mich
igan Central. the Chicago, Indianapolis
Louisville Railway has filed with the com
mission the required advance notice of an
increase Of cents to be imposed on dressed
meats shipped from Chicago to New York.
making this rate 45 cents per 100 pounds,
and abOlishing the export rate of 70 cents
on provisions, making fiat rate OF 81
cents on provisions.
The commission also has been given Off
cial notice that proportional rates in wheat
and flour from Kansas City, st. Joseph,
Atchison, Leavenworth and other lower
Missouri river points, which rates apply
on business from points beyond, have been
advanced cents to Chicago. The local
rates from those points to Chicago have
not been increased on wheat and flour, but
on other grain and grain products an in
crease of i cent per 100 pounds is to be APP
piled. From Ohio river points, such as
Cincinnati, Louisville, Evansville, New
Albany and Cairo, to Charleston, Atlanta,
brunswick and the South Atlantic coast
generally an increase is to be made of 4
cents on grain and -four when shipped in
sacks, and of cents barrel or 3h cents
per 100 pounds when shipped in barrels.
These rates which are to be applied on
the Louisville & Nashville Illinois Central
and Southern Railroads carry correspond
ing increases from Ohio river points to
Nashville.
