Nelasco, Texas. August S.-The Brazos
last night rose very little. In fact hardly

sertion in view Of the heavy rises reported

on the gulf IS now lower than for many
years Mr.. j. =. Bryan lives directly on
or than lie has seen it for years, hence the
refusal of the Brazos to overflow the

that some benefits will accrue from the
securing the Brazos river channel Will get

left and the channel over the bar proper

THE RATES ON COTTON
STUFF TAKEN TO LIVERPOOL FOR
LESS THAN TO NEW YORK.
New ENGLAND Manufacturers Are Talking
OF Appealing to the Interstate
Commission.

New York. August 3.--The subject Of rail
rates to New England points, coastwise
rates and export freight rates Is beiiig
considered by a special committee of the
cotton exchange. For some time past mem
bers have declared that coastwise and
transatlantic lines discriminate against New
York, aud also against New England mills,
by giving as low, or lower, rates on cot
ton exported from Southern ports via New
York to Liverpool than are required on
shipments to this port In other words,
cotton is landed in Liverpool for less than
1t can be shipped via New York to New
england mills, aud the fact that the Bos.
ton and Maine and the New York, New
Haven and Hartford refuse to participate
in through rates with connecting railroads
or their steamer lines Is considered one or
the factorG that help materially TO DrlhS
about such Il condition.
1t was declared today by prominent
member OF the exchange that recently n
certain grade OF cotton was landed In Liv-
erpool from gulf points Mt cost OF 81
cents while the cost OF the same grade de-
llvcred at New England points was 50
cents.
Inquiry at the Offices of the New York,
New Haven and Hartford showed that the
road does not, as matter OF fact, par
Southern lines, but has tariff OF local
rates on cotton after It reaches its lines.
No explanation. however, could be OBJ
talped as to why through rates we're not
giSen.
< prominent member of the New York
cotton exchange said that firms here had
had considerable trouble over railroads. He
thought, however, that the real issue there
was between the milla and the railroads
aud that the present rate situation was
nm outcome Of that trouble. There had
been considerable complaint. he said, by
TIE roads that the mills did not unload
cars promptly and that they really caused
long delays n the railroads In this way,
ne roads some time ago. he said. decided
to charge - cents per car a day after a
certain period II they were not unloaded
Fall River. Mass, August 1.-The cotton
brokers have been Joined by the cotton
manufacturers of New England in the i'm
pending war with the Boston and Maine
and the New York, New Haven and Hart
ford railroads over the discontinuance of
the through freight tariffs on all-rai cot
ton from Southern points to New England
mills. The treasurer Of one of the largest
mills said today: The mill interests have
called n meeting to take united action on
the matter, and will lay their grievance
before the interstate commerce commission
We do not believe the roads have any
right to deprive us OF the transportation
facilities that we have so long patronized."
