some other matters of interest to

They are influential members of

important missions of this kind.
1t is to be hoped that they will
make satisfactory arrangements

The Wool Trade.

Boston, Mass. June 4, 1902
Although the week under review
has been broken by holiday,
there has been fair average bust
ness in progress. Representatives
of both the larger and smaller
mills have been testing the mar
ket, in anticipation of the OPEN
ing of lightweight goods, and in
a quiet way they have taken some
old and new woods. AS a rule
they have not succeeded in buy
ing woods any cheaper than when
they were last in the market, but
on the other hand, owners of wool
find it impossible to obtain high
er prices, and where they have
insisted on an advance they have
effectually prevented any trade.
The course of the market in the
near future depends to great
extent on the opening of the light
weight season in the fabric mar
ket, and pending this event the
trade are not disposed to force
their stock on consumers. New
wool in the interior continue to
be taken at high rates as soon as
they are offered.
The receipts of wool in Boston
this week amounted to 25,059
bales, against IA, 1870 bales last
week, and 1882 bales a year
ago.
The total receipts since Janu-
airy have been 1885, bal es
domestic and 72,245 foreign,
against 176, 800 domestic and TO-
1S1 bales foreign for the corre-
spending period of 1901. This is
an increase of 81 ,457 bales domes-
tic and an increase of 1904 bales
foreign.
Shipments of wool for the week
ending June 2 are as follows;
Tuesday, May 81, 547,8S5; We'd
nesday, May 2s, 809,55O; Thurs
day, 30, 1872, 1856; Saturday, May
81, 1862, 1858; Monday, June 2,
1884, APO; total 4, 246, sos.
This shows decrease of 433,S2
pounds over the shipments of
4,GS0,525 pounds for the previous
! week. Since January the total
shipments amount to 40S,254,-
$40.
The sales Of the week in Boston
amounted to 2,517, 900 pounds
domestic and 100000 pounds
foreign, making a total of 3,177,-
600 pounds, against a total of A.
100000 for the previous week,
and a total of 3,7S5,OOO for the
corresponding week last year.
The sales since January / amount
to 1886, 900 pounds against o.
912,900 pounds for the corre-
spending time last year.-Report-

At its session Monday the SUI.
preme court of the United States

that has been dragging along fol
years, which places the stock
raisers of the West at the mercy
of the railroads and gives them
no redress for extortion practiced
at the Union stock yards, Chica.

The suit was brought against
the Chicago, Burlington and Quin.
cy road by the interstate com.
merce commission to stop q
charge of 81 a car in excess of
regular traffic levied on every
raiser and shipper of live stock in
the territory west of the Missis.
sippi river and between Canada
and the gulf.
The railroads entering Chicago
originally owned the stock yards,
which was their union depot fol
live stock, but as that property
became enormously lucrative,
they sold the stock yards to pri.
vate individuals. AS the loading
and unloading were practically
automatic, it was the best-paying
traffic which the roads enjoyed.
After the sale, the purchasers
imposed a charge against the
roads of So car for the use OF
the tracks. The roads, then act.
ing on that pretext, imposed ar
additional charge of 50 per cal
against all stock that came from
points west of the Mississippi
but only 81 per car from points
east of the Mississippi.
INTERSTATE COMMISSION ovERRULEI
The cattle men brought the
case before the interstate com.
merce commission, which heard
the case twice, the second time
on the application of the rail
roads, and that the facts were az
follows:
81. That the true rate EN-.
braced an ample charge for deliv'
ering stock into the stock yards
which fully compensated the
roads for that service.
~. That the new charge was
unreasonable in any view, as il
was double what would have beer
reasonable under the circum
stances.
so. That the railroads owned
the Union stock yards and ther
sold their depot, they could not
lawfully impose an additional
charge for the use of part Of
that depot.
"a. That under any circum
stances to charge Western live
stock twice as much as was
charged Eastern live stock fol
precisely similar services was
wrong.
rs That in view of the fact,
the railroads were charging the
Western farmers twice for the
same services and, therefore, or.
dered the roads to remove the
second double charge of 50 pei
car"
This decision of the supreme
court of the United States re.
verses and, in effect, holds that
there is no remedy against the
extortion of railroads.
