OPP of Quincy, made his first vista
ton at Christ church Sunday night.
1t had been hoped to have the con
firmation class ready for presen4a-
ton at this time, but the fact that
it was not fully prepared, will give
the people another opportunity to
hear the bishop. probably in the
spring. Bishop Taylor preached a
strong sermon. taking for his text
a part of the parable of the sower
and the seed. Last evening St. Mar
garet's Guild gave a reception in his
honor at the rectory.

Railroads Refuse TO Obey Missouri Railroad
Commissioners.

Supt. ". p. Trickett Of the Southwestern
Transportation Bureau reports to the
Trunk Line Association that he il unable
10 enforce the order of the Missouri State
Railroad Commissioners regarding the
discontinuance Of the 81 rcconsignment
charge on grain delivered nj elevators
This order was issued about three weeks
ago and was to take effect on Oct 20.
The Chicago Burlington and Quincy
Railroad, under the direction of Nice-Presi-
dent Darius Miller. complied with the order
at first, but. finding that all Of its COM
petitors were adhering TO the old method
gave notice two or three days ago that it,
too. would continue making the recon-
signment charge.
Representatives OF the Western rail-
roads and several large grain shippers
accuse the Missouri State Railroad Board
of playing politics" in issuing this objec-
tionablc order. and declare that they will
go to the courts In resistance of its enforce
ment Commissioner Trickett telegraphs
TO the Eastern representatives OF the
Western roads that he has got the consent
of all of the Western managers to meet
the Missouri Railroad Commissioners and
talk the matter over. Eastern roads are
Interested in this controversy because all
elevator charges have an effect on through
rates
The members of the Missouri State Rail
road Commission are T. j. Hennesv,
j p Rice and ". y. McCullv. The railroad
men regard the order to discontinue the
I, consignment charge of 81 as a heavy
fine on grain traffic
