Erie and Lehigh Valley railroads TO the
complaint of William r. Hearst, OF New
York. against the anthracite coal-carrying
roads were filed yesterday with the Inter

swers deny that the interstate-commerce

unjust or diecriminative rates have been

and deny that the petitioner. or any other
persons or other Independent purchasers,
have sustained any injury by reason Of the
anthracite transportation tariff.

belief prevails with the traffic officials
that the needs of the. West are too great
to be taken care of for many months, no
matter how much equipment the roads
possess and 1t is doubtful whether the
manufacturing interests will be able to
furnish goods fast enough to meet the
growing demand within the next eighteen
months. This means that the roads will
continue to have an enormous westbound
tonnage indefinitely and that the eastbound
traffic will soon begin to overcome the
effects OF last years ciop failure. The
general situation is one that indicates
large earnings for at least twelve months
and it is conceded by the best authorities
that the roads are now doing the heaviest
business in their history. the activity not
being confined to any particular section.

A Educational System.

The ST. Louis Post-Dispatch says: "It
was rumored Friday that the Frisco sys-
tenn, which recently absorbed the Chicago
& Eastern Illinois. is about to gain an
Eastern line by forming 2 close alliance
with the Grand Trunk. The Frisco is now
building a line to Spofford, Tex, where
connection will be obtained with the Eagle
Pass line, penetrating Mexico. The con-
summation of this plan and of the alliance
with the Grand Trunk will make the Frisco
a trinational system"

In the proceedings of Wednesday nights
session of the State Conference OF Charity
Organizations the Journal reported me as
favorine raising the school age from four
teen TO sixteen years. | do not believe any
thing / said can be construed In this way.
The school age Is plenty high. L am more
in favor of reducing IL. under certain con-

is that all children. mentally and physical
ly sound. should pass the sixth grade OF the
nublic schools before being permitted to
