cent Advances.

Washington. Feb. 2s.-The hearing in
the matter of the recent advances IN
freight rates on grain, packing house
products. iron and other commodities on
the trunk lines was concluded YESTERDAY.

wanna, Controller Buckley and General
Traffic Manager Wight of the Baltimore
& Ohio, Freight Traffic Manager Powell
of the Southern. General Freight Agent
knight of the Wabash, Traffic Manager
Brownell Of the Erie and e. H. Janyier,
counsel for the Lehigh Valley, were wit
nesses.
They contended that the increases were
based on commercial and traffic conditions
but admitted that the earnings of their
systems were ample. Mr. Buckley said
that the Baltimore & Ohio was contem-
plating an advance of salaries of men
getting $500 a, month more. The in
crease of salaries of men getting 5000 and
under. which went into effect Jan. l. he
said. would increase expenses at the end
of the fiscal year IS 1000. 600. The extent
of the increase now in contemplation was
not settled, and added that despite the
large increases in wages the earnings of
the road would be greater than before be-
cause of increased traffic.
When he was asked about coal. Buckley
said that coal prices, which have been
steadily increasing. would go higher
