DOMESTIC TRADE SUFFERS.
Rates on Imports Discriminate Against
Home Industries.

Home Industries.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 6.-Repre-
SentatiVes of the Pittsburg Plate Glass
company testified before the interstate
commerce commission today in substan-
tiation of the charges that the railroads
are discriminating against American man
ufacturerS in their import and domestic
freight tariffs. John Pitcairn. president
j. M. Belleville, general freight agent of
and w. w. Heroy, New York agent of
the company, submitted comparative
statements, showing among other things
that plate glass can be transported from
Antwerp, Belgium, to Minneapolis, Mimi,
Pittsburg to Minneapolis. The tariffs to
other inland cities also showed similar
wide variations in import and domestic
rates in favor of the former.
Mr.. BelleVille said that within the past
four years it has been possible to ship
plate glass of any size in carload lots
from Antwerp to Chicago for 1899 cents
rate from Philadelphia to Chicago is 81
cents; and from Antwerp to East ST.
Louis for 1911 cents per 100 pounds.
against domestic rate of 81 cents from
Philadelphia to East ST. Louis. A state
ment was submitted showing in detail
united inches in dimension from Ant
werp to various cities and the rates to
the same cities on domestic shipments
showing foreign rates to be from 4 to 8
cents lower than domestic rates.
The witnesses testified that nothing was
known positively as to the ocean proper
ton of the rates on plate glass, but it
per 100 pounds. From this figure they
made deductions to show what they be-
lieved the domestic rate should be. The
hearing was then closed.
