Million Bushels Ahead.

New Orleans exports of wheat and
corn in the fiscal year ended June 30,
1903, were 32.257 1873 bushels, as COM
pared with 31.15O.OSs for New York.
The loss by New York is shared by
Boston, Philadelphia. Baltimore, and
other Atlantic seaboard points.
New York. Philadelphia and Balti-
more grain shippers are making fran
tic efforts to regain their lost ground
and insist that the railroads make u
sufficient reduction in the rates to
their ports to stop the diversion of
the business TO the gulf. In conse-
quence of these appeals the trunk
lines nave requested the central, west
ern and gulf roads to meet with them
in New York Oct. s to discuss the
whole subject and adopt and put into
effect methods to secure uniform
and stable basis of export rates.

WANT AGREEMENT OVER RATES

Eastern roads have become alarmed
over the diversion of export grain and
-four to New Orleans and Galveston.
Although the proposed advance in
eastbound flour and grain rates has
been abandoned for the present and
reduction of 1 per cent per bushel
made in the rate on grain from Buff
falO to New York. so as TO stimulate
business by the lake and rail lines.
the gulf roads continue to get the
lions share of the gulf business.
There has been endless friction for
years between the Atlantic coast and
gulf roads regarding rates to the At
lantic coast and the gulf. and to bring
about more stability in rates an
agreement was made about a year
ago whereby the gulf roads were TO
make a rate of about cents per 100
pounds lower from the Missouri river
than the rate to the Atlantic sea-
board. The gulf roads. however. when
they found their business did not
come up to expectations, violated the
agreement and published rates CON
siderably below those agreed upon.
Several times they promised to be
good, but the pledge always was vio-
lated, and, as the eastern lines re-
fused to make corresponding reduc-
tons, they gradually have been losing
most of their export grain business.
New York. which for years has been
the principal export grain point in
the country. has lost its prestige, be-
ing overtaken by New Orleans. Gal
weston is close upon its heels.
