MILLERS CONSIDER

National Federation Assem-

an Admonitory Address

tatlon rates and the reciprocity treat
les negotiated by Commissioner Kas-
son are two subjects that the nillers
VIII consider at their three day session.
They allege that the railroads and
ocean lines discriminate against flour
in favor of wheat in making freight
rates.
In his address this afternoon Presi-
dent B. F. Eckhart, of Chicago, said:
The railroad transportation COM
panles until recently have failed to
show proper appreciation of the i'm
portance OF the milling industry in that
tney not only refuse to make fair and
reasonable freight rates for carrying
Inc product of the mills, but actually
discriminate against flour for export.
although any differential is unwarrant-
ed Dy the relative cost OF carrying the
commodities. The ocean steamship
INES are still discriminating against
nour for export in favor of wheat for
export thus giving the foreign miller
an undue advantage over the American
miller.
THE action of foreign countries in
closlng their doors against our flour.
either by high protective tariff or a
registration duty, should stimulate the
members of the federation as well as
the m1llers of the country to favor a
poIlcy or national reciprocity and to in
duce the government to negotiate new
treaties with France, Germany. Eng
land and other countries. 1t is the
conviction of the most thoughtful
MINDS OF this country that the pros
perlty of American agriculture, indus
tries and commerce depends in a large
degree upon the foreign markets.
Herbert Bradley, traffic manager of
the federation, pointed out the appar-
ent disregard on the part of the millers
toward the details of shipping their
product
''The flour bags are often placed in
cars" he said, that have discharged
a cargo of coal. By the time the bags
reach seaport and suffer several
transfers before they reach the retail
dealer they do not present a desirable
appearance"
A memorial from the British flour
buyers was read in which they declar-
ed that the American product was pref
cradle to that received from any other
foreign country and urged the Amer
lean m1llers to secure the adoption of
more satisfactory transportation rate
SO as to compete with the European
trade.

question. There is now q SURPLUS of
about Sc, 1000 that might be available
and with the present rate of taxation
the same would reach about $1,000 in
another year. A discussion followed.
All were agreed that if more building
has to be done, a bond issue should
be avoided if possible. An. Lewis
moved that the former tax levy be
kept up for next year. Atmisunder-
standing as to whether the Board
would still be free to use it's discretion
in the matter led to a controversy in
which several of those present took
part. The motion was finally adopted
without opposition, and the meeting

NATELS0N IS VICTlMlZED
Former Wilimsr Business Nan Is Made
the Victim Of shoplifters in St.

-Four young men on Saturday made
S. Natelson, tailor and dealer in
second hand goods, of 434 Minnesota
street, the victim of an old dodge in
shopliftipg. Three of the men are
white, and the fourth is colored.
While one of the number was pur-
chasing coat, and having it tried
on, another opened a parcel he was
carrying and spread it's contents on
the counter. Before Mr.. Natelson
had quite got his customer suited as
to the fit OF the coat, the parcel had
again been made up, and, this time it
was bigger than before, for it con-
tanned q pair of the best trousers in
the store, although the proprietor was
unaware of the fact until after the four
had left.
Natelson gave somewhat indis-
tinct description of the men to Officer
Maloney, and the sequel came yester-
day when the officer SAW four men
whom he thought about answered the
description walking down Seventh
street. On Informing Natelson of his
suspicious, the sto1ekeeper hurried
after the men and recognized them as
the men who had victimized him.
His excitement was too great to be
pressed, however, and he flushed
the quarry by shouting to the officer
to arrest them. The men took to their
heels and ran down the alley by the
side of the Ryan hotel, with the officer
in pursuit. A lively chase resulted in
the capture of the colored man by the
policeman, but as he did. not answer
the description of the man who was in
the store on Saturday, and was able
to give good account of himself, he
was allowed to go.-St. Paul Globe,
