ELKINS ACT STANDS IN THE WAY OF
LOWER RATES FOR BEET SUGAR MEN

That being the case, the sugar traffic is
ABOUT to be put on the basis of the rates
which the short rail lines to the seabOard
from the Mississippi valley can make.
There is one difficulty in the way of
the long rail haul lines making their
tariffs conform to those of the gulf port
lines, ana that is they may be compelled
to make a corresponding decrease in
rates to intermediate points. Lower rates
would upset some of the long established
schedules and seriously interfere with
enterprises which at the coast handle
the raw material and prepare it for con-
sumption There is not much likelihood
Of there being a settlement of the diff
Guilty at once. The publication of indi-
VIdual tariffs and gradual conformity of
all lines to the conditions confronting
them IS said to be the more likely method
of settlement

I'VE have been given to understand that

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1903-05-16

.First-Because The Southern Pacific
had helped the Union Pacific by trans

Secoud-That it was feared that piece
work DreJudicial to the men, was TO be
extended in the boiler shops
In response to the first, the committee
was assured by President Hartman in a
conference in his office in San Francisco
that shortly after the Union Pacific
strike he had issued an order that the
southern Pacific officers were TO take
no steps to assist the Union Pacific in
any manner whatsoever. This order has

lsneelal 10 - HeraldN

Chicago, May 1.-THE operation Of the
ElAIlns act has been found TO be one Of
the important elements in the problem Of
eQuanZlng the sugar rates on import
traffic and the rates from fields where
the sugar beets are raised TO the markets
LOT the refined product. The fact that
the Elk1ns act requires that the import
tariffs be published has not made the
settlement of the rate question easier. 1t
developed today that the publication of
tariffs would give to the routes having
the long water haul and the short rail
maui an advantage in the cost of trans
portatiOn that the long rail haul lines
would not have.
There is a disposition TO refuse to rec
OgniZe the right of the long rail routes
to a differential, even if this was claimed
or could be claimed legally and eQuitabIy.

PLENTY IN THE MARKET.
Vegetable and Fruit supply Shows
no Effects of Freeze.


That the recent cold snap did not
affect the more fully developed market
crops of this section was evidenced
yesterday by the large supply of truck
on sale in the market. The quality
and quantity was equally as good as
that of the last few weeks, and none of
the produce showed the least blight
Retailers said that the truck had not
been damaged and that the cold would
tend to further improve the growth of
vegetables. Cabbage, turnips, beets,
green onions, and all other articles of
produce on the market at this season
of the year, was to be had in any
quantity desired, and at the custom
airy prices.
The fruit supply was also abundant,
bananas, oranges and apples, being in
good demand. Other produce such as
red onions, peas, beans, ETC., had the
usual sale. All the dealers both in
and outside the market did a good
business.
The meat market remained the same
as before. Any and all articles of
meat were to be had, and at the prices
prevailing for the past several months.
Butchers complained of dull times,
though they appeared to be doing a
good business.

GEORGIA MATERIAL
WILL BE USED IN CONSTRUCTION
OF NEW CITY HALL,
THAT IS THE PLAN NOW.
THE INTERIOR TO BE OF GEORGIA
MARBLE.

The Exterior of the Building of Ma

That VIII Cost About S25O,OOO,
chat Will Fill the City's Wants
For a Hundred Years, and That,
with the Exception of the Steel,
Will Be Constructed of Produce
tions of the State, Is the Idea of
Chairman of Council Dixon, Who
Is Member of the Special COM
mittee.
1t is the opinion of Chairman of
Council James NJ. Dixon, who is a
member of the special committee of
Council that will secure plans for the
erecting of a modern city hail. that
the new building should be constructed
of Georgia material except, of course
the steel.
Mr.. Dixon is of the opinion that a
handsome structure, to cost in the
neighborhood of $3.50, 900, should be
erected. Such a building would last
the city for a hundred years and would
be an ornament that is badly needed
The chairman of Council favors using
Georgia marble on the interior and
Georgia granite for the outside, the
structure to be as near fireproof as is
possible.
The committee has not yet held a
meeting, but it will be called together
by Mayor Myers, who is chairman.
some day this week. Architects will
be invited to submit plans after the
committee has discussed the matter
fully. 1t is expected that many plans
will be submitted for its consideration.
Mr.. Dixon favors a building four
stories from Bay street, which would
make it six stories high. 1t will be
wider and deeper and taller than the
City Exchange. A member of the COM
mittee said yesterday that he will ad-
vocate extending the new building on
all four sides.
A suggestion had been made that
the new city hall contain an audito-
rum, but the members of the commit
tee, and members of Council, do not
appear to be in favor of this. There
will be no room for an auditorium in
the new building. There will be COM
mittee rooms and private offices, and
an elevator, but no auditorium. 1t is
probable, too, that a handsome clock
with the real thing in the shape of
illuminated dial, will adorn the spire
of the city hall. 1t appears to be the
unanimous opinion, or as near so as is
possible, that Savannah is badly in
need of new city hall and that when
one is built it should be something
handsome, and something that will
last as long as the present building
has.
The present plan is to have the build
ing finished in time for the next ad-
mfnistration to occupy it, and there
will be no delay in getting down to
work. The city officers will necessa-
rily be Inconvenience while the work
is being done, but without exception
they are willing to suffer this incon-
venience for a new home. Mr.. Dixon
said yesterday that the city will find
no difficulty in renting a suitable
building during the time the city hall
is being put up. The matter of
temporary location will be considered
after plans have been agreed upon, al
though the members of the committee
already have several suitable places
in view.

FOR EX-SLAVES CONGRESS.
An Agency Said to BE in Operation
in Savannah.

in Savannah.
An Office of the Ex-Slaves' Congress
has been established near this city for
the purpose of securing members to
the movement which is now general
throughout the South. This informa-
ton was given by gentleman who
says he has two aged negroes in his
employ who have become members of
the Congress. He says the local office
of the agency is near Sandhy Station
between here and Isle of Hope, and
that two men are in charge of the
work and securing members and col
lecting money from aged negroes of
this city and section.
The two negroes in his employ, he
says, wear badges they secured from
the agency, having paid $1.50 each for
them. They also pay 10 cents monthly
into the Congress as a membership fee,
ard are assured that the government
will shortly grant them a pension
through the efforts of the Congress.
The better class of negroes are
against the movement, and are Wig
orously opposing the Congress on the
grounds that it's object is one of gain
only to the promoters, and that the
old slaves will never be granted PEN
sions, nor do the promoters ever in
tend to make an effort in that direc-
ton as they know it would be useless.
The agents, it is said, are working
quietly and only approach those whom
they believe can be inveigled into the
scheme. 1t has been reported some
time that agents were working in Sa-
vannah, but so quietly have they con-
