The Mississippi Louisiana Retail
Lumber Dealers association and the
merchants and iobbers of Mississippi
have taken an important stey in seek
ing through the Railroad Commission
of Mississippi TO have charge estah-
lished to be known as "delayage"
Under the laws of Mississippi or
rather under the rulings Of the courts
Of that state, damages can be collect
ed by shippers who have suffered ma
terial boss through the delay in the
transportation of goods on the part
Of the railroads, But it is necessary
in all such cases to 80 to the courts
and engage in rather lengthy and cost
ly litigation
Under the charge of delayage which
it is sought to have established, it is
the spirit of the lumber association
and of the jobbers alike that damages
arising from delays be collected from
the railroads without litigation. just
rs demurrage is collected from the +.
shipper when he holds a car too long /.
on track after it has been placed /
there to be unloaded.

OF course it is primarily to the in

t can in the handling of freight traf'
ic of every kind and there is no doubt /
hat the roads put forth their best
