tests OF shippers against the adoption OF a uni

Mississippi to the Atlantic seahoard and south 10
the Ohio and Potomac rivers-and have made such
notifications that II seems probable there will be
no further objection 20 It's use This Is regarded
as big victory for shippers
For the last few months shippers particularly IN
the Middle West, have been up In arms against
the new form OF shipping receipt. The principal
objection was % the signature feature. The pro
posed new form required the shipper as well as
'he agent OF the carrier to sign the receipt This
feature. the shippers declared made the document
special contract. and bound the shipper TO abide
by the carriers conditions. which. they said were
entirely In favor OF the railroads and practically
relieved the carriers from liability

EFFECT ON THE SCHOOLS.
Many Haze Reached Stage Beyond
Danger of Delay.

The question of how the schools in course OF
erection will be affected by the building trades
lockout and strikes is making those interested
in an increase in their seating uneasy. At tha
headquarters of the Building Trades Employers
Association il was stated that every effort will
be made to prevent delay in school work.
Samuel s. Donnelly. chairman of the build
ing committee of the Board Of Education, said
last evening that while the lockout might de-
lay some of the schools If it continued, many
of them had reached a stage where lOckOuts
or strikes could not affect them. Among the
schools which cannot be affected are the De
Witt Clinton High School, Tenth-ave.. be-
tween Fifty-eighth and Fifty-ninth SITS. Man
