Greensboro. N. c., June 15.-The as
ISOLATION of Wholesale Dealers, Millers
and Manufacturers of the Carolinas
held a special called meeting in the
Assembly Hall of the Benbow Hotel
in Greensboro last night, there being
forty-six members of the association
present from many of the important

Carolina.
The meeting was presided over by
j Il. =. Armfield of Fayetteville N
g., the president of the association.
MIR. j. w. Patterson. of Greensboro,
acting as secretary. The session was
largely in the nature of an executive
conference, the discussion being infor-
NAL and entirely harmonious. The i'm
mediate object of the conference was
the consideration of the question of
freight rates in force by the Asso-
c;ated Railways, which the dealers.
Wholesalers and manufacturers claim
are such as to give Virginia cities and
interests a great advantage over those
in South Carolina and North Carolina
The trouble is over the question of
differential rates between carload and
less than carload lots, by means of
which the Carolinas claim that they
are unjuStly Disseminated against in
the effort to build up wholesale bust
ness. They assert that the present
freight tariff causes them to have TO
pay as much freight for solid carload
shipments loaded and unloaded with
out expense to the railroads, as the
Virginia dealers pay for less than car
load lots, thereby giving to the latter
so much the advantage in distributing
products of their mills and stores to
retail dealers, as almost entirely to run
the Carolinas out of business, and GER
tainly to cut down profits to the mini
mum, except for limited local territory
and results in the encouragement of
capital to enlarge and multiply in
these States in this class of develop
ment and progress.
They are going to make an effort to
get the Associated Railways organiza-
ton to break this individious tariff, so
