CANNON FALLS RATES UNJUST
Commerce Commission Passes or
Grain Tariffs.

Washington, April s. - Chairman
Knapp of the interstate commerce
commission yesterday announced the
decision of the commission in the
case of the Cannon Falls Farmers FL
evator company against the Chicago
Great Western Railway company and
the Chicago Milwaukee & ST. Paul
Railway company. The opinion holds
that under present rate conditions the
Cannon Falls shipper is subjected to
the following disadvantages:
The combination of rates on rye
and other coarse grains from Cannon
Falls, from st. Paul and Minneapolis
to Chicago is half cent less than the
straight rate from Cannon Falls to
Chicago. This the commission holds
is without justification. The competi-
tive advantage to which the Cannon
Falls dealer is entitled is neutraliZed
to an extent by manipulation of billing
at Minneapolis, whereby Cannon
Falls grain sold in Minneapolis can be
reconsigned to Duluth. receiving a less
total charge than from Cannon Falls
to Duluth The rate on barley and
other coarse grains from Cannon Falls
to Louisville or East ST. Louis, the
commission holds, is wrongfully higher
| than the rate on wheat between the
same points.

A Danger Of Our Colonial System

Use OF trouble between Japan and
America. He lately declared al
see probability of trouble with the
japanese within the next fifteen years,

Philippines; OF that there is no doubt
at Washington or other capitals. The
Philippines would be valuable to the
japanese, and lie right at their door.

The Congressman afterwards, be it
noted however, somewhat revised his
opinion, and in another interview
after stating that he had been mis-.
quoted, authorizes the following:
1T was asserted that the Japanese
were after the Philippine islands, and

how likely clash of interests may

Grand Jury Tackles Beef Trust.

1t seems that Notwithstanding Com
missioner Garfield could find no "cause
for action" against the beef trust, even
after the U. S. Supreme Court had,
through Justice Holmes. rendered the
opinion that the packers had con-
spired in restraint OF trade and made
themselves liable to the terms OF the
Sherman anti trust law, his white.
washed report has had indeed very lit
tie TO do with popular sentiment on the
matter or the courts. A special grand
jury was empanneled in Chicago,
Wednesday, which was charged by
Judge Humphrey, to "present no one
from envy, hatred or malice" nor TO
leave any one unpresented for "fear,
favor, affection, reward, or hope Of
reward" Then he called attention
particularly to the statute which pro-
hibits and fixes penalty for combina-
tions Gin restraint Of trade" in the
interstate commerce law. Public men
in Washington, report says, are as.
founded at the conclusion the Com.
missioner OF Corporations reached and
are inclined to believe the statement
of an agent OF the trust that two sets
of books are kept by Armour & Co.,
and probably other packing houses, so
so as to be ready at any time for inves-
tigation of their business, on either
real or fictitious figures. Others claim
that lie was surely hypnotized by the
superior mind that seems to combine
and blend all circumstances for the
general good.
