Counting Freight Twice.

Mr. Hines then cited a specific case In
1872 he said. the Plant system was in
dependent system. Before 1903 it had been
acquired by the Atlantic Coast Line. There
is an immense quantity of lumber handled
by the Plant roads. which also passes over
the Atlantic Coast Line. If before the
combination of the two roads 100000 tons
OF lumber. at 81 ton, We're hauled by the
Plant system and transferred from the
tracks of the latter to the Atlantic Coast
Line these same 100000 tons of lumber
would appear in the reports of both roads.
Consequently the interstate commerce COM
mission, by its system of computing, would
count the same 100000 tons twice, and, gen
orally speaking, consider the freight
charges to be at the rate of 81 a ton
After the consolidation the same amount
of lumber carried over the same lines for
the same distance would appear only In
the report of the parent line-in this case
the Atlantic Coast Iine-would be counted
by the commission only once, and the
freight charge would appear as 81 a ton.
Consequently. Mr.. Hines said, it could
easily be seen that taking all the roads N
the country into consideration, and the fact
that the same ton of freight often passed
over TWO or more of them, being counted a
corresponding number of times, the tonabie
element thus introduced made the entire
estimates of the commission on this SUD-
ject entirely valueless and untrustworthy.
Neither was this variable quantity to De
estimated for each year.
For instance he said, in 1899 freight was
sent from shipping points to destination
by extremely circuitous routes. In 1903
the conditions of congestion and business
activity that prevailed made shipments Dy
the most direct routes imperative. Conse-
-quently, II could be seen that in the two
years in question. at least, the tonnage
reported more than once was anything but
a constant quantity.

Contradicts the Commission.

Mr.. Hines characterized the statement of
the interstate commerce commission that
there had been an increase of $J00Gl,CO
in freight charges between 1899 and 1913,
due to the imposition of higher rates as
''startliugly Inaccurate" According to the
information furnished to Congress by the
the commission. there had been a decrease
in the number of tons carried in 1893 over
1859 and an increase in the rate per ton
Mr. Hines declared that the inaccuracies
in the commissions statement could be
easily explained and he went into a de-
tailed statement of the matter that was
listened to with the greatest interest by
the members of the committee.
Briefly stated Mr.. Hines pointed out that
of late years there rad been many comhi-
nations of former independent railroads.
Each such combination of. say, two COM
municatng roads would reduce the total
freight tonnage reported by the combina-
lion.

hover, who has been in very poor
health for some time, which makes it
necessary for him to take an extehG-
ed rest, will leave as soon as possible
for California, where it is hoped by
his many friends that he will regain
his health. he came to the town 10
1867 and engaged in bushes s in which
be has been actively engaged, with
the exception of 13 months spent in
Colorado, until short time ago,
when he was obliged to give up on
account of i'll health. Upon being
questioned by a representative of
this paper Mr.. Boomhower stated
that his only competitor in business
here was the late Hiram Story and

Basket Ball

Last Friday evening the first game
of basket ball OF the season was play
ed at the Morrisvile Gymnasium, be-
tween Peoples Academy and Brigham
Academy of Bakersfield. While the
result, which was Sc to 10, would in
dicate that the game was not gilt
edged in some respects, it afforded
considerable interest and not little
amusement. While the visitors were
outcIassed at every point, they put
up good game considering that
this is the first year that 3. A. has
attempted to support a team, and
showed material which with proper
training, should develop into a
strong team. P. A. plays much
stronger game than last year and al,
though there was some good indi-
vidual playing, the team work was
especially noticeable. They would
doubtless play a much faster game
with a team nearer their equal and
some fast games are assured during
the season. The attendance was
large, being a pleasing feature with
the management.
A game was also played between
the Grammar school and the Stowe
High school, which resulted in a vic.
tory for the latter, the score standing
to 5.
