CHIEF CONTEST EXPECTED TO
DEVELOP QUESTION OF
JURISDICTION.
RATES UNDER DISCUSSION
RAILROADS OPERATING OWN
CARS GIVE SHIPPERS Low.
Err RATES.

Washington, Oct. 20. - What prom
Uses to develop into government le-
gal battle against private car lines
was precipitatcd before the interstate
commerce commission by the course
taken yesterday at the beginning of
the hearing instituted to show the
connection between refrigerator cars
and the railroads. Counsel for the
commission directed every effort to
bring out the fact that great railroad
systems operating their own refrigera-
tor car lines give to their shippers a
much lower rate for refrigeration than
is obtained on roads that are COM
PEELED to operate in connection with
private car lines.
In this the railroads, notably the
Illinois Central and the Pennsylvania,
through their traffic freight managers,
who were on the stand the greater
part of the day, apparently aided the
commission. AS a result. there were
many sharp tits between the counsel
for the commission and the attorneys
for the Armour car lines and other
private car COlIipdHleS
Jurisdiction Is Involved.
The action Of the commission in in
itiating and probing the complaints
has the double purpose of establish
ing it's jurisdiction over private car
lines and correcting the evils COM
planned of. The chief contest is ex.
pected to develop on the point of juris'
GictiOn.
Chairman Knapp opened the hearing
by reviewing the proceedings institu
ted and calling up the first case, which
was directed against practically all OF
the roads of the Southeastern United
States and the Armour car lines.
Contracts Not Filed.
Frank Barry, who represented the
interstate commerce commission il
bringing out the evidence and exam
lining witnesses. stated that severa
roads had not filed contracts existing
with car lines, and these were called
for by Chairman Knapp.

R c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review

r. c. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
of Trade says:
Improvement is reported in retail
trade, although weather conditions are
still far from ideal, and excessive rain
retards agricultural progress sufficient
ly to cause conservatism among deal
srs, yet confidence in the future is the
prevailing sentiment, and leading dry
goods jobbers are unanimous in antcl-
pating a large fall trade. Manufacture
ing plants are busy, especially in heavy
steel lines, except where usual repairs
are being made or seasonable closing is
necessitated. Shoe factories find diff
,ulty in starting work on fall footwear,
owing to numerous supplementary spring
orders, and there is little idle machinery
In textile lines, which feel the impetus
of advancing raw materials.
Building operations make favorable
comparisons with recent years, and there
is little controversy regarding wages
or hours of labor.
In the iron and steel industry there is
great activity on old orders and gen
eral confidence in a vigorous demand
during the second half of the year, but
current buying is extremely light, ex-
,ept in a few departments. Hence, the
mills AND furnaces are more active than
the markets just now, which explains
the apparent contradiction OF reports.

do you really think that you can
distinguish the tastes of potatoes and
onio1.5?" was the unusual question
that Pro-. Burtis Burr Breese asked
his psychology class at the University
of Cincinnati the ether morning.
81 have yet to see the individual
who could tell them apart when they
were reduced to the same consistency
and when the sense of taste only was
used"
At this point Miss Luella Latta, a
member Of the class, showed some evil
dcnces of doubling, and the professor
asked her if she would not exhibit to
the class exactly how discriminating
her sense of taste was.
He explained that he did not have
the potatoes and onions on hand, but
that he had something far more de
cided in its taste and quite as familiar
to most people.
Then Miss Latta was asked to steE
up to the rostrum and when she was
seated Prof. Breese told her that she
must not breathe through her nose
that is,;she must rely altogether on the
taste and that he was certain she
would be unable to distinguish the
three things that he then proceeded
to give her separately.
She failed, quite as the professor
predicted, and he then told the class
that Miss Latta had not been able to
tell wintergreen from peppermint or
peppermint from cloves.
In fact" he said, none of you can
tell the difference simply by the sense
of taste. The taste is aided greatly
by the sense of smell. All you really
taste is sweet and sour, salt and bit
