AGENTS RAISE LIMIT
FOR CREDIT SHIPMENT
Shippers and Jobbers Enter Vigorous Pro.
fest to Move

Shippers and receivers of freight in this
city were yesterday notified by the Local
Freight Agents association that the COM
mercial rating of those who would be al
lowed to run freight accounts with the
roads had been raised from $4,000 to
$50, 900.
This action was taken by the associa-
lished yesterday. It is alleged that the
same rule does not apply in Minneapolis
and Duluth and that in effect it is a dis
elimination against this city.
The official letter states to the shippers
that in case firm or individual has a
rating of less than $4,000 it will be
necessary to furnish surety bond to Sc
cure the payment of freight due the
roads.
The whole matter has been laid before
the Commercial club and may be consid-
cred by that organization in the near fu-
ture. The shippers say the rule will act
as a hfndrance to the free shipment of
freight to this city.
