CLEANSING OF PUBLIC SPACE.
Rigid enforcement Of Regulations
Subject Of Consideration.

As q result OF the stand taken editorially
by The Star in Its issue of Monday in IA
vor of a rigid enforcement of those sections
of the police regulations which prohibit
the casting of vegetable matter, garbage.
ETC., on the public streets. sidewalks and
parkings. Commissioner Mcfarland today
referred the matter to Maj Sylvester for
Investigation and report. In the editorial
In question comment was made upon the
recent death In London. England. of a man
who slipped on a banana peeling and fell.
and upon the prompt action of the au-
thorities of that city in supplying an omis-
sion in the law by enacting a regulation
fixing a fine Of SO as the punishment for
depositing such refuse on the sidewalks
Further along it was asserted that the
District police regulations broadly cover
this point. but The Star was unhesitating
in declaring that the regulations were vio-
lated hundreds of times daily, much to the
detriment of otherwise clean-appearing
streets and TO the danger of pedestrians
generally. 1t was this question concerning
the non-enforcement of the law that Maj
Sylvester was asked to explain.

EXPORT COTTON RATES
RAILWAYS WANT PROVISION OF
Law WAIVED.
Shippers Claim That Requiring
Thirty-Day Notice Of Change
Will Work Hardship.

The interstate commerce commission to-
day heard arguments regarding the petit
lions from various cotton-carrying roads
for authority to change rates on export cot
ton upon less than thirty days notice. 1t
was the first time that the full commission
had sat since the membership was in
creased.
An interested spectator at the hearing
was Representative John Sharp Williams
of Mississippi -
The railroads Of the country have thrown
the southern cotton planters into a state
Of confusion by holding that tho railway
rate law which provides for a thirty-day
notice in the case Of changes Of q rate or
q joint rate applies to shipments In the
export trade. The roads. however, want
the provision waived.
The Shippers Contention.
The shippers contend that such an inter-
probation was never intended by the law
and that 1t would be impossible to conduct
the business Of shipping cotton II rates In
some way could not be changed to conform
to the constantly changing ocean rates.
Ocean rates change daily and fuctuate al
most 30 per cent at times, according to the
competition among the ocean carriers that
happen to be in port. 1t frequently hap
pens that with large accumulation Of cot
ton at q southern port and with rates fixed
at a given point several steamers come in
and are anxious to get some freight at al
most any price rather than sail empty.
Then rates tumble at rapid rate.
It is a question whether the law will not
be fully complied with by the railroad
publication Of its own rate to the place Of
export and then announcing from day to
day the export rate. II that were done It
is believed by the cotton men 1t would be
possible for the railroads to give through
bills of lading to the foreign port to which
the cotton is sent. Now, however. tho
roads refuse to give such through bill Of
lading.
Expressions during the hearing before the
commission today indicated that that view
may be taken by the commission. II the
commission does take that view Of the sit
uation the cotton planters will have re-
ceived a great benefit and will be able to
ship regularly and to take advantage Of
the lowest ocean rates that are offered
from day to day.
T. ]. Freeman, general counsel of the
Texas Pacific railroad. and L. Green,
freight tfafdc manager OF the Southern rail-
way, and chairman Of q committee repre-
senting lines south Of the Ohio and Poto-
mac and east Of the Mississippi were heard
In favor Of waving the thirtyday notice.

BULLS AND BEARS

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. September 12.-At the OUT
set this week not q few operators believed
that stocks would be sale on all adj
vances and they proceeded to act upon
this superstition. It Is understood that
the largest interests In the market. which
have been directing its course. decided that
1t might be well to encourage the idea
just mentioned. and hence. in the minds
Of some shrewd observers. the sagging
character Of the market for the last few
days. No one seemed to look for big
slump In prices at this time and there
was some division OF opinion as to how
long stocks would be allowed to react
moderately. BY some 1t was thought that
the market would continue sluggish and
embarrassing to the average operator
throughout this week.
So far as can be learned upon inquiry
among well-informed factors in the pres
rumors of an advance character which
were circulated yesterday. The informa-
ton does come from good sources that the
Great Northern Ore deal will not be an
nounced within the next few days, as was
predicted last week. These interests say.
however. that the announcement will not
be postponed for month as was -rumored
yesterday. While no specific reason for
or two was given after the close OF BUSH
ness yesterday, 1t was intimated that 1t
would not be well to make the announce
ment until the money market should get
into a more settled state.
~
Rumors have been afoat for several
days in Pittsburg that the Jones & Laugh
lin Steel Company intend erecting large
steel mills at Geneva, on Lake Erie. the
site Of the proposed harbor of the rail-
road the steel company projected several
years ago. 1t is stated officially that p. F.
Jones, jr., president of the company, and
Willis L. King. vice president have been
absent all summer and that there are no
plans for the immediate construction
either Of the railroad or Of the mills,
other than those announced in connection
with the old works On the south side. 1t
Is believed that the steel company will
perfect its plans for the construction Of
the Eastern Railroad Company as a Ger
mina1 similar to the Union Railroad Com
pany Of the Carnegie Steel Company, but
1t is not believed locally that there viii
be any construction OF lake iron-ore-
carrying line so long as the existing rail-
roads exhibit their present fairness.
1t is understood that the earnings dur
ing the month Of August were nearly dou-
BILE the returns for the month OF June,
and that the outlook now Is altogether
favorable.
