these elevators Another letter from MI
Wells was a circular letter to the members
of the association asking them to send
some gram to Lowell Hoyt s. Company,
Chicago, in order TO induce them to handle
business from regular elevators and to stop
handling the farmers elevator grain
other letters were identified by Mr.. Wells
as having been written by him, all tending
to fight the independent elevator dealers
and to induce or force the commission men
of Chicago to not buy grain from them,
Mr.. Wells testified that this practice of
sending out circular letters was stopped
about two years ago when the Chicago
Board of Trade decided to buy from ali
persons Offering grain for sale.
Cards from Peavey Company.
At the night session Of the commission,
the most important evidence was that o.
Nordscow, an independent farmers ele-
vator manager at Badger, Ia, who testi-
fed that while in the employ Of the Peavey
Elevator company he had sent out daily
the postal card quotation on telegraph ir-
formation from Peavey and that his I'M
derstanding was it was for the Iowa Grain
Dealers association, the present Ward Case
cards being the successor to his cards.
w. e. Meserole of Chicago, brother OF
the secretary of the Farmers Cooperative
association, testified that a careful analyst:
Of the case card showed a margin of
to 4 cents a bushel on oats and corn anc
5 cents on wheat to cents on barley
to 1871 cents on rye. his opinion beinl
that all were far higher than legitimate
margin.

ciaI.) -springfeld is stlll to remain on

governor. and John L. Kennedy, candidate
for congress. would address the multitudes
here on Monday, November .. Not to be
out.done by their political rivals, the DEM
ocratio state committee announced this
week that the Hon. w. J. Bryan. to-
gether with Candidate Gilbert NJ. Hitch

Tuesday, October 90 Everybody is happy
in consequence of the above efforts, and

Small Rent for Elevator.


In the testimony of Mr.. Hiland. who was
on the stand the entire forenoon, it was
brought out that the firm of ysimonds-
Shields Grain company pays 5000 year
rental for tile tanks for storing grain with
free cleaning, sorting. mixing and clipping
privileges. the capacity of the tanks being
$4,000 bushels. Attorney Marble asked IL
this privilege and the rental together was
not worth $4,000 Mr.. Hiland said the fact
that the firm was responsible and had
connections on the road was to be con-
sidered, as the road was forced to endeavor
in every way possible TO increase It's
freight shipments and revenue. He said
he would not consider bid Of a larger
rental from firm unknown to him. even
II the other firm gave bond. IL It was with
out the connections along the line,
Mr.. Hiland was questioned as to the ONCE
arrangement at Kansas City and whether
Mr.. Shields as manager OF the elevator
had a separate Office from his Office as a
grain dealer and member of the firm He
testified that the railroad took a lease on
a separate Office. but he could not say
whether It was occupied or whether or
not the clerks for the company also worked
for Mr. Shields grain company. As third
vice president he was unable to say whether
the Simonds- Shields Grain company paid
any elevator charges to the railroad. as
Mr.. Shields was employed to make such
collections.
Mr.. Hiland was then asked as 10 Mr.
Shields knowledge Of rate fixing and it
developed that when the railroad a year
ago made an export rate for corn and later
took It of. Mr. Shields was informed both
times and later. also In August OF this
year. when for ten days a special rate was
on for wheat to meet a lower rate of the
Great Western for -four. Mr.. Shields had
knowledge as manager Of the elevator.
Farmers Firms "IrreEuIRr."
At the meeting this afternoon George A.
Wells identified large number OF letters
written to the Eshenberg & Dalton firm of

that various grain firms In Iowa, particu-

use the most gentle methods in performing
this task, and several prominent citizens
were roughly thrown out into the street in
damaged condition. Later certain people
were admitted to the court room until it
was filed, and IT was then noticeable that
a large percentage Of the gathering inside
consisted of policemen in plain clothes.
A throng OF 1900 persons remained on
the streets outside patiently and in an
orderly manner awaited the result of the
hearing inside. When Langdoh and Heney
emerged they were heartily cheered. A few
minutes later Ruef appeared and was
hooted and Kissed. AS he was making his
way TO his automobile man who had been
elected from the court room attempted to
strike the political leader, but the police
seized him. Ruef was attended in court
and afterward by two detectives from the
police department.

Martinsburg statesman. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1869-1906, 1906-08-03

The Corporation Commissi on OF
Virginia, sitting in Richmond, in its
judicial capacity, has decided that the
Churchman 2 cents mile law is I'M
constitutional, and has dismissed the
test case of the common wealth, against
the Atlantic Coast Line railway. The
case will be appealed to the Supreme
Court.
Senator Alexander Stewart wants
the Cumberland Valley railroad to re
move it's shops from Chambersburg to
Scotland, Pa. He has submitted a
proposition to Vice President and Gen.
eral Superintendent M G Kennedy,
the terms of which include the dona-
ton of twenty .acres, of land for the
shops and water rights. 1t was argued
that ne railroad company would look
with favor on the proposition because
of what is termed in railroad circle
belligerent feeling on the part of
Chambersburg.
