Status Of Coastwise Steamship Lines.
An important conference was held
today between members of the inter-
state commerce commission and the rep
resentatives Of several Atlantic coast
wise steamship lines concerning the
maintenance of established rates on
shipments Of freight by combined
water and rail route. The steamship
officials do not assent to the authority
Of the commission, so far as the recent
~ enacted railroad rate law seems to
apply to them, but they desired to dis
cuss the situation and get a working
agreement. %, ...
The representatives Of a number of
coastwise lines gave assurances Of their
desire to cooperate with the commits
sion and the railroads in observance Of
established rates and to promote the
general purposes Of the statute. D.:
They do not admit control by the
act to regulate commerce by unquali-
fed concurrence in Joint rates, lest in
doing so they might be estopped from
asserting their legal independence Of
the provisions Of the act In certain

decided 10 advertise for bids for the col
lection of garbage TO be in by yesterday.

OF awarding the contracts for both. The
opinion was read by Secretary Hamann
At the conclusion Of the reading of the
opinion President Tomlinson stated that
it was clear and to him satisfactory The
other members also thought the opinion
a very clear and comprehensive one. II was
received and will be recorded Secretary

ceived
No other business was transacted ex-
cept the paying OF several bills.

State streets. This new location was
quickly filed with goods and customers.
The old store, at State and Washington
streets, was replaced by a new one of
larger and finer proportions, and was de-
voted exclusively TO the retail trade. A
large building-one of the largest of its
kind-was erected at Madison and Mar
ket streets for the wholesale business.
The fire. instead of discouraging the firm,
doubled its activity and capacity.
Early this year IL was announced that
the old store building that has been a
landmark in Chicago for two decades was
to be replaced by a gigantic stone strue-
ture as tail and massive as the mammoth
annex Mr. Field had constructed four
years ago at State and Randolph streets.
The new structure would make the Field
retail store the largest in the world.
All these moves were at Mr.. Fields
dictation. His was the master mind in
the retail as well as the wholesale bust
ness. It was his methods that had made
his store sought by patrons for thirty
years, and he always said that If he could
not progress he would not care TO be in
business at all. His will was determined,
his policies fixed, his foresight sure. He
was not lover Of riches. but he loved
the battle of life. This was Unborn in
Marshall Field.
Il was the policy of Mr.. Field TO keep
this prestige and to encourage house
popularity. His statesmen and other en-
ployes were aware of this wish, and their
combined efforts have never permitted
the house reputation to recede from the
mark set for it by its head in the years
/ gone by.
