actual cost of the service rendered in

grounded upon practical rather than
ideal distinction.

what limitations should be placed up
on the matter which may properly be
embraced in that class?

IMPORTANT DECISIONS BY
COMMERCE COMMISSION

Washington, Oct. 1.-The Interstate
Commerce commission has reported
an important conclusion with respect
to the railway rate law, which 1t has
embodied in a general order made
public today. 1t holds that where a
state rate forms a part of the inter-
state rate. the state rate shall be filed
with the commission. This is an en-
tirely new feature in connection with
the operation of the Interstate Com
merce commission. The further an
nouncement has been made by the
commission that 1t intends wherever
possible to construe the law in ad
vance without waiting for any partic-
ular complaint to be made upon which
to base its decision. In this way It Is
expected that large number of COM
plants will be anticipated and the
work of the commission correspond
ingly lessened.

that 1t will increase the suffering and
cause some deaths along the coast Of
the south end OF Mobile Bay. Many
persons are homeless in that section
and are living in the woods on scanty
provisions. On Dappin island there
are 500 homeless with only three small
buildings for shelter. Despite two re-
lief expeditions sent out yesterday not
more than provisions for one more
day and additional supplies sent Down
early today. While no suffering in
Mobile proper, there is urgent need
in many points in the southern part OF
the bay and assistance probable will
be greatly received. Arrests were
made in some lower resorts today. the
negroes caught had been looting
wrecked houses. Isis determined the
citizens of Mobile to send additional
details of militia to these points. Citi-
zens OF Mobile have undertaken relief
measures with energy and are sending
food and clothing to stricken points
as rapidly as possible. The suffering
has been intense at Bayou La Batre

COMMERCE COMMISSION
GIVES OUT new RULING
Postal Commission Begins to Con-
slider Means For Curtailing An
nudl Deficit in Department.

Washington, Oct. 1.-After numer-
ons conferences about 40 representa-
tves of the various meat-packing
houses have agreed with Secretary
Wilson on labels which, under the
law must be put upon meat products
after this date. Throughout Secretary
Wilson stood for labels which, would
state exactly what the package con-
tanned, and this the packers finally
accepted. with a compromise that the
percentage of different meats con-
tanned in any canned meat article
put out under one name need not be
stated.
Secretary Wilson of the department
or agriculture says of the new meat
inspection law:
THE new law will be enforced
strictly We have an appropriation
OF $S,000,0O0 year to enforce it and
we will have enough inspectors. Pack.
ers who do no. keep their plants
strictly clean, who allow unclean
habits among their workmen or who
fail to produce meat products under
the most sanitary conditions will not
get the government label.
This means that they will not be
allowed TO ship their goods, and, In
view of recent agitation, ] am rea-
sonably certain that no packer will
ue suicidal enough to throw the
slightest hindrance in the way of an
inspection of the products and super
vision of the manufacture from the
time the stock enters the yards on
the hoof until 1t leaves in the form of
food.
There viii be no controversy by
the department of agriculture with
the packers. If they do not want to
let our inspectors keep a close watch
on every detail of manufacture, that
is their lookout, but in such case they
Will set no labels
II want to emphasize the fact that
there is going to be a different kind
of inspection at the yards under the
new law. 1t will be more complete
and more systematic and the regula-
tions will be enforced more rigidly."
The secretary said there were a
great many independent packing
houses in the United States, con-
Germs representing investments of be-
tween 100000 and 100000 each,
which the big packers called small
where there were no inspectors. These
are TO be supplied with inspectors
now.
