Not One Has Furnished Full
Schedules But All Have
Abolished Passes.
COMMISSION WILL FIRST
CONSIDER RATE CHARGES
Roads May Bring Test Case to
Determine the Legal Validity
of the New Law.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 2S.-The
Railroad Rate law, which was ap-
proved by President Roosevelt on
June 29, went into effect today AL
though the railroads have been grant
ed an extension of time for the en-
forcement of some of the provisions
of the law, the companies have found
it quite convenient to enforce the pro-
vision which prohibits the issuing of
free passes and terminates the valid
ity of the already issued. After to-
day the railroads will refuse to ac-
knowledge the validity of passes over
any of their lines.
The railroads have raised a great
many objections to some of the pro-
visions of the new law and if all their
demands for changes in the law, or at
least, temporary non enforcement of
certain provisions should be granted
it would have the conditions practic-
ally as they were before the rate law
was passed. The only feature which
the railroads were prompt to accept
was the pass feature. AS the passes
issued by the railroad companies are
usually issued on January l, and are
supposed to be valid until the end of
the year, it was believed that the law
against passes would not be enforced
until January 1 of next year. But the
abolition of passes meant money into
the pockets of the railroads, and, for
for that reason they could not see any
good reason to delay the enforcement
of that feature. At the same time
some of the western railroads pre-
tend that they are opposed to this
particular feature, giving as their rea-
son, that under the new law it will
be impossible for them to issue passes
to land agents and prospective buy
ers in the sparsely settled districts
of the west, and the natural result
would be great delay in the settling
of these districts.
The enforcement of the new law
will undoubtedly lead to large num-
ber of complaints and law suits start
ed for the purpose of testing the val
idty of certain provisions of the law
Many such complaints are already IN
the hands of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and will be considered
with the greatest possible speed
Many of these complaints involve de-
mands for the lowering of rate
charges, and these will be taken uI
and disposed of first. The Pennsyl-
vania railroad will probably bring the
first case to test the validity of the
law before the courts. 1t is under
stood that the first question to be
tested will be whether the initial car
rier shall be held responsible for the
damage or loss to the shipper.

known as the Improved Benevolent
Order OF Elks OF the World, which
will open its grand lodge session here
this afternoon and there is a rumor
among the members that b. F. How
ard, the supreme Exalted Ruler of
the order, will be ousted However
that may be, there will be an inter
esting time for somebody, when the
grand lodge meets this afternoon. The
delegates will be welcomed by Con-
gresham George F. Waldo and sew
eral responses will be made. The
trouble in the order arose over a con-
tiict between the Supreme Exalted
Ruler and the Brooklyn lodges, and
which resulted In the suspension OF
the lodges by the Supreme Exalted
Ruler. Howard, who lives In Coying-
ton, KY, has fixed the meeting of the
grand lodge for today, but had Sc
lected COLUMBUS, o., as the place. The
Brooklyn lodges, however, decided 10
hold the convention in Brooklyn, Sc
lecting Sumner hall for the place OF
meeting and today for the opening of
the convention. Notwithstanding the
threats OF Howard they carried their
point, and now they propose to oust
Howard

 foreign countries special agents of the Department of Commerce and Labor in the interest of fafe manufactured cot

 When 1t became known that there was a probability of legislation of this character, the Southern Cotton Manu- EfacturerS Association set to work actively to have some of these special agents assigned to countries In which tie product oE the American mills cSald be pushed.

Of ! course, Elf.
