NOVEMBER WEATHER
WAS ABE0RMALLY WET

Official confirmation of the suspicion
that the month Of November was wet
and cloudy is given by the summary
Of the month issued from the local
weather observatory today. According
to the official scoresheet twenty-five
days of the month were cloudy. Of the
remaining eight three were partly
eli ts Only five Of the thirty days
the total rainfall of the month, 2.52
inches, was 1872 inches in excess Of the
average precipitation for the month fo1
the last seventeen years. This rain
fell on nine days Of the month
Rain is where the month came up
strong. Only two Novembers in the
seventeen-year period covered by the
local records beat it. They were No
vember, 1896, with 3.8 inches, and No.
vember, 1905, with 3.07 inches. This
weather is in keeping with that of. the
entire year, which now shows an ac

recent reduction in grain ratesg Ten
per cent. Why was the reduction fixed
at 10 per cent? The witness did not
know. He stated his company took car
load freight in preference to less than
carload freight, when there was oppor-
tunity for a choice.

(Which is the preferable class of
traffic; livestock or grain?'
"In choice between a carload of
grain and one of livestock. I cannot
say which I'd take. It would depend
on conditions. I would try to get them
both. -
Mr.. Sweeney was then shown, the
waybill on the shipment of apples on
which Mr.. Conley had been questioned.
The witness was non-committal He re-
fused to say he considered the rate in
part or whole unreasonable. He called
attention, however, to the fact that the
severe weather on the western, end of
the route would call for higher cost
because of the increased risk.
