time ago, for a cross bill, upon the mo-

Circular No. 8, Imposing Car
Demurrage, Also Hits
Them.
TWENTY -FOUR HOURS
FREE TIME CUT OFF
New Rule Allows No Time to
Inspect COnsignments
of Grain.

Under the famous ''Circular No. s.,
relative TO car demurrage, which
created such furore III the ranks OF
smelling and sampling people here at
the time 1t was promulgated In Au-
gust, the grain merchants of the State
now have a grievance and demand an
adjustment. Their difficulty consists
of the fact that prior TO the passage
Of the rate bill and the issuance Of tho
circular by the Car Service association,
they were permitted twenty-four hours
free time in which to inspect and grade
grain, but under the new conditions
should they delay car an hour or two
IN transit to perform this inspection a
demurrage Of 81 per day is charged,
Among the commission houses of Salt
Lake and Ogden who have taken up the
matter are Chavlaud Commission com
pany, Nogcler Produce company, Sam
mel Williamson and others of this city,
and c. y, Smurthwaite, III. l., Griffin
and w. o. Kay Of Ogden. Heretofore
consignments of grain have been made
to the Junction City and Salt Lake and
stopped at these points while the con
sIgnee inspected the grain to ascertain
whether or not II was No. | or No. 2
wheat, or whatever grade it was
claimed to be, and then the car would
be diverted to its final destination. The
grain merchants aver that this inSpec
ton is just as necessary in connection
with the grain as is the sampling of
the ore upon which concessions were
made two weeks ago, and they hold that
they are entitled to the same considera-
ton in this matter as was given the
smelling and sampling men.
For the purpose Of arriving at an
amicable adjustment of the difficulty
they have suggested a conference be
tween themselves and the operating
and traffic officials of the Denver & Rio
Grande, Oregon Short Line and Salt
Lake Route, and this meeting will
probably be consummated within the
next day or two. And right here a
suggestion, would it not be an eminent
