to enforce an order the Interstate Com

Mr.. Glasgow, in a brief statement 10
the court. said the conference had de
veloped a sentiment toward satisfac-

case be continued 10 days. Second Vice
President Hugh l.. Bond, Jr., for the
railroad, stated that he believed an
agreement would be reached. He asked
an indefinite postponement, which
practically ends the case.
While the agreement reached by
the parties has not yet been made pup

pany gains every point of importance
it has been contending for, including
switch connection with the railroad
and fair rate and distribution of cars.
1t also retains all its legal rights, with
the understanding that it will furnish
the Interstate Commerce Commission,

the information in its possession and
can obtain as to discrimination in this
State by the railroad companies.

No MORE FREE SEEDS.

The House Committee on Agricul-
culture decided by a vote of TOT not
to recommend any appropriation to
buy seeds for free distribution by the
department Of Agriculture. This means
a saving of about $3.50, 900 annually.
The only seeds purchased by the de-
partment hereafter, if Congress sus-
tains the committees action, will he

was influenced to abolish the seed dis
