roads adversely affected by the Rock Is
lands equalization plan. and found them
wen pleased with the situation. They
told Mr.. Mcvann they had been watching
Nebraska closely and found that the Rock
Island IL getting no more grain from the
state than It was before II cut the rates
In order to carry grain by way OF Kansas
City. Local grain men have made the
same observation TO MIR. Mcvann.
Mr.. Biddle's equalization plan made a
cut OF cents in the rate from pointk in
Nebraska south of the Platte to Memphis,
but this was reduced in effect TO TX cents
by the taking OFF Of the elevation allowance
at Kansas City. Omaha grain men thought
that with the scent cut the Rock Island
would get an enormous amount OF grain
through KA nsas City, but with dfsadvan-
tage of only IN cents they figured they
still had a fighting chance. The roads
equalization plan was rendered nom
effective during the twelve days OF low
rates, but when that period expired, on
August 10. they began to watch with
anxiety the efforts OF the Rock Island 10
get business. They feel sure now that
Mr.. Biddle would have to further cut the
rate in order to haul the grain.
Reminder for Biddle.
Secretary Mcvann thinks Mr.. Biddle will
not make a further reduction in the face
Of a public pledge made in an interview
a few days ago. Mr.. Blddle said In the
interview:
THE, statements that have appeared In
the press TO the effect that the Rock Island
contemplated further changes in its rates
to the detriment of Omaha are absolutely
false"
An interesting incident of the boycott
is told by Will L.. Yetter. who has just
returned from the east. While In New
York he was approached by a traffic agent
of the Rock Island, who asked him to ship
his newly bought stock of wall paper to
Omaha over that road. Mr. Yetter ex-
planned the situation to him in no uncer-
tain terms. telling him the Rock Island
probably would get some business from
Omaha when It stopped its discrimination.
The Rock Island didn't haul the wall
paper.
Secretary Mcvann declines to talk at
present on the adjustment by the Milwau-
kee and the Northwestern OF grain rates
from South Dakota to Omaha. He says,
however, that a reduction in wheat rates
VIII follow that on corn and oats.
