complaint alleging that the rates from
Chicago and from the seaboard are
unjust and discriminatory when com
pared with rates to their western ter
ritory.
It viii be alleged that there has not
been a readjustment of the rates in
question for at least twenty years, and
that the discontinuance of the paym emit
of rebates operated as an increase in
the rates on all dry goods. This in
crease, it is alleged, amounted to be-
tween 10 and IS per cent, and means
a tremendous handicap to the Missouri
river pObbers.
Some time ago the Missouri river
jObbers made an application for a re-
ductiOn in rates from Chicago to the
Missouri river. Soon after that the
Chicago Commercial association asked
for a reduction of the differential en-
joyed by the Missouri river jobberN
over the Chicago people The reduc-
ton demanded was from IL to 25 per
cent. About the same time the Mis-
sissippi river shippers asked for certain
concessions in the rates.
The Missouri river jobber' petition
was refused and the requests of the
other shipping centers have not been
acted upon. The original petition of
the Missouri shippers had the backing
of the St Paul in so far as the officials
of that road believed there should be a
reduction in the rates. In this view
they had the partial support of the

to restore rates June /. This left the
western roads that had quoted their
rates on the cut tariffs hung up without
an outlet for their business. They
served notice on the eastern lines that
they could not restore the rates before
June TO. as the sale to the Boston con-
Vent1ons continued until June 8.
The notice caused a commotion
among all Of the eastern lines except
the Grand Trunk and the Wabash,
which were to profit by the decision.
The passenger men who were to meet
yesterday to discuss the steamship
business decided that the rate question
was more important and they wrang1ed
over it nearly all day, but succeeded in
reaching no decision.
Western railroad officials take the DO
sition that the eastern lines are de-
handing too much when they ask that
the rates be restored June 1. The west
ern men say that they did not get their
notices of the advance in rates until the
morning of May %, and that did not
give them the required time to file their
notices with the interstate commerce
commission required to advance roads
They say that they propose to use the
rate until June 10 and that they will
expect the roads to handle the business
on the cut rate basis
While the eastern men expect to be
forced to honor the cut rate until June
10 on business originating in the west,
the rates between Chicago and New
York viii be restored on June 1, ac-
cording to the instruction given by the
presidents.

Fourteen Noyices Initiated, Followed
by a Banquet.
Leavenworth, Kan, May 31.@The red
fez of the Shriner was very much in
evidence in Leavenworth as Abdallah
temple held a ceremonial session in Ma
sonic hall and later banquet at the
National. There were about 200 WISH
tors and together with the local mem
bers it made quite a large gathering.
At Masonic hall IA novices were given
all of the necessary "fixings' to make
them good Shriners and they got
through alive and in fairly good condi-
ton, considering the b1istered feet,
punctures from tacks and bruises from
camel kicks.
After the initiatory ceremonies the
mobiles repaired to the National hotel
where plates for $50 were laid in the
banquet hall There a big orchestra
was in attendance and for two hours
there was feasting, speeches and songs.
Pet Clayton of St. Joseph, who Will
be the next imperial potentate of the
Shriners of North America, came down
from st. Joseph, No. accompanied by
other Shriners.
Among those who came up with the
Kansas City, Kan, contingent about
10 o'clock on the electric cars, was
Mayor Rose. And it is said the mayor
of the town down the river which has
been having such a strenuous time with
the prohibition law confined himself
strictly to water.
