have insisted all along that the pres

gard tonight's final action as great
victory for the strikers. Only the
coal company officials and their nom
union employees and civilian guards
are fearful of the result. Unless more
men are imported, their opening of the
mines will be delayed.
At Plum Run the conditions are
more favorable from the companys

To- DODGE LAW IS
NOT ROADS, AIM
Rates Through Ohio viii Be Reduced
Soon as Possible, Say Officials.

Considerable comment has been
aroused among railroad officials over
the reported discovery by official
Washington through recent decis'
ion of Controller of the Currency
Tracewell that the railroads operat-
ing through Ohio are paying no at
tention to the 2-cent fare law en-
acted by the last legislatures on in
terstate business. For instance, in
case a man buys ticket in Pitts
burg for passage to Indianapolis the
ticket is sold for passage through
Ohio at the same rate as prevailed
before the passage of the new fare
law.
II fail to see why the so-called
discovery in Washington should have
created any talk whatever in Ohio
where the conditions are well
known said General Passenger
Agent B. f. Horner, of the Nickel
Plate "The facts in a nutshell are
that it has been a physical impossi-
bility to put the new law into effect
on interstate business. 1t cannot be
done yet for some time, but as soon
rs it can be accomplished the law
shall operate, as I suppose it was
intended to
"The plain fact is that the Ohio
2-cent laws passage upset every

every point in the country from
Maine to California First the rail.
lie fo rt, tho
Of Ohio the benefit Immediately OF
that law, so the difficulties of the
rate readjustment solely in Ohio
have beset us
For weeks we have been working
as hard as possible to get our rates
adjusted between Ohio points, then
between points in Ohio and other
lines with which we do business, and
that alone has taken every moment
of the time at our disposal. We have
been utterly unable to adjust the
whole mass of rate sheets to the in
terstate business, but we shall do so
as soon as we can. 1t has been a
most tremendous undertaking and
when | tell you that our rate clerks
are kept as busy as can be by the
ordinary run of business then you
may imagine the Strain that has
been put upon them in the effort to
adjust the upheaval of rates made
necessary by the new law.
The men who passed that law
simply had no conception of the tre-
mendous results that piece of law
making has had upon the railroad
men, especially the rate clerks. There
are not, ] feel safe in saying, half
a dozen competent rate clerk idle in
the entire country, and that it is I'm
possible to get men to help us do
this work 1t will be fully a year
before all the disturbed rates can be
readjusted and made to work
smoothly"
THE railroads doing business
through Ohio are not trying to hin-
der the operation of the 2-cent fare
law, nor are they trying to beat the
travelling public out of whatever is
coming to them under the new law"
said Assistant General Passenger
Agent j. d. Brown, of the Erie, con-
firming Horners statements. THE
delay in establishing interstate rates
has been due to the utter impossi-
bility of getting the figures worked
out. 1t is a terrible undertaking
and the rate clerks have been SIM
ply worked to death. L do not look
for the last rate sheet to be COM
pleted inside of year from the day
the new law went into effect"
