Tuscaloosa are the productive fields for these mills, and comparisons were made of rates from them to the mills with similar distances in Georgia and elsewhere.
 Mir. Menzies compressed most of his argument into a written statement which he read. He said that from Sep tenber 1 to December 1 under the working of the rates approved last summer by the Commission, the Allan tic Coast Line had experienced a de- crease in cotton movement under that of the year previous: He also said that any material reductions in the ex- isting rates would cause cotton to move from his territory to North Alabama and seriously affect the business Of tho Enterprise Mil and any other that may be established on the line. rms was confirmed in a letter from w. D. Glenn. Secretary of the Enterprise Cotton Mill, who protested against any lower rates from points on the Coas' Line to the North Alabama mills.
 Mir. Menzies quoted rates on raw cot ton and mill products, which snoWeu that the mills on tho Coast Line pay only 67 cents per hundred pounds oe- tween the producing points and New York. He added that to give lower rates to North Alabama mills would prevent the road getting the second hauI which would come after the prod net had been turned out ot the lniiis'

On motion of Commissioner Sanders. adjournment was taken at o'clock for lunch.
 MT. Browder of the Southern Rail- way, resumed the stand in the after noon at 3:15 o'clock.
 The same line of catechizing was pursued by the chairman. He claimed that d Birmingham buyer of cotton from RusselIville and other points in Alabama has to face differential in rate of $1 and more in favor of the Carolina mills. The witness again re- ferred to the favorable rate from the Alabama mills to New York as an off, set. Several other points were men, tioned in the same argument.
 MT Browder said the reason why no lower rate is given on the Memphis di- vision is that the territory does not produce much cotton in Alabama. Sew eral special rates have been made on this division recently.
 Mir. Sevier as a Witness.
 l.. Sevier, general freight agent of the Alabama Great Southern Railroad next took the stand and submitted a statement in which he expressed sur prise at receiving a summons to ap- pear before the Commission on the matter of cotton rates on his line. The policy of developing the cotton indus tries and the absence of complaints from shippers made him certain that there is no need of any lower rates at this time.
 The witness told of the number of bales of cotton on the average that are shipped annually into Alabama City, Birmingham, Cottondalc and Tuscaloo- sa. the four milling points of the Ala bama Great Southern in tho State. The figures showed in comparison to the consumption that great advantages in picking grades are offered the mills.
 On being questioned by the. Presi- dent. MT. Sever made a number of eomparisons Of Alabama rates with those of other States.
 Very much similar interrogations were used by MT Conner in examining w R Powe, Assistant General Freight Agent of the Frisco Railroad, Mir. Denvven of the Mobile and Ohio Rail- road and MT AIenzies of the Atlantic Coast Line.

PETITION SENT TO OFFICIALS or
 MOBILE AND OHIO.

 the RaiIFoada.

The question of getting suburban or local Mobile and Ohio train be- tween Montgomery and Tuscaloosa came up again yesterday in the form of a petition from the business men Of Montgomery. Prattville. Autaugavillo and several other places.
 Several months ago The Advertiser stated the benefits that would accrue to the patrons of the Mobile and Ohio by the putting on of local train that would leave Tuscaloosa about [ q. m. and arrive in Montgomery at 10:30 a. m. The train was to leave Montgomery at .4:3o ?. m. and reach Tuscaloosa at 7!S0 ?. m., thus giving the people along the line of the Mobile and Ohio several hours fin Montgom- cry and putting them in their homes by supper time that night From Rooth's station, few nEles beyond Prattville tho Alabama Central runs to Autaugaville, nine miles distant. The trains of this road would. Of course, connect with the Mobile and Ohio local morning and afternoon trains and the merchants of Montgomery would receive the benefit of tho trade of the entire county Of Autauga.
 The following Is the petition that was receiving hundreds of signatures in Montgomery and Che other towns mentioned yesterday:

 we. tho undersigned. residents and business people along the line Of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, between Tus- caloosa and Montgomery. respectfully beg that a local passenger train be installed between Tuscaloosa and Montgomery. running to Montgomery in the morning. and leaving for Tusca- loosa in the afternoon.
