With Commerce Commission.
$I.25
WRAPPERS
csc

Pittsburg. Pa, May Railroads
in Pittsburg district have filed tariffs
with the interstate commerce COM
mission for general advance in
freight rates to become effective June
Il. Probably the most important
feature of the advanced rates, as far
as Pittsburg is concerned, is the gen.
eraI increase of 10 per cent on all
iron and steel finished materials and
the advance of seven and one-half
per cent on pig iron and bil1ets.
The tariffs were filed in accordance
with the ruling of the commission,
that the proposed changes in rates of
all kinds must be made public at least
thirty days before they become eff
fective.
1t is said that the advance in freight
rates this year is greater than was
ever announced in previous years.
Practically every freight rate has or
will be advanced and it is reported
that coal carrying roads are now con-
sidering the question of making a still
further advance in coal freight rates.
The new rates will affect not only
the Pittsburg district but all points
east of the Mississippi river. The
present rate for pig iron from the
Mahoning and Shenandoah valley
to Pittsburg is S5 cents a ton, and I'M
der the new tariff will be 80 cents
ton

We're expecting similar orders at any

for the Wells-Fargo Express company,
said. This is interstate business and
we have the legal right to make such

public accuse US of being in cDllusion
with the liquor interests. 1t always has
been a business proposition with us and
we delivered liquor just the same as
packages of any other kind They all
looked alike to US, but guess it wasn't
right.

Walker, general agent of the Pacific

of the C. o. D. shipments. The recon-

no doubt that the order to discontinue
