ICE IN MILTON 80 CENTS;
IN PENSACOLA 40 CENTS
Shipped From Factories in
This City and Retailed
in Milton.
BIG DIFFERENCE IN PRICES PAID
BY THE USERS IN THE TWO
PLACES, AS FREIGHT is ALSO

According to the statement of a
prominent citizen of Milton, Ice manu-
featured by the Stratton Ice Works
and Moore Ice Works of this city, and
shipped to Milton, is being delivered
to consumers in both Milton and Bag
dad at the rate of 80 cents per hun
dred pounds This is not By whole
sale or in large quantities, but in any
quantity that it may be desired. In
Pensacola. the rate is 40 cents a hun
dred when taken in small quantities
and delivered by the wagons.
This condition of affairs recently
came to light, and it was stated by
some that it was being done by ice
dealers in Milton in order to compete
with an independent ice factory which
is now in operation at that place. In
addition to delivering ice the same as
in Pensacola and having the same ex-
pense, the dealers in Milton must pay
freight upon the shipments, which
amounts to considerable when auy
quantity is purchased.
Lowest Here IS Cents.
Here in Pensacola where the same
factories that supply the Milton trade
deliver to the consumers the lowest
price at which ice is supplied resi-
dences is 35 cents per hundred
pounds, and this is only where guam
titles of not less than 100 pounds is
purchased. In saloons, hotels and
such places, where ton books are
purchased, the price is 80 cents per
hundred pounds delivered The latter
price is the same as it is purchased
in small quantities in Milton after the
freight has been paid
Can't Understand.
Those who are cognizant Of the diff
ference in the prices of ice IN the
two places and where in both in
stances it is manufactured in this city,
are somewhat at loss to understand
how it can be sold in Milton 10 cents
per hundred cheaper and freight paid,
than it can be in Pensacola, unless the
ice dealers in Milton are in business
for the pleasure derived from selling
ice at a loss. There is hardly any
probability however, that anyone is
losing money in the transaction.

have been tested have not only
shown speed on the surface and
under it but ability to stay down

EXPRESS CHARGES.

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has just handled the first
case in which it assumes the
perogative granted it by the new
rate law of controlling the express
companies. Express charges in the
United States are one of the most
o1erous exactions under which the
people suffer. Heretofore there
has been no way of reaching them
legally for they were not affected
by any law and could charge what
they pleased. The present case is
not far reaching. ideals only with
the case of cut flowers sent from the
surrounding country to New York
City. The express company with
out warning and without improv-
ing the service, doubled the tariff.
When brought to book for their
action, their defense was remark
able. They explained that under
their contract with the railroads,
they had to pay the railroad COM
pany As per cent. of their gross re-
ceipts. They wanted more for the
flower service than they had been
getting, but they had to raise the
tariff more than they otherwise
would because so much of the
increase went to the railroads. 1t
is to be noted with some satisfac-
ton that they were compelled to
promptly put the tariff back at
what it was before the raise.
