TO ADVANCE GRAIN RATES
New Legislation in West Held Re-
sponsible for Action OF
Roads.

Washington. March 50.-In accordance
with their intention expressed some time
ago the railroads constituting the west
ern trunk lines, the Central Pacific dssO-
citation and the eastern trunk lines nave
filed with the interstate commerce com
mission tariffs increasing their rates on
eastbOund grain and grain products, TO
become effective about April / This ac-
ton was taken. il is understood, because
of the enactment by legislatures of some
of the western states OF laws regarded
as inimical TO their interests
The particular law TO which the rail-
roads took exception was the 2-cent fare
act Of the legislature Of Nebraska. Soon
after the passage of that act officials ot
the railroads interested held a meeting
in Chicago at which il was decided not
only that they should test the constitu-
tiOnality of the measure, but that II
would be necessary for them to increase
their freight rates on eastbound grain.
The commission has issued an order
granting the carriers permission to post
and file at once effective April ]. 1907,
amendments pOstponing the date Of the
taking effect of the proposed advances in
rates on grain and grain products to May
l. leaving the present rates in effect until
that date. and on that date cancelling the
present rates and making the advanced
rates effective.
In making this order the commission
does not bar any complaints that may be
made TO il of the advanced rates by ship
pers 1t is expected that complaints will
be received and if they should be. the
commission will consider them on their
merits.

been arranged with the assent of every

les of the greatest value to mankind.

that have occurred since the first con-
ference. The subjects proposed by Rus
STA last June were accepted as a deflnl-
tive program for consideration by all Of

If nothing more were accomplished at
the second conference than action upon
these propositions. the gathering surely
would result in great benefit, and II IS
entirely within the power of the confer

IS UP TO STOCK OWNER
Recent Decision on Fencing Will In
crease Revenue of For
est Service.
Especial to The HeraldO

Washington, March 30-The forest
service issued a bulletin today calling
attention to the recent decision of
United States Judge Hunt of Montana
in which he declared that national for
ests need not be fenced to exclude
stock. no matter what the state law on
fencing may be. The forest service
therefore declares it is illegal not only
IN drive stock on forest reserves. but
even to permit them to drift there I'M
less the owner possesses a permit 1t is
claimed by the forest service that this
decisiOR will greatly increase the re-
ceipts of the service, as stock owners
living near reserves will be Obliged to
take out grazing permits or themselves
keep their stock off reserves. At pres
ent the treasury department is pecelv-
ing an average of $1,000 daily FROM sales
of timber grazing permits and fran
ehises through the forest service.

What America Wants.

Great Britain wishes to avail itself Of
this condition to discuss a limitation of
national armament and America to urge
the adoption as a rule of international
law the Drago doctrine, prohibiting the
use of force by any nation to collect in
ternational debts. Both are cOntrover-
sial subjects and. TO reduce possible fric-
ton, the Russian government has been
sounding other governments to develop
their attitude, with results that are not
wholly encouraging as to the reception
that will be accorded these propositions.
Great Britain's present naval prominence
and the fact that European nations are
generally creC--Ors have served to be
grave obstacles But the opinion among
officials here is that, regardless of the
fate of the conditional subjects, the sec
Ond conference will assemble and dis
cuss. with beneficent results. the sub
1ects already accepted as its program.
