Des Moines, March 27-The Iowa
railroad commission today fixed the
commodity rates on brick furniture,
paper, farm implements and wag-
ons for distances from 290 miles to $50
miles, and all intermediary distances
at a fiat rate. This makes it possible
for Iowa towns on the west bank of
the Mississippi river such as Dubuque,
Clinton. Davenport and Burlington, to
ship to the Missouri river at the same
rate as cities on the east bank of the
Mississippi thus enabling them to
compete with Moline, Rock Island and
other Illinois cities.
The commission also granted the PEE
tition of the Corn Belt Meat Produce
ers' association fixing the rate OF
sheep in double-decl cars the same as
the cattle rate and with 75 per cent
rate on sheep for feeding. Both rates
go into effect April 10.

New York Reports crookedness in
Handling Savings Of Immigrants
Who Come to These Shores.

Albany. n Y, March 27.-Informa-
ton concerning immigration into this
state for. the past few years has been
given out from the state department Of
agriculture in connection with the bill
introduced in the assembly yesterday,
proposing the state department for the
collection of such information, both
industrial and agricultural, as would
be of benefit to the immigrant. Ac-
cording to the statement, immigrants
to the number of 1,076,463 took up
time being at least during the past
three years. A large portion of these
Immigrants came here from southern
Europe. where illiteracy is prevalent
1t is claimed that during 1907 they
sent to their native homes savings es-
timated at sS0O.0O0,O0O which, had they
been informed of conditions in this
country, would have remained and been
invested here Thru this traffic, the
statement says. about 1000 illegal
banks are being operated in Greater
New York, a large proportion of them
in direct violation of the state bank
ing laws.
These banks stimulate such trans
actions of money thru false pretenses,
largely" continues the statement
"They are not subject to any national
or state regulations"
1t is claimed in the statement that
$4,000 former Immigrants We're in
duced to emigrate from this country
during the last few months, CARRYING
with them sums variously estimated at
from s150.0oo0OO to s25o,0OO,O 900. 1t is
contended that many of them are now
returning to this country penniless, to
become public charges
