SEVEN TONS OF
RIPE EGGS SEIZED
DEPUTY MARSHAL TAYLOR
HOLD HIS NOSE AND BRAVE
" DOES DUTY.

Fifteen thousand pounds OF ancient
and very ripe eggs was the seizure
that Deputy Marshal Cash p. Taylor
bravely made at the mandate OF Dis
trict Attorney Watson, Thursday aft
ernoon.
BY SO doing he saved the digestion
of many Detroit family as the whole
seven tons and half OF near-chickers
was intended for use In baking here.
The question of what to do with
the interesting collection Is all that
confronts Watson now. There is no
doubt that they cannot be dumped In
the river or placed on the commons
outside the city without load protests
from the rivermen and farmers. APP
parently, the government will have TO
send force OF trusty agents TO dig a
big hole somewhere and put the choice
assortment there.
Thursday afternoon District Attor-
ney Watson received notice that q car
load OF ripe eggs was on the way from
Cincinnati. Taylor was given war
rant for the eggs and told to seize
them on arrival.
Fortunately. the eggs came by re-
frigerator car. and Taylor made haste
to have them transferred to a cold
storage house where their perfume
might be controlled.
II understand that several other
large shipments OF bad eggs have
come In here for bakers" stated Wat
son. I'VE have seized these under
the pure food law"

EXCESS BAGGAGE
RATE So PER CENT
OF FARE
SOME EXAMPLES OF RAILWAYS
GREED POINTED OUT IN HEAR
ING OF WHOLESALERS PLANTS
BY COMMISSION.

A strong showing was made by the
Wholesalers association OF Detroit
against the railroads of the. state In
the hearing before the state railroad
commission In the county building
Friday morning.
Points brought out In the testimony
OF various witnesses by Attorney AL
fred Lucking, for the Wholesalers.
were that the excess baggage rate Is
8 high as 81 "a per cent Of the pas
senger rate In some instances. in
stead of being 16 2-3 per cent as per
schedule; that every Wholesale house
I'm the state Is paying thousands Of
dollars every year In excess baggage
rates because OF this unjust arrange
ment OF the tariff, and that Wholesale
merchants in other cities, whose trav-
elers make only the big towns, are
given an advantage over Detroit
houses which make all the towns.
The hearing was called on complaint
Of Edison, Moore e. Co.. A. Krolik &
Co.. Burnham Stoepel 4 Co, the Mich
igan Drug Co. and others against the
principal railroads In the state.
The claim was made by Attorney
Lucking I'm addressing Commissioners
Glasgow, Scully and Dickinson. before
witnesses were called, that the princi-
pal complaint is against the arbitrary
minimum charge OF 15 cents per 100
pounds on excess baggage, no matter
what the distance.
II. w. Willard, with Burnham Stoe-
pei & Co., was the first and principal
witness. He testified that the SIS
a
age of 1900 pounds OF excess baggage.
The average journey between towns
Is IL IL miles. and this charge has to
be paid every time q salesman goes
from one town TO another, no matter
IL the distance be but two miles.
The minimum rate OF 15 cents, at
the scale of excess baggage rates per
100 pounds being charged at one-sixth
the fare for passenger, would be equiv
alent to a journey OF As miles. Yet
this charge is made for one or two
mile trip. Mr.. Luckingf pointed out.
Attorneys Butterfield, for the Lake
Shore, and Stanley, for the Grand
Trunk, took part occasionally In YER
bal sparring matches with Lucking.
One Of the spats came when he intro
duced a table OF excess baggage rates
and asked the witness II 1t we're not
true that the railroads all acted to-
gether In raising or lowering rates.
This the railroads attorneys objected
to.
One witness said he had timed the
handling OF his excess baggage by the
railroad men and found II averaged a
little more than one minute, yet he
always had to pay a considerable sum
for excess baggage. The testimony
was also brought out to show that the
railroads do not have 20 hire extra
help for the excess baggage In any
manner of proportion to the charges.
That the present high rates operate
to hurt the small towns was indi-
Gated by Lucking. the outlook being
that wholesalers may have TO skip
some towns where expenses would
eat up returns. This was testified TO
by Mr.. Willard.
The hearing took all morning and
was not completed at the luncheon
hour. The railroads will put num-
Der OF witnesses on the stand TO prove
that the rates are not excessive and
not higher than In other states.
