NEW YORK, February Charges OF
discrimination of foreign express rates In
favor of the Adams, American. United
States and Wels-Fargo Express com
panies were heard today before Interstate
Commerce Commissioner Prouty. The
complainant was Joseph Ulman. a dealer
in furs of this city. who charged that the
four express companies named ship goods
from foreign ports consigned to express
companies here at the rate of So per hun
dred pounds whereas if the same ship
ments were consigned to individuals or
firms not engaged in the express business
the rate would be 81. Commissioner

complained of important enough to go
before the entire commission In Wash

We think many OF our readers will
be interested in a new and very eco
nomical gun now being placed on the
market. 1t is a scientific novelty
using an entirely new principle so
far as guns are concerned. 1t is oper-
ated by compressed air, the power
being the same as that used in
pneumatic hammers, rock drills, air
brakes, etc. 1t is purely pneumatic
or air gun and is designed for the use
of men and larger boys, although
small boys can operate it. The
makers guarantee that it will shoot
through one-halt inch of white pine
and state that it will do much more
1t uses shot costing ten or fifteen
cents a pound, and as there are
about one thousand shots in a
pound the economy of operation is
at once apparent. 1t is adapted to
to hunting all kinds of small game
is invaluable to fruit growers, The
advel ;sement of the makers, The

what the crop will be and to organ
ize for the purpose of making ar.
rangements for hauling and market
