SHIPPERS FEEL EASIER.
Eastern Men Indirectly Assured OF
Delay in Advance.

New York, June 10.-Eastern rail-
road managers have materially altered
their plans in regard to a general in
crease in freight rates., according to
assurances indirectly given to the
large shippers in this territory within
the past week. While there has been
no intimation that the proposed 10 per
cent increase has been abandoned, the
impression is now general that no ac-
ton will be taken until after the presf-
Dental election. AS consequence Of
ficers of the industrial concerns which
would be most affected by higher rates
all other shippers for that matter
are feeling much easier over the gen.
eral business situation. They are i'm
bued with the hope that by fall condi-
tons will be such that every freight
car in the country will be in service.
Shippers, it appears, have a very
fixed belief that the railroads were un-
prepared for the storm of protest that
followed the publication of the fact
that radical increases were under seri-
GUS consideration. At the meeting OF
the shipping and manufacturing in
terests of the country, in Chicago on

Agents Urged to Cooperate
With Prosperity Association.
PRESS AID is SOUGHT.
Gould Alliance With Grand
Trunk Is Reported.
Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.

The Missouri Pacific has sent to its
agents throughout the country a circu-
lar letter urging them to cooperate in
promoting the movement started at ST.
Louis by the National Prosperity as
ISOLATION to diSpel the idea that this
great nation is not at the present time
prosperous" The letter is signed by
B. M. F1ippin, freight traffic manager;
c. L. Stone, passenger traffic manager,
and J. w. Higgins, assistant general
manager. The latter declares that If
every individual will recognize the fact
that the resources of the country are
unimpaired, -the wheels of prosperity
will soon turn as rapidly as they ever
did" The agents of the company are
asked to solicit the support of the
newspapers in their various commune
ties for the prosperity movement. and
to aid in the formation of clubs to be-
come affiliated with the prosperity as
ISOLATION.
Gould Grand Trunk Alliance,
What would seem to explain the re-
cent visit to P1ttsburg of C. NJ Hays,
vice president and general manager,
is a story from Pittsburg about deal
for routing traffic OF the Canadian
road from that district. If true, 1t will
bring about a change, and divert to
Rochester business that now goes
through Buffalo. According to the
the Iselins, the Gould interests and the
Grand Trunk management, have result
ed in some sort of a tacit ARRANGEMENT
by which the Iselins are to give finan-
cial assistance to the Pittsburg Ter
minal, now in the hands of a receiver,
and the Buffalo, Rochester and Pitts
burg. controlled by the Lselins. with the
Grand Trunk. in return will get yalu-
able rights in Pittsburg over the Wa
bash property. Under this plan traffic
in being diverted to Rochester. would
move from that point. The other effect
would be to create great deal of new
lake traffic. Business out of the Pitts
burg district, destined for the Canad-
Ian Northwest or the Orient, will be
taken to Buffalo over the Buffalo. Ro-
chester and Pittsburg. and then by
lake to the Grand Trunks line at the
head OF the Great Lakes. 1t is under
stood that the Wabash wanted to get
some rights in Buffalo over the Buffalo
Rochester and Pittsburg's facilities
as one OF the considerations of the deal
This point, 1t Is said, is still unsettled |.
The Wabash is in litigation with the
city of Buffalo to compel the latter to
take back the Hamburg canal strip
that is bought for nearly a mil
lion dollars. on the ground that a clear
title was not conveyed.

EACH COUNTY
 GETS SHARE States Common School Fund Apportioned. MONTGOMERY COUNTY SECOND Jefferson Led the List in the Money
 Received. If the Actual Per Capita to the Common schools Included the Seven Nor maI schools It Might Be sasl
 Instead of s2.48.
MONTGOMERY COUNTY SECOND

The complete list of the States com mon school fund auportioned to each county october 1st was compiled Friday by the State Department of Education. It shows that the total amount avail able, $1,71o,590.37. was divided among the slxty-seven counties on the per cap ita basis of S2.4s.
 This per capita, 1t should be remem- bered, would be misleading if 1t were taken as representing all the money that Is given by the tax payers to the schools. On the contrary in the ma tortty of the counties there Is a special extra school tax.
 Nor does the per capita of s2.49 strict ly speaking represent all the money that Is apportioned from he State to the comon schools unless one counts the normal schools out of such category. This year the normal schools are get ting from the State an aggregate of $S2,000. If this were added to the to- tai amount distributed to the schools on the $2.49 basis it would raise the per capita by about ty@lve cents.
 After statin gthe amount to which each county Is entitled. Hon. Harry c. Gunnels. State Superintendent of Edu- cation. in sending out the apportion- ment sheets to the county boards. re- minds the local authorities of the fol- lowing innovation in the educational system of the State introduced by the Code of 1907:
 The Code of 1907 makes the poll tax. without regard to race, a county fund. Under the old Code 1t was a district fund with each race entitled to its poll tax. The sum of the poll tax bal ances of both races in vour county for year ending September 32th. 1908. must be consolidated with the ooll tax for both races reported for the year be- ginning October 1st. 1908 The aggre- gate thus obtained should be appor- tioned among the various districts in your county. without regard to race or the district in which 1t was collected. in the same manner as the general fund is required to be apportioned.
 The preliminary apporttonment of the general fund should be sent to this office not later than November Ist, 1908, an dthe final apportionment em- bracing both general fund and poll tax, must reach here not later than March 1st. 1909.
