Record-Herald, in which it appears
serially, offers a first prize of $1,000
to the woman who makes the best
solution. with rs other cash prizes for
women and girls who make the next
best solutions. The story begins in
The Record Herald Thursday, April

Herald containing the early Install
ments may obtain reprint of those
installments by writing to the Prize
Mystery Editor, The Record Herald.
Chicago While the masculine sex IS
not eligible in this competition it is
probable that it will interest the whole
family circle and there is 10 reason
why men should not help their wives,
daughters, or friends t. a successful

DULLNESS.

WILL CHANGE RATES
Traffic Managers Urge q Boost Of
Rates on the Lines East Of
the Mississippi River
ROADS WILL ACCEPT SCHEME

Executive traffic officials of ali rail-
roads east of the Mississippi river and
north Of the Ohio river clear to the sea
board have recommended to their presi-
dents increases in all class freight yates
in that territory.
The presidents of the same roads viii
soon hold meeting in. New York at
which the recommendation will be dis
Icussed and action taken upon it. IL IL
understood that the measure Increasing
the rates has the hearty and unanimous
support of all roads, but that sorae BEant
to go further and bring about increases
in the commodity rates as well The
territory in which the proposed In
.creases would take effect is what is
known in transportation circles as
"oficial classification territory Eor
the purpose Of determining What yates
various articles and commodities ct essul-
MERGE will take in this territory, ali of
the things shipped by freight are Ii
.vided into SIX classes, each class having
it's own rates.
In addition there are many commodity
rates made with a view to afforGINg
cheaper than the class rate fer som
modities, such as grain, packing a0use
products, coal and so on, whieA are
transported in large quantities The
present proposition is to increase the
class rates about as follows, the basis
Of the changes being the rates between
Chicago and New York; first class, 10
cents per 100 pounds or from rs 10 IS
cents; second class, an increase of 6
cents per 100 pounds; third class. an
increase of Z cents per 100 pounds
fourth class, an increase of 5 cents per
100 pounds; fifth class, an increase of 4
cents per 10C pounds, and sixth class,
an increase of 2 cents per 100 pounds
The class rates decrease as the number
of the class increases. The first class
rate is the one on which the dry goods
business is done.
At the New York conference thero
was a discussion whether it would be
better to reduce wages or to increase
freight rates. 1t was thought that an
increase in rates would take better With
the public and could be more easily de-
Tended than a decrease IN wages. Tt ig
not altogether certain that the presi-
dents will not go even further than the
traffic officials and decide to make SOME
changes IN the commodity rates TIE
rates on packing house products, for
example, are said to be low in campari-
son with the rates on other commodities
of equal Importance. IF the class rate
advances are made it will increase E1e
revenues of the railroads tremendously.
and it is stated that no opposition to the
move is looked for from Washington
