faction from Railroads in

PHILADELPHIA, April BIN an eff
fort TO get an explanation of the
charge of $1.35 per ton imposed by the
railroads for hauling cement to this city,
While only so cents per ton is charged
to Jersey City, although the distance
to this city is about rs miles less, the
Joint Trades Committee, at yesterday
afternoons investigation. held in the
Bourse Building, plled General Freight
Agent J. f. Aueh, of the Philadelphia
and Reading Railway, with questions
covering every part of the transporta-
ton issue.
Auch said that the freight rate to
this city had to be divided among sew
eral Dads.
Most of the cement that goes to Jer-
sey City is for other points he added.
1.-THE mere rate to Philadelphia woul
not establish an export trade.
I'VE cannot see our way clear to
make a rate of so cents on cement here
for two reasons. First. the cement
mills are not located on our line; sec
ond, other railroads, where the cement
originates, fix the rates TO this city; we
have to divide with other roads. If we
should make a rate of so cents we
would get only a portion of that rate.
Chairman Johnson then e a conn
munication from President Baer, of the
Philadelphia and Reading Railway, to
the committee, which was as follows;
Whenever the dealers in cement ere
ate similar conditions in Philadelphia to
those now existing in Jersey City, viz:
The cement manufacturers to establish
and maintain at their W expense
warehouses o n the water front III Phila-
delphia and ship practically in train
loads to their warehouses, we will con-
slider reducing the rate to Philadelphia
on cement for water shipment beyond.

The Casino at Monte Carlo is Il vast
structure Of dazzling white, the coll

on an afternoon when the life OF the
place was at its height, 1t would be
impossible To imagine a. scene of more

alight, and taking our places amid the
onrushers, we are bofne with the tide
into the imposing lobby of the beautiful
structure. Here q babel of sounds sa-
alutes our cars. Just ahead through the
glass doors, we see hall where prob

to q. Hungarian band, playing on an
elaborate platform in the center OF

its throngs of gamesters which rivet

there is another circle standing up be-
