RAILWAY RATES on COTTON
BEFORE THE COMMISSION
Important Questions win Be Decided
November 18th.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct. "A new feature
has been added to the important cot
ton rate hearing which will take place
before the state Railroad Commission
ON November 10. The C, Horace Nc
Call Company of Atlanta, cotton ship
pers, has filed a petition with that
body asking that it issue an order
prohibiting the congresses of the state
from using riveted cotton ties.
The chief objection to the use of the
riyeted cotton tie is that it frequently
breaks when cotton is packed tightly
in the holds of vessels for foreign
shipment, and the result is the cotton
arrives in bad shape.
The commission has assigned the
matter for hearing along with the
general question of cotton congresses
and cotton rates to the ports which
will come up at the time stated.
This hearing grew out Of the eff
forts of Milledgeville cotton firm to
get the commission to require the
Central of Georgia and the Georgia
Railroad to afford them certain facil-
ties which are necessary to the cree
ton of a compress at that point.
In it is involved the question of diff
ferential rates on compressed and I'M
compressed cotton and the subject OF
cotton rates generally between the in
terror and the ports

COMMISSION IS BUSY
IN AFFAIRS OF STATE
Many Matters of interest
Up This Week.

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. 4.-(SpeciaD
Several interesting and important
questions will come up for decision by
the Railroad Commission this week,
among them the question as to wheth-
er the Georgia Railroad shall be per-
mitted 10 increase its rate of fare
from 2 IA to IL cents per mile, the
same as is charged by other railroads.
Another question of interest in
which decision will be reached is
whether sheriffs of Georgia and depu-
ties shall be permitted to ride on
passes when travelling on official bust
ness. such as serving papers and car
rying prisoners.
The commission will also have w
the famous Columbus case in which
the city of Columbus and its Consum-
mers' Association have asked the com
mission to order reductions in rates
charged for electricity and gas for
lighting purposes.
AO ~CAA4AAAASoIOt gave Two Gays las
week to a consideration of this case
which is said to be most intricate
| one, and from remarks, which one Of
its members have let drop. they evi.
IDENTIFY look upon it as the most diff.
cult proposition they have yet had &c
| tackle.
The problem giving them the mos
trouble iswhat is reasonable price
for electricity per kilowatt hour, un.
der the conditions existing in Colum-
bus. 1t is hardly probable it is thought
that the commission will reach a de.
cision in this case this week. though
| 1t is possible.
The commission will also hear the
complaint of the patrons of the At
lanta and Northern Railway from At
lanta to Marietta in which they have
asked for a reduction in the straigh
| fare from 35 to 90 cents.
