new FREIGHT RULE
BENEFITS SHIPPER
Weighing and Inspection OF ALI
Western Consignments Is
Taken Over by Bureau
Railroads From San Diego to
British Columbia Enter
Into Agreement

A radical and important change in
the weighing of all western railroad
freight became effective yesterday,
when the transcontinental freight bu-
reau, with headquarters in this city,
took over the function of weighing
and inspecting all freight, whether in
carload or less than carload lots, car
ried on any participating road of the
bureau.
The agreement through which the
new rule went into effect yesterday ex-
tends TO all western roads from British
Columbia TO San Diego, and as far
east as Ogden, Ell Paso and. Albu-
querque. The roads affected by the
change include the Northern PACING,
the San Pedro and Salt Lake, the Great
Northern, the Canadian Pacific, the
Oregon Railroad and Navigation. the
Southern Pacific, the Santa Fe, the Salt
Lake route and tributary lines.
Under the new order issued yester-
day in circular form to the agents OF
all roads under the supervision OF the
transcontinental freight bureau an ef-
fort will be made to bring all weighing
of freight within a uniform system TO
afford better satisfaction TO consignees
and to reduce claims based on allega-
tions of overweight. Hereafter all
such claims will be referred directly
to the inspection department OF the
transcontinental freight bureau.
Agents at all stations will be held ac-
countable directly to the legal bureau
for a proper Weighing of all shipments,
and their work will be supervised by a
corps of travelling freight accountants
whose duty it will be to inspect scales
and check up on the system employed
by individual agents in weighing
freight. The transcontinental freight
bureau has for many years had super
vision of inspection and classification
of freight, but the new order enlarges
its sphere immensely, calls for the en-
ployment of large additional force OF
men and gives 1t much greater power
than 1t has ever had before.
j. W. Sheehan. who succeeded the
late J. ". Spencer as superintendent of
the transcontinental freight bureau and
who will have complete charge of the
execution of weight inspection, de-
clared yesterday that the new order of
things would be of great benefit TO the
consignee. He explained that proper
inspection would result in more accu-
rate Weighing. fairer treatment and
less trouble.

The Kid, who insists that this is his

Greenwater Monday in a delirious con-

tossed coin to see which should take

valley month ago to investigate a
proposed power site for the Brocking-

turn trip one of the burros gave out.

was the issue on which the two men
staked their lives, when they realized
that both could not escape.
