space of $50 cubic feet Their weight prevents
them from being knocked about on shipboard

California lines still are being inn
portuned by the sugar industries TO
force the publication OF a reasonable
rate to points east of the Illinois and
Indiana state line and TO points in
northern wisconsin now excluded
from the application OF the Chicago
rate An attempt will be made to
obtain the concurrence OF the Wis
consin lines in publication OF a IS
cent rate to that territory. The opin-
ion prevails. however that with re-
spect to rates east of the Illinois and
Indiana state line such rates can not
be reduced below the sums of the
locals from Chicago. which is in ac-
cordance with current arrangements.
The anxiety of the sugar people To
reach these additional points OF con
sumption is due TO the heavy proeuc-
tion of sugar in California 1t is pre-
sumed that the eastern sugar inter-
