ed by Owners of Diaries Out
side of Jurisdiction.

As a result Of the order requiring
that COWS on all dairy farms from
which milk is shipped to the District
be subjected to the tuberculin test. the
Milk Dealers Association Of Washing
ton is understood to be planning a for
NAL protest to the Commissioners, with
a request for q public hearing. at which
all phases Of the matter in controversy
may be given an airing.
The tuberculin test order has been in
force for some time with reference to
dairy farms in the District. Health OFF,
Ger Woodward's latest order that cows
milk is obtained for local consumption
must undergo the same test was issued
only a few days ago.
It has produced 4 veritable storm of
objections from the dealers i'm the city
who deliver foreign-produced milk to
local consumers. 1t, Is expected these
dealers will be aided in their fight by the
farmers whose herds would be affected
The form letters from the health de-
farmers I'm the outlying sections of Mary
land, Virginia and other states whence
milk is shipped to Washington. In each
order the dealer is given thirty days in
which to have his cattle tuberculin tested,
and all animals which show reaction
separated from the herds.
In event of the refusal Of farmers to
have their cows tested, or in event the
cows fail to pass the test successfully,
the health officer declares the permits of
the dairymen to ship milk to this city
will be revoked.

FILES BILL IN EQUITY.
Railroad Objects to Ruling Regard
ing Coal Cars.

PHILADELPHIA, October "a bill in
equity asking that the order Of the inter-
state commerce commission commanding
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company to
abolish its rules aud regulations as to the
distribution of coalNcars in the bituminous
fields be annulled, has been filed in the
United States circuit court by the rail-
road.
Jonuary l. 1905. the Pennsylvania adopt
ed system of allotting coal-carrying
vehicles to mines in Tyrone. Cambria and
Clearfield East End and South Fork and
Scalp Level districts OF Pennsylvania, by
which the transporters were to receive
cars according TO the rated capacity of
their mines.
Soon after the method went into effect
several coal companies complained to the
interstate commerce commission that the
system Of allotment was discriminatory
and intended to bestow great favors upon
certain OF their competitors. After a
hearing the commission entered an order
forbidding the railroad from continuing
the system after October l of the present
year.
In the bill in equity filed. it is set forth
that the system does not give any undue
or unreasonable preference to any one
and that il is not unlawful

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

An improvement in the tone OF the mar
ket was shown at today's meeting of the
stock exchange, both by the increased
volume of the transactions and by the
better prices paid. In neither case. how
ever. was the change large in extent, but
any tendency of the kind in current con-
ditions is regarded as having an impor-
lance beyond the mere surface indica-
tions.
An increased buying and an upward
movement in prices in the local stock
market reflect the improvement which is
taking place in the general market, and
this latter is attributed to the lessening
or the apprehension of a hardening in
money rates and the growing certainty of
good crops. both in this country and in
some important localities abroad.
