tracing business, and Mrs. Dora
Berry, daughter OF T. T. Vets, form

A Rat Chaser

C. L. Reppenhagen, the saddlery
man, has a new rat exterminator.
AS is generally known, rats are
unusually thick around the south
west corner of the square and Mr..
Reppenhagen has been annoyed by
them. Recently he bored hole in
the floor, connected hose to his
automobile exhaust pipe and ran
the other end into the floor fore
ing the exhaust from the auto
when the engine was started into
the space under the floor. ANY,
one who has ever attempted 60
breath this poisonous gas knows
the effect-well the rats leave as
quickly as possible.

JOINT RATES UPHELD
IN ARKANSAS CASE
CANCELLATION OF TARIFFS
DEFERRED UNTIL JAN
UARY.

Washington, Sept. Smother rul-
ing of Importance in the so-called tap
line cases new pending before the in
tcrstate commerce commission here
came yesterday, when the commission
granted the application OF the Crit
tendent Railroad Company, having
offices in the Scimitar building, Mem
phis, Tenn, and certain intervening
petitioners, for an order suspending
the operation of the cancellation of
Joint tariffs now existing between the
Crittenden Railroad Company on the
one side and the Chicago, Rock Island
and Pacific railway and the st. Louis,
Iron Mountain and Southern railroad
on the other.
The cancellation of the joint rates
was to take effect on September "a,
but the suspension extends the pres
ent arrangements until January .,
1911. The result of this order will
he to prevent the large increase in
freight rates on cotton and lumber
from PORTS on the Crittenden rail-
road. which connects the Chicago,
Rock Island and Pacific railway with
the Iron Mountain railway, to Mem
phis and other points, and lumber
dealers and cotton firms in Memphis
will be glad to learn of the action of
the commission.
The application of the Critten rail-
road was argued before the comm s.
sion by C. L. Marsilliot of Memphis,
and the intervening petitions of GER
tain sawmills, firms and planters liv-
ing and operating on the line OF the
railroad were presented by Walter {.
Chandler of Memphis. So intense was
the interest of the citizens of Crit
tenden county, Arkansas, that they
took concerted action against the or
der of the commission in the form of
a protest. A further hearing of the
case will be had when the interstate
commerce commission convenes in
Memphis this fall.
