Mr.. Benning, of Bath, having been

the places were all engaged. made no
demur. but coming early to the start

the blinds, settled himself comfortably
and fell asleep.
Other passengers arriving and peep

to the hostler that it was impossible
to travel with such a giant. The argu-
ment awakened Mr.. Benning, who lift
ed the blind, drowsily declared that
he should not get out, but II anybody
chose to pull him out he would offer
no resistance, and went to sleep again.
When he again walked up, at nearly
an hour past midnight, he looked out
to see at what town the coach was

WANT REDUCTION or
SLEEPING CAR HATES.
Upper Berth Rates To Be Clipped
twenty-five Per Cent and Seat
Rates To Be Reduced.


San Antonio, Texas, Dec. 8.-The
railroad commission of Texas has
taken up the question Of lowering
sleeping car rates in Texas and into
and out Of Texas. Railroad Commits
sioner Williams has started the action
by filing two important motions with
tho commission. One asks the reduc-
ton Of the rates within the state, over
which the commission once before
took Jurisdiction, and the other the
reduction OF the interstate charges. It
is proposed that the upper berth rates
be made less than the rates for lower
berths and the seat charges be re-
duced. The proposition would possibly
be to clip so cents from the upper
berth rates, where the lower rate is
50, and that 20 per cent reduction be
effected in the rates for lowers and
the seat charges.
Some time ago the Texas railroad
commission reduced the sleeping car
rates. but the order was enjoined in
the federal courts. II is now proposed,
II the Pullman company does not vol
unfairly reduce the rates, to bring suit
before the interstate commerce COM
mission to compel the same general
reduction in Texas and into and out
of Texas. The motion reads as fol-
lows:
Il move to set for hearing in Feb
ruary, 1911, proposition to reduce
Pullman rates In Texas to the scale
of charges lately agreed upon IN
case pending before the interstate
commerce commission between the
Pullman company and certain states
In the Middle West as complainants,
reserving to the railroad commission
OF Texas the right to put in any other
scale OF charges that may appear to 1t
to be just and proper
Il move that the railroad commits
ison of Texas take up with the Pull
man company the question of the vol
untary application by that company to
Texas points on interstate business OF
the scale Of rates agreed to between
the Pullman company before the inter-
state commerce commission in cases
brought against 1t by certain states in
the Middle West"
