ROADS REFUSE REDUCED RATE
 FOR RETURNS
Decide That They Assume Just As Much Risk in Transfodt- ing the Same Goods One Way As Another.

SAN ANTONIO. Tex. Jan. s4.--
 tSpeciaL) Although the final decis-
 ions of the western classification com
 mittee which has now ended its ses-
 sicns will not be made public for
 some time. enough is known to justify the statement that few, if any, of the many protests made. have receiv- ed favorable action. On some of the
 most important questions the com mittee has ruled adversely to the De- titioner and in favor of the carriers.
 Perhaps the weightiest decision made is the one governing return freight Acting in compliance with a recent ruling of the interstate commerce commission. the committee decided
 that return shipments should be
 made under the same rating as the original shipment. Heretofore the railroads have allowed a reduced classification on such freight. but ia- asmuch as the weight and value of returned articles is claimed to be the same. involving the same risk and responsibility on the part of the car. Tier. it was decided to eliminate this privilege. A stand taken by the com mittee in relation to this was that shipments damaged in transit and for this reason rejected by the consignee. come within the carriers purview and can be disposed of as the carrier sees it. 4 shipment Of this kind, for this reason. does not come within the prescriptions of the interstate commerce commission, it was argued.
 The committee has decided to al low the continuance of the old rating on return empties fin all cases where these aye recognized carriers. It was also decided that number of articles which in the past have enjoyed return will in future pay orig nal rates.
 The attitude of the committee on i his Hoint vas that between the orig ! nal and the return shipment there

was interposed a period of usefulness
 of the article that removed it effect
 lively from the status of the ordinary
 return shipment. Some of the arti- cles effected by this ruling are: Az ricultural implements and component
 parts. photo negatives, cash registers armature cores, electric bulbs. spoiled
 beer iron mill rollers. damaged pd'
 pers. elecuotypes. stereotype plates, printers roller cores. billiard tables.
 empty metallic and paper cartridge
 shells. talking machine records. type. typewriters. vehicles. windmills and host of others. The nature of the articles effected by this decision IS such that return shipments are ai- mosts invariably for repair or ex- change, and the argument of the com mittee was that the railroad in these cases was not responsible for what ever deterioration there might be cited as the ground for lower rat ing.
 An important ruling Of the commit tee was the granting of lower rates on structural iron of all kinds to terri tories needing this aid, for the pur- poses of deyelopment.A rate for mix ed shipments in carload lots or less will be provided. On less than car load shipments fourth-class rating was accepted; this is to be reduced to fifth class rates in carload ship ment wish a minimum of 30.0Oo pounds Practically every kind of structural steel. iron. bronze. tin. and other metals. worked or partly work ed. are included in this new rating.
 The proposition to require the raul roads to notify the consignor of .he consiglee's refusal to accept a ship ment was not accepted by the com mittee. for the reason that it would impose upon the carrier additional responsibility. It was argued that while a good many railroads hereto fore had done this as an accommoda- ton to shippers. they were not ob- liged to continue this policy. or anx- ious to do so- New classifications were made on aluminium ware: the increase in shipments of articles made from this metal. making the necessary
 Owing to the unsettled state of aifairs on the Mexican railroads the committee and those attending the session as representatives of ship ping interests. were obliged to aban- don the planned excursion to Mex leo. 1t was feared that a strike might tie up the Mexican lines and that a great deal of time would be ost through being marooned some where in the republic.

UTAH INDUSTRY PROTECTED.
ANY further reduction Of the tariff
on lead would close many mines
and shelters and cause general
panic in the west.

Any further reduction Of the tariff
on lead would close many mines
and shelters and cause general
panic IN the west.
The above telegram was sent to
Senator Nelson A. Aldrieh, chairman
OF the finance committee OF the United
States Senate, in March. 1909. At that
time the finance committee was con-
sidering the lead schedule of the Payne
tariff bill. The telegram was sent by
Uncle Jesse Knight and his son J. VIII
Knight, who have their fortunes tied
up in the mining business, and they
did not care to see the tariff taken off
lead. 1t would have been a misfortune
for the Knights as well as for every
man that gets his living from the
Knight industries, directly or indirect
ly, and there are many OF them in
Utah.
There was a strong demand in the
east that lead be placed on the free
list or that at least the tariff be re-
duced. They do not take a great deal
Of interest in mining in the east. ex-
cept those who are stockholders in
western mines. Those who have any
thing to do with the lead industry are
consumers. instead OF producers, and
they naturally wished to get lead as
cheaply as possible. They know in the
east that taking the tariff off lead
would bring Utah lead into competi-
ton with the Mexican lead that is
mined by poems. who get less wage
for a week than the average Utah
miner gets in a day.
The cost OF lead production in Utah
is so much greater than in Mexico
that both the knights knew that it
would cause them 10 close their mines
and smelter. For that reason they
wired the finance committee that ''any
further reduction of the tariff on lead
would close many mines and shelters
and cause general panic in the west 4"
Do you want to support in Utah a
congressman that will vote for free
lead 10 bring about that dire condition
Of which Uncle Jesse is so afraid, and
a legislature that will elect a United
/ States senator, a Democrat TO be die
tated by the Salt Lake Tribune, who
will vote IN the Senate TO reduce or
remove altogether the tariff on lead,
''close many mines and smelters and
cause general panic In the west?"

The above Is from the Salt Lake
Tribune and is an excerpt from an
editorial in that paper defending its
action In having published throughout
the United States the statement That
Salt Lake is the only city in the Unit
ed States that has smallpox the year
round" That statement appeared IN
Pearson's magazine in an article de-
famatory OF Utah. and which was ap-
proved and endorsed by the salt Lake
Tribune. The Tribune advised every
body to read the article, and said that
It was correct. OF course. the Tribune
party organ said 1t was correct be-
cause the article was written from the
Tribune files, and the article was ar
ranged with the editor OF Parsons
by Fred T. Dubois of Idaho and the
management OF the Salt Lake Tribune.
The two men made a special trip to
New York 10 sea the editors OF Pear
sons, Everybody's and McClure's to
arrange for a series OF articles defam-
ing Utah. The intention Of the articles
was to so excite the good people OF the
east that they would go down IN their
pockets to help Utah. The money IS
TO be used in the campaign OF revenge
which the Tribune management is
running in Utah, and Dubois in Idaho,
each OF them with about the same
prospect OF success.

DISHONESTY IN COTTON TRADE

Foreigners having lost heavily
during the past year by advancing
money upon bogus bills of lading in
the cotton trade, an announcement
was recently made that such bills
viii have to be guaranteed on this
side OF the water before the British
banks will accept them in future.
There have been outcries from time
to time that the cotton market was
being manipulated in a manner con-
trary to law and several indictments
were returned against some Of the al
legged eonspirators by a federal
grand jury as a result of the activity
Of the department of justice. Patten.
the Chicago wheat king" who re-
Gently retired from active business,
is yet to be tried for his share IN the
alleged manipulation.
Cotton has been the football OF the
spectators for several years. all sorts
Of schemes being worked to influence
the market Fortunes have been lost
or won according 10 daring and skill
OF the men who engineered the deals.
The cotton Leak scandal is of
comparatively recent occurrence and
only a week or two ago the last of
the conspirators to be tried was Civ
en- short term in prison and fined
in addition. The offenses OF these
government employees consisted In Civ
ing their Wall street confederates ad-
vance information concerning the
agricultural departments estimates
Of the growing cotton crop.
Cotton forms one-fourth the value
OF the experts OF the United States,
and is therefore the greatest factor
in maintaining the country's trade
balance with the world. The Ameri-
can exports of raw cotton for the
twelve months ended August 81. 1910
which covers the cotton year" We're
6.33O.276 bales. valued at s4e0.0s3,-
PCS. This was 2.2s6.O6s bales less
than in the previous cotton year, but
the value was s40.74s,2S7 greater
than the shipments for the twelve
months ended August 81, 1908. II

other words. the average export price
this year was 14.2 cents per pound
against "a cents last year.
In view OF the enormous trade In
cotton It is important that the trans
actions should not be tainted with
fraud as exemplified by the use OF
fraudulent bills OF lading. That was
downright theft, OF course. and pun
ishable under the common law. Many
other fraudulent schemes are diff
cult TO discover and still more so to
punish.
American bankers are protesting
against the decision OF their British
brethren 20 require a guarantee. but
unless there is more honesty In the
cotton trade il is not probable the
protest will be needed.

OF course, the Utah Democratic
leaders see nothing reprehensible in
their action in agreeing TO turn one
fourth OF the Democratic vote in the
county over 10 the Tribune ticket. IL
is matter OF common report that the
Hon. Bill King. James H. Moyle and
others OF the Democratic leaders al
ways vote the Tribune ticket. They
probably see nothing wrong in asking
their followers to do what they are
willing to do themselves.

It was & sort Of tndiscreet action for

cate Of free wool, free lead and free
sugar. he is interested in helping TO
compass the election OF a Democratic
United States senator from Utah.

In the face OF the fact that the city

making a large profit? The answer TO
that from some truthful source would
be rather interesting.
