I. A. GRIFFIN REPLIES TO
DAILY NEWS EDITORIAL ON
FREIGHT RATE ADVANCES
(From Chicago Daily News)
Mr.. Griffin Replies.

desire to call attention to an edito-
rial printed in The Daily News. May
Il, headed Back Fire on the Shippers"
in which you make the following state
ments: First, that my representation
of the case is not candid; second. that
what did have to say was based upon
the action of the shippers conference.
and. third, that had no right to pose
as business man having interests in
common with the shippers.
The circulation for signatures of a
statement relating to freight rates was.
as far as | was concerned. confined to
fellow members of the Railway Bust
ness association. and no reference was
made to the shippers conference.
personally attended this conference
and have no criticism to make on any
thing that was done there and none
was made or intended by me. but what
deprecated" was contained in an ar
ticle sent out by the Illinois Manufac-
turers' Association. dated May Z. and.
as a member of that Association.
personally wrote a letter to each of its
individual members, dated May II. In
this ! referred to the misleading and
unfair statements contained In the
circular of May mentioned above. and
in doing SO was candid" said
that the statement that railroads are
rapidly increasing their net earnings"
was not true and as to the correctness
of my statement beg to refer to the
following:
The latest interstate-commerce COM
mission reports show that during the
month of March eleven systems. repre-
senting every railroad north and west
on a line drawn through Chicago and
st. Louis. show an increase in gross
earnings for the month of March. of
nearly $7.00O,0O0 compared with March.
1909. while the net earnings for the
same roads in the same period show
decrease of S965.000: and the inter.
state commerce commission figures for
the ten months. July to March 81. in
1910, as compared with 1909. show an
increase In gross of over $4,000. 900.
while the net earnings of these same
systems in the same period of compare
son, show a falling on of over $780,.
900. And. as comparatively little OF
the increases In wages had even gone
into effect during March. the railroads
must provide some means to increase
revenue that is already decreasing
on an increased amount of business,
and there is no way for railroads to
provide this except by increasing their
rates. and surely there is reason for
the need of IT,"
In the third paragraph on the sec
ond page of this Illinois Manufac-
turers' Association circular Of May J
it is stated that 7.9o per cent. was
earned on the dividend-paying stock
making no allowance for the "a per
cent. OF stock on which no dividends
were paid. might. with equal propri'

dend paying stock. For a clearer def
milton, the average earnings should be
based upon the entire stock, and not
upon the best paying portion of it. I'M
less there is some reason why the
$500. 0OO, 900 representing the "a per
cent should not have received any divi-
dends at all.
In the final paragraph of the edito-
rial it is stated that l should not be
allowed to pose as business man,
having no interest in common with
the shippers" Inasmuch as my con-
Germ shipped an average of 100000 tons
of finished product during 1906 and
1907, and we were obliged to receive
more than $50. 900 tons of iron to fur
nish this, plus enormous quantities OF
coke, coal and other supplies. l can
safely claim to have shipped in and
out 10000 tons year, and as there
are no railroads who can AFFORD to haul
this material. or any part of 1t. without
having a revenue from 1t. an increase
Of 10 cents ton on my hauling charge
would amount to $4,000 and, there
fore. have business" interests in COM
mon with other shippers" The 100000
scented in the neighborhood OF 100000
900. This SIC, 000,0 represented most
ly labor. with the exception of the
cost of the ore and coal in the mines.
All the balance was made up Of wages
and profit on the different conditions
of the raw material until 1t was fin
ished product.
My Illinois plants produced 60 per
cent of this amount, or $6.0O0.OOO n
year. For three years our Chicago
plants have not run more than half
capacity. Therefore. there was $1,000
900 a year less in distribution because
of corresponding shrinkage in sales.
AS most of our iron and coal comes
from Illinois. this 100000 year was
not distributed in Chicago. as would
have been the case had we worked on
the same output that we did in 1905
and 1907. And a great deal of that
100000 which was not paid was
taken out of the business firms stu
ated in or near Chicago by the nom
purchases from their varied business
on the part of the community that
would have received the $3.000.J00 a
year for three years. That is the rea-
son why have a right. as a business
man. to deprecate any unfair or I'M
called-for obstacles that are placed in
the way of my business and the hun
dred other varieties of business in this
country that are affected by the money
put into circulation by the railroads.
When it is further considered that my
business constitutes but 10 per cent
OF the cost OF a car and that there
were nine other units similarly affect
ed. most of which would have been
tributary to Chicago. anyone can see
how important 1t is to his individual
interests that the railroad companies
should have ample funds to make these
improvements and purchases. and will
realize how comparatively easy 1t will
be to stand reasonable advance on
the freight for any material he will
need. IL he is receiving increased
orders.

WouId-Be Pole Finder Sends
a Message to Walter
Wellman.

NEW YORK, Nov. DIR Frederick
A. Cook, first American claimant to
the discovery of the North Pole, has
sent a congratulatory message to Wal
ter wellman, Arctic explorer and first
aeronaut to attempt to cross the At
lantic in an airship.
The letter came in the form of n
letter sent by a London newspaper
man, addressed to Wellman.
kindly send my heartiest congrat-
ulations to Walter Wellman for his
wonderful initial success" the letter
quotes DR.. Cook ms saying: ''lf he
crosses the Atlantic he will have
gained an object Of far greater use ia
mankind than the conquest of the
North Pole"
Cook, according to a letter, consid-
ers Wellmans feat one of the most
remarkable ever attempted by an
aeronaut. He predicts the final sue
cess of the venture and believes that
the crossing of the Atlantic In air
craft will eventually be common
thing.

lara, where for several hours q mob
marched the streets OF the city. at

public, rioted before the homes and
business houses of Americans and
destroyed large amount of prop.
erty.
So threatening were the demon.
STATIONS of the mob against the
American consulate that the city
was declared under martial law by
the authorities and troops were hur-
ried through the streets to prevent
an attack upon the consulate. To-
night the consulate. the residence of
tho consul and the property OF
Americans are guarded by the
troops.
The property loss to the American
residents of the city is considerable.
Ambassador Takes a Hand. ...
Henry Lane Wilson. the American
ambassador. today called upon Sec
rotary Creel, the Mexican secretary
of state. who later returned the call
of the American representative. Sec
rotary Creel assured the ambassa-
