Commission.

NEW YORK. Sept. s.-The inter-
state commerce commission hearing on
the protest of the shippers within the
territory of the Eastern trunk line as
ISOLATION against the contemplated In
crease of railroad rates. when con-
tinued to-day, developed a mass of
technical figures which even the ateor-
neys present admitted they could not
understand. Representatives of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the
Pennsylvania and the vandalia lines
presented detailed analysis of the COM
mittee and expenditures of those lines,
designed to prove hiatt the proposed
increases in rates are justified and due
entirely to the recent increases of
wages.
The witnesses were all questioned by
Frank Lyons. representing the govern
ment, regarding an alleged distinc-
ton between shippers. They were
asked If big shippers did not receive
favors that were denied to the erdi-
nary individual, but all united in say
ing that all persons were treated alike.
