Gen. Allen strongly favors the building

The United States Army is not prepared

that the rates advanced were general
in their terms.
1t is impossible to particularize these
tariffs, but they largely affect commodi-

before definite statement Of the erect
of the suspensions can be made. The
tariffs showing advances in official classi-

proximately $4,000: and the total number
filed by the railroads certainly exceeded
