THE WOODEN MILLS

We are indirectly informed that
it might be possible to secure the re-
turn TO this city of the former Wool
en- Mil Company, whose plant was
destroyed by fire last year. provided
the scity of fredericksburg or her
business men should be willing to
make some arrangement on the or
der of that made with the Shirt
Company now in operation here.
We have no plan to suggest, but we
do suggest that the Public Interest
Committee Of the Council and the
Manufacturing Committee Of the
Brs;ness Mems Association take this
matter up with Messrs. Melville and
Duvall and see if some arrangement
cannot be consummated for rebuild
ing of the Wooden Mills. This city
needs manufacturing plants ana
needs them badly and we can t afford
to neglect any opportunity to locate
one here. The rebuilding and con-
sequent re-operation of the Wooden
Mills would be a God send to our
laboring people and merchants and
consequently the matter demands
our serious and prompt attention.
Don't overlook it gentlemen Of the
council and association.

lZATiON.

Washington.-The Democratic lead
ers in the House are opposed to the
establishment OF a parcels post and
propose to provide relief from the ex-
tortionate rates OF the express COM
panies by abolishing these agencies Of
transportation.
II they can have their way the rail-
roads will be forced by legislation to
convey all packages now carried by
express companies at rates which will
be approved by the Interstate Com
merce Com mission.
There have been several conferences
on this subject during the last few
days, participated in by Speaker Clark
Representative Underwood. the floor
leader; Representative Lloyd, chair
man OF the subcommittee OF the
House Postoffice Committee. and Rep
resentative Burleson OF Texas.
The leaders are opposed to the par
cells post because they assert that 1t
would be another step toward the CEN
tralization OF power in the hands OF
the federal government which they do
not propose to permit. To avert what
they think would be calamity they
have reached the conclusion that the
way to deal with the question of the
transportation of small packages is to
legislate the express companies out OF
existence and require the railroads to
perform the work they now do.
Before any action can be taken IN
this direction the ability Of the rail
roads to. handle the business now
done by the express companies must
be established. A few days ago Mr..
Burleson introduced a resolution in
the House directing the Bureau OF
Corporations to Investigate the COM
panies and their relations with the
railroads.
Under the law creating the Bureau
OF Corporations 1t is forbidden to deal
with transportation agencies. Mr..
Burleson therefore will confer with the
Interstate Commerce Commission. and
as a result expects to modify his resO-
luton so that the commission will be
instructed to conduct an investigation.
In this shape 1t will be passed by the
House.
The investigation will be conducted
with the particular object OF ascertain
ing the capitalization of the express
companies and the present market val
ue and actual consideration paid for
their stocks and bonds in money; the
value OF their physical properties and
the assessed value of the same by
cities. counties or states; the relations
Of their officers with railroads: how
bonds OF an express company are
owned or controlled by railroad COM
panies or other express companies;
the causes OF the excessive transporta-
ton rates charged for express; wheth-
er the companies are using their
funds to oppose the establishment of a
parcels post, and finally whether any
agreements exist between the express
companies or between the companies
and the railroads in restraint Of trade
Mr.. Burleson said that express COM
panies constitute form of graft upon
the American people When they
were organized 1t was for the purpose
Of enabling the officers of the rail-
roads to "get something on the side"

(National News Association

NEW YORK. Oct. 1.-With $4,000
worth of tickets already sold through
mail orders and with money orders
pouring in on the management on a
steady stream, it was estimated that
the 151 worlds series between the \.
y. Giants and the Philadelphia Aath-
letics will prove the most lucretive
baseball contest for the worlds title
in the history of the national sport.
The time limit for seat orders by mail
expired at midnight and the cash pur-
chase sale will not open until Thurs
day morning. Today was given over
to filling the orders that came by post
and telegraph.
Hundreds of letters which arrived
despite the widely published condi-
tions of seat sales crowded gather
ed about the offices of the National
commission trying to buy seats. A
force of private detectives kept turn
ing them away.
Wagering is barred by law in New
York state and must be done under
cover, but despite this fact large
sums of money are being put up 1t
is estimated that over $250,O0O will be
carried by the Giants when they clash
with the Athletics in the first game on
Saturday. Statisticians, basing pre-
dictions upon past performances, esti-
mate that more than $1,O0O,000 will
change hands on the result of the ser
les. The Giants are strong favorites
here and odds on favorites even in
Philadelphia.
