greatly incensed the French govern
ment and people, inasmuch as Ger

French resentment was fixed upon
Germany rather than Spain.
The German government, having
raised its flag in Morocco, has stated
with brutal frankness that it will
withdraw on one condition only-that
I'm consideration of Frances getting a
free hand in Morocco Germany must

Germany says to France, You can

you will give us a large slice of your
richest territory in the Congo-al-
though, to be sure, we do not eX-

A Great Victory for Inter Mountain
Shippers.

Shippers.
The Washington dispatches in yes
terday's Republican, covering the de-
cisions of the interstate commerce
commission on western freight rates.
comprised the most interesting news
that the shippers of the inter noun
tain country have read in a long
time.
Re-affirming the decisions of a year
ago. the commission finally holds
That charges for the back haul
from Pacific coast terminals to inter
mountain points will not be permit
ted;
That, while the carriers may charge
higher rates from the east to inter
mediate points than to the Pacific
coast, there must be such reductions
in the rates to intermediate points as
viii put rates more on a parity.
The net result of these decisions is
a substantial reduction in rates to
Phoenix and other inter mountain
points from the wholesale points in
the east.
When the Great Northern railroad,
under construction to the Pacific
coast, was approaching Spokane, Mr.
James J. Hill was interviewed by
Spokane shippers on the question of
the back hauI'-the system of
charging the through rate to the
coast from Chicago, say, plus the
back haul from the coast to Spo-
kane. Mr.. Hill denounced this
charge as unreasonable" and out
rageous," but as soon as the Great
Northern was in operation to the
coast, he fell into line with the other
transcontinental railways and imposed
the charge for the back haul" 1t has
always been impossible to convince the
shippers of the interior mountain
country that Mr.. Hill was wrong when
he denounced the back haul propo-
sition.
The interstate commerce commits
sion does not agree with the more
radical shippers of the interior, how
ever. in their contention that rates
to intermediate points should be as
low as the rates to the coast termi-
nails from the east. But the com
mission does say that the great diff
ference in favor of the Pacific coast
cities as against Phoenix and other
interior points must be adjusted in
favor Of the interior.
The commission recognizes that
there is an ocean competition at coast
points, which the transcontinental
lines must meet. But the commits
sion will no longer permit ocean
competition" to serve as an excuse
for excessive rates to the inter-
country. For example, when
the rate is certain figure from
Chicago to Los Angeles, say, 1T must
be conceded in all fairness that such
a rate is made independently of ocean
rates between the two seaboards-or
so nearly independently that ocean
rates become almost a neglible fac
tor. Consequently, shippers say. the
rate from Chicago to Phoenix ought
to be no higher than the rate from
Chicago to Los Angeles. And this
in substance is the view of the COM
The commission has I'M
dertaken to define the zones in which
ocean competition is a factor, and
to say to what extent it is a factor
in these zones. But hereafter we
