AGREEMENT REACHED
right Between Cotton interests and
Railroads Ended.

H'"Gs" NOtSOE interests and
Railroads Ended
Greenvtlle. S. c., April 1.-Accordfnr
70 u statement tonight by Lewis w.
Farker. a prominent cotton manufac-
turer OF this city, the fight between
the cotton mills and the railroads for
a more convenient schedule OF rates
on cotton pieco goods between Interior
points and Charleston and through
rates to New York. has been settled by
an agreement out Of court.
The statement OF MIR. Parker Is In
erect that the agreement has been
reached on two questions. Ono in re-
gard to the through ratio from Interior
POINTS in South Carolina to fix a
maximum rate Of As cents per hundred
pounds on piece goods, the roads agree
Ing TO reduce to this figure wherever
the rate now exceeds 1t.
The other question was in regard
to the use Of Charleston as a port, and
1t is agreed that on shipments OF goods
on all through rates proviso of stop
page In transit Is made, enabling some
goods to be stored In Charleston and
distributed from there without extra
charge. This is similar to tho we'll
known concentration privileges.
This agreement practically ends the
fight. which has been made through
the railroad commission OF the State.
Warehouses will probably be huilt In
Charleston for storing and distributing
centres In the near future
