RAILROAD TO STOP
PEDDuNG FROM CARS.
Commission Notifies Transportation
Companies They Can Prohibit II
u They Care to Do So.

The management Of all Texas rail-
roads win issue orders this week pro-
hibiting the use OF cars and refrigera-
tors as sales rooms with view of
breaking up the practice Of peddling
from cars. This was announced
Wednesday at the general offices of
the different companies.
The railroad men have been under
the impression that there was rule.
filed away somewhere in the archives.
which made it imperative that they
allow the practice OF peddling from
car doors. Each railroad, however,
has this week received word from the
state commission advising them that
no such rule exists and that it is en-
tirely within their power to break up
the undesirable practice. The carriers
say they will forbid the sale of any
fruits or vegetables or any other class
of freight from the door OF the cars.
1t has long been the custom of ped
dlers to receive carload shipment of
fruit or vegetables and to sell the
stock from the car door while the cars
stood on sidetracks. This has been
objected to by both the retail and
wholesale grocers and produce men of
the state and they have filed COM
plant with the commission. They al
lege that the practice has injured
their business The peddlers have
only had to pay demurrage charges on
the cars while the merchants have
had to pay high rents as well as carry
other liabilities.
The railroad men say they will put
an end to the peddling of goods before
the case comes up for hearing before
the commission. They claim they have

Miner accepted his resignation with
reluctance.
Mr.. Underwood graduated from

belt OF this state. and for the past
year he has been supervising the con-

are being erected on the campus.

The English syndicate is planning

practice, but were under the impress
sion that they had to submit to it..
They allege that by stopping the prac-
tice they will not only confer a favor
on legitimate merchants, but win re-
duce the percentage OF accidents
which are incurred by persons who
sell from cars or who go on the right
of way to buy from peddlers.
A meeting of the state grocers was
held in Waco Wednesday for the pur-
pose of discussing the matter before
taking it to the commissioning Houston
