statement on recommendation OF .
change from Chief Examiner Brown.
Binder Irvine has been the main
subject of agitation since the hearing
began. The effect Of the concession
will be a saving of 100 per cent In the
rates. Shippers will also be allowed to
ship biner Irvine In mixed cars OF
agricultural implements. This was re-
garded as another point in favor of the
opposition. A ruling in the new classi-
flcation was to the effect that binder
Irvine undert he new schedule could not
be shipped in less than carload lots.
Shippers complained that this would be
q detriment to the manufacturing and
farming interests.
The railroads submission to the pro-
test of the state railroad commissioners
and the shippers in regard to this par
ticuar it EN- of the tariff will not keep
the state commissioners from fling
their protest with the commission IN

A statement will be sent to the men,

state officials asking that they be al
lowed permission to argue the advisa-
bility of the suspension OF the entire
schedule as is demanded.
