BAGGAGE RATE HELD UP.
Increase on Excess" to Be lnvesti-
gated BY Commission.


Washington, DC. = New regula-
lions for transportation of baggage
proposed by nearly every railroad in
the United States, which, in effect,
would advance the rates on excess
were suspended by the Interstate Com
merce commission. The suspension
becomes effective July l, and contin-
ues in force for 120 days, pending
investigation. The new regulations
not only sought to amend the excess
rates, but to prohibit the carriage OF
certain size pieces of baggage. The
proposed regulations follow:
.'On and after July, l for any piece
of baggage Except immigrant bag
gage checked at port of landing) the
greatest dimension of which exceeds
45 inches, there will be an additional
charge for each additional inch equal
to the charge for ten pounds of ex-
cess weight.
"On and after July 1, 1912, no piece
of baggage, the greatest dimension OF
which exceeds 70 inches excepting
immigrant baggage), will be trans
ported in baggage cars.
The commission believes that the
fixing by the roads of the dimensions
of baggage will work an unnecessary
hardship upon travellers.

Pleased With Results.

Pullman-The farm demonstration
train sent out by Washington state
college has returned to Pullman. The
party was tired, but delighted with
the results.
Professor R. w. Thatcher, director
of the experiment station, said:
1--WE talked to 1920 people on the
trip and / am reporting to the rail-
road company that in point of interest
shown and satisfactory results OBJ
tanned regard this as the most sue
cessful train we have operated. Some
of the territory was entirely new.
We had never operated train be-
tween Coulee City and Cornell, but
had operated over the remainder of
the lines.
Zone pleasing feature was that our
audiences in nearly every place were
composed mostly of farmers. There
were fewer townspeople than had Wis
tied previous trains. Those who
came did SO to learn and not from idle
curiosity. l look for lasting results. "
