DISCRIMINATION DENIED
BY RAILWAY COMPANIES
Replies Are Filed to Charges Made BY
Merchants in Connection with
Freight Rates.

The answer of the Washington and
Old Dominion Railway to the complaint
OF o. j. De M0ll and others. regarding
| freight charges to and from Washington
to the North and South, was filed yes
terday with the Interstate Commerce
Commission. The answer is a general
deniel that the rates OF the company
are in any way unjust or discriminatory
TO Capital shippers.
| The company denies that Washington
is on the main line. and declares that
the road hauls no freight over its own
lines into the city OF Washington. II is
| admitted further that the rates to Alex
! andria are lower than those to Washing
ton, but the road denies that this is in
any way discriminatory to the merchants
OF this city.
1t is stated that the road publishes no
through rates to Richmond. Va, except
those on grain. which. II maintains, are
non-discriminatory.
The Delaware. Lackawanna and West
ern Railroad, replying to the same COM
plant, declares it does not participate
in any traffic south of WASHINGTON, de-
clares 1t has no defined territory known
as New England and Eastern cities rate
territory, and denies that II maintains
any rates that are excessive or unlaw-
full.
This road admits that Washington is
gateway between the North and South
and rs distributing center for points
in the South" 1t denies that amp rates
IN which 1t participates deprive Wash
ington or points in the Southern States
named in the original complaint of the
benefit. and advantage OF washington's 5
location. or that such rates give to the
receiver and shippers Of freight in Balti-
more, Alexandria. and Richmond an ad-
vantage over shippers and receivers in
Washington
Replies along somewhat similar lines
also were received from the Philadelphia
and Reading Railway and a joint reply
from the Pennsylvania Railroad, Phfla-
delphia, Baltimore and Washington
Railroad, Pennsylvania Company, and
New York. Philadelphia. and Norfolk
Railroad.

MACHINISTS CRTTICISE
ATTITUDE OF OFFICIALS
Department of Labor Not to Conduct
Navy Yard Wage In
vestigation.
PRESENT PLANS ARE OPPOSED

| Hone held out by the Navy Department;
to the Navy Yard employees that the De-
partment Of Labor would conduct an in
dependent investigation as to the wages
to be paid employees Of the Navy Yards
has been shattered.
n. P. Alifas, president Of District No.
a. International Association of Ma
chinists. who is representing the ma
chinists of the government. called upon
Assistant Secretary Of the Navy Roose-
welt late yesterday afternoon for a final
understanding. He was informed that the
Department of Labor would not investi-
gate the wage question.
These continually shifting positions
taken by the Navy Department are a
great disappointment TO the employees" a"
said Mr.. Alias last night. "and what
action the employees will take is diff
cult TO predict at the present time.
Instead Of given the expected in
crease the hope was held out by Secre-
tary Daniels that the employees would be
given a representative on the wage board
at each yard.
when the employees had acquiesced in
this arrangement the officials of the
Navy Department concluded that il
would be undesirable to give the en-
pIoyes this representation, but offered as
a substitute TO ask the Department of
Labor to make an independent fnyestI-
cation as to what wages should be paid
Navy Yard employees.
This program the Department Of
Labor as late as last Saturday was will
ing to carry out This third proposition
was approved by the employees when II
was seen that representation on the wage
boards could not be secured from the
Navy Department, and the department
was so informed by a committee dele
gated by the convention of District No.
A, International Association of Ma
held here September % TO 26, to
interview Secretary Daniels and Assistant
Secretary Roosevelt
The present plan of the Navy De-
partment for ascertaining the wage rates
to be paid is a little better than that in
vogue during the previous administration.
and in view of the instability of the
Navy Department there is grave concern
felt by the employees as to any results
being secured and as to the outcome in
general"

By FRANCIS sHAFFER.

After all, demoralizins as it is TO live
under the wearing influence of chronic
1ault-nnder, II is better to be victim
and suffer the frayed spirits that are
bound to come in a fretful atmosphere
than to drift into the habit oneself.
For the fact is, the trick of fault
finding steals upon folk unaware, little
by little, steadily fastening its ugly
clutches without once whispering that it
Is robbing them OF all that makes for
pleasant companionship and grace IN
living
And if something might shock them
Wlde-awake II would be a real blessing,
not alone to their little world OF home
folk. out most of all TO themselves. Be-
cause the inevitable fate of the fault
hinder is that everybody who can runs
away from the poisoned atmosphere.
And what is it all about?
Nothing on earth is worse than the
petty annoyances that are mountains
or mole-hills according 10 the way Of
meeting them. And the little grievances
-shockingly small they are sometimes
pass away very quickly If they are not
foolshly coaSed into something bigger.
But, You see, the trouble is, the habit
comes so like a thief in the night that
the worst grumbler of all does not realize
that she-is Il always she?-is slipping
away from her old companionable self
ana tsInting the sweet, comfortable air
Of home over foolish little irritations that
are big and disturbing only as they are
magniied
And one really believes that II the
fault-fnding words spoken in the course
Of a day might come tumbling back TO
the culprit and II she might know just
what havoc she wrought in the home,
she would seriously try to drift another
way.
Because nobody wants TO make OF her
self an object of dread 10 a whole house
hold-yet that is what the fault-finder
does.
She finds something wrong in the work
and the plans of the day, something
wrong with the workers and the planners,
and without pausing to remember that
things are bound to go awry sometimes.
she starts in to grumble-but not at her
self.
Strange, is it not, that folk who drift
down the complaining tide find so little

7 fault with themselves? Their way of
doing things seems pretty good 10 them
selves and they do not hold up a mirror
where it is needed the most, do not stop
to remind themselves that the whole
world enjoys the freedom of being 'Iet
alone" once in a while and of escaping
the irritable flow of words.
SIenIaI Sort of Work.
Perhaps it is true that the chronic
grumbler, by hammering away at the
folk with whom her lot is cast. serves
| to strengthen them and make them grow
sweeter. more patient and tolerant. Quite
likely that is true, but deary me! II IS
menial sort Of work, and who, II she
realized it. would want TO make others
grow strong in the beautiful graces by
reason of her own dreary hammering?
She teaches the trick of yielding, shows
all who come within hearing range Of
the querulous voice. the vital need of en-
larging the walls of self and of rising
above the little annoyances Of life. Shows
them, too, by way OF contrast, what a
beautiful thing 1t is to carry about
morning face a cherry heart and
words that make for a bit OF comfort
And meanwhile? Often, too, it hap
pens that 1t is only the folk tied hard
and fast who abide in her presence.
And, selfishly, that is one OF the great
est reasons why II behooves US all to
look ourselves well in the face once in
a while or so, for we know very we'll
that II the peevish fault-fnder really
guessed the way she was drifting, and
the dismal toll inevitably eXacted, she
would do something TO break the horrid
spell, whatever it CostGin effort.
And who knows which way We may
be tending?
If we are minded to look for them.
there are veXations enough and things
sufficient to upset US, but IT scarcely
pays to lose our peace of mind, to grow
fretful, downhearted and uncompanion-
able because the world refuses to do
our bidding. Because, in the last analysis.
the real havoc OF fault-fnding rests
where II belongs-upon the unhappy folk
who fnd something wrong upon which
to hang a tale of woe, something to start
them grumbling. For when home folk
would run away to escape il, II the way
were quite clear TO rdnning-that is the
worst kind of havoc. and the heaviest
price to pay for the habit.

But the day OF reckoning is as sure to
come in real life as it does in the play.
but with this distinction. Whereas, in
the play, the elderly lovers discover their
mistake in time, and are prepared to face
the situation as it really is, in real life
things are not likely to end so happily.
In real life, alas, a woman is as old as
she Jocks, and that, alas again! is often
very old indeed. In real life, a man is
also not only as old as he looks, but as
old as he feels into the bargain. the sum
total OF which, with most of US, approx
mates the age of Methuselah.
How idle it is for either a man or a
woman with youth behind them to
imagine that they can find any happi-
ness married which they cannot find by
remaining just good friends. For while
l am unalterably prejudiCed against the
possibility of any real love affair between
elderly men and women. I am a strong
believer in the possibilities OF beautiful
and lasting friendship between such. 1t
is, l believe, the mistaking of the one
for the other that prompts so many
matrimonial yoke. That, and perhaps,
an over-weening vanity in which they
share and share alike"
Sanctioned by Common Sense.
In pleading for the age-limit Of eight
cen to twenty-five years, l have already
stated that it has the sanction, not only
Of science, but Of sentiment and Of COM
mon sense. OF science, because physiology
teaches US that between these years we
attain our highst physical DEVELOPMENT.
We enjoy, in this brief span of time,
the very effloresCenCe of our physical
being. And not only that, but these are
the years wherein the imagination is
hveliest and surely no one will deny that
the right time to fall in love is the time
when we have the greatest power for
idealizing the object beloved. II makes
little or no difference whether we have
idealized something quite unworthy-at
least, we have idealized somebody. And
that is lofty and ennobling sentiment.
The youth who marries the maiden he
idealizes, and who later becomes the
father of her children, has jained a
spiritual and moral value that is incal-
culable. The maiden who marries the
youth whom she has idealized. and who
later becomes the mother of his children,
has by that experience ennobled not only
herself and her children, but the race
