BANKERS MAKE NO COMMENT.
Speyer II Co.'s Com missions Much
Lower Than First Reported.

Speyer & co. made no comment on the
Interstate Commerce Commission report
OH the financing OF the Frisco railway
system.
Those close to the bankers asserted that
the record of the firms relations with
the Frisco, as presented in statistical ex-
hlbits laid before the commission. showed
that there had been no extravagant COM
missions received by the bankers from
the road In sales OF securities. nor had
any "eXtravagant arrangements" as
charged by the commission. existed be-
tween the bankers and the company for
the sale OF the conipany's bonds.
II is said by those in close touch with
the bankers that in the financing OF the
Frisco Spsyer X Co. received no more
than the custOmary banking commissions
Friends Of the Arm at the time of the St
Louis hearing OF the Frisco matter re-
scented the widespread Misrepresentation
OF the size OF the banking commissions in
| the published statement that these COM
missions amounted to S32,000.000. The
report showed yesterday, as the testimony
had given il AT the hearing. that the
bankers commissions amounted to only
! SO, 106,000.
IL was said on behalf OF Speyer 4 Co

NEW HAVEN HEARING
LONG, HOT QUARREL
Barron Of the News Bureau AS
sails W. A. Greene of
Boston "JOurnal."

BosroN. Jan. 26.-The inquiry by the
Public Service Commission INTO tire New
Haven railroads other expenses" was
enllvened to-day by disputes between g
w. Barron, manager Of the Boston News
Bureau. and Commissioner Anderson
Their differences arose over the article
published by the news bureau in which II
was stated that the Massachusetts, Nali-
dating Commission had found the railroad
to have 3lOi 100000 assets In excess OF
liabilities.
Anderson said he thought +, not right
that the New Haven should have paid
$4,000 for copies OF the paper containing
statement that was absolutely false"
Barron said that he thought il was very
bad judgment on the part OF ,he New
Haven to pay 100000 for the valuation
report and then let Brande.s club the
road with certain parts OF H." He asked
II there was statement or figure IA the
rest Of tho story which was untrue,
There are false statements all through
IT," retorted Anderson.
Your statement s absolutely false"
shouted Barron. You have done almost,
as much as Byandeis to damage the New
Haven"
Barron characterized Brandeis as the
"author OF all the sentiment that is dc.
stroying the railroads" He also con-
| tended that Charles sumner Bird was
back OF this investigation because he lent
money 10 the boston JOErHui
Walter 4. Greene, editor and part
owner OF the Journal. denied that Bird
had any financial Interest Ia that paper q.
Bird had never tried to influence the
policy Of the Jonrnai Then Barron asked I:
do you understand that the money
which Mr.. Hale received from Mr. Bird
and put into the journal amounts 10 more
than 81, coo. 900?
Greene obieote., To answering the ques-
ton. So did Attorney Hi. After half
hour wiangle the commission ruled that
Greene need not answer
Has Mr.. Munsey yet been paid the
money he lost In the Jou-naly' asked
Barron. and the reply was:
That's none OF your business"
Barron declared that tho journal was
making the Investigation for circulation
purposes and Commissioner Anderson re-
marked that the commission should not
investigate the Progressive party the
Journal or any other decadent thing"
but should new 10 the line.
sylvester Baxter testified that ne had
received considerable money from the
New Haven for writing articles IN It's
defence and for making Investigations
His articles had been accepted by various
publications. and he believed that Il was
known at the time by the publishers that
he was employed by the New Haven.
He said he had endeaVored 10 get the
New York EUening Post to print the New
Ravens side OF the controVt rsy. hut T.
had refused to do So Barron Interrupted
that this was because "Brandeis got TO the
paper first"

new EXPRESS RATES
TO RETRIEVE LOSSES
Companies Hope Added Business
Will Offset Parcel Post
Competition.
MANY CHARGES ARE LOWER
Increased Shipments Of Food
stuffs Expected After
February 1.

The express companies, which have been
hit by the parcel post, are getting ready
to put into operation on February the
new rates ordered by the Interstate COM
merce Commission.
Offlclals believe that the reduced rates
will be so attractive that there will be
more business and more expense in the
handling. They are urging agents to
make the business rs great as possible.
Increased business. they figure, IL the one
hope to overcome losses by reason OF
parcel post competition and lower rates.
Under the present tariff 1t costs So cents
to send five pound package from New
York to st. Louis. On and after Febru-
AIRY tho cost will be 80 cents. Now IL
costs so cents to ship ten pound package
TO St. Louis The new charge will be
a. cents Other reductions are In pro-
portion.
Express business will be divided into
two general classes. the first ordinary
merchandise shipments and the second
articles OF food and drink. Second class
rates are but 10 per cent. of the rate
On merchandise. Among the foods ex-
copied are candy, liquor, terrap!n aud
turtles and some other things.

The companies hope to build up a big
business in carrying groceries ana 1000
products II now costs so cents to send

Under the new rate the cost will be only
33 cents.
The public. as we'll as the big shippers.

ested in the comparative charges by
express and by parcel post.
Under parcel post II Is now possible
to send a package of fifty pounds 100
miles within the second zone. The maxi
mum weight to other zones. or as far
as !. 500 miles and over, Is twenty pounds
The parcel post Will still have the
advantage over express In cost for small
Packages going short distances.
For instance. n five pound package
going by parcel post from New York to
Boston OF Baltimore costs IA cents. Under
the new schedule the same package car
ried by express will cost "a cents.
