CASE
BEING CONSIDERED
BY COMMISSION
Southern Fighting Petition
for Reduction on Coal
From S1.20 to 81
a Ton

Montgomery, June 23.-(Special.) J. Con-
sideration of the coal rate cases was re-
sumed at $50 clock this morning by the
state railroad commission. The taking OF
testimony in the Montgomery case, which
seeks a reduction of 80 cents per ton In
the rate on coal from the Birmingham
district to this city, was completed dur
ing the mornings session, and the Green's
horo case was taken under consideration.
The Greensboro case Is similar to the
Montgomery case, In that a reduction in
rate Is sought. Greensboro is asking that
the rate on coal be reduced from S120 to
81 per ton. The Southern railroad is
fighting the petition.
Following the taking of testimony in
this case. the commission heard testi-
mony in the Decatur coal rate case, which
was brought by the Louisville and Nash
vile Railroad company and the South
ern, and Is a petition for an increase in
the coal rate from the Birmingham dis
trict to that city. The present rate is
SO cents per ton. and the railroads are
seeking to increase the rate to ST.
The Business Mems organization of
Decatur is fighting the railroads petition.
The commission Is considering all OF
the coal rate cases separately. and the
present hearing may continue a day or
two longer. 1t Is not probable that the
commission will reach any decision In the
various cases before the last of the week.

THREATEN TO SEIZE
HAITI CUSTOMHOUSE
France and Germany Warn
Government to Meet FL
nancial Obligations

Washington, June 2S.--News has
reached Washington from unofficial
sources that France and Germany have
warned Haiti that her oustomhiuses
will be seized unless arrangements are
made to meet the outstanding Haitaen
financial obligations.
Secretary Bryan today said no notice
that such a step was contemplated had
come TO the United States from the
European powers, but reports of the
serious situation in tho island republic,
torn within by revolution and besieged
by creditors from without, was the sub
cabinet meeting,
What the attitude of the United
States might be was not indicated, Of
fieials pointed out, however, there was
no treaty or arrangement under which
the United States might assume charge
of Haitien customs as 1t did In the case
of Santo Domingo, 1t also was recalled
that the Washington government did
not object when a British warship sew
eral months ago enforced payment of a
Haitian debt.
There are four American war YES
sells in Haitien waters now, including
the battleship South Carolina. They
have been protecting foreigners In
cities around which government and
rebel forces have been fighting.
The German cruiser Strassburg Is in
Dominican waters. within a few hours
sail of Port-au- Prince.
The Haitien minister here, Ulrich
Duvivier, earnestly protested today
that his country is not a defaulting
debtor and that stories of European in
Prevention find their counterpart in re-
ports in foreign newspapers that the
United States Is contemplating the
same act.
The minister declared the only
debts that could be claimed were So
called indemnities demanded by GER
tain irresponsible foreigners whose ex-
ploitation and law breaking had
brought them to justice.
