|. {. {. BANS CHARGE
FOR CAR SPOTT|NG'
Hands Down Decision Which Is
important to Railroads and
Industries in General.

The railroads Of the country cannot
make a special charge for car spot
ting" or the placing OF cars on the
sidings or plant tracks Of industrial
plants under a decision by the lhter-
state Commerce Commission today.
BY tariffs filed with the commission.
all of the railroads of Central Freight
Association and trunk line territory
sought to make a charge Of 511 cents
per ton, or a minimum of 81 a car, To-
the placing of "empties' at particular
spots on sidings or - mt tracks. and
for the moving Of loaded cars from
such tracks.
Such charge the commission finds -
unjustifed. and its decision is of far
reaching importance to every class of
the charge would mean big increase
in rates on carload shipments, ana con-
sequent increased revenue for the car
riers.
posed charge would apply in many
cases to services covered by the line
haul rate, which includes delivery OF
car to an unloading point, and
further that to impose the addi-
tional charge upon the industries
not upon other industries for whic ch
; line services are performed would
result in unjust discrimination.
! The commission holds. however
| that the line haul rate covers only
one placement OF a car upon an in
| dustry track for loading or unload
ing. and an additional charge shoult
be made for each additional place
ment of car for that purpose. as al
so for the movement of cars from
place to place within the plant during
the processes OF manufacture.
Commissioner Harlan dissented from
the majority opinion and will file hi
report later.
The commission says 1t would b

London Times Sees End of
Negotiations With Kaiser

LONDON, July l2.-In an editorial on
Germany's reply to the American note
the Times says:
The note Is a compound of evasion.
misstatement and erfrontery such as
only Teutonic diplomacy could have
brewed, and is not likely to ease the
tension between the two countries. The
assurances twice demanded by the
United Staes are not even mentioned
The note neither promises nor refuses
financial reparation for the loss OF
American lives and neither agrees nor
declines to furnish assurances that
similar outrages will not be perpetrated
in the future. The matter Is apparently
beneath Germa ny's august notice.
The solemn representatives OF the
United States Government are treated
issue remains as 1t was. The Germans
have not attempted to meet II. nor are
they likely to. Their offer OF means
whereby the Americans may purchase
immunity on the seas Is simply an at
tempt to induce America to connive at
the illegal and inhuman practices OF the
German admiralty.
THE time is clearly coming when
diplomatic negotiations and remon-
strances must give way to some more
positive method of asserting American
rights, unless. indeed. the President de-
cides to recede altogether from his
which President Wilson and his advisers
meet this crisis will depend to very
large degree the Judgment Of the world
