EXPRESS \ COMP / A | |!
REVENUES INADEQUATE
interstate Commerce Com
mission Grants Petition
for Additional Income.

Washington, July 22.-The Inter-
State Commerce Commission, decided
today that the revenues of the prin
cipal express companies Of the United
States are Inadequate and modified
its former orders to provide addi-
tionaI income.
Il The fabric of the present express
rates is composed of three factors:
An allowance of 20 cents for col
lection and delivery of each ship
ment watch does not va ~ with weight
or distance; rail tef4ninal allowance
of Is cents per hundred pounds,
which varies with the weight but
not with. the distance and rail trans
porbation rate per hundred pounds
which varies with the weight. the
distance and the zone.
In accordance with the petition of
the companies, the commission modi-
fled its order TO permit Transports
ton of The first and second factors.
The effect is TO increase the collec-
tion and delivery allowance five cents
for each shipnt ent and to reduce the
rail terminal allowance at the rate
OF one twentieth of cent a pound.
AS the weight increases the five cent
increase is gradually reduced, so that
on shipments of more than 100
pounds the readjustment will not
make any change. Substantially no
commodity, rates will be affected LII
all events any changed rates, will,
with few exceptions, be substantially
lower than those prevailing when the
commission established the zone sys-
TEN in February 1914
BY that means the express COM
panies are expected to increase their
gross revenues about 1856 per cent

Ignorance Of Steps to BE

Il IA r =
Washington. July mo actual
claim for damages on account OF the
Lusitania disaster has vet been filed
with the state department This is
due both to the fact that the question
is bound UP in the exchanges of news
with Germany on submarine warfare
generally and to lack Of knowledge
on the part Of prospective claimants
as to methods Of procedure
Many inquiries. however, have
reached the department. including
one that came today from New York
in behalf Of one Of the passengers
rescued from the Lusitania who wants
damages for loss Of property, incon-5
venience, trouble and danger to
which he was subjected to the blows
ing up of the big liner.
All the prospective claimants have
been advised by the department. as to
the form In which tn claims must be
filed. The German government has
avoided in all its note any reference
TO the question Of damages to the
Lusitania.
No claim has vet been presented in
the case Of tho American steamef
Nesbraskan. for whose damage Ger
