nations at war also want furs for the

result is greater demand than has

sharp advance in price from former
figures.
While the prices will be better than
before this season, they will not be as
high as in other years when raw furs
were in great demand for manufacture
Ing high priced ladies' fur sets. At the

opened for disposing OF quantities Of

Washington, Jan. 4.-Public hear
ings on freight rate increases propos-
ed by railroads west of tie Mississip-
pi river will begin in Chicago Febru-
ary Is, and will be conducted by In
terstate Commerce Commissioner
Daniels.
The hearings will marx the begin
ming in public of an important rate
case essentially different from the re-
cent eastern case, in that the western
roads are not asking for a horizontal
increase in all rates, but an increase
based upon traffic conditions and upon
the movements of individual classes
and commodities.
Some of the advances proposed ag-
gregate as much as 80 per cent, while
others amount to only or per cent
On some kinds of traffic no increases
have been proposed.
1t is understood the western roads
have endeavored to revise their rates
so as not to bear too hard on the gen.
eral shipper.
All the tariffs submitted by the
western roads have been suspended by
the commission. Protests, particular
ly from the railroad commissions Of
the western states, have been filed
with the commission and concerted
action by the state commissions will
be taken in opposition to the iDcreas-
es.
1t was announced that February IS,
16, II and 18 would be devoted "to the
presentation of evidence from respond.
ents supporting in general their claim
for increased rates, but not including
evidence in support of increase of par
ucular rates. Beginning Monday
March 15, opportunity will be given
for the presentation OF evidence in re-
buttal Of such general testimony"
