w Hearings that have been
conducted by the Interstate Com

weeks on the application of the
railroads Of the country for per-
mission to increase freight rates
eighteen per cent were closed yes
terday. 1t was announced that
eighteen days will be takn to con-
slider the testimony which was ad-
duced at these hearings.
Proposed increases in freight
rates would, if allowed, increase
the revenues of the railroads $780,
100000 annually. Besides this
there are proposed increases in
demurrage charges OF one hundred
per cent over the, rate in effect
prior to December /, last, when
emergency rates were prescribed
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. The rate in effect May
i, was 81 the first day for a car

rival at its destination and there
after S. day. The emergency
rates were 81 for the first day, 81
for the second, So for the third.
81 for the fourth and S. for each
day thereafter.
Common carriers base their
contentious for the higher freight
rates on the statement that wages
are higher and the eight-hour law
has still further added to the cost
OF labor, that there is an emer-
genCy that must be met and the
meeting Of it will be costly to the
transportation companies, mate
rails are higher and the cost OF

east Of Messines, and last night

German trench line into more

ACQUISITION OF
 HEALTH DEPT. IS GIVEN A HEARING
Sigmund Loewith Says New Haven Board Uses Less
 Than Bridgeport's.

The proposed collection of ashes un- der the supervision of the board o1 health at an annual cost of at least s90 OOO was one of the items discussed last night during the consideration oy the board of apportionment : of the budget for next year.
 The difference in the cost of main taining the health department of this city and maintaining that in New Haven was also discussed. William l.. Zepp appeared for the health board. The board asks for $73O36 to meet regular expenses while $448,600 is asked for specials Of the latter the cost of an isolotion hospital $2O0, 900, and of welfare building, s15o,OO0, is expected to be met by bond issue.
 Commissioner Sigmund Loewith said it costs the city of New Haven just $40,2O5 for its\ health department and he produced a copy of the budget of that city to substantiate his state ment. .
 Dr. w. H. Brown explained that in cities where ashes are collected some times the contract is let out to a pri- ,vate individual like the garbage con- tract is here, but best results are ob- tained where the collection in made under the direction of some city de- partment responsible for the work. It is customary for citizens where the collections are made to place their ash cans in a convenient place for the col. lectors. If this is not done the land lord is compelled to pay the cost of removal.
 In the specials of the health board are five school nurses for. the paro- chial schools at $500 per year; $2,000 for the nurseries; and $1,500 for a sur- vey to be made of the city in order to make better regulations to insure health.
 It will require $7450O to motorize the Bridgeport fire department and this will be money we'll spent according to John H, Tague, who appeared before the appprtionment board last night. The commissioners are also asking $4, 900 this year for hdril1 tower equip ment to be erected at the No. engine house in Middle street. For the so- called regular" expenses the fire board asks s325,545 as against $24S,- 334.79 last year.
