RAILWAYS WOULD
REFUSE FREIGHT
Ask |. C.. c. for Permission to
Refuse Cargo When No
Steamer Space Reserved

ASSOCIATED Press by q. s. Naval wirelessl
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 7.-All rail
roads with Pacific coast terminals
will this week file with the Interstate
Commerce commission a petition ask
ing authority to refuse shipments for
export for which no cargo space
aboard steamers has been reserved.
The foregoing announcement is in
line with the publication in the Star
Bulletin last week of the decision of
the Southern Pacific railroad to re-
fuse shipments to Hawaii if the ship
pers were unable to guarantee that
space for their cargo had been re-
served on island steamers. IT,
The action of the railroads ia a
desperate attempt to relieve the
freight congestion at San Francisco
where thousands of tons of ocean
cargo is piled up on the wharves and
in the railroad yards awaiting steamer
space. One Interpretation placed on
the stand of the railways is that pre-
ferred shipments will take precedence
and unless a shipper can make ar
rangements with steamship companies
and arrive at definite understand
ing as to whether he will have space
reserved for his consignment his
goods will not go forward.

Burhans believes in cooperation and
declares that what helps Denver helps

every car conductor coming through
Denver to talk stop over; he has a

The first three cops in each direction
from the depot stop everyone who
looks like stranger and tell him that
he has 40 minutes in town and can
get to the park and back in 80 minutes,
and the streetcar conductor has been

company backs him), and tells the.
