British Airship Explodes, Ignites;
 Drops Into Sea

London, July 15.-Wreckage of the British airship NS-11, engaged in mine sweeping operations near Conner was burned last night, and wreck, age was washed ashore at Conner to- day. According to latest reports there were two officers and five men aboard at the time of the disaster.
 The airship exploded and clashed into the sea in flames a half hour after midnight Tuesday morning. Ac- cordlng to eye witnesses of the dis aster, a second explosion took place as the aircraft was falling into the sea, where the mass of wreckage floa- ted on the surface and burned for some hours afterwards.
 There was a heavy thunder storm raging at the time and the supposition IS that the NS-11 was struck by lightning.

SOUTHERN PORTS WILL BE GIVEN
 BETTER RATES
Export Freight Tariffs Will Di. vert Huge Shipments from
 the East.

Washington, July l5.-Readiust- ment of export freight rates to South Atlantic and Gulf ports will be start ed soon by the railroad administra- tlon to permit shipments through those -gateWays on equal terms with New York and the east.
 This assurance was given today by Director of Traffic Chambers, and Di- rector of Public Service Thalen to representatives of the South and Middle West, who appeared to pro- test against the reported intention of the administration to cancel existing export rates which would divert thou sands of tons of freight to the al ready crowded North Atlantic sea board. It was announced after the hearing the railroad administration not only had nc. intention of cancell- ing existing rates, but planned to extend them to cover all the territory from the Mississippi river to the Ohio-Pennsylvania line including Buff falo and Pittsburgh
 In presenting the arguments for competitive export rates, Judge J. Harry Covington, of Washington, and Luther M. Walter, of Chicago, point ed out that under present conditions 1t was necessary to haul empty ap- proXimately two out of every three box cars sent into the South to bring out the tremendous. cotton and other crops produced annually. It was argued even if revenue could not be derived on those cars on the southbound trip, marked economies in operation would result and at the same time congestion in North At a,fio 1No,1ld bo ra1iavaJ

Weight of Bags not to Be Deducted in
 Rough Rice Sales

Beaumont, Tex, Oct. 15.-TEe millers have lost out in their contention that the weight of bags should be deducted in pur. chasing rough rice. They had based their claim on a law pass ed by the Texas legislature to the effect that all cartons, bags. etc, containing food and feed stuff should be stamped with the net weight and sold accord ingly. These bags of rough rice contain approximately 19O pounds, and the bag manufac tured of nine ounce burlap will weigh approximately one pound It was pointed out by the rice farmers that the second hand bag was worth more than the mills paid for it, and they would be willing to Concede deduc. tion if the bags were returned.
 The Southern Rice Growers association took the matter up through their attorneys, Smith and Crawford. who have re ceived the following ruling from E. c. Weinert, commissioner of markets and warehouses:
 l have carefully read the law relating to packages and con- tainers, and l am clearly of the opinion that 1t contains nothing requiring change in the pres ent method of handling unmilled rice. As 1 understand it, the rice as threshed is placed in sacks as a convenient method of handling It in transporting to warehouses and mills. It is only a temporary package for conven fence and expediting transporta tion to the warehouse or mill, and is rarely sold to customers in this package.
 l am of the opinion that the present method of handling rice from the farm to the warehouse, or mill, is not a violation of sec tion s of the law relating to weights and measures, as in this form it is not offered for con sumption either as a food or feed. "
