Pooling of Ocean Rates on Cotton
 is Arranged

of therfrom h-Lbc.aafa
 Washington. April 26.-Officials of the Shipping Board today denied that an arrangement had been reach ed for the pooling" of ocean rates on cotton. It was said. however. that certain foreign steamship lines had indica ted their concurrence in an agreement under which rates to trans Atlantic ports would be ' 1-2 cents per hundred pounds less than from South American ports, F 12 cents per hundred pounds less from Nor folk than from Gulf ports and 9 cents per hundred less from North Atlantic ports than from gulf ports.
 Officials of the board refused to say what foreign lines were repre- sented at the executive conferences last week at which cotton rates were discussed, or whether similar agree ments on other commodities were un- der consi iteration.
 Uniformity of rates and prevention of discrimination between ports were the objects sought at the meetings it was said.

THE RAILWAY LABOR BOARD.

President Wilson's railway labor board has been on the job now for some ten days or two weeks and as yet has accomplished very little. The board is hearing the pleas of the four brotherhoods and may ar rive at settlement of the brother hood demands. If it does, it will serve it's purpose. However, the board hasn't attempted to cope with the switchmen's strike. Neither the board nor the brotherhoods seems able to do anything in the so-called "outlow" walkout. There were prom ises when the board was named that it would immediately take up this proposition. Instead of attempting to adjust 1t the board merely refused to hear the outlaw organiza tion, heard the brothcrhoods and the brotherhoods told the strikers to go back to work. The strikers told the brotherhoods to let them alone. And there it stands. It is clearly up to the brotherhoods to get their men in line before they can expect to re- ceive consideration of their demands And it is up to the new board to see that this is done, else there is no excuse for it's existence.

THE PASSING OF A BOSS.

If Roger c. Sullivan never climbed quite so high as his fellow boss of { the opposite party, William Lorimer, he never had so great fall. Both men rose from the lowest ranks. Lorimer climbed to seat in the Senate, from which he was busted af- ter an investigation into the method of his election. Importance, but won place of influence in national Dem- ocrataic politics far above that to which Lorimer could aspire on the Republican side.
 It would be easy to exagggerate the part that Sullivan played at Bal timore in nominating Wilson, but his swinging of the Illinois delegation away from Clark as soon as he could do so without being accused of vio- lating the instructions expressed in the vote at the primaries had more to do with that historic nomination tha nthe similar move by Bryan, up- on which Clark laaid the blame for his defeat. Unlike many another boss beside Lorimer, he died with his power undiminished, appropriately enough with the returns from Tues days primaries coming in and with plans for San Francisco fast matur- ing.
 Every political boss has some dis tinctive quality which may or may not catch the eye of the public, but which advances him m his struggle for domination. Sullivan knew no foe. The report that he had slated his chieif political enemies, ex-Gov. Dunne and ex-Mayor Harrison, for places on the delegation to San Fran cisco reflects a semi-humorous trait in the man. In 1908 Bryan served notice on the Illinois Democratic convention that he would not ac- Eept the support of the Illinois del- ekation unless the convention adopt ed a resolution demanding Suulivan's s retirement from the national com mittee. Sullivan defeated the resolu- tien and then introduced resolu- ton indorsing Bryan, which was passed. So agreeable a display of human nature is irresistible, and it is not surprising that Sullivan re- tained his held upon the Illinois Democracy, although he was unable to win place at Washington along side that other picturesque Demo- crat from Illinois, James Hamilton Lewis.
