Posal 10 reduce the present freight rate
OF Az cents per hundred on plaster.
plasterboard and gypsum or plaster
blocks or tile, in carload lots from Plas-
tereo and Saltville,, Va. to Memphis, to
IL to % cents per hundred pounds
Generaily speaking. there are no ar
rangements now In effect covering dou-
Bile loading, circuitous routing and
back hauling OF carload shipments Of
grain and grain products. and the pres
ent minimum carload weights, unless
continued by proper tariff publications.
will expire by limitation Aug 81, 1920
II Is proposed to continue the present
minimum weights and the present tariff
provisions, or lack of tariff provisions
after Sept T.
1t is proposed to cancel the present
export rate of IS cents per 100 pounds
on shuttle blocks and hickory squares
from Memphis to New Orleans and
Gulfport, La, for export. and apply In
lieu thereof the domestic rate of az
cents per 100 pounds, the sixth class
rate.
Exporters will be interested In the
proposal of the Mobile & Ohio railroad
to, establish dockage charges at Mo
bile, Ala No charge is made for the
use of these docks at Mobile at pres
ent. but an investigation has developed
that other lines are assessing charges
for this privilege at their docks al both
Mobile and New Orleans. The proposed
charges are based upon the charges at
New Orleans and Mobile as published
by the New Orleans board of commits
sioners and the Turner Terminal COM
pany, of Mobile
No charge ie ppur f1ada fnr icin1
icing. refrigeration, warm service. or
protective service against cold, on less
than carload shipments OF perishable
freight at points in Southern territory,
but 1t is proposed 30 assess charges for
this service as outlined in section of
Agent J. f. Fairbanks ICC No. g.
In another case it is proposed to ad-
vance the stated charges for ice used
in icing carload shipments of perishable
freight at points on the Mississippi river
and Hubert Ark, and Nonconnah,
Tenn, Cairo and Mounds, H., and other
crossings or gateways OIL the Ohio and
Potomac rivers and at Virginia cities.
The proposed charge is IS cents per net
ton.
More local shippers will probably be
affected by the proposal to increase the
reconsignment charges than any other
matter docketed for Monday. Where
the present charge is now 81 it is pro-
such charge is to be made 50 so; where
1t is now IS an advance to $3.50 Is pro-
posed 1t is likewise proposed to elimi-
nate from all lines tariffs provisions
authorizing reverse of. back hauls on
basis of through rate where such re-
reconsignment or diversion rules.
Altogether there are 100 cases dock
eted for the hearing but only about a
dozen proposals affect local shippers.

two MEN AND WOMAN
KILLED AT BELFAST
City Quiet After Night of Sim
Fem Unionist Rioting.

BELFAST Ireland, July 22.-Belfast
this morning was quiet after a night
OF sanguinary fighting between Sim
Fein and unionist mobs, but the situa-
ton was tense and the military with
armored cars were patrolling the ar.
fected areas. Rain was falling and it
was hoped this would prove a deterrent
to further rioting
Casualties thus far recorded are two
men and one woman killed and 20 per
sons treated at hospitals for gunshot
wounds. Many wounded did not report
to hospitals. Fifty-four arrests were
made.
The primary cause of the Trouble is
believed to be the recent murder Of
Col Smyth in Cork, as many men en-
ployed at Belfast come from cambridge,
which was Smyth's native town.
This morning the workers returned
to the shipyards as though nothing had
happened. although the trouble was
started in the yards yesterday after
a number of Sim Fein employees had
been attacked. The authorities believe
they have the situation In hand.
