tsy MORNING JOURNAL SPECIAL LEASED wi@sl
Washington, Aug. 13.--An in
crease of 1875 per cent in express
rates was authorized today by the
interstate Commerce commission.
Request Of the American Rail
way Express company for increases
averaging 25,1 per cent were found
not justified by the commission,
with the exception that rates on
milk and cream may be equalized
with those eontemporaneousl ap-
piled by railroad lines between the
same points. ''.'.- .--.
The 1875 per cent increase does
not take into consideration, the in
crease in wages of approximately
$4,000, 600 a year recently award
ed by the railroad board.
The commission said no adequate
basis had been found to support
the request OF shippers for the ex-
ception of certain commodities from
the application of increased rates
The commission held that a pre-
scrlption of terminal to terminal"
rates apply to the obsence of pick
up and delivery service, or deduc-
tions from the published rates
where either service Is not rem
dered, was not warranted
The increased rates may be made

from the inner office and an
nounced that by order of the dis
trict attorney no payments on
notes would be made "for three

this announcement was erroneous
as far as mention of the district

the company had decided to sus-
pend payments temporarily on ad.

cries from the waiting crowd.

them demanded.
There was rush toward the in
fier office. Guards struggled to
keep the people back. Threats wera
made against Brlghtwell.
