the same position today shat the.
would be if the all-rail carriers had
in effect a system of competitive rates
meeting the water carriers rates and
such rates were not applied as maxi
mum at intermediate points.
But while the intermountain and
middle wes1 shippers gain nothing by
the exclusion of the rail carriers from
this business. the rail carriers them
selves lose heavily. There is no COM
plant from the interior territory of
the present rates of the water lines
from Atlantic to Pacific coast ports.
Were the rail carriers to meet the
water carriers rates at Pacific coast
ports the present rate relationships of
intermediate points to such Pacific
coast ports would not be changed.
cannot see what is to be gained by
the Intern ediate territory if its OBJ
lection prevents the all-rail carriers
from meeting the rates of the water

to the same Pacific coast ports re-
Eardless of the rate ADJUSTMENT of the
transcontinental railroads.
Need of Wcstbound Traffic.
There is practically no departure
from the long and short haul except
on sugar from California to Chicago
and wool and dried hides from the
Pacific coast terminals to eastern ter
tfonship of rates. The territory east
of the Mississippi river and north of
the Ohio produces the great bulk of
the westbound tonnage destined to the
Pacific coast. The movement of traf-
fic eastward across the Mississippi
river is much heavier than the move
n.ent westward. There is always need
of additional westbound traffic for
loading of refrigerator cars. The lum-
Der traffic. even under normal condi-
tons, requires a large empty move
ment of box cars westward. There
are now owned by transcontinental
lines and in service for handling per-
ishable food products from points in
Pacific coast territory approximately
SO, 900 refrigerator cars.
1.-THE character of freight generally
moving westward is desira BILE for load
ing into returning refrigerator cars.
and it causes the minimum damage to
the car. There is at best under nor
NAL conditions a large empty west
bound movement of refrigerator cars,
SO that whatever increases the load
ing westbound contributes Just that
much to the net earnings of the trans
contin entail carriers"
Mr.. Chambers expressed the opinion
that the rates of water carriers in
coast-to- coast traffic should be under
the jurisdiction of the interstate COM
merce commission. He said: eff this
were done the commission would pre-
scribe reasonable rates for water serv-
ice which would be stable and at a
figure that would enable a regular, !
dependable opera ton or steamship !
lines, and avoid the disturbance and /
decentralization caused by what is
known as the tramp ship, which often |
offers rates for cargo at almost any
figure above the handling and cost. |
and usually takes one cargo without |
any intention Of ever returning to |
operate in regular service. The public /
gets no benefit from fluctuation in /
water rates caused by such competi-
ton"

Federal Judges Take "Check-
o" System Under Amusement.
Appealed to Higher Authority
FpOm Indianapolis Court.

Chicago, Nov. 17.-Judges AL
schuler, Baker and Evans, of the
United States circuit court of appeals,
today have under Amusement the
question of the legality of the check
off, system of collecting dues and as
sessment from union miners in the
coal fields. An early decision is ex-
pected.
Pending the decision, the temporary
injunction suspending the decision of
Judge Anderson at Indianapolis which
ordered the "checkoff' system abol-
ished, is in effect.
The judges of the circuit court took
the case under advisement after a
hearing that lasted all dayNyesterday.
Sixty-two West Virginia operators
were represented by Attorney A. M
Beicher, who contended that the set
ting aside of Judge Anderson's ruling
would result in a renewal of violence
in the West Virginia fields. William
A. Glasgow, counsel for the union,
limited that a strike is certain if Judge
Anderson's ruling is made permanent.
