NEW RA|L-WATER
 RATE PERMITTED
Apply on Florence and Shelf field Iron of SIoss- Sheffield
 Company

While the interstate commerce commission suspended for further hearing the lower rates on pig Iron from Birmingham to St. Louis, Gin cinpati and Louisville proposed to be put in effect September 1 by southern carriers, it has allowed the lower rail and water rates on the Sheffield and Florence iron of the Sloss-Shef field Steel and Iron company to St. Louis, Chicago and northwestern points proposed by the Arrow Trans portation company in conjunction with the Burlington railroad.
 The new rail and water rates went into effect Friday and are as follows: To St. Louis S3.28, vs. former rate of s3.S5; to Chicago $4.1S, vs. former rate of $4.09. The Arrow Transpor- tation company takes the iron up the Tennessee river to Metropolis in barges and the Burlington carries 1t 10 inland destinations.
 The new rates were protested by St. Louis furnace interests. but the commission turned down the protest.
 The proposed lower rail rates will come up for further hearing next month. They are as follows; To Cincinnati $3.53, vs. present rate Of s4.G5: to Louisville s3.24, vs. present rato of $3.71; to St. Louis s4.24. vs. present rate of $5.17.
 Iron Going Up Now
 The Sloss- Sheffield will take im- mediate advantage of the lower rates this week. It will begin the loading of 2,00o tons of iron on barEes at Sheffield and Florence next Monday The company can move about 5000 tons of this iron by this route per month, to the middle ana far west This facility has helped out considerably during a period or car shortage, which still greatly hampers rail movements.
 It is deemed probable that other western roads will follow the ex- ample of the Burlington in establish ing joint rates with the Arrow Trans- portation company, thus opening ad- 6itlonal iron markets to Alaoa ma iron gotten on the lower rail ana water rates.
