CALUMET REGION
E (Special to Tai Timbb.) Indiana Harbor, Jnd., July J9. Beinnin Aug. the same switching rates that prevail in Chicago will be applied to all cities of the Ca!umt region. This action was taken at an all day session between the railroads and the interstate commerce commission board Qf suspension Monday at which tb,e proposed increase in freight rates on coal into Chicago which was to hav become effective Aug. 1, was knocked out.

Is of vast Importance to all of the cities hereabouts and will affact every in dustry In the region.

J. & E. carries for almost nobody outside its own plants, its Insurgency wll cut little figure. . The Chtcao Trjbyne says regarding the compromise between the railroad which is to prove so beneficial to the Calurnot region: "The compromise was only reached after an all day wrangle in one of tho hardest fought controversies that ha agitated the Chicago roads for a long time. By its terms the six "insurgent" roads, the Alton, Illinois Central, Wabash, Santa Fe, Chicago arid Eastern Illinois, and Monon, that have refuse! to become parties to the new reciprocal switching arrangements, subscribe to the agreement, but with a proviso eliminating the switching rates on grain, which have been the cause of the controversy. Advance Charge on firaln. "The reciprocal agreement provides for the uniform absorption of switching charges by all the roads. All shippers in the Chicago district will enjoy the same rates regardless of their location. The new plan mill go into effect Aug. 1.

Stanhope Easterday is well known in First Church of Christ, Scientist, circles and has visited Lake county on several occasions.
