Til- latter oru.-r wax made three n . aK) is n i. heinK' put intri fffeet. 'Ill,- IH V. :.iHsition is a mrv radical and sue. iiiK one. lU-rv is the situation: The railroad have eomf to the eornmissi.n asking for a live T nt increase in general lreiuht ratfs to .;te them from bankruptcy. The. commission turns ujton tlie raslrr.: ids and says: "Why don't yon coll. t J.'n.iiU'i.ii',!) from the bit; ?-hipprs who are now uin-; all kinds of spfehil favors that the little ship- ! r dors not K-t 7" JlrunoVU lir- ts Work. The eommission has had its ins per' -tors working .mder the direction of Louis I. Kiandis. as attorney f,.r the ronunissjon. and these inspectors have found literally hundreds of ways in which the li fellows Ret services from the railroads which are not aeorded to the little fellows. Ii is not only that this operates as a tremendous drain on the revenues of the iai!i'a(l.. but it l.s one of the things that hjtilils tip k'rt-at monopolies and hijr concentration of apital and business at the expense of the little business ji n. A Kood illustration was found hy the inspectors at the whares of the su.ar trust in Yonkers. Here it was found that the New York fYntral railroad was actually paying back to the National 'l'ar company the expense incurred by that company for loading at the door of the car the sutrar and ven the expenses for "taking the .vusar from the floor of the refinery's shipping t'd". One item of $0,147.17. and another of ?i'jbS.7:: were paiu Jast June. likewise the banana trust eollteted from the New York Central for loaning' its own hananas from its vessels into

ears a sum of 7,4M between June 1, If 12. and June ::u. 1 !1 ::. The beef trust has been eatim up the railroads in a similar way. An inrpeetor chose at random '2 7 cars in the vicinity of the Chicago stock yards and found that railroads received fnr freight s-r ice for their use $ t 0 ." . 1 1 , and Were compelled to pay hack to the Lerf trust for "special services", $207.1 ". or marly 4.". per cent of the total freight revenue. In Chicago the little shipper is at n tremendous disadx antane in comparison with the his shipper where locate, either on the river or on the underground tunnel which connects Vtith the railroads. In hoth cases the railroads practically perform the trucking and loading for these hip shippers, while the small shippers hive to truck and load at their own expense. In the case of one soap (ompany loin business in lloston. it was found the triu kin' item alone would amount to $l.L''o a day. All these speejes of sp. ial pri ilep will come under a genera! order if .fr. Ihamb-is succeeds in his plan as r.ow appears probable. HOLD SUFFRAGE RIOTERS.
