Austin Texas July 14 The railroad
commission hearings postponed Inst week
on account ot tho Brazos flood came ott
on time today
In tho matter of class ratings on ver-
micelli Italian paste etc nono of the
railroad representatives or freight bureau
commissioners present cared to be heard
and the matter was taken under advise-
ment
The next question considered was that
of rates on cotton seed products from
common points to Galveston complaint
having been made by certain Galveston
ship brokers to tho effect that the rates
to New Orleans aro discriminatory and do
not preserve a fair differential ln favor of
Galveston
Tho complainants wero not represented
and Judge Freenfan for tho Texas and
Pacific stated that the rato complained
of was purely an export rate and that the
manufacturers of cottbn seed products in
the State did not want it taken out It
Is to the Interest of tho Toxas manufac-
turers of cotton oil meal etc Judge
Freeman Insisted that the parity between
Galveston and New Orleans bo main
tained In the matter of cotton seed prod
uct rates which was done without giving
New Orleans any advantage over Galves
ton In support of his contention he read
letters from the different oil mills In tho
State which without exception asked that
the existing tariff be not disturbed
Traffio Manager Beln of the Southern
Pacific agreed with Judge Freeman and
submitted figures showing that Galveston
Is not at a disadvantage In the mitter
under existing tariffs and that it gets
Its full share of the business
General Freight Agent Allen ot the
Knty said that Mr Zelgler the complalu
ant ln this instance was neither a manu
facturer of nor a dealer in cotton seed
moving through Galveston Mr Allen as
serted that It was baseless He read a
letter from oil mills ln which It was
Ehown that owing to favorable ocean rates
at Galveston they wero enabled to do
much satisfactory business thero os
against New Orleans and Mobile
Mr Johnson of the Gulf Colorado and
Santa Fe freight department stated that
under the present adjustment Galveston
is fully protected and that he had been
unable to discover where under it anj
business bad been lost to the lines ter-
minating there
President Allison of the Cotton Seed
Crusher association stated that the pte
valllng rates were satisfactory to the oil
mills which moved Chairman Reagan to
remark that thero was no uso consum
ing further time with tho subject In hand
as tho testimony was all one way and it
was evident that the parties most con
corned had no complaint to make against
tho rates under discussion
The next matter taken up was that ot
the necessity of promulgating a regula-
tion permitting or requiring all lined
reaching Galveston to absorb the wharf
cbargo of 5 cents per barrel on cement
forwarded from Galveston to points ln
Texas A letter from Zelclcr ship broker
was read alleging that Galveston is being
discriminated against in favor of Now
Orleans ln tho Importation of cement and
claiming that Galveston Is entitled to a
differential of 5J 4 cents under Now Or
leanh thereon
A letter from Parr Co was also read
claiming that under existing conditions
Galveston Is at a disadvantage ln han-
dling cement
Mr Johnson of the Santa Fe Btatod bis
line bad found It necessary to absorb the
wharfage on cement to equalize with New
Orleans Unless tho New Orleans lines
should agree to add the Galveston wharf
age charge to tbo New Orleans rato It
would be necessary to permit the Gal-
veston lines to absorb the wharfage
Judge Freeman of tho Texas and
Pacific thought the time had como for
a stop ln this continual demand ot
Galveston for a differential against
the earth Galvestons pleas reminded
him of the Dutch method of fattening
geese Tho geese are nailed to a
plank and stuffed with soft food until
their livers aro enlarged Galveston
bad nailed her feet to a plank and was
waiting for the commission to feed It
soft food It did not want solid food
because tho effort to chew and digest
It would be too great Why doesnt
Galveston bustle like Houston asked
tho Judge Why does t continually
whlno about Its disadvantage Why
does It bellyache so much Instead
of going to work If the Galveston
people would work more and complain
less about Its natural disabilities Its
representatives wouldnt wear euch
lopg faces every time they show up
before tho commission Thoy would
step around lively Instead of moving
as It leading a funeral pjocesslon
With the most magnificent beach on
earth Galveston he said did not even
have a hotel to entertain visitors
Cornbread and curd at high prices 1
the best the stranger gets In the only
seaport he asserted with all of its
opportunities to accommodate the
seeker after recreation If Houston
bad that beach would It sit down and
whine for some one to build a hotol
thero for Us people and their guest
Has Houston waited for the outside
to push It along
iMake Galveston go to work ex-
claimed the iudgo In conclusion Put
a stop to this eternal cry for help and
that town will maybe amount to
something after awhile

Great Northern Insist that It Is nees

HOUSTON DAILY POST SATURDAY MORNING JULY 15 1899
ary that tho Galvtston lne b per-
mitted to absorb the wharfage on cement
to enable thrm to hold tholr own with the
Now Orleans lines
Mr Biln of tho Southern Pacific insist-
ed that iho proposition was simply one of
through rates from Initial point In Eu-
rope as against tho local concentration
at Galveston
As a solution for the difficulty Mr
Johnson of the Santa Fo stiggostcd that
on shipments going Into storo the present
rate from each point be observed tho
Galveston lines to absorb uo wharfage On
through shipments the minimum propor-
tion from Gahcslon to be 25 cents and
the minimum from Westwego Gretna and
New Orleans to bo 26U cents This was
accepted as satisfactory by the Katy tho
Southern Pacific the International and
Great Northern and others and It was
agreed that the proposition should be-
come effective
The above having been satisfactorily
disposed of tho application of tho Cot
ton Belt tho Southern raclflc and the
International and Great Northern for a
revocation of tho crude and fuel petroleum
tariff was taken up and Mr Beln ot tho
Southern Pacific asserted that since the
erection of a refinery at Corslcana but
little crude oil has moved The refined
oil rato of 25 cents Is low enough he as
serted and ho did not from a revenuo
standpoint see any necessity for a r to
lower on crude petroleum than the rato
on refined petroleum Nyhen he nppllod
for the revocation ot tho crude petroloum
rato ho did not llavo In mind tho crip
pling of tho refinery at Uousto he de-
clared Had heard that tho Standard Oil
company controlled tho Corslcana ro
flnery Tho Houston refinery could not
operate wHh the difference between crude
and refined potroloum rates wiped out
but be did not think It logical that re-
fineries should bo located anywhere but
in the oil fields
Mr Farrcll of the Cotton Belt agreed
with Mr Beln and assorted that the man-
ager of the Corslcana refinery had Indig-
nantly denied to him that he was con
trolled by tho Standard Oil company
Mr Allen of tho Knty wanted all oil
rates Increased and suggested that there
was a necessity for tho classification of
oils t0 keep tho roads from being taken
advantage of
Mr Turner of the International and
Great Northern Could not understand how
a refinery could bo operated at Houston
In competition withone at Corslcanax In
his oplpion tho next thing in order would
be a demand for a milling In transit rate
on oil
Iteces3 to 2 p m
After recess President Klrby of this
Southwestern Oil company ot Houston
argued that It the crude petroleum rate
was withdrawn It would have a tendency
to turn the oil reflntng business of tho
State over to the Standard Oil company
The rale on crude oil had been entirely
satisfactory to tho railroads until a re-
finery was projected at Houston From a
revenue standpoint the crude oil was com-
pensatory to the railroads It had been
put ln at their request nnd had developed
business for them But the starting ot a
products and represented no one but him1 refinery at Houston had made somebody
self Zelgler Is a ship broker and Allen mad and now the commission was asked
did not think that tho commission should to take out a tariff which would enable
change tho rates at his request when the said refinery to operate Until it can be
shippers manufacturers and railroads are shown that the railroads are losing money
satisfied with them As to tho allegei under the existing rate jir Klrby saw
tion that but little oil meal or cake isno necessity for taking up the commis
rates was taken up
sions time further with this matter
Mr Johnson of tho Santa Fe favored
the abrogation of the crndo rate because
if the oil 1b refined at Houston his road
will not get to haul any of the refined
product consumed In Houston Would
rather get to haul refined oil for Hous-
ton and Galveston from St Louis and Coi
slcana than to have it manufactured ln
Houston
Mr Bonner of the Southwestern Oil
company said that tho purpose of the ap-
plication was to dlscourogo the establish-
ment of independent refineries In Texas
If tho Houston refinery should prove a
success other refineries would bo started
at other points in competition with the
Standard Oil company Before It became
known that the Southwestern was soing
into business crude oil was selling at
Corslcana at 50 cents ner barrel as soon
as Its plans wcie made public oil went up
to CO and 75 cents per barrel
The all matter was taken under advise-
ment
Tho proposition to mako emergency re-
ductions in class rates lumber rates cat
tle rates etc on lines cutting interstate
General Freight Agent McCabo of tho
Rock Island referring to certain chaigC3
that his line was responsible for tho re-
cent cut In tho rate on cotton ties from
Chicago and bad contracted with the Illi-
nois Steel company to demoralize said
rate denied the allegation and producod
correspondence to the effect that the rate
had first been mrripulatcd through New
Orleans and alleged that the rate from
Pittsburg had first been cut He also rsad
a telegram from tho frylgbt der > irtm > nt
of tho Chicago fiork Islani anr Pacific
authorizing him to emphatically state that
there was positive tjvldeflce mat one ol
the lines which bad announced to the
commission that it would not protect the
42 cent rato from Chicago was In fact
soliciting business on that basis Ho also
produced statistics to show that his lino
bail carried but a small percentage of the
ties coming into Texas in the past three
months Could not name tbo roads that
had secretly manipulated tho tie rate
Knew that It had been however
At this point Judge Reagan interjected
the following Thats tbo trouble tho
railroads will never tell on one another
Mr Beln of tho Southern Pacific read a
statement to the effect that ho had received
positive information that one ot bis com
petltors would participate in the 42cent
tlo rato published by the Rock Island
hence the course pursued by himself ln the
nutter of reducing tho rato through New
Orleans He denied emphatically also
that ho was In any way responsible for the
demoralization of tho tie rate had reduced
It only on Information that tho Rock
Island was Joined by another Texas line
In tbo 42cont rate from Chicago Did not
name which line it was Insisted that bis
action had been taken In order to maintain
tho parity between Texas distributing
points Claimed that the question before
the commission was one affecting dlstrlbu
tion and not manufacturing points and
that the rallroada should be complimented
for having placed the former on an equal
footing in tho matter of ties Instead of
punished for having dono so Asserted
that so far as ho knew no road In Texas
owed allegiance to any outside agency
In tbo making ot Interstate rates and
said that if the commission would help
the roads establish a bureau Inside tbe
State they would absolutely control in-
terstate rates Contended that any re-
duction In tbe rate on bagging and tics In
mixed carloads to offset tbe reduction in
tho carload tie rate would inure almost en-
tirely to tbe benefit ot outside distrib
uters who be felt satisfied right now
bad large consignments of this stuff at
the State line awaiting the commissions
action before moving It Into the State
Insisted that emergency reductions on any
particular line would only have tbe effect
of giving the line on which tbey were
made all the business
At tbe conclusion of Mr Belna remarks
McCabe of the Rock Jsland stated that ft
the representatives W the roads present
wero agreeable he would wjre tie j
Island and Pacific people at Chicago to
furnish the commission the name of the
otber lines besides tbe Southern Pacific
which bad agreed to participate In the
42cent rate from Chicago Everybody be

M Monaorrato vice president and
punish tho Texas lines in this case would

had Information to the effect that the bag-
ging rate Is being manipulated through St
Louis and that a late of 35 cents from
that point to Texas would soon be put ln
and furnished tho rornmlssloji with n let-
ter from certain St Louis jobbers to back-
up his assertion
Messrs Brlnm and Stcere of San Antonio
complained that outside Jobbers are dis-
tributing less than carload shipments of
groceries lu Texas at less than carload
rates Special complaint was made ngalnst
the Hock Island which was charged with
having doubled the number ot articles ln
the pickle lino It is mixing In cars Mc
Cabo alleged that this had to be done to
protect points on Its lno against St Louis
Tho Southern Pacific announced that It
would not participate in this and tbo meet-

to help It In the pnmlsc3
Mr Lovctt of tho Southern Pnclflc In-
sisted that his lino had not been guilty
ot rate manipulation in reference to the
cotton tie rile It hud openly und legally
advertised Its participation in the 42eeat
rate from Chicago and should be com-
mended instead of punished for having
dono so Tho rate was a legnl ouo and
It it had been brought about by manipula-
tion tho Southern Pacific was not responsi-
ble for said manipulation It had not
brought about the conditions which forced
tho rate It had simply met them He In-
sisted that It would be absurd to say that
the drat lino publishing reduced Interstate
I rates cut them No Hue ho claimed pub

has good grounds to believe that some
