Representatives of the Dry Goods Trade Appeal in Vain to the Railroad Pool, Discrimination Must Hxist Agaiust the Ooarser Grades of Domestic Goods, The Steal Clad Loglo of Fink, Special Dispatch to Tun Brx, New York, May 23, —Ropresensa- tives of the dry goods trade in this and other oltles In the east and west appeated to.day before the rallroad commission sitting here, to support the claims made in thelr petition to the commlssion, in which it is stated that the existing olassification ot do- mestic dry goods in the western boond traftic of the trunk lines {s unjast, in- jurlous to business, and should be changed. Io support of these charges it was urged that the classof dry goodsagalnst which the present classitication bears most heavily are matnly cotton goods, of coarser and cheaper grade, and it Is especlally for that class of morchandlse that reclassification was asked. - The rate charged for transportation, it was urged, was out of proportion to the cost of transportation, and ont of proportion to the carried, It was al ters wore first brought to the attention of the executlvecommittee of the trunk lines st the ruggestion of Vice-Presi- dent Blanchard, of the Erle rallroad, and a potition was presented to Fink signed by nearly all repreasntatives of Iarge cotton mills of Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Con- nootlout, Rhode Island, New York and Pennsylvanils, and nearly all ropresentatives of dry goods merchants of New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chioago, St, Louls and other promi- nent oities. In this petition it was represented that the classification of this kind of merchandise was rateed during the war because the goods be- camo 80 valusble as to warrant it; that sheetings worth from $400 to §600 during the war now sell for from $45 to §60 per bale; that these goods, as first class, aro now eubject to higher relative charge on thelr valuo than any other textile fabrie, and are out of all proportion to the staples of the grocery trade. The utlve committee of the trank lines, it was contended, met this pe- tition with absolute refusal. Upon what principles the companies have ontablished thelr classification sche ule the dry goods representatives were unable to understand. Poor Commissioner Albert Fink re- plied that 1i I8 necessary to charge higher rates on certaln articles in or- der that grain and other food products oan be carrled at & rato enabling the farmora to ship to the east and to Kurope. This discrimination ts for the benefit of trade In general and the dry goods trads shares in the benefits, Individual consumers of domestlc dry goeds would benefit 8o little by a re- duction of frolght rates on that class of goods that the difference In cost would be inappreclable, while the re- ductfon would not benefit the trade by oausing an increased demand for thelr goods. Sllks and the higher olass of dry goods bear such relative emall proportion in the bulk and wolght to the amount of dry goods of the lower olacses shipped, that it wonld bae necessary to charge very high rates on them to make up for the redustion on the Jatter. The discrimination must exist, he argued, between sev— W.
