RATES AND DISCRIMINATIO They Receive a Hearing From tho Interstate Commissioners. IOWANS IN ATTENDANCE. Omala Poorly Represented, and the Other Side of the River Does the Greatest Amount of Talking. Interstate Commisasioners. Messrs. Morrison and Veasey of the interstate commerce _ commission held a short session in the equity chamber of the Umted States court. ‘fhey heard statoments from a nuin- ber of Omaha merchants and half a dozen lowa shippers on the subject of rates in and out of the city and through that state. Among those present were General Mana- ger Holdrege, General Attorney Green and General Ureight Agent Crossby of the B. & M.; Assistant General Trafic Manager Munroe, General Freight Agent Tebbets ang Attorney Kelley, of the Union Pacitic; General Solicitor John B. Hawley, Genersl Manager Burt, General bt Agent Morelouse of the Fremont, Elkiorn & Mis- souri Valley; W. Pitt Robinson of the St. Joe & Grand Isiana; Spencer Smith of the railroad commission; L. M. C. Logan, tent and . B. Babcock, secretary of orttiwestern Towa grain and stock shippers’ association; H. O. Seif- fort of Corning and J. D, McPhe rson of Oakland; Messrs. Gilierson, Garber and Gilchrist of the Nebraska state board of transportatios . Weller, chair- man of the Omaha commercial club; Buclid Martin, W. N. Nason, secretary of the board of trade, Edward Peck, S, B. Brady and others. Euclia Martin, who Is in the implement business, professed to bo acquainted with the rates of transportation generally, but was not acquainted with those on grain in and out of Omaha. He was satisfied, though, that thoy were lower now than ever before. They aro reasouably stable in both direc- tions and, so far as he knew, were main- s s last answer came in reply to Mr. Mor- rison's inquiry as to whether or not some shippers got better rates than others. *“'Once the jobbers here complained that the rates out were relatively hizher than into Omaha, but that has been chauged o that the two rates approximate more nearly 1o the sum of the through rate than form- erly,” suid Mr. Martin. Mr. Smith of the lowa board wanted to ask one question about the sum of the two Iocals being the same as_the through rate, He asked whether Mr. Martin meant that they stould be literally the same. hoy should practically correspond,” re- plied Mr. Martin, ‘‘though there should bo a differcntial to pay the costof breaking buik.” “Our customers,” said Mr. Brady of Me- Cord, Brady & Co., “are scattered ail over the west. I am a member of the Omahu Commercial association, the object of which i% to sec that Omaha has a fair advantage in the matter of rates. Within the last tireo months we have been placed on more of an equal footing with our castern competitors 80 that now there ave no more complaiuts. A reduction of 30 per cent on outzoing ship- inents was recer made by the railronds, in copsequence of which we are quite well satisfled. he examination progressed slowly. These two geutlemen were tue only people Omaha produced. Rather than close with such a weager showing, the commissioners concluded to branch out a little and hear from Iowa com- plainants. They called Mr. Logan and cate- chized him as to the tarift on grain. Mir. Logan 18 an old stock and grain raiser. He stated that the rate from his town, River Sioux, or grain was 20 cents to Chi cago, and, if billed through to New Yorik, 13 cents to Bast Clinton, It is the same from Omaha forty-five miles further west A few years ago, before the interstate com- merce law wentiuto effeet, the price was cents from his town and lower from the souri river powts, This discrimination had been removed. The trouble now was that tho river towns got n cheaper rate east by way of St. Paul and St. Louis than he could get, by 5 cents a hvndred, by way of Clucago. This,”” continued Mr. Logan, “is a dis- crimination against us. Al we wunt 18 o [air show with the bal- ance of the world. There are times lin battor prices are paid at St. Paol and . Louis than at Chicago, but this 5 cents differeuce in the rates prevents us getting the advantage of that price. “Are you farmer enough, Mr, give an estimate of how much corn can raised to the acre over in your section “Well, [ don't know.” *We want to ascertain from you what it ©€0sts to raise corn ¢’ +' should think ubout 15 cents a bushel.” Do you know?” ‘“Well,vhe renter of flrmludcnn t raise’corn for less than 10 or 13 cents a bushel.” “‘There is someting somewhero, as you v, Mr. Logan, about the laborer and his hire. That has no reference, however, to any ono on the interstate commerce comis- sion, Now, when we ask these railroad men for a stutement of what it costs them to transport grain they introduce a great many elemonts -the cost of building and equipping their rouds, of the wear and tear as well as many other things. We want to ascertain what it costs to raise a bushel of grain, corn, and oll the elements that o to make up that cost. Can you give it to usi” “Not without consuitiog my books." He was asked to do that at his leisura and sond Lis report on to the commissioners at Washington. His further examination was devoted to a discussion of the rates on cattle, movement of corn to market and that bugbear bridge tolls on both the Missouri and Mississippi rivers “For eastbot rate is across Logan to be nstance,” saia one, “take the rato 1f we bill to Clinton proper our ents, but when East Clinton, just 0 Mississippi, is named we are com- polied to pay 15 cents, which s owing to the fact that these bridges are owned by separate. corporations. ‘These tolls force us to pay a higher rate when we are nearerthe warket thau people west of us." Mr. Hawley took a hand at this point and ross interrogated Mr. Logan. he rate on cora as compared with what wa get for it 18 too high,” declared tho lat- ter. “lhe rouds, though, are not alto- gether to blame.” In his repetition of the original stwry he admitted that the burden of his complaint w alnst the Sioux City & Pacitic road, which carries corn to Chi- cago from Wisnoer. Neb., nearly one hundred miles west of his home, cheaper than it -oes from whore he live anoral Manager Holdrege asked Mr. Togan whether he was willing to seo the railrondas ecarn enough over their cost to do a little improving, ma.ntain the proverty and keep themselves on @ respectable running Lasist e you round, sir are treading on dangerous ‘The reason | say 80 18 that the peoplo of lowa are ready to shoulder thmr maskets, if necessary, and seo that they earn u faic compensation for their work.” When they are barely earning enough to pay the iterest cost of their construction do )uu think they ought to reduge the rate on Ile was |wn ctly willing to have the roads earn a fair dividend but wauted them to be illing that everybody else should do the itroversy promised to drift into such & tiresome one that the commissioners cut it off by declaring that they had nothing to do with state legisiatures and did not wish tu gt nuxed up in that subject. AMr. Baocock, the secretary of Mr. Logan's associution, produced & map which he fthoughit would explain more cleariy than any verbal statemen. the rates on corn, “Wo come to the Missiseippi river, “with & rate of 0 cents per 100 on corn, ross the river seven miles; thon it ad- Ces 1 conts Lo seven miles on corn and 3 .conts on wheat.

Now, the burden of our complaint is that for the next 400 miles west in Nebrasks the advance is but 5 cents, and if they can haul 400 miles for 5 cents in Nebraska they can do the same Ja lowa." Inother words, Mr. Babcocks holds that distance 1s an important factor iu the basing of rates. H. O. Seiffort, another Tows man, also joined the attack made by his colleagues on Nevraska. He said they were not particu- larly dissatistied with what it costs them to ship their grain, but believed the same rate given them forty miles cast of the Missouri river should not prevail from Omaha, Lin- coln and other Nebraska points forty miles west of the river, Mr. Seiffort is placed at somethinzof adis- advantage because of the fact that he lives on a branch of the road. He went to Chi- ago and mado complaint to the railroad men and since then the rato has been lowered. H:rnl others spoke on the subject. . A, McPherson was another lowan who xol ‘in tus statement. Mr. McPherson re- sides at Oakland. His rates now are a trifls lower than thoy were when he commenced feeding and shipping. ~Before the interstate law took effect he paid acarto Chicago. Now, by the Lhundred, at 25 cents, it costs him about ). The poiut raised by him, was that the Rock Island road is shipving from Kansas City to Chicago at 13'§ cents, whilo he pays 25 cents. He had understood that there'is a rate from South Omaha, Omaha and Council Bluffs on through billing the same as tho flat 12! cents from Kansas City, while the flat rate from these points is 12§ cents. “How do you know that to be the fact!" inquired Mr. Morrison. “I got my information from commi men and a Burlington agent.” J. A, Hook is the name of th man who was charged with ha these pointers. Seiffort came to the front again with a statewent, though he admitted that he was not a practical farmer, on the cost of produc. g corn. The average crop is 45 busheis per re, worth § Therefore the armers claim it costs t! 20 cents a bushel. Ho figured the price of land at $35, and those who rent pay either $3 au acre or one-third of the product. Mr. Babcock was recalled to tell what he knew about the price corn has been selling at in Nebraska recently. laJanuary it was s0ld to firms in St. Paul, from points on the Union Pacific and Elkhorn roads, smd he, av 27 and 3 ceuts. He nsmed Omaha, Fremont, David City, Seribner, Dodge and other points. he tariff in effect was then 5 cents o hundred less from Oméha to St.Paul thau to Chicago. He got this information from partics whosold corn, John Deviny of Hooper had told bim that he sold fifty cars to Peavey at 271, cents on the track at St. Paul. Mr. Snyder of Fremont told him that he sold at 2i1g. At ficst this corn was billed n care of the faterior elevator at St. Paul, ut was subsequ |ll,v changoed and rebilled to Boston, via the ‘Soo” line. At present, continued Mr. Babeock, To ~ ledo buyers are paying a premium of 13§ cents per bushel on Nebraska corn, provid- ing it is shipped to them by way of St. Louis over the Tolodo, St. Louis & Western road. Ho understood this advantaze of the Toledo market oxists generally in Nebraska. It will be remembered that S. R, Callaway, formerly general manager of the Union Pa- cific, is now president of the Toledo, St. Louis & Western. That Papiliion Ki In last week’s 1ssue of the Papiliion Times complaint is made against the Union Pacific road for refusing free transportation of con- tributions to the starving Dakota settlers, which the farmers of that vicinity gener- ously offered in the shape of two car loads of corn, wheat and flour, aud with an un- derstanding that the railroads would trans- vort them free of charge. The complaint For sixty on commission ing given up the cars had been loaded, all ready 1o Dpe forwarded to the sufferecs in the far away north, the Union Pacific railway company, a corpora- tion which has fattened upon government aid and patronage for twen ears, Dosis tively refused to move the cars over to Coun- cil Bluffs for 1 cent leas than the rezular froight tariff. There was no appeal. Again, after wakiog the magnincent contributions, the farmers and business men of Papiilion went down iuto their pocketaand brought up enough money to pay the frewzht on thy two cars to Council Bluffs, where they wera taken in charge by the Milwaukes road and ianded, free of charge, at the doors of the starving settlees.’” After General Freight Azent Tebbets had read the arcicic a Bre reporter asked him what he had to say ubout it. *Just this,” he suid. **Some time ago our connecting lines notified us that they would not accept free billed freight witheut first having an opportunity to investigate each and every consignment. This is what we told the Papillion people. There was no re- fusal cn our part to haul their stuff, and, to prove our sincerity, if they send mo the bill Lwill rofund thea their money. *‘As another evidence of the fact that the Union Pacific is not the least bit mercenary in matters of this kind, I need only to state that today we billed a car load of provisions free of chiarge from Papillion to the sufferers at Sidoey. adistance of 400 miles, and witain the past two months we have hauled more than forty car loads free,” Mr. Clerk Resigns, D.

SERVICES AT THE CHURCHES. An Elegant Pansgyric by Father Hayes of Imogene, la.—Tho Parade—Exercises at Exposition Hall: St. Patrick's Day. A fairer and more beautiful day could not be desired on which to revere the memory of St. Patrick. The sun shone with genial warmth and the absence of the northern breezes allowed tho temperature to attain to a height of fifty degrees. As a consequence the spirits of tho ayerage Irishman wore more than ordinarly buoyant and ecemed in a great measure to inspive individuals of other na. nationalities with the enthusiasm of the day. As a consequence green ribbous, bows and shamrocks decorated mauny breasts other than those of Irishman. The brothorly feeling which these little symbols evicsaced was heartily appreciated by some of the old land across the sea and their descendants, wnd couduced to many a happy mecting which wiil long make memorable the day we celebrate. For the first time in many year Omaha made an attempt to celebrate the feast of the patron saint on a large scale and the attompt was crowned with success. In all the Catholic churches mass was said aty o'clock, but the principal sarvices of the day were held in St. Philomena cathedral, where atf o'clock solemujhigh m as cele: brated, Rev. P, I'. McCarthy acting as cele- brant, Rev. I, Carroll, deacon and Rev. F. Kelley, sub-deacon. The auditorium was thronged with wor- shippers and others who had beeu drawn thither to hear the eloquent panegyric by Rey. F. Hayes of Imogene, Ia. Referring to St Patrick, Father Hayes said: The vicissitudes of his fortune, his capture, sluvery, escape und return to I'ranco: his laborions studies and humble eutry into tho ccclesastical state; his life as a religious with its attendant provocations; his compassion for the people among whom ho had sojourned as a slave; his zeal for the extension for the kingdom; tho holy life by which he bad edified bis brethren— ail were parts of a whole, eminently train ing and qualifying him tor the high and holy mission which God was about to assign him. He was called to Rome but neither the splendor nor the solemnity of the eternal city couid shut out from his ears that vowe of the Irish which called him from afar to open the way of Salvation. It was a voice which he could not resist for 1t was an ecio of the voice of God.

Before the great assembly of the representative men of the nation then convened at Tara was Patrick bought. He boldly confessed tho faith that that gave dignity to his mem and elequence to hus speech. He denouuced and denied the faise ®ods which they worshiped and implored them to turn away away from the adoration of the sun to th adoration of the true and only God wio mado it. He told them of tho atoning sucr fice of the cross aud eutreated them to in down their burdens at its foot, He spoke of the mysterious trimty and when asked how that trini couid be unit he stooped to the smeraid sod on which he 'stood and rais i therefrom the treafoul, held it aloof, The immortal leaf Of board and chief Old Erin’s native shamrock. The speaker then spoke of the martyrs of Ireland as follows: O shades of the illus- trious dead, ye martyes f religion and lib erty. lying beneath the altars of heaven robed in your bloody robes inspire me now.

ST, PATRICK'S DAY IN THE EVENING The concluding exercises of the auniver- sary were hela at Kxposition hall last even- ing, in the presence of a large and enthusi- astic audionco. On the stage were a large number of membera of the Ancient Order of Hiberaians, under the leadership of Hon. Richard O'Keeffe; also Mayor R, C. Cush: ing, who presided, Father Hayes of Imo- gene, Ia., und Julés Lumbara. After an appropriate mediey of Irish airs by the Ancient Order of Hiberniun band, Hon. R. C. Cushing de liverad the openiag addross. “Historians," said Mr. Cushing, ‘‘disagree as to the birth- place of St. Patrick. Even our modern bis- torians, some iocated right hera in Omaba, dogmatically fix his native land, but on one thing they all agree, that it was not Ireland. Rey. Peppor insists that he must have been Mothodist becauso he was & good man.

The murder of dr. Cronih was a foul trime.

Let us struggie 1o add Ireland to the list, so that in time we may have a succession of repub! bounded on the east by the rising sun; on the nortt by the aurora borealis; on the south by the southern cross, and on the west by the kingdom come.’ Father Hayes' address was briof, what it lacked in length was made up originality, vigor and five, Mr. Will J. Claire delivered an excoed- ingly interesting address in which he re- counted the valorous deeds of Irishmen under all flags and under all nationalities but their own. The addross was very in structive, because, looking on the bright side of the picture, the orator drew the con- clusion that a people 80 patient, persistent and unconquerable will prevail over the powers of tyranny. Mr. Webb rendered 1n a most acceptable manner “Believe Mo if All Those kindearing Young Charms,” and in response to an encore sang, “Mary of Argyle.” ‘The entertainment concluded with a reci- tation by R.
