Fenceposts Shipped
by Express Because
Eates Are Lower
FrCBJtE, 3. D.. Sept. Ss. (Special.)
Under tha new express rates In this state
It la cheaper to send packages and ship
ments generally anywhere within tha
boundaries of tha state by express than
by freight. This Is especially true for
shipments wast of tha Missouri river
where the railways have held their
freight rates to a higher point than they
have east of the river. For Instance, the
express rata per 100 pounds between
Pierre and Rapid City Is $5 cents under
tha present rate, while the freight rate
between these two, points Is 78 cents per
100 pounds. This means that shipments
between tha two towns can be made
cheaper by express than by freight and
soma of tha shippers who are aware of
tha situation are taking advantage of it.
Ona day this weak a large shipment of
cedar posts from Rapid City to tha
astern part of tha state went through
hare by express, as they could ba sent
that way cheaper than by fiieght. If
sbiQsars generally find thia to ba tha
rule tha shipments of goods and mer
chandise on tha "yellow cars" will be
greater than those In the ordinary red
box car, and tha express companies will
seed put on mora men ta handle their
business.
