The Intcr-Stnto CommlHslon ,
The Intcf-stnto commerce commission re
convened m the United States court room
yesterday. The commission heard nil the
testimony in the case of the Minnesota busi
ness men versus the Northwestern railroad
company yesterday , but as yet have rendered
no dcclMonnnd It Is probably the Intention to
Imvo nil the adjudications take place on the
final day of the session litre. This morning
the grievances of the Omaha business men
npalnst the different railroad companies
whoso lines traverse the Mate were taken up ,
with W. A , Li. Gibbon , an old Iron merchant ,
upon the stand.
Tbo full text of the bill of complaint fllcd
by Omaha , reads substantially as follows !
Freight Hurcau , Omaha Hoard of Trade !
This amended bill of complaint of the mer
chants , manufacturers and business men of
the. city of Omaha through the freight bureau
of the board of trade to the Intcr-stato com
merce commission , represents :
Since the filing of the original complaint In
November last certain now freight tariffs
have been Issued by the Chicago & North
western railroad , the Chicago , Milwaukee &
St. Paul and the Chicago , Hock Island &
Pacific , discriminating more severely against
the business Interests of Omaha and afford
ing Increased preferences for Chicago ,
to Omaha's irrcat detriment.
Further , that this great railroad corpora
tion , making Chicago Its Initial point for
west-bound traflic , now charging on llrst
and fifth classes ot west-bound merchandise
from Chicago to stations upon the Union
Paclllc system , in this state , the rates of
freight to points designated in thc bill.
This amended bill of complaint further sets
forth that the aforesaid Chicago , Burlington
& Qulncy , Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul ,
Chicago & Northwestern and Chicago , Hock
Island & Pacific railroads were charging on
the 20th of December , 1837 , nnd have since
been charging the following rates , Which
wore Issued by I. " N. Fnlthorn , chairman of
the tariff association , , from the city of Chicago
cage to Omaha , ns agreed upon nnd adopted
by suld railway lines : 1st rate 75c , 2d COc , 8d
40c4th HOc , 5th 85c , being rates publicly Is
sued under a Joint freight tariff.
Tbeso rates of freight ore ns charged by
tbo Union Pacillc , us shown In their tariff
schedule No. 070.
It is charged that the lines above
mentioned are actually violating the
Intcr-stato commerce law inasmuch as
they have authorized nnd are now using
freight tariffs from Chicago to interior
Nebraska points'which ' nro heavily discrimi
nating In favor of Chicago to Omaha's great
detriment and disadvantage , and which dis
crimination the complainants respectfully
submit Is mado1 unlawful by the terms of
section 3rd of the law.
Again that the city of Omaha Is unlawfully
discriminated against and is subject to undue
and unreasonable prejudice and disadvantage
within the meaning of the 3rd section of the
Intcr-stato commerce law.
Again , that by reason of freight tariffs thus
arranged and in effect , the city of Chicago is
largely benclltted to Omaha's detriment u
condition clearly forbidden , not only by the
general tenor of the law. but Involving a dis
tinct violation of the 3rd section.
Therefore , the petitioners ask that the
aforesaid Chicago , Burlington & Qulncy ,
Chicago & Northwestern , Chicago , Milwau
kee & St. Paul and Chicago. Hock Island &
Paciilo railroad companies bo restrained and
compelled to withdraw the freight tariffs in
reference nnd to cease from charging the
rates to points that are designated in this
bill. ' <
The interference of the commission is fur
ther solicited in Omaha's behalf , that the
freight tariff between Chicago and all interior
Nebraska points hereafter constructed upon
a basis that shall give this city nn equal
chance with Chicago as n market and dis
tributing point for west-bound traflle for the
state of Nebraska.
The answer of the Union Pacific railroad
company to this complaint Is an exhaustive
document. It denies that cither by itself or
nny connection with its co-defendants that
it makes Chicago its initial point
for west-bound traflic , or that it
has done so at any of the times alleged In the
complainants' bill , but it admits that in con
nection with the other defendants it has
assented to the establishment of a joint
schedule of rates to bo charged for the trans
portation of freights from Chicago to points
in Nebraska , and at times charged in the
original complaint , the said lutes were sub
stantially coircct as stated by defendants.
It further denies that the said rates , or any
rales In use by the Union Paclllo railroad
company under and by virtue of the schedule
of. joint rates agreed upon by them as alleged
In said complaint , effect any unlawful
discrimination in faVor of Chicago , or
against Omaha. Denies that Its rates arc con
trary to the letter or spirit of section ! ! of the
act to regulate commerce. ; denies that Omnhn
is unlawfully discriminated against or sub
ject to undue disadvantage within the moan
ing of the 3rd section ; denies that it has es
tablished or uses any rates which benefits
Chicago to the detriment of Omatia.
Then it claims that the rates established
by the railroad companies botwccn Chicago
and Omaha and between Chicago ami Interior
Nebraska points , are Just and tcasonable and
not discriminating. That they uro fairly ap
portioned ono toward another , considering
the services required of the railroad com
panics.
Alleges that it would bo , unjust and un il
legal discrimination in favor of Omaha to
charge the sumo rate upon its local freight ,
originating ut Omiilm nnd destined to inter
ior points upon its own line , as it collects for
its proportionate share of the through rate ,
as Jointly fixed by the several railroad com
panies from Chicago to the sumo interior
points upon the line of this defendant.
Wherefore the Union Paclllo asks that the
prayer of the plaintiffs bo denied.
It may not como amiss hereto publish the
purpoit of the rules adopted for the govern
ment of the freight bureau of the Omaha
board of trado. The main object thereof is to
glvotlio railroad and transpnttatton com
panies such information regarding the var
ious lines of goods it represents as shall in
sure proper clusslllcat ion ; to BCCUIO freight
rates to all points that shall in no case dis
criminate against Omaha's business Inter
ests ; to assist in adjusting claims for losses ,
damages mul overcharges.
Tlio opcnitig speech in the afternoon was
Mr. Goucly in behalf of the Chicago & North
western. IIo claimed that no discrimination
whatever existed cither for or against
Omaha. Ho assorted that the present suit
was an attempt to force discrimination In
favor of Omaha , and that if they succeeded
in this then nil the other cities of Nebraska
could complain of n discrimination against
thorn In favor of Omaha.
Mr. Thurston next appcarcU In behalf of
the Union Pat-lilt ! . Ho said that there was
no specific relief which the complaining
parties claim ; no reduction of local rates or
change in tin iff between hero and
Chicago was asked for , If the
principle they contended for should bo
applied to the country nt largo it would ruin
Omalm anil the west. Matters were best as
they now aro. To give every town In
Nebraska the opportunities .for n Jobbing
trade that Omaha now has would bo fatal to
the Interests of the metropolis.
Judge Woolwoi th Bald In behalf of Omaha
that previous to the passage of the intcr-stato
commerce law the jobbing interests of thU
city amounted to 140,000,000. Since then dis
crimination has been practiced against the
city so systematically that It has paralyzed
the lumber trade and every other business.
lie made a strong presentation of the case
and strengthened it with a formidable array
of facts ,
At the conclusion of his speech tbo matter
was taken under advisement nnd the vtork of
the intcr-stato commission in Omahu wns
thus ended.

Untied States Authorities Investigat

TbQ methods employed bp the "agcuuy" is
to get merchants to send it tholr bad debts
Tor collection. The debtor then receives a
letter enclosing n statement of the account
and is Informed that unless ho pays it within
n specified time the bill will bo sent
him next time in nn envelope
on which is printed in largo typo
the words "Bad Debts. " A sample of this la
enclosed and in nome cases causes the pay
ment of the debt , whether Just or unjust ,
through fear of the debtor. The idea of the
"agency" is to ruin the credit of every person -
son whoso name Is given them.
Tlio United States postal authorities hnvo
for some tlmo been Investigating the case ,
and in many Instances the perpetrators of
this outrage Imvo been arrested for using the
United States mails for criminal imrtxjscs.
In the opinion of Postmaster Gallagher , n
strong case can bo made out against everyone -
ono connected with the concern , and It is
learned that ( ho anonymous man who pre
sides over the Omahn branch will find him
self in n serious predicament cro long. The
merchants who nld and abet this crlmo nro
also said to bo liable to fine and Imprison
ment.

pear with their hateful progenitor.
Mont beneficent of stomachics ! who can
wonder that in so many instances it
awakens grateful eloquence in those
who , bcnollttcd by it , speak voluntarily
in its behalf. It requires a graphic pen
to describe the torments of dyspepsia ,
but in many testimonial received by the
proprietors of the Bitters , thcso are
portrayed with vivid truthfulness. Con
stipation , biliousness , muscular debility ,
malarial fever , and rheumatism are re
lieved by it.
