SHIPPERS WIN THE FIGHT
Eastern Eailrsadi Will Hot Begin Using
Uniform Bill tf Lading January 1.
BANKERS WILL NOT" ACCEPT NEW FORMS
This Evidence Sarprlaea Attorneys for
the Roads sil They Ask for m
Recess to Coasalt wlta
Officials.
CHICAGO, Dec. C Although still fl right
ing the matter before the Interstate Com
merce commission, the eastern railroads
practically hav agreed ' not to Insist on
the Objecttoitable provisions- contained In
the new uniform bill of lading.
This fact developed today during tho
hearing before the commission when At
torney Levy Mayer, representing the ship
pers, declared certain otastern roads had
announced to the shipper that they would
not put the bill In effect January 1. Never
theless, ."an attempt on ; the part of the
commission to sustain a general guarantee
that no action would be taken, before Feb
ruary 1 waa ineffectual.
The eastern lines held a conference here
today, aV which the subject was dlscussei
and It was generally onceded that It would
be useless to attempt ' to impose 30 per
cent Increase in the rates, based on as
sumptions of carriers' common law lia
bility to pay damages, for loss or injury
to shipments. It also was decided that It
.' would . be Impactlcable to Insist on the
words "Not negotiable."
The tacit understanding was that even
though the bills of lading were put Into
effect - January 1, these words would be
stricken out whenever' a shipper insisted
on It. and-that when objection was made
tho Signature of the shipper to the bill of
lading would not bo required. .
Proaty Asks aeatloas.
At today's session 7 of the Inter
state Commerce commission Frank J.
Firth, . .chairman o ft he uniform bill of
lading committee, testified that increased
losses Justified an incraase of freight rates
by the railroad, companies., ' Exception was
taken-4ft ibis statement by Attorney Levi
Maher, counsel for tho prosecution, who
submitted statistics showing relative earn
ing of various railroads for 1902 and 1903.
According to these figure th profits
of the various railroads for 1901 were con
siderably In excess of those of 1902. After
a perusal of the figures Mr. Firth admitted
their veracity.
"It seems to me," ' sal Commissioner
Prouty, "that If you 'hold' a pistol to a
man's head, and at your" suggestion he
gives you his valuables, he does not do It
voluntarily; he has no alternative. It
appear that the shipper wtll not accept
the 20 per cent service because he cannot
afford to do it. Is it not the proposition
bf the companies to practically fores the
... -shipper fo take the limited liability service
. because the companies do not wish to be
come the Insurer?" ' . .
' , Mr. Firth said .that he could not speak
' except from his own experience, that on
hla road, tb experience waa. If the com--pany
Insured the goods they .were unable
, to tell In what condition they had been
. packed and were helpless at arriving at a
Just settlement .
A number of witnesses at the afternoon
,' session . testified that no trouble was mot
with the old bill of lading in negotlatine
. loans upon them from banks, until the
railroads announced that a new bill would
be Issued and the so-called 20 per cent
Increase was called to the attention of
the hankers, as well ns the words "Not
negotiable," which are printed In the new
bills. Then the witnesses testified that
the banks announced that they would ont
handle such a proposition and the ship
per became frightened and sought the
commission for a settlement of the ques
tion. Among those who testified along these
lines were F. T. Bentley. traffic manager
of the Illinois Steel company; George J.
Stebblns, secretary of the Grain Dealers'
National association; C. C. Bbvey, repre
sentative of the National Millers' associa
tion, and Herbert r Dad ley, traffic manager
of the Millers' National association, of
New York.
Railway Attorneys Surprised.
A telegram was rend before the commis
sioners from William A. Nash of the
Corn Exchange bank of New York, stat
ing that the bank would not exchange
loans for the proposed bills OT lading.
. From remarks . today of a- number of
attorneys representing the railroads Inter
ested In the hearing- the testimony offered
today came as a surprise to them. A num
ber of these attorneys asked that the
Lhearlng be adjourned so that they could
learn what action the officials of the roads
will take. Mr. Firth, president of the
uniform bill of lading committee, said over
60.000,000 of the new bills have been printed
and that they will go Into effect January
1, but that there will be no material
change. If the commission desired to wait
thirty days or more. This brought objec
tions from Attorney Mayer, representative
of the shippers' association and the hear
ing was adjourned until tomorrow morning
wit hthe suggestion by the commlsnlonei 1
that the railroad attorneys egt together
and arrive at some definite conclusion con
cerning what they Intend doing. Attorney
Mayer said his testimony will be com
pleted at tomorrow's session.

WONDER WHERE REVELATIONS WILL STOP
Hew York a'ad Ohio Attoraey Are
Avraltlaa- with Interest Farther
Developments la ' the
thadwlrk Case.
NEW YORK, Deo. . The startling ad
mission by President Beckwith of the Cltl
sens' National bank of Oberlin, O., that
he and' Cashier Spear of that bank had
endorsed. Mrs. Cassle Lv Chadwlok'a notes
to the amount of 11,260,000, and that they
bore what purported to be the signature
of Andrew Carnegie, - hea astotfnded the
New York lawyers representing the various
Interests Involved in a case which be
comes more surprising with every new
revelation. That President Beckwlth's
statement bring th light new and Impor
tant phases ,of the case, and brings much
nearer 'the ' inevitable uncovering of the
entire affair, is the belief- of a majority
of the attorneys interested. The result of
today's moves In the case are awaited
with Increased Interest In the apprehension
that the crUle Is near and may be reached
today. . J
A sensational report today was that one
of the 'local counsel for Mrs. Chad wick
had decided to wltndraw from the cose.
Percy W. Carver, counsel for Herbert
D. Newton of Brookllnn, Mass., who hns
claims of almost fcXW.iXO against Mrs. Chad
wick, sptaklng of the statement made last
night by President Beckwith, president of
tho Cltisens' National bank of Oberlin, said
developments had come so fast that he did
not know what to say. He thought, how
ever, that Mr. beckwith must have made
the statement under pressure, or, being cn
the verge of a nervous collapse, "had lost
his nerve."
Confident Mrs. Chad wick Will Pay.
"I am still confident that Mrs. Chadwlck
will settle all the claims against her,"
Mr. Carver aald. Mr. Carver was agked.the
direct question If Mr. Newton was Induced
to. lotui Mrs, Ch.Klwlck money on a note
bcaili.B .the name of Andrew Cnrnegle and
l.o rcp.ieil: "Mr. Newton was shown a
note." He would not say, however,
whether it bore th name of Mr. Car
negie. At the Holland house, where Mrs. Chad
wick has been living, it was expected
further sensational developments would be
disclosed upon the arrival of Receiver
Frank Lyon from Cleveland. He Is the
receiver for the Cltisens' National bank
of Oberlin, and it was announced that ha
left Cleveland last night, carrying with him
the noted on which it is alleged Andrew
Carnegie's name appears. Mr. Lyon's mis
sion Is thought to be to consult Mr. Car
negie with regard to the notes.
Mrs. Chadwlck rose early at the hotel
and sent for all the morning papers.
Philip Carpenter of counsel for Mrs.
Chadwlck called at the Holland house
shortly after 9 o'clock and . waa In con
ference with Mrs. Chadwlck about an hour.
He would aay absolutely nothing about
the Beckwith statement.
Trace of Another Note.
Possible developments affecting the
whereabouts of a note for 1500,000, which
President Beckwith says he Indorsed for
Mrs. Chadwlck, -are anticipated by the at
torneys, now that its existence has for
the first time become known publicly. Mr.
Beckwith said that Mrs. Chadwlck gave
her word hot to dUpose " bf It or rase
money on It. and counsel for Herbert D.
Newton of Boston Is authority for the
statement that the Newton loan was not
based on such a note. Whether the ex
istence of this note will point to other
loans by Mrs. Chadwlck, aa yet not made
public, is a matter of much speculation.
Philip Carpenter, counsel for Mrs. Chad
wlck, said today that he had told her she
need have no fear of arrest. He added
that If a warrant were Issued for her Mr.
Chadwlck would be found at the Holland
house.
Irl Reynolds of the Wade Park Banking
company of Cleveland arrived her today,
accompanied by his attorney, Andrew
Bqulre. He went to the Waldorf-Astoria
and registered, but left there shortly
afterward for another hotel.
Carnegie Reaffirms Denial.
Andrew Carnegie said today that he hail
nothing to add to hla previous denials of
the signatures of the notes attributed to
him. He said that he had not seen Re
ceiver Lyon, nor any on else officially
oonnected with the case. He nuked what
wer tho latest developments and learned
them with apparent interest.. He said he
Would be glad to se Mr. Lyon or any one
els connected with the affair, and added:
"If any I'nited States government official
will conn to se ni he will receive a very
gracious reception."
Frank Lyon, receiver of the Oberlin bank,
arrived in this city today, accompanied by
F. F. Oldham, a lawyer of Cleveland,
counsel representing th United State
comptroller' office at Washington, and I.
K. Whitney, a builder of Oberlin and a
depositor In the Oberlin bank. Mr. Lyon
would neither affirm nor deny that he had
with him two note for $750,000 bearing the
name of Andrew Carnegie. He declared
that his business was not with Carnegie. .
Beckwith la State ot Collapse.
OBKKLIN. O., Dec. (.-President C. T.
Beckwith was practically in a tat ot
collapse today as a result of the trying or
deal which h passed through yesterday in
connection with th hearing before the
United State commissioner at Cleveland.
Mr. Beckwith is completely prostrated and
hi grief la pitiful. In discussing his
troubles ths vole of th aged banker
choked with emotion. Today, hi speaking
of the Carnegie notes, he vehemently de
clared that U the signatures wer forgeries
then th hand of th law should be laid
upon Mr. Chadwlck. "Why should I
stand the brunt of all this trouble, which
has been directly brought about by the
act of that woman?" he cried.
Continuing, Mr. Beckwith aald:
"1 have every reason to believe that the
note were genlilne. Indeed, Mrs. Chad
wlck swore they were. She solemnly
swore that she had seen Mr. Carnegie write
his signature on them. To confirm this
sii brought an attorney ' with her,
who declared he was the legal
representative of Mr. Carnegie, and
this attorney, whose nam I cannot
now atate, declared that he knew positively
that fh signaturea wer genuine.
"It is true that Mr. Spear and myself did
sndorsa the notes, but, of course, w had
no Idea that they wer to be put to th us
that they were afterward.
"Then, again, we had the ponltlve assur
ance of Irl Reynolds, secretary of the Wade
Park Banking company at Cleveland, that
he had the securities tliat Mr. Chadwlck
claimed he had.
"Oh. my God." exclaimed th old man,
"If 1 could only have my life to live over
again for tl.e laat two years, that I might
save my mm fro:n this great dishonor that
has befatle.i me." .
