the proverbial green bay tree.
The shippers ask a rule that the agent
at the consignee's point, be required to
notify at onoe the freight agent at the
town where consignment was made and
the latter to send word to the shipper.
Missouri river points will be represented
at the meeting by J. it.' Oulld of ths
