JOBBING CENTERS INTERESTED Commlonlonrr Clnrk Snyn thr nail Donrd In Gxlrrmelr Dmlronn of Avoiding- Leant Entangle ment In Procedure. (Prom a Staff Correspondent) LINCOLN, Oct. 10.-(Sieclil.)-Thc railroads were not prepurea to discuss the prposed freight ratet. prepared by the railway commission when the dis cussion which has been on for the last two days before tho railway commission on the proposed orer No. 19, closed on the part of the jobbers. Mr. Rich of the Union pacific did not think his road could be ready for thirty days and might need slxtyffor some parts of the argument which It desired to present. Byron Clark for the Burlington thought that his road would bo ready very soon and suggested that the hearing be post poned for ten days and then tako up such matters as were ready, Ife thought It would be a good Idea for the exports of both the commission and the different railroads to get togother and consnlt about tho proposed rates and thus bo in better shape to discuss them when the hearing was resumed. This seemed to strike E. P. Holmes of tho Rock Island and A. A. McLaughlin of tho North western as & good thing and they acqul- e3ce& in the plan. Chairman Clarko of the commission thought the commission was not favor able to any sabeme which would tend to shift the burden of proof from the rail roads onto the shoulders of the com mission. Mr. McLaughlin thought It Would be a fine Idea to let the railway commission make Us decision and then let the roads discuss the matter afterwards. Speaking from a personal view cf the matter, he did not think that his road would bej in favor of any chango In rates which would tear down ono lobbing center for the pur pose of building up another. Tho great bulk of the discussion during the two days had been from the Jobbers' standpoint as against the proposed order No. 19 of tho commission changing the present rates, but during the closing mln Utea of tho hearing those who favored the change as proposed by the commls ilon had their say. Crawford In Heard. A representative from tho town of Craw ford said that tho change would bo a good, thing for their town, enlarging' Jho scope of territory, especially on shipments from the west. Representatives from Kali-bury endorsed the plan of tho com mission, saying that it , would benefit them. Falrbury is a preferential point In the commission's order, but does not now receivo any concessions from the rail roads. Jr,E. Powers of Lincoln, representing a paint, and wall paper concern, -said the Jobbers of Nebraska ought to be ashamed of themselves .to )et a Sioux CJty man come to their defense. He urged the com mission to remomberihat It waa In ex istence to look out for the rights of the people, as well as the rights of the rail roads and Jobbers. He said that one-third tf the men at the hearing represented the railroads B,nd more than that number rep resented tho big Jobbers from Omaha, and Lincoln and other Jobbing centers. He said the small Jobber and consumer were not represented at all. Mr. McVann tried to question the Lin coln man but he refused to, stand for it, saying that he paid more for a car of freight from Lincoln to Holdrege than be paid from Chicago to Lincoln. Lincoln's Position. W. 8. Whltten of the Lincoln Com mercial club desired It understood that Lincoln did not propose to oppose a re duction in freight rates. "Wo want merely to be allowed to keep the terri tory we have developed," said he, "and be kept on a parity with other Jobbing centers of the stato where such privileged are now enjoyed. Under the proposed rates Lincoln Jobbers will be cut out of rich territory In Northwestern Nebraska unless the Jobbers absorb the difference In rates and charge it up against profits." In closing the hearing Chairman Clarke of the commission stated' thut In advocating the proposed distance tariff the commission was desirous of escaping possible legal complications as to Its authority. No time has beep set by the commis sion for taking up the hearing In the future, having the same under consld. t ration. i - Notrs from Franklin. FRANKLIN, Neb., Oct. 10. (Special.)
