the United States Trust company, former

accepted. It asserts that on June 15
when hew bids were authorized a quorum
of the council wns not present
Whether tho bonds were sold to the
trust company Is to be threshed out in
the Courts.
Almost the entire voting population of
the city ot Florence went to tho rlty
hall last night to see the councilman open
bids for the $55,000 bond Issue, but went
home disappointed because of the Injunc
tion stopping them from opening the bids.

CIItp Local Jobbers Foothold In
n Territory Where They
Do Mnch Ilushtps.
The decision ot the supreme court ft
the United States giving the Interstate
commerce commission right to make
rates in the tntermountaln territory under
,th long and short haul clause of the
i commerce commission act. It expected
I to effect Omaha shippers favorably. V.
J. MoVann, manager ot the traffic bureau
of the Commercial club, nays the decision
will result In a materUl reduction In
rates from Omaha to the Intcrmountaln
territory which Includes. Salt Lake, 'he
Montana territory. 8nokane. Hollo and
Intervening torrllory. Many of the Omah.i
jobbers and manufacturers arc heuvy
shipper of goods to that territory, and
this gives them an additional hold tn
the business ot that field.
'The Omaha shippers, will have no ,art
In the collection of reparation for oast
excessive charges which Is to bo attempted
by some of the shippers to that territory.
This Is because most of the Omaha good
sold In that territory la sold on the car
In Omoha and tho freight has really xan
paid by tho dealers at the other end.
since that was figured In on the price
mado at Omaha. It will strengthen Omaha
business In that territory, however, tn
that It will give us a reduction of freight
rates."
Creamery Men Interested.
Martin 8. Hartman. traffic manager of
the Fairmont Creamery company, says
those engaged In tho creamery and poul
try business In Omaha are very much
interested In this decision, as It means
much to thorn. "We have already been
enjoying the reduced rates for the last
three years since the commission ordered
tho reduction," he said, "but If the su
preme court had decided against tho com
mission we would have lost that advan
tage. It has meant about $35 a car In
reduced freight rates to us In shipping
to the Intcrmountaln territory, and we
are very much pleased with the decision
upholding this.
AdvantaR). over Clilcnijo.
"At the same time the decision affects
us in that It established a zone basis
for freight rates, thereby giving us an
advantage over Chicago for the business
of the Intennountaln territory. At the
same time that It gives us an advantage
over Chicago It gives Denver some slight
advantage over us for the same busi
ness, but that Is not so serious since
Denver Is not so large a butter, eggs,
poultry and cheese center as Omaha Is.
Denver is at a disadvantage In trying to
build up this line of business since the
territory from which It collects theso
products Is so widely scattered. Here In
Omaha we draw our supply of butler,
eggs, poultry and cheese from a surround
ing territory averaging not more than 110
miles. This makes It easier for us to
center the products here, getting them
ready to ship out In curload lots."
