DISAPPOINTMENT IS FELT
Denial of Request to Give More

Wre From Commission.
"Tlie hearing: of ttie Interstate com
moace commission on the increase in
rates applied for by the railroads
under the transportation act provision
that makes it the duty of the com
mission to Increase rates to a charge
sufficient to produce the revenues
guaranteed to the roads, Is topro
ceed in Washington, next Monday. and
there will be no opportunity for
shippers to appear except at this time.
Thie Information -was received yester
tia by J. N. Teal, who had asked
fosjmore time in which western ship
pers might appear 1 efore the commis
sion. TJiose who desire to appear at the
commencement of the hearing must
be! in Washington by Monday, when
the -cfriclal southern, applications will
bejieard, with the western carriers
next in order.
" Postponement Granted.
reference to the situation that IS
prfrted and the effort of coast
shlvrr to have an opportunity for
furfhSr consideration, Mr. Teal said
yesterday:
"At the reiuest of numerous ship
pers and representatives of shippers,
the'Tiuestlon was taken up with the
commission of the possibility of g;et
tiner further time for interests in the
west arm also. If this could not be
done, to allow 30 days' time after the
carriers closed their case for the
shippers to put in their testimony.
These changes were not asked to
bring about any delay or to in, any
way interfere with a proper adjust
ment of the applications for Increases
in rate's, but because the matter was
- of such importance and of such
enormous consequence to the western
shippers particularly, it was thought
time would roally be gained by giving
an opportunity for a proper consid
eration of the matter by the shippers
and a preparation of facts. B
"Today tlie commission through
Commissioner Altt-hlson ''ired the ap
plication had been considered by the
commission in conference and it was
impossible to postpone the hcariag
set for May 24. ' or to postpone the
hearing after the carriers have put
in Chelr testimony.
" nlniera .ire Rlftanpolnied.
"He said th applications of the
official southern and western car
riers, wtould be heard in that order,
followed by the shippers in like
order, and it was impossible to tell
how much time would be required
under each application.
"All the shippers are very greatly
disappointed, as owing to the time It
takes to reach Washington, and the
groat mtcrests that are at stake,
particularly in this section, they had
hoped that the commission might ee
its way clear to accommodate the
hearing to the requirements of the
far west in some way. It Is probable
that the commission has so much to
do that it feels It must proceed and
get the matters out of the way as
rapidly as possible and that everyone
must adjust himself to this condi
tion.' CHINAMAN BOUND OVER

Easier to tell whom it doesn't help the firm that
doesn't use iL Of course, there are some firms who can't use the
Multigraph, but only a few, and our sales slogan, "You can't buy a Multigraph
unless you need it, " takes care of them.
Just 'to give you some idea of the firms that can
and do, here's a brief list of users and uses!
Don't bother, to read the whole list. Pick out the
firms and uses in your own line. Then figure that there are
hundreds of others not listed. And that in these dog-eat-dog, high pressure, low
supply days anything that saves money, earns money and makes money the way
the Multigraph does is worth at least a hearing. -
TJien reach for your phone, or call your stenogra
pher, and arrange for that hearing. You'll get facts and figures
applied to your business. , -
