Manufacturers in Oregon on rarity
With Those Located in

II. A. Hinshaw, general freight
asent of the Southern Pacific com
pany, with headquarters in Portland,
yesterday announced that he has filed
with the state public service commis
sion an agreement to grant what is
1-cnown as milling-in-transit rates to
lumber manufacturers of Oregon.
The concession. which has been
sought for a long time, is a very im
portant one for the industry. Jt will
mean a. large savins in shipments to
eastern points.
Mr. Hmsuaws statement is as fol
lows: "Arrangements are being made to
publish at the earliest possible date
rules in eastbound transcontinental
lumber traffic, permitting the mill-ing-in-transit
of lumber when origi
nating at points on lines of the South
ern Pacific in Oregon, destined to
transcontinental territory. This ar
rangement will permit the milling-in-transit
only at points on Southern
Pacific lines in Oregon at the follow
ing charge:
"Distance from shipping point to
transit station, 65 miles or less, lVs
cents: more than 65 miles and not
over 105 miles, 2 cents: more than 105
miles and not over 150 miles, 2 Mi
cents: more than 150 miles and not
over 250 miles, 3 cents.
"This will place the mills located on
Southern Pacific lines in Oregon on a
parity w7ith mills located on lines in
AVashington."
Hinshaw added that it probably
will require a few weeks in which to
work out the new schedule and con
clude final arrangements, but that
every possible effort will be made to
put it into effect as quickly as possi
ble. The action of the Southern Pacific
company follows as a result of a peti
tion ol 165 mill owners, filed with the
state commission several months ago.
The state chamber of commerce used
its good influence to assist in bring
ing about the result.
ETGEXE INTERESTS GRATIFIED
Milling-in-Transit Rate Promises
to increase Lumber Industry.
EUGENE, Or., Dec. 14 (Special.)
The news of the granting by the
Southern. Pacific company of the milling-in-transit
rate to the sawmills of
this state was received with much
satisfaction by the owners of numer
ous small mills in Lane county. They
have been working for the establish
ment of this, rate for a number of
years, and believe now that there is a
brighter outlook for the business than
for a long time past.
Lumbermen said today that.where It
formerly had cost them from 10 to 5
cents a hundred to get their rough
material to market by way of the dry
kilns and planers in Eugene, they now
will have a rate of from 1 cent to IVs
cens a hundred, or virtually the same
rate as applied to through shipments
on their products from the mills to
outside points. In the opinion of local
millmen this ruling will result not
only in increased production from the
smaller plants in this district, but
will bring increased business to Eu
gene. On announcement of the granting
of this rate this afternoon one com
ptny that operates a planing and fin
ishing mill here stated that its ca
ptclty will be increased and more men
will be employed.

MARSHAL FEARS MOB
Aged Woman's Assailant Won't

IIANFORD, Cal., Dec 14. Because
ho feared to return his prisoner to the
scene of the offense because of pos
sible mob violence, Henry Toft, mar

today to lock up Edward Grounds,
