Increase In Loading Requirements Are Almost Prohibitory. Seattle, Aug. 14.—Lumbermen were notified that the Central Freight Association. controlling traf fic of Chicago, has advanced the min imum loading requirements on lum ber and shingles from 4,000 to 6,000 a car, the advance depending upon the car lengths No consideration 1s given to the fact that cars are loaded now to their full visible capacity. The effect Is a sharp advance In rates and will drive Pacific Coast lumber and shingles out of the ter ritory east of Chicago unless they are handled by the Isthmian route or around the Horn. Several months ago certain East ern lines attempted to advance rates 2 to 5 cents a hundred pounds, but the advance was withdrawn. A later order was even more drastic. Lum ber and shingle associations on the entire coast are preparing to fight the proposed Increase In rates from Pacific Coast points, and steps were taken to make a fight against the new minimum loading rules, coinci dent with the struggle against the Western lines. Aside from the California Red wood Association, which is not yet pledged to raise a defense fund the lumbermen of the coast have in sight a 3250.000 defense fund, sufficient to take up the contest against the new- loading rules, as well as the rate con test. The claim is made by lumber men that shipments are made by joint rate and that the Central Bu reau cannot apply the new loading rules at Chicago, CALL ALL MEN OUT.

Monopoly Makss Home Consumers Pay More Than Foreign. Washington, Aug. 14.—Further startling disclosures of the manipu lation and control of the petroleum Industry by the Standard Oil monop oly are made In the report of Her bert Knox Smith. Commissioner of Corporations. Discriminations In prices are exposed in the report which charges that In the business of selling petroleum products In for eign countries the price policy of the Standard Oil Company has been to sacrifice the Interests of the Ameri can consumer for the purpose of se curing the Standard's foreign busi ness.
