The Tremont Trust company, a banking institution with savings and commercial depart ments, was closed late today by Bank Commissioner Joseph C. Allen. Com missioner Allen's formal statement said) Resolutions are now being drafted by the traffic committee of the chamber of commerce which ask that the rail roads at this port be tiot allowed to make water terminal charge on lum ber or naval stores unloaded from crafts at the wharves of the railroads to be loaded Into cars. This step was decided upon yesterday at a special meeting of the chamber traffic com mittee held at noon at whichtlme the new interstate commerce commission rules which became effective January 10, which allow the railroads to make a terminal charg-e. were thoroughly discussed. J. A. Taylor, chairman of the traffic committee presided at th meeting. It was pointed out by some of the local shippers that the new regulation permit's of a wharfag-e charge of one cent per hundred " pounds of freight which is brought into this 'pot pn vessels of any discription and loaded on cars or transferred to warehouses of the railroads for transfer to cars, delivery or storage.

In approving any grants, the members of the present commission, Secretaries Baker, Payne and Meredith, are inclined to antici pate development of methods in the near future that will permit the trans porting economically of power to points 600 miles or more from the falls. Experts have told the commission that the "single assignment" plan should include assignment of water power privileges below the falls as well as those above. Plans to combine the several hundred thousand horse power taken from the gorge with the millions taken from above the falls into one project -were presented. The plans range from tunneling under Goat island, which hangs on the precipice between the American and Canadian falls, to digging a power and ship ca nal from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario.
