" Palace Car company is on trial at
St Johns, New Brunswick. The
case, which has been before the

alleged damages sustained by James
J. McGaffigan, head of the importing
' firm of J. J. McGaffigan & Co.,
through having caught cold while
traveling from Boston to St. Johns
inan unhealed Pullman Palace car in

a consequence he caught cold, rc-
' suiting in a long illness.

ment among some of the important
1 shippers on the railroads to have
the power either to advance or lower

cials and placed under the control
of the inter-State and State Railroad
; v Commissioners, and to make it i
' . criminal offense, punishable by iru
i1 , prisonment, for both the officers of
the railroads and shippers if the
law is violated. It is claimed that
under the present system discriml
nation is working a continuous in
jury' to shippers; that large dealers
- -- in grain will buy millions of bush
els of grain from the farmers and
f have a secret understanding with
" some railroad that when thev are
' ready to send it to market the rail
' , roaot will file with the railroad com
i missioners a cut . rate; that when
" this particular lot of grain has been
