As to Rate Making. In conclusion. Mr. Wlnburn said he wished to answer Mr.. Alexander's query as to the prlnciine on which rates are based. "There are no arbitrary rules," he sail). "The making of rates Is not an exact science. Both freight and pas senger rate making Is in the nature of experiments. It seems to me that the rates we have today are fair for all (parties. "We attempt to make them reason able for the service rendered. The pas. sengor rates are subject to certain general laws and conditions. In mak ing cheap excursion rates we follow the principles Involved In freight rate making. •If the Central should earn $4,000,- m Instead of $2,250,000, I should see no warrant In that why the commis sion should reduce our rates. Cognl-« lance of the many lean years we have passed through should be considered." Georgia Not Represented. The Georgia road was called, but no onr responded. H Judge John I. Hall, of Macon, was spokesman for the Georgia Southern and Florida, and submitted affidavits of the executive heads of the road showing the conditions now existing. Charles I,. Stone, general passenger agent of the Louisville and gfashvllle, aald that the rates now obtaining on his road were much fairer to the pub lic than to the road. He contended that the Louisville and Nashville operated the line In Georgia at an actual loss. ’ “Everything used by railroads Is steadily Increasing In cost, while the only commodity they have to sell, pas senger and freight transportation. Is steadily decreasing. Now. nn effort Is being made to cut rates still further.'' Afternoon Session. At the hearing Tuesday afternoon J. C. Posted, of Macon, representing the labor unions, argued against the re duction. contending that It would mean a reduction of wages ( if brought about. He said the business men and labor or ganlxatlons of Macon were opposed to the reduction almost to a man. J. \V. Oglesby, president of the South Georgia and West Coast road, said the trouble was too much politics. If you'll take politics out of our business we'll take out the water. We'll swap barrels with you right along. I do not know how true It Is, but there Is a rumor going the rounds that there is politics In this movement; that there la a plan to defeat Hoke Smith's railroad plan. Gentlemen, let Mr. Smith do hts own work In hla own Way." Chairman Warner Hill replied that such a rumor was without foundation. It la expected that all the argument will be concluded Wednesday after noon. and tho commission will then take the matter under advisement.
