sion Chairman McLendon eqjV
“At the prior hearing on <hls matter

Newspaper Man Excluded,
'Major J. F. Hanson, president of the
Central, arose and said:
,'H'e shall present facte and figures
here today that In themselves might
help our cause If generally known, but
for certain reasons we think It wisest
to have no reporters present during the
discussion of this matter."
Representative, of the press were
then requested to withdraw, which they
did.
It Is understood that the railroads.
In the event that the order Is not
suspended, will put the new rates Into

the commission, that It prefers a flat
1.1-3 cent rate, with 2-cent 1,000 Inter
changeable family mileage books.
It Is believed that th* hearing will
be closed Friday afternoon ana that
tho commlaslon will at once render its
decision. The opinion prevail* that the
qommlsslon will stand by the order
originally Issued.
It will then be up to the roads as to
the future course relative to the new
rates.
Southern’s Proposal,
v The first definite proposition to the
commission for a compromise of any
character came Friday from J. S. B.
Thompson, assistant to the president.
Mr. Thompson proposed that If the
commission would give the Southern a
31-4 cent rat* that the road would
voluntarily put In a 1,000-mlle family
mileage book at 2 1-4 cents. This book
would be good for an entire family,
however large.
White he could not and was not
speaking for others. Mr. Thompson ex
pressed the opinion that a similar ar
rangement would be agreeable to same
of the other lines. Under order No, 134
the Southern was placed In class "C."
which fixed the rat* at 21-2 cents per
mile.
