There was a new classification made last winter, which went Into effect February 1. This followed the efforts made by the.

other roads in the North and West to obtain more revenue by raising goods from lower to higher grades of classification. The Merchants' Association protested against this method. It felt that the plan pursued to Increase revenue was unfair. In that It widened the differences already existing in favor of large shippers and against small ones. The result of the protest was a conference of the lines in the North and "West with representatives of leading commercial bodies from nearly all the cities in the territory affected.

Subsequently the trunk lines and other roads issued an amended or supplemental clastlflcation. J. M. Langley, of the Merchants' Association. who has made a careful comparison of the new- Southern classification with former schedules, says: Additional advances in class to the number of 374 have been made out of the total number of nearly twenty-six hundred articles that appear in the classified list.

It will bo recalled that on February 1 tho railways south of the Potomac and east of Mississippi rivers and the steamship lines controlled by them, following the example pet by the Trunk Line Association, on January 1 made substantially 1,603 advances in the classification list that had governed prior to that date. The 374 new changes now made give a total of 1.977 articles advanced in class. This shows that over twothirds of the entire list have been advanced to higher rates for transportation than those which governed prior to the. first advance on February 1.

Another delegation appeared before the Ra-pid Transit Commission at its usual meeting yesterday to advocate, the Flatbush and Atlantlc-ave. route for the, proposed Interborougb tunnel, as opposed to suggested Hamllton-ave.

route. The delegation comprised E. F. Brown and John Adikes. of the Jamaica Citizens' Association, and H.

E. Smith, of the Taxpayers' League, of Richmond Hi! Mr. Brown argued that Jamaica practically the centre of the borough of Queens, and the Flatbush Atlantic-aye. route would benefit from hnlf to three-fifths of the total area and population of Queens County, whil- the remainder would be accommodated by N-w East River Bridge and the proposed Long Island City tunnel. Mr.

Brown asserted that Jamaica the garden spot of Long Island, and that the sparse settlement of the neighborhood was due entirely to the lack of transportation facilities. He said that it now required from an hour and ten minutes to an hour and a half to make the trip from Jamaica to New-York during the rush hours, and that pbout as good time could be made by walking. He said that the Long Island Railroad, never having had any competition, had not treated the residents of Long Island as well as it might have done. Messrs Adikes and Smith also spoke in favor of the Flatbush and Atlantlc-ave. terminal.

Mr. Brown said before the ht-aring that he understood that a proposition for the operation of the tunnel. If placed under Atlantic and Flatbush ayes had been made privately to the Commissioners' Ihis was denied by President Orr. STFBBORX FIRE IX BOSTOX. TVEIX KNOWN' THREATENED-THE $200,000.
