He spoke as follows: The Elkins bill, which passed In the last Congress relates wholly to the prevention of discrimination between individual shippers.

There are two or three other classes of discrimination which require the attention of Congress quite as the one which has been, as we hope, remedied. "By favorable rates being granted to certain localities and certain sections, more or less business.Is diverted from other localities naturally entitled to it by reason ot their geographical position. There is also discrimination between different descriptions of traffic, as, for example, in the case of hay. Hay, together with some other articles, was raised three years ago from the class in which it had been for a great many years to another class. There was a general change in classification on the first of January, 1900, by means of over SOU different classes of articles were raised from a 'potass high errand -had- higher rates applied to them.

Hay was one of these commodities which had always been in the sixth class, but in the change of classification it was raided to the fifth class, subjecting, i.t to an increase of 35 per cent, in rates, and this traffic has, I believe, for many years been running up to tons per annum.
