WASHINGTON, May discrimination and a violation of the. act to regulate commerce, the Dilitown Smokeless-Coal Company of BrookvU'fe, Jeferson county, Pennsylvania, Uas filed a complaint with the Interstate Commerce Commission against the Pennsylvania and Buffalo, Rochester and Pittsburgh Railroad. S. S. Henderson, vice president of the tcoalcom-pany, signs the complaint.

The coal mines of the Dilltwwn company are located in Indiana county, along the Black Lick branch of the Cresson division of the PennsBlvJinia railroad. The market in question is Buffalo and Black Rock. N. Y. IJt Is alleged that the defendant carriers dis-criminate again-st the Dilitown company and in favor of its competitors, whose mines are but a few miles away.

According to the brief of Vice President Henderson, the Buffalo, Rochester; and Pittsburgh Railroad refuse to furnish empty cars for the loading of the complainant's bituminous coal, but. almost daily gives adequate facilities to- competing concerns, despite the fact that the Dilitown company has had constructed, at its own expense, a aiding from the railroad to the coal works. It is charged against the Pennsylvania railroad that it will not accept shipments from the pill town company for less than 1.25 per ton to Buffalo and Black Rock, but carries coal for com-, peting concerns at a rate of $1.10 per-ton. This attitude of the Pennsylvania. railroad, Vice President Henderson, charges, is discriminatory, does great injury and damage, to the Dilitown company and prevenlt9 from competing successfully for the trade In that section of New York: state in question.

The Interstate Commerce Commission is asked to stop the discriminatory practices of tlie railroads and compel them to furnSih the necessary cars for 'oading and tto haul the product of the Dilitown company at the same rate as that aftorded competitors. An investigation of tHer charges will be made by an examiner of the commission. State Banks Urged to Join Federal Reserve System WACO, May money cost of this war," said wt P. (3.

Secretary for War Kitchener stated tn th Mouse of Lords this afternoon that tha British and French governments felt that the allied troops must be adequately protected against poisonous gases by the employment of similar methods.

These would remove the enormous and unjustifiable advantage which must otherwise exist. Speaking of the German attack on the allied front near Ypres, Earl Kitchener said: "In this attack the enemy employed vast quantities oX poisonous gases, and our soldiers and our French allies ere 'utterly unprepared for this diabolical method of attack, which undoubtedly had been long and carefully prepared." "The Germans," staid Lord Kitchener, "have persisted in the use of thesa asphyxiating gases whenever the wind favored or other opportunity occurred and His Majesty's government, no less than the French government, feel that our troops must be adequately protected by the employment of similar methods so as to remove the enormous and unjustifiable disadvantage which must exist for them if we take ia steps to meet on his own ground the enemy who is responsible for the Introduction of this pernicious practice." Referring in eulofrlstlo terms to the men in the new army. Earl Kitchener concluded; "I said I would let the country know when more men were wanted for the war. The time has come, and I now call for 300.000 men to form new armies "Those who ara engaged in the production of war material of any kind should not leave their work. It is to men who are not performing this duty that I appeal, and I am convinced the manhood of England still available will loyally respond."

"From the. speech made yesterday by Count Tisza you will have gathered that the- Vienna cabinet in a sincere effort to ensure enduring peace between, the dual monarchy and Italy, and to take into, account the lasting great vital interests of both empires, had resolved on far-reaching concessions to Italy of a territorial nature. "With its Parliament the Italian people will now decide whether it will reach- the fulfillment of all national aspirations In the widest extent in a peaceful manner, or whether it will plunge the country into war and tomorrow draw the sword against its allies of yesterday and today." "I will not give up- the hope entirely that the scale of peace will be heavier than the scale- ot war, but whatever the decision of Italy may be together with Austria-Hungary, have done an within the bounds of possibility to support an alliance which was firmly rooted' among the- German people and had brought profit and god to the three empires.

In an article ia the Voerwaerts, Eduard Bernstein, Socialist, and former member of the relchstag, protests against reprisals which go beyond the usual conduct of warfare.

"The sinking of the Lusltania, coming as a climax to former incidents of a similar nature, together with the badly advised comments on these Incidents in German newspapers, resulted in excesses against Germans In England and the United States." Herr Bernstein writes. "These excesses are regrettable because they form another step on tha ominous path which, leads to nothing else than multiplication of the already deep wounds which the war causes. "Advocates of reprisals will find it extraordinarily difficult to point to a single case where wars between civilized peoples have been won by such methods. The effect on peoples against whom reprisals are employed is not deterrent but inclines them to war to the uttermost." Herr Bernstein adds that the nation which understands how to set limits to reprisals proves itself stronger than the one which tries to exceed in reprisals this form of warfare. r-f ary, rr rr ijrjrjsj ft Sir-jfe iu.
