SPECIAL DISPATCH A TO THE GLOBE- DEMOCRAT, KANSAS CITY. March 4-Missouri railroads to-day boycotted the MIssouri state board, of railroad commissioners. Two weeks ago the commissioners issued a citation to every railroad in the state, directing it to send some one to testify before the commission at a meeting arranged to be held to-day. Complaint had been made to the commission that coal rates' were unequal. It was in order to get facts upon this point that the railroads were cited.
commission sat from 10 o'clock this morning, till after 5 o'clock listening to the statements of coal men. As only one side was being heard, the commissioners asked if any of the railroad men present, cared to give the board any light. No one responded. At first it was supposed the railroad men were reserving their side of the controversy until the complains should all have been lodged. However, when at 5 o'clock the last man had spoken and "any more remarks?" had been asked by Chairman Knott, It was conclusive that there was a boycott on.
In the room at the time were H. A. Weaver and E. E. Smythe, of the Kan588 City Southern, J.
D. Lund and W. C. Maxwell of the Wabash, C. R.
Berry of the Maple Leaf, G. B. Simpson of the Chicago and Alton, John Maxwell of the St. Joseph traffic bureau, W. P.
Trickett of the City transportation bureau, C. 9. King of the Chicago and Alton, J. Webb of the Katy, F. H.
Madden and George E. Rose of the Santa Fe, William Gray of the Burlington, Henry Holt, from the Chicago office of the Burlington and W. C. Stith of the Missouri Pacific. They sat throughout the hearing as mute as the chairs they occupied.
Unable to contain himself in announcIng the adjournment, Chairman Knott said: "I thank these gentlemen who have testified very much for the information they have given us, but I am obliged to express the greatest astonishment at the action of the railroads in refusing to give this commission information which is needed, and which could have been given. The commission will have to make up its own mind about what the coal rates should be, in the absence of any information from the railroads. It is within the prerogative of the state board of freight railroad commissioners to regulate rates." FRISCO'S TEXAS LINE INTO NEW ORLEANS NOT COMPLETED. east Texas.
