50 THE COAL TRADE BULLETIN. WESTERN COAL DEALERS OBTAIN CONCESSIONS FROM RAILROADS. The Iowa-Nebraska Coal Dealers' Association has come to an agreement with the railroads with which it has been negotiating for several months. Two important concessions have been made by the roads, and President C. H. Chisam, speaking for the members of the association, announces that they are satisfactory. He says there will be no effort by the dealers to secure legislation on reciprocal demurrage, present arrangements being entirely satisfactory. One of the points conceded by the railroad companies is a reduction in the weighing fee at destination of coal shipments from $2 to $1 a car, together with the acceptance of weights at delivery as the basis of freight charges. The other victory won by the coal men has reference to demurrage charges for cargoes which they fail to unload within 24 hours after delivery. In future, whenever the demurrage is questioned for any reason, a board of arbitration will pass upon it before payment is made. Heretofore the dealers have always paid demurrage charges first, and then, if there was cause for complaint, would file a claim for the return of the money paid. Hereafter they will not be required to pay until the board of arbitration decides that the charge is just. This board will comprise the manager of the Western Car Service Association, acting for the railroads, and a man chosen by the coal dealers. Its conclusions will be mutually binding. Lumber men are included in this arrangement. The advantage to coal dealers in basing freight charges on the weight of a cargo at its destination is that it does not compel them to pay transportation rates on what may be lost in shipment. It often happens that a car of coal loaded at the mine will tip the scales at 83,000 or 84,000 pounds, but when it is billed the weight will have shrunk to 80,000 pounds or less. The old practice was to charge freight on the mine weight, regardless of the well known fact that coal cargoes frequently lose in transit from theft and other causes. Under the new plan the weight of a carload at the end of its shipment will be taken as prima facie evidence of the amount of coal it contains, and the dealer will pay freight in accordance with it. The only unsettled matter is the value of the shrinkage in transit. The dealer must pay for all the coal that leaves the mine, and the railroads are held responsible for Iailure to deliver full weights. It will be an easy matter to determine claims under the system agreed upon, and it is believed the roads will handle coal more carefully than before. Where the benefit of the new demurrage rule conies in is in forcing the railroad companies to make deliveries regularly or losing the use of cars till they can be unloaded conveniently to the dealer. Should one car a day be ship ped for a week, and they be held up en route so that all reach the consignee at the same time, he will not be called on to unload all within 24 hours or pay for the cars held, but will be allowed extra time, according to the number of cars.
