"Tho anomaly and tho injustice of
tho present law ls that it provides

I length of 40 feet or more. The rall
I roads arc compelled to furnish the
department with about 4.SOO com

"Tho weighing of malls is costly

railroad" " bejlo'vp Ithe cost of the
weighings* could be reduced 75 to !I0
per cent and all trouble in the de

provides such a remedy.

if thc nialia were weig?i^ii with suf
