from the Cotton Bxchnnge, the Now
York Hoard or Trade and Tranapo la
lion, tho Merchants' Association, the
New Yoik Mercantile bixchungo, the
National Poultry Association, the Na?
tional Hay Association, and man)
othor organisations, The Joint meet
lug of these several bodies which up
pointed tlie committee to attend the
New York conference, adopted res?
lutlons dcuinndlng that iho roa'nonal
blljl) of the railroads bo more clearly
del lied in the now bill of lading than
it (a under the present law.
The largo commercial organisations
of the country have expressed deep
concern over the situation which has
inade this conference necessnry.
Qe?rgo W. Neville, chairman of the
|>lll of lading committee of th? New
York Cotton Exchange, In speaking
of the situation said he regarded It
as a menace lo the business of the
country. "So many heavy lossei)
have boon Incurred by those making
advances on defective bills of lading"
said Mr. Neville, "that bankets In va?
rious sections of the country have
now refused to make loans on this
lias's Of collateral. Then one realizes
that tho crops of the country are now
entirely financed through the medium
of 'order' bills of lading, II Is obvious
Hint If other banking IllBlltutloni
should adopt a similar policy the com?
mercial and agricultural Interests
would find themselves In a grave pre
llonmcnt In this matter the consig?
nees are In tho same boat with the
hankers, for the responsibility of car
tie, s to consignees, bankers or any
third parly other than the shipper
with whom Iho bill of lading is exo I
cuted, is at present a matter of gravel
dotllt under numerous court deci?
sions. The highest courts of Alaba?
ma, Mississippi and North Carolina
hold that patties braking advances
upon 'order' bills of lading, are re
Bpdnslble for the quantity and quality
of the shipment represented. In the
majority or tho states there Is no log'
Islatlon protecting advances or vast
Bums In the flnnnolng of the crops
through tho medium of 'order' bills
of lading.
"The Interstate CPmmerco Commis?
sion now has under consideration pro
visions for a new uniform hill of lad
11>f: which It Is proposed to require
-ach railroad throughout the United
Slates to issue after January 1. This
proposed new uniform bill of lading
while It confers tho prent lien of it oi
uniformity, docs not protect mor
chants paying hill or lading drafts,
hankers making advances on hills of
.l"'1!"? or other lh:-a? purl lea giving
advances on hills or i.-.dlnK. inasmuch
?is the Interstate Commerce Commis?
sion can only proscrlbo the form arid
pquirc tho Issue of a uniform bill of
lading il Is necessary to nsk Congress
for additional regulation to protect
the advances on mich documents.
Merchants and consignees then for"
consider It necessary that amendments
to Hie proposed uniform bill or lading
bo lirgod upon the Interstate Com?
merce Commission so as to prrtteel
bartles advancing value upon sticli
hills or lading and they also deem
it absolutely necessnry to secure ear?
ly congressional action upon this sub
Jeet."
