They argued as "follow.: The imple ments are sold to the dealers through out the country at f. «. b. "factory price. When implements are shippe 1 from San Antonio it has bebn custom ary for the railroad company to ad vance to the transfer house or jobbers the amount of freight charges on the goods from the factory to San Antonio. This order of the railroad commission does away with this privilege. The im plement dealers thyughout the stale have been able to”buy their goods in small quantities front San Antonio without paying any profit on the freight. The effect of the order, it ?s claimed by the petitioners, is to cause the factories to figure their freight in on the voods and the result will be that implements when shipped locally from San Antonio will cost the dealers more than under the old arrangement. If the goods arc going to cost the dealer more to ■ get them shipped from San Antonio, it is argued he is going to get them from the factory, thereby destroy ing the local depot to a large extent. The directors, of the Chamber of Commerce after listening to the argu ments, asked the representatives pres ent to take the petition to the local dealers affected and if they endorsed it as a whole, the Chamber of Com merce would then reconside. it. The directors present were: Fred W. Cook, Charles Craebner. If. L. Haiff, .lake Wolff. J. X. Brown, Hermann Staaeke, J. II. Kirkpatrick and John B Carrington.
